Invasive Steam Account Logger Website Removel Assistance

[MrNCatLover]

Their is a website called steamhistory.net that tracks everything, and I mean everything of your steam account down to your username history, profile pictures and much more. I looked into it and you have to write a few words (and you can’t copy and paste) for each single thing you want to ask them to remove, and they can just say no.

Please checkout this website and help me find a course of action to get my steam account removed off of here, as well as other guides for hiding your Steam accounts prior activity/identities, and if I should just make a new accounts (not worth it, steam games cost a lot).

Sorry, just so I’m clear, this is a website designed to “track” users of some online usernames, but the information is volunteered and entered by said people? And relates solely to usernames?

I don’t wish to sound flippant here, but it may help for others to assist: what is the issue exactly? You gave it the information?

[MrNCatLover]

I apologize for the poorly worded message, it is advice for getting data removed. Because there current way to do it is a lengthy process requiring in depth inclinations on why it is PII for each bit of information you want to remove, witch will not work as I want it removed for the sake of privacy.

[WhyRhy (Rhy)]

I’m really sorry, I still don’t understand. Their ToS state it’s data from publicly available information?

@MrNCatLover

why it is PII for each bit of information you want to remove

Is it identifiable information? I just had a look at randomly listed accounts and appears do be all avatars and public comments.

@MrNCatLover

I want it removed for the sake of privacy

Privacy starts by not revealing personally identifiable information. This site appears to ‘profile’ users of whatever this ‘steam’ thing is using volunteered information.

In my view, you’ll just have to comply with the terms and provide what you believe is ‘PII’. I wouldn’t be able to identify anyone from it but I’m not a user so I don’t know.

Hopefully someone else can provide an insight here as I just don’t understand the issue. Sorry.

If one login to that site with it’s steam community profile it will be indexed and available on the site to see without login.
So, one gives out it’s own data on a choice.
