i don't know if **** demand letter is okay or not
Hey there! I'd be happy to help. Could you share a bit about the context of your demand letter? For example, the type of dispute and any key points you included. This will help me give you more specific advice.
Sure its a demand letter to a website called Athletic.net whom has **** PII on their website. When I was a minor during high school I played sports and it seems as though **** coach disclosed directory information without **** consent. I have attempted to remove the records on **** own through the process their terms and conditions has stated but the customer support said that the account link I gave and the email I was contacting them from had no match. I asked if claiming **** profile would allow me to erase **** data but they ignored **** message and **** follow up.
It sounds like you have a valid concern regarding the handling of your PII. Here are a few key points to include in your demand letter:
- Explicitly state that you were a minor when the information was disclosed.
- Reference the specific terms and conditions of the website that you followed.
- Cite California privacy laws (e.g., CCPA) that protect your PII.
- Request immediate removal of your data and a confirmation once done.
- Mention any previous attempts of communication and lack of response.
Have you considered contacting the California Attorney General's Office for further assistance?
- Explicitly state that you were a minor when the information was disclosed.

Well this was the first part I had: Dear Athletic.net,
I am writing to formally demand the immediate erasure of all personally identifiable information (PII) associated with me from the Athletic.net platform and any affiliated accounts. If complete erasure is not feasible, I demand that all such data be fully anonymized so that it cannot be linked to **** identity.
During **** time as a minor, profiles were created on your platform by **** schools, San Marino High School [and Huntington Middle School], without **** knowledge or consent. The continued publication of this data violates the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and California Business and Professions Code § *.
Under California privacy laws, I have the right to request the deletion of **** personal data. Your continued publication of profiles tied to **** identity, despite valid prior deletion requests, constitutes negligence and directly endangers **** privacy and safety.
Your demand letter is well-structured and addresses key concerns effectively. Here are a couple of suggestions:
*. Include a reference to the specific terms and conditions of the website that you followed.
*. Emphasize any previous attempts of communication and lack of response.

so something like this: I have followed the guidelines outlined in Athletic.net's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy regarding the removal of User Content. I submitted **** California Removal Request in accordance with your specified procedures, providing a clear description of the content in question and ample information to help locate it. Despite **** efforts, including multiple follow-up communications to seek clarification and resolution, I have not received a satisfactory response. And no because I'm pretty sure its better to have exhausted all attempts before requesting Ca attorney General
Your demand letter is thorough and well-crafted. Here's an additional suggestion to strengthen it:
- Mention that you have exhausted all attempts to resolve this directly with Athletic.net, including multiple follow-up communications.
It seems you have a solid case. Have you considered consulting with a privacy lawyer to explore further legal steps?
- Mention that you have exhausted all attempts to resolve this directly with Athletic.net, including multiple follow-up communications.
