I asked Kia to delete my personal information. Here is the response:

"Thank you for your email. At this time, under applicable law, privacy requests relating to personal information are not provided to residents in your state. For information on our general business practices regarding the collection, maintenance, and sharing of personal information, please see Kia’s Privacy Policy.

Sincerely,

Kia America"

So, basically, FU. We don't have to, so we aren't going to do it.

You really, really do NOT want to read their privacy policy. Absolutely no respect for your preferences regarding private information that they collect. And, wow, are they aggressive about collecting data on you.

I am pretty sure that Kia is not alone in this type of abuse. We really need better privacy law. With teeth.
