Privacy Policy
Ookla removed the explicit 'Right to Withdraw Consent' section from the list of privacy rights in its privacy policy. No replacement right or alternative process is mentioned in its place.
You're no longer told you can withdraw consent
Previously, Ookla's policy clearly stated you could withdraw any consent you gave for processing your personal data, at any time. That statement is now gone, with no replacement right added. This doesn't necessarily mean Ookla will ignore withdrawal requests, but removing this explicit promise makes it less clear what rights you have if you want to take back permission you previously gave them to use your data.
“Right to Withdraw Consent: Where you are requested to consent to the processing of your personal information by IeL, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.”
What you can do — If you previously gave Ookla consent for any data processing and want to revoke it, email privacy@ookla.com or use the Privacy Portal (https://dsar.ookla.com/) directly, since this right is no longer spelled out in the policy.
