Data brokers that operate in California must register with the California Privacy Protection Agency and answer the same questions. Each chart counts those published answers. Brokers report them themselves, and every chart page explains its method.
Each chart page has the full table and a CSV download. We rebuild every chart from the registry file itself, pinned to the exact version we read.
