Sales Of Public Data To Marketers Can Mean Big $$ For Governments

“Spokesperson Andrew Cole confirms the Secretary of State sells business information for monetary amounts ranging from $200 to $12,000, depending on frequency and amount of information requested.  The Secretary of State also sold voter registration information — including names, addresses and political party affiliation of voters — for $58,000, last year.  The Denver Clerk and Recorder made $32,000 last year selling home sale data.  It happens in college, too. The University of Colorado Boulder buys names from the SAT for 33 cents each and names from the ACT for 34 cents each. CU sells student information to private meal plans and storage companies for $15,000 a year.”
