We also added information for healthcare workers with National Provider Index (NPI) numbers, who may now use a PO Box instead of a home address. We also added some contextual information about Verecor/Vericora. Please send corrections or updates to [yael@yaelwrites.com](mailto:yael@yaelwrites.com), or file a pull request. (You can find other ways to contact me [here](https://yaelwrites.com/contact)). Screenshots in emails are incredibly helpful. I add opt-out info only if users can verify that the data broker has their information before sharing additional data, and where removal is not limited to local laws like GDPR, CCPA, etc.
