Just like the ending of a horror movie, Circuit City has gone and plunged its soil-covered claw from its grave. Its site may have new owners, but that doesn’t mean it’s lost all of your tasty personal info.

If you’d like this zombie retailer to forget it ever knew you during its previous life, now is the time to ask it to purge your email address from its mailing list at this policy description page.
