Real estate in general is a nightmare for privacy, especially for renters. You need to give a wealth of personal info about yourself and any references and it all gets sold, no data breaches needed! And your only opt out is don’t rent anywhere. And if you do anything to upset your landlord they’ll kick you out and add you to the blacklist so no other estate agent will consider you
