Amendments to the PayPal Privacy Statement Effective November 27, 2024:
We are updating our Privacy Statement to explain how, starting early Summer 2025, we will share information to help improve your shopping experience and make it more personalized for you. The key update to the Privacy Statement explains how we will share information with merchants to personalize your shopping experience and recommend our services to you. Personal information we disclose includes, for example, products, preferences, sizes, and styles we think you’ll like. Information gathered about you after the effective date of our updated Privacy Statement, November 27, 2024, will be shared with participating stores where you shop, unless you live in California, North Dakota, or Vermont. For PayPal customers in California, North Dakota, or Vermont, we’ll only share your information with those merchants if you tell us to do so. No matter where you live, you’ll always be able to exercise your right to opt out of this data sharing by updating your preference settings in your account under “Data and Privacy.”
That thing which makes Meta and Apple so scared they do not release their new products in AI anymore in the EU to pressure us to loosen up the laws. That has already been costly to these companies.
That prevents Paypal from doing this change in the EU.
The law that has been awesome so far.
Yeah, critics don’t realise that headlines like that don’t phase me at all since GDPR.
Clicking on “deny all” is well worth the positives. I think there’s even add ons that do it for you.
Consent-o-Matic will deal with that shit automatically. Or, if you’re fine with being stalked online, there’s the “I don’t care about cookies” addon that only clicks the “allow all” buttons.
