What? If I sign up for a new credit card I won't come across the interest rate at all until I get to the fine-print legal contract. Sure, maybe it's in bold or something there, but it's still not upfront and obvious in the signup flow like the perks are. Similarly, the ways in which a site will use your data is hidden within the thousands of words of fine print in their privacy policy. Seems exactly the same to me.
