A privacy policy does not mean anything. It is not a contract between you and the company, it is not a service level agreement, there is no penalty if it is violated. At worst you may have a violation of some sort of truth in advertising law if the company does not follow it's privacy policy.
At the end of the day it comes down to what the company actually does vs what they say they do.
- autoexec 4y agoThat's the truth. It's good to keep an eye on what they'll admit to if nothing else. It'll likely take a whistleblower for people to know what a company actually does with their data, although if we're lucky we might learn something by chance from evidence presented in an unrelated lawsuit. What we really need are meaningful regulations.
- JohnFen 4y agoThis. Also, almost every privacy policy I've ever read has enough holes to drive a convoy of trucks through anyway. I believe privacy policies are worthless, and ignore them.
