Impact Summary

High Negative for users
Affected users
All users Website visitors

Zelle completely restructured their website privacy policy from marketing content to a formal legal notice. The old page focused on how to use Zelle for payments; the new page is a binding privacy notice that describes what personal information the company collects from website visitors, how it uses that data, and what rights you have. By visiting zelle.com, you now expressly consent to these practices, and the company states you should not use the site if you disagree.

1 new obligation

Consumers: You must agree to let Zelle collect and use your data when you visit their website, or you should not visit.

What this means for you

Zelle's website now operates under a binding privacy notice that requires you to expressly consent to the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information as a condition of visiting the site. The policy states that by using the website, you consent to these practices, and you should not use the site if you disagree. This represents a shift from marketing content to enforceable legal terms that govern what data is collected from website visitors and how it may be used. You can review the full privacy notice in the footer of zelle.com pages or request a copy via email at zelleprivacy@earlywarning.com to understand what specific data practices apply to your visit.

What you can do

Review the full privacy notice available in the footer of zelle.com or request a copy via zelleprivacy@earlywarning.com before deciding whether to visit or use the website.
