Gusto updated contact email addresses in its privacy policy and related terms. The company replaced several branded email addresses (legal-opt-outs@gusto.com and support@gusto.com) with a generic inbox address ([email protected]). This appears to be an administrative change to consolidate email routing, and does not alter the substance of privacy rights, data handling, or user obligations.

Users should update any saved contact information and note the new email address when contacting Gusto for these purposes.
