Coursera added a 'Do Not Sell/Share' link to its website footer on May 11, 2026. Previously, the footer contained links to Terms, Privacy, Help, and other resources, but did not include a 'Do Not Sell/Share' option. This addition provides users with a visible link to manage data sale and sharing preferences, consistent with state privacy law requirements under frameworks like the California Consumer Privacy Act.
The updated footer now includes a 'Do Not Sell/Share' link, providing users with direct access to manage whether their personal information is sold or shared with third parties. This link establishes a visible, easily accessible mechanism for exercising data privacy rights under state consumer privacy laws. You can click the 'Do Not Sell/Share' link in the footer to review and modify your data sharing preferences.

Coursera added a 'Do Not Sell/Share' footer link on May 11, 2026, which appears designed to comply with state consumer privacy statutes that require conspicuous opt-out mechanisms for data sales and sharing. This is a procedural disclosure change rather than a substantive modification to data handling practices. Organizations using Coursera as a vendor should confirm whether this link provides meaningful opt-out functionality and whether Coursera's privacy notice and data-sharing practices align with applicable state privacy law requirements. No immediate escalation appears necessary unless the organization has specific CCPA, CPRA, or similar compliance obligations that require vendor assessment.
