Event Summary

SoFi updated its Privacy Notice on May 14, 2026 to revise how it describes cookie and tracking technology usage. The previous version stated the company uses pixels and tracking technologies to enhance navigation, personalize content, and assist marketing efforts, and that it shares this information with social media, advertising, and analytics partners. The updated version introduces a Privacy Preference Center that explains cookies in general terms and emphasizes user choice to allow or block different cookie types, though it notes that blocking some cookies may impact site functionality.

LOW

Consumer Impact

The updated privacy notice now includes a Privacy Preference Center that explains how cookies and tracking technologies work and allows users to enable or disable different cookie categories. The revised language describes that blocking certain types of cookies may impact site experience and available services. You can use the Privacy Preference Center to choose which cookie categories to allow or block.

Governance Analysis

The updated notice establishes explicit user controls over cookie categories through a Privacy Preference Center, replacing prior language that treated non-selection as consent. This change affects how users can manage tracking technologies and aligns SoFi's consent practices with GDPR and CCPA requirements for affirmative consent mechanisms.

Available Actions
