Provisions Removed
Roundel Retail Media Advertising Network
High

Third-Party Data Sources and Data Brokers
Medium

The removal of explicit data broker sourcing disclosure eliminates transparency about information obtained from commercial data brokers, which is significant for consumer awareness.

Removed clause text available with Compliance. See Compliance β†’

Medium

The removal of Target Circle-specific provisions suggests consolidation into broader 'Loyalty and Partner Program' language, potentially reducing specificity about this primary loyalty program.
