Chime updated its privacy notice on June 21, 2026, with a version change from 08/2017 to 06/2026. The updated notice includes reorganized sharing tables that now separately detail reasons Chime shares customer information, explicit clarification that Chime shares information for joint marketing with other financial companies (previously listed as 'No We don't share'), and reformatted disclosure sections. The most material operational change is the shift in how joint marketing sharing is disclosed: the prior version stated Chime does not share for joint marketing, while the updated version indicates Chime does authorize this sharing, though customers retain the ability to limit it.

1 new obligation

Consumers: Customers are now told that their financial information may be shared with other banks and companies for marketing purposes, and they can opt out through their account settings.
