Gusto updated its Privacy Policy on June 28, 2026 with nine sentence-level edits, primarily formatting corrections and contact information updates. The substantive changes include correcting the contact email address from a bracket placeholder to privacy@gusto.com in three locations, fixing spacing errors in several section headers (removing spaces before colons and adding appropriate spacing), and clarifying that Communication Information may be shared with AI providers when AI-powered features are enabled. The operational effect is minor: the policy now explicitly discloses AI provider disclosure practices for AI-powered integrations, and the privacy contact email is properly formatted and consistent across the document.

What this means for you

The updated privacy policy clarifies that when you enable AI-powered integrations through Gusto's platform, your communication information may be shared with artificial intelligence and large language model providers such as OpenAI to enable the features you requested. This disclosure was previously mentioned in the policy but is now more explicitly integrated into the data-sharing disclosure table. The policy also corrects its privacy contact email address to privacy@gusto.com for consistency across all sections. You can opt not to enable AI-powered integrations to avoid this data sharing, or contact privacy@gusto.com if you have questions about how your data is used.

What you can do

Review the AI-powered integrations section if you use or plan to enable AI features to understand what communication data may be shared
