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.
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.
The updated terms explicitly disclose in the data-sharing table that communication information may be shared with AI providers when you enable AI-powered integrations, providing clearer notice of this practice under privacy laws like CCPA. The corrected privacy contact email ensures users can reliably reach Gusto's privacy team with questions or data requests.
→ Review the AI-powered integrations section if you use or plan to enable AI features to understand what communication data may be shared
→ Contact privacy@gusto.com with questions about your personal information or to submit data access requests
→ If you enable AI-powered integrations without reviewing the disclosure, your communication information will be shared with AI providers as stated in the updated terms
→ If you contact the previous email address in the policy, your privacy request may not be received; the new address is privacy@gusto.com
Updated policy explicitly discloses in the data-sharing table that Communication Information may be shared with AI providers when AI-powered integrations are enabled.
Corrected contact email address to privacy@gusto.com consistently across all sections of the policy.
This change record describes what was added, removed, or modified in the document. Analysis reflects what the updated agreement states or permits. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
The change is primarily editorial and formatting-focused. The only substantive addition is explicit disclosure in the data-sharing table that Communication Information may be shared with AI providers when AI-powered integrations are enabled. This aligns with existing language in the AI-powered integrations section and does not materially expand Gusto's data-sharing practices, but does provide clearer disclosure under applicable privacy frameworks like CCPA. No new compliance obligations are created; the change clarifies existing practices.
CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act), GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) for EU users, as the policy describes data collection, use, and sharing practices subject to these frameworks. The explicit disclosure of AI provider data sharing may be relevant under CCPA's requirement to disclose categories of third parties receiving personal information for business purposes.
