Event Summary

Verizon updated its privacy policy on July 2, 2026 to reflect changes in its service portfolio and clarify opt-out procedures. The policy now explicitly includes Visible as part of Verizon Value brands, adds Frontier Internet to its network monitoring disclosures alongside Fios, and revises step-by-step opt-out instructions for both Fios and TV advertising preferences. Several instances of 'your information' were changed to 'information' in marketing-related sections, which narrows the specific reference to customer data in those contexts.

LOW

Consumer Impact

The updated policy now explicitly states that Visible is included within the scope of this privacy policy, whereas previously it was mentioned separately. Verizon also clarifies that it monitors Frontier Internet Wi-Fi networks in addition to Fios Internet. The revised language provides more detailed step-by-step instructions for Fios Internet and TV customers to access opt-out controls within their My Verizon accounts. These changes do not expand data collection or restrict consumer rights; they primarily clarify scope and improve procedural transparency.

Governance Analysis

These changes reflect Verizon's evolving service portfolio and clarify which customer groups are covered by this privacy policy. The addition of Frontier Internet and explicit inclusion of Visible ensures that customers of these services understand how their data is handled. Updated opt-out procedures help customers navigate actual interface controls to limit ad targeting, though no new restrictions or authorities are imposed.

Available Actions

Visible customers can verify that this privacy policy now applies to their accounts

Fios and TV customers can use the updated steps to access opt-out controls via My Verizon account for advertising preferences

If No Action Is Taken

Institutional Analysis

Assessment

This update reflects portfolio changes (explicit inclusion of Visible) and service expansion (addition of Frontier Internet properties following acquisition or partnership). The revised opt-out procedures suggest changes to the My Verizon interface navigation. No new data collection, sharing, or retention authorities are asserted. Compliance teams should verify that actual system interfaces match the updated instructions and that Visible customers receive this revised policy notice. No material regulatory exposure is created.
