Nextdoor removed a link to 'Do not Sell or Share My Personal Data' from their privacy policy footer on July 7, 2026. This link previously appeared in the document's navigation section alongside other legal and privacy resources. The removal means users can no longer access that specific disclosure or opt-out mechanism directly from the footer.
The updated footer no longer includes a direct link to the 'Do not Sell or Share My Personal Data' disclosure or control. Under California law and other US privacy regimes, platforms are required to provide clear and conspicuous access to consumer data sale opt-out mechanisms. If this link was the primary or most accessible pathway to that opt-out, its removal may complicate how users exercise statutory rights, though the underlying disclosure or control may remain available through other parts of the platform. Users should verify whether this opt-out functionality remains accessible through the main privacy policy page or account settings.
The removal of a prominent navigation link to the 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Data' disclosure affects how users discover and exercise statutory consumer privacy rights under CCPA and CPRA. If this link represented the primary or most accessible pathway to opt-out, its removal may complicate user access to controls that state law requires remain clear and conspicuous. Regulatory compliance depends on whether the opt-out has been relocated to an equally discoverable location.
→ Check Nextdoor's main privacy policy page to locate the 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Data' control.
→ Review account privacy settings to confirm opt-out functionality remains available.
→ If the opt-out is not accessible from either location, contact Nextdoor support to request the mechanism or file a complaint with your state attorney general's office.
→ Users may be unable to locate and exercise their California statutory right to opt out of data sales if no alternative access point is available.
→ If the underlying opt-out mechanism was deleted rather than relocated, Nextdoor's failure to maintain clear opt-out access may violate CCPA/CPRA requirements.

Nextdoor removed the 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Data' footer link on July 7, 2026. This change may trigger compliance review under CCPA and CPRA, which require that opt-out mechanisms remain clear and conspicuous. The legality of this change depends on whether the opt-out remains accessible through other prominent channels (main privacy policy, account settings) and whether removal constitutes a material obstruction of statutory rights. Organizations processing California residents' data should verify their own vendor compliance and may need to confirm with Nextdoor that the opt-out remains accessible via alternative navigation. No affirmative action is likely required if the underlying mechanism persists, but documentation of where the opt-out has been relocated is advisable.
CCPA, CPRA (requirement for clear and conspicuous opt-out mechanism); potentially FTC Act Section 5 (unfair or deceptive practice if removal obscures statutory rights).
