Gusto updated its privacy policy in an update detected on July 18, 2026 to consolidate privacy request submission channels. The policy previously directed users to separate privacy portals for Gusto and Gusto Retirement services; the updated language now permits users to submit privacy requests through either the main Gusto Privacy Request Portal or the Gusto Retirement Privacy Request Portal from a single entry point. Additionally, the policy simplified language describing where the 'Your Privacy Choices' link appears, removing specific mention of the Gusto Retirement website as a separate location. The net effect is that privacy rights exercise procedures now reference unified submission options rather than service-specific portals.
The updated policy clarifies how users can exercise privacy rights across Gusto's service suite. Previously, the policy referenced separate privacy request portals for Gusto and Gusto Retirement; the revised language now states users may submit privacy requests through either portal for any privacy right exercise, appeals, or general privacy inquiries. This consolidation simplifies the request submission process by reducing the number of entry points users need to navigate to exercise rights under state privacy laws.
The updated terms establish a simpler, consolidated pathway for users to exercise privacy rights across Gusto's service offerings. Previously, the policy listed separate portals as distinct options; the revised language now treats both portals as interchangeable entry points for any privacy rights request, appeals, or inquiries. This reduces friction in accessing privacy-related mechanisms and clarifies that users need not navigate separate service-specific portals.
→ Use either the Gusto Privacy Request Portal or Gusto Retirement Privacy Request Portal to submit privacy rights requests, whichever is most convenient.
Users may now submit privacy rights requests through either the Gusto Privacy Request Portal or Gusto Retirement Privacy Request Portal for all request types.
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
This change is a procedural clarification with minimal compliance exposure. The policy now permits submission through either the main Gusto Privacy Request Portal or the Gusto Retirement Privacy Request Portal for all privacy rights requests, appeals, and general inquiries. This does not change Gusto's substantive obligations under CCPA, CPRA, or state privacy laws; it only simplifies the stated mechanism for receiving and processing requests. No new obligations are created.
