Intuit expanded its privacy policy to add explicit cookie consent management controls and disclosure language. The updated policy describes how cookies and tracking technologies are used for website functionality and advertising, introduces a 'Customize Settings' opt-out option for third-party advertising cookies, and explains that certain cookies cannot be declined because they are necessary for the website to function. Users can now adjust their cookie preferences through a consent preference panel, though any opt-out choice will need to be renewed if they use a different device, browser, or clear their cookies.

2 new obligations 1 obligation expanded

Consumers: Intuit now clearly explains what cookies do and why it uses them.

Consumers: Users can now decline advertising cookies, though they must reselect this choice on new devices or after clearing cookies.
