Robinhood updated its Privacy Policy effective August 18, 2026 to reflect new capabilities around agentic trading and external AI agents. The revised language now explicitly states that the company collects information about user activity 'whether directly or through an external artificial intelligence (AI) agent' and clarifies that users may connect third-party AI agents to their accounts alongside traditional services like Google or Apple. The policy added a reference directing users to the Customer Agreement for details on agentic trading and external AI agents. Additionally, Robinhood Ventures Fund II was added to the list of entities whose GLBA-financial privacy notices are available, and a reference number was updated.
Consumers: The privacy policy now discloses that Robinhood collects the same activity data (IP address, device identifiers, usage logs) whether you log in yourself or use an external AI agent to access your account.
The updated terms expand the Privacy Policy to explicitly cover data collection when users access their Robinhood accounts through external AI agents or use agentic trading features. Previously, the policy described data collection 'when you use our Services' without explicitly mentioning AI agent intermediaries. The revised language clarifies that device identifiers, activity logs, and connected service information are collected whether users interact directly or through an AI agent. The policy directs users to the Customer Agreement for complete details on how agentic trading and external AI agents work with their accounts.
→ Review the referenced Customer Agreement for details on how agentic trading and external AI agents interact with your account and data.
→ Review Robinhood's GLBA-financial privacy notices if you hold accounts in any of the listed Robinhood Financial Entities.
Policy now explicitly states data is collected 'whether directly or through an external artificial intelligence (AI) agent', covering device identifiers, usage logs, and activity information.
Users may now link third-party AI agents to accounts (listed alongside Google and Apple), and profile information from those agents may be transmitted to Robinhood.
