Wealthfront's privacy policy now includes a new section describing how the company shares personal information when users direct or authorize it. The policy states that when users connect their Wealthfront account to third-party apps, Wealthfront may share personal information with those recipients, who are not subject to Wealthfront's privacy commitments and operate under their own terms and privacy policies. Users can review and revoke third-party app access in their account settings at any time, though revocation applies only to future sharing and does not affect information the recipient has already received.
The updated policy establishes a new disclosure explaining how Wealthfront shares personal information when users authorize connections to third-party apps. The policy states that these third-party recipients are not Wealthfront service providers and operate under their own privacy terms, not Wealthfront's commitments. Users can review and revoke third-party app access at any time through their account settings; however, revocation prevents future sharing but does not affect information the recipient has already received. You can manage third-party app connections in your Wealthfront account settings.
→ Review third-party app connections in your Wealthfront account settings to identify which apps currently have access.
→ Revoke access to any third-party app you no longer wish to use by adjusting permissions in account settings.
Policy now explicitly discloses that third-party app recipients are not subject to Wealthfront's privacy commitments and operate under their own terms.
Policy clarifies that revoking third-party app access stops future sharing but does not affect information the recipient has already received.
