Impact Summary

Medium Negative for users
Affected users
All users US users California residents

Intuit removed detailed cookie consent and opt-out language from its privacy statement, including specific disclosures about third-party advertising cookies, tracking technologies, and user choice mechanisms. The updated version replaced this section with trademark and payment processor disclosures and a simplified cookie management header. The practical effect is that users no longer see the previously detailed explanations of how cookies are used for advertising or the step-by-step opt-out instructions that were previously available.

1 protection removed

Consumers: Users no longer see detailed explanations of how their data is shared for advertising or explicit instructions for declining such practices in the privacy statement itself.

What this means for you

The updated privacy statement removed explicit disclosures about how Intuit uses cookies and tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertising, and removed step-by-step instructions for opting out of these practices. Previously, the statement detailed that users could opt out by clicking 'Decline' and explained that opt-outs would need renewal across devices or browsers. The revised language replaces these disclosures with a simplified 'Manage cookies' link and no longer explicitly describes the advertising sharing practices or renewal requirements. Under applicable privacy laws like CCPA, disclosure of targeted advertising practices may remain required; the practical implication is that users now have less explicit guidance about where and how to exercise opt-out choices related to advertising cookies.
