Stash updated its privacy policy effective March 28, 2026, expanding the scope of personal data it collects and clarifies how that data is used. The policy now explicitly includes collection of driver's license numbers, geolocation data, commercial information, internet activity, audio/video recordings of customer service calls, and inferences drawn from personal data to create behavioral profiles. The policy also broadens the definition of "Stash" to include third parties acting on the company's behalf, expands the user scope beyond customers to "any other users of our Services," and adds a commitment to maintain anonymized data in deidentified form.

Consumers: Your data may now be shared with third-party service providers that work on Stash's behalf, not just Stash and its direct affiliates.

Data controllers: The privacy policy now covers anyone who uses Stash services, including visitors and other users beyond just paying customers.
