Change Summary
Gusto's updated privacy policy adds explicit language describing how the company sells or shares personal information under U.S. state privacy laws. The policy defines 'sale' to include providing personal information to third parties for valuable consideration (not limited to money), and 'share' to include providing information for cross-context behavioral advertising. The company states it engages in these practices when disclosing identifiers and internet/electronic usage data to business, advertising, and technology partners.
