ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Default opt-in means users are subject to targeted advertising unless they take affirmative action to opt out, shifting the burden of choice onto the user.

Interpretive note: The qualifier 'where allowed under applicable law' limits the practice geographically or jurisdictionally but the excerpt does not specify which laws or jurisdictions apply.
