Interpretive note: The excerpt consists only of a table row fragment ('For nonaffiliates to market to you Yes Yes') without column headers. The interpretation that the two 'Yes' values mean (1) Affirm does this sharing and (2) users can opt out is standard for GLBA privacy notice table formatting, but the column headers are absent from the excerpt, making this an inference from context rather than fully explicit document language.
The updated policy explicitly discloses that Affirm collects cart contents, product details, pricing, and page URLs when you use its browser extension or in-app browser to visit merchant websites. This represents a material expansion of the prior disclosure, which only mentioned collecting website domain. The policy states this information is used to provide and improve extension features, provide personalized experiences, and support related services. You can limit collection by disabling the extension in browser settings, uninstalling it, hiding it, or choosing not to use the in-app browser for merchant browsing where an alternative is available.
