Summary

Arlo's terms cover two main things: you can sign up for Arlo's promotional emails, and the site uses Google's reCAPTCHA, which means Google's own rules also apply when you use the site. That second point is notable because it brings in a separate company's legal terms without requiring you to separately agree to them.

Analysis

This document establishes two distinct provisions governing user interactions with Arlo's platform. First, Arlo offers users an opt-in mechanism to receive marketing emails in exchange for exclusive promotions, constituting a data collection arrangement. Second, Arlo's site is protected by Google's reCAPTCHA service, which subjects users to Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service as a condition of using the site. Together, these provisions define a limited set of obligations and third-party legal exposures for users of the Arlo platform.

What this means for you

As an Arlo user, you are subject to Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service simply by using Arlo's site, due to its use of Google reCAPTCHA — regardless of whether you have separately agreed to Google's terms. Additionally, if you choose to provide your email address to receive promotions, you are opting into Arlo's marketing email channel. One concrete action available to you: you can choose not to sign up for Arlo's promotional emails to avoid entering that marketing communication arrangement.
