ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Personal information does reach advertising partners, but AWS limits what is shared by substituting indirect identifiers for directly identifying details such as name.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users' personal information is shared with advertising partners, though AWS excludes names and direct identifiers and uses indirect identifiers instead.
