Best Buy's website links to outside websites that have their own separate privacy policies — Best Buy is not responsible for how those third-party sites handle your data once you leave BestBuy.com.
This analysis describes what Best Buy's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

"Our websites and applications may contain links to third-party websites, applications, and services that are not operated by Best Buy. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's website. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.— Excerpt from Best Buy's Best Buy Privacy Policy
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Disclaimer of responsibility for third-party links implicates FTC Act Section 5 standards for deceptive omissions if Best Buy's integration with third-party services is so close that consumers would reasonably assume Best Buy's policy applies. GDPR Art. 26 (joint controller obligations) and Art. 28 (processor obligations) may apply where third-party services are deeply integrated (e.g., embedded advertising pixels). CFPB guidance on digital marketing and dark patterns is relevant where third-party links appear in financial services contexts.
