AI and Machine Learning Model Training Using Customer Data

High severity
Share 𝕏 Share in Share

Why it matters

Using customer financial and behavioral data to train AI systems without a clear opt-out is an emerging area of regulatory concern and may constitute secondary processing beyond what users reasonably expect when signing up for a payments app.

Consumer impact

Cash App collects an exceptionally broad range of personal data including biometric facial scans, Social Security numbers, precise geolocation, and full financial account information, and uses this data to build behavioral and credit risk profiles — including by purchasing supplementary data from third-party data brokers. Your data is also explicitly used to train AI and machine learning models, and is shared with affiliates, credit bureaus, fraud detection partners, merchants, and advertising platforms. You can limit some data collection by disabling precise location access and contact list permissions in your device settings, and California residents can submit a data deletion or opt-out request via Cash App's in-app privacy settings.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Visit Cash App's Privacy Notice page and use the 'Your Rights and Choices' section to submit a data use restriction or deletion request. California residents may also have the right to limit sensitive data processing under CPRA via in-app settings.

Applicable agencies
