Broad Affiliate and Third-Party Data Sharing

Why it matters

The breadth of data sharing — spanning financial affiliates, credit bureaus, merchants, and advertising partners — means your sensitive financial and behavioral data travels far beyond Cash App itself, increasing exposure to data breaches, unauthorized use, and regulatory liability.

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.
  • Export Your Data
    Submit a data access request via the 'Your Rights and Choices' section of Cash App's Privacy Notice to obtain a list of categories of third parties with whom your data has been shared. California residents have specific CPRA rights to this information.
