Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Although customers have the right to limit this sharing, the default position is that data is shared with nonaffiliates for marketing unless a customer takes action to restrict it.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium Jun 21, 2026

The updated privacy notice now explicitly discloses that Chime shares customer information with other financial companies for joint marketing purposes, whereas the prior 2017 version stated Chime did not engage in this sharing. This represents a material change in the stated data handling practice. Under the updated terms, customers can limit this sharing by logging into their Chime account at chime.com or through the Chime Mobile application and updating their Privacy Settings.

Medium May 11, 2026

The updated policy no longer explicitly discloses whether Chime or its banking partner The Bancorp shares personal information for specific purposes such as marketing, joint marketing, or affiliate use. Previously, each sharing scenario included a 'Yes' or 'No' answer and stated whether customers could limit sharing. The revised policy directs users to login to chime.com or the Chime Mobile application and update their Privacy Settings to control sharing. You can adjust sharing preferences through your account settings, but the policy no longer itemizes which sharing practices are subject to customer limits.

Medium Apr 20, 2026

The updated notice states Chime no longer shares your personal information (such as transaction history and creditworthiness) with other financial companies for joint marketing purposes. This is a narrowing of third-party data sharing compared to the prior language. The notice also clarifies that Chime does not share certain affiliate information, which may further limit how your data is used by related companies. These changes reduce the scope of data sharing disclosed in the privacy notice.
