Most people have no idea Cloudflare is collecting their data, because they interact with the website they're visiting, not with Cloudflare directly — yet Cloudflare still processes their personal information.
Cloudflare's policy means your personal data, including IP address, device identifiers, and browsing behavior, may be collected both when you directly use Cloudflare services and when you visit third-party websites that use Cloudflare's network infrastructure, often without your direct awareness. The policy authorizes use of this data for security, analytics, and marketing purposes, and permits sharing with service providers, partners, and in response to legal requests. You can submit a data access, deletion, or opt-out request through Cloudflare's privacy rights portal at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacyrequest/.
