This analysis describes what Databricks'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
Databricks commits to remedial deletion when underage data collection is discovered, but the obligation is triggered only upon discovery and is to take steps toward deletion rather than guaranteeing immediate complete deletion.
Interpretive note: The obligation is to 'take steps to delete'—not to guarantee complete deletion—but this is preserved in the claim as stated.
If Databricks learns it has collected personal information from a child under the applicable consent age, it will take steps to delete that information.
