What it is

Cisco uses cookies and tracking tools from itself and third-party partners on the Duo website to track your browsing behavior, which pages you visit, and how long you spend on them, and uses that data for analytics and advertising.

This analysis describes what Duo Security'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

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Third-party tracking on the Duo website means your browsing behavior may be shared with advertising and analytics partners outside of Cisco, and you may be tracked across websites if third-party cookies are in use.

Interpretive note: The policy does not enumerate specific third-party tracking partners or distinguish between essential and non-essential cookies, limiting the ability to assess the full scope of data sharing through tracking technologies.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Your browsing activity on duo.com, including pages visited and links clicked, may be shared with third-party analytics and advertising partners through cookies and tracking pixels placed on the site.

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
    Use the cookie consent management tool available on the Duo website to review and adjust your cookie and tracking preferences, opting out of non-essential cookies.

— Excerpt from Duo Security's Duo Privacy

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The EU ePrivacy Directive, implemented through national laws in EU member states, requires prior informed consent for non-essential cookies and tracking technologies for EU users. GDPR applies to any personal data collected through tracking technologies. The UK's Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations impose similar consent requirements for UK users. The FTC has issued guidance on online tracking and third-party data sharing relevant to US users. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The use of third-party tracking pixels and advertising cookies on a B2B security vendor's website is notable because visitors may include enterprise IT administrators and security professionals whose browsing behavior could be shared with advertising networks. The adequacy of cookie consent mechanisms on duo.com would need to be verified against applicable ePrivacy requirements. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users are entitled to granular consent choices for non-essential cookies under ePrivacy rules. California residents have rights under CPRA regarding the sharing of personal information through cross-context behavioral advertising. Organizations in sectors with heightened confidentiality expectations, such as healthcare or government, should assess whether employee visits to vendor websites via corporate devices implicate internal privacy policies. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise procurement teams evaluating Duo should assess whether the third-party tracking on the Cisco website involves sharing of any user data associated with enterprise accounts or visitor sessions with advertising networks. This is distinct from authentication data but may affect enterprise data governance policies for corporate device usage. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should verify that the cookie consent mechanism on duo.com meets current ePrivacy and GDPR requirements for EU users, including whether implied consent is used or whether explicit opt-in is required for advertising cookies. Organizations should review their own acceptable use policies regarding corporate device access to vendor websites with third-party trackers.
