What it is

Fireworks AI buys personal data — like your name and address — from data brokers and combines it with information it already has about you, to send you marketing mail.

This analysis describes what Fireworks AI'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)

This practice means your personal data may be in Fireworks' systems even if you never signed up for their service, and it stands in stark contrast to their strong AI data protection commitments — creating a notable asymmetry in their data practices.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Fireworks AI may have your name and mailing address from a data broker without you ever having interacted with the company, and may use this to send you marketing mail — California residents and EU residents have rights to opt out of or object to this use of their data.

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.
  • Delete Your Data
    Email privacy@fireworks.ai to request deletion of any personal data Fireworks obtained from third-party data brokers and to opt out of direct mail marketing. California residents may invoke their CCPA right to opt-out of sale/sharing.
