What it is

Gemini shares your personal information with advertising and analytics companies, which may use it to target you with ads or analyze your behavior.

This analysis describes what Gemini'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)

Sharing personal data with advertising partners means your activity on Gemini may be used to build advertising profiles, and depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to opt out of this.

Interpretive note: The policy does not enumerate specific advertising and analytics vendors or the precise data categories shared with them, creating uncertainty about the full scope of this provision.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Your browsing behavior, device identifiers, and potentially transaction-related data may be shared with third-party advertising and analytics vendors, which could result in targeted advertising based on your financial activity. Under GLBA, sharing with non-affiliated third parties for marketing purposes may be subject to an opt-out right.

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.

— Excerpt from Gemini's Gemini Privacy Policy

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Data sharing with advertising partners engages GLBA's opt-out requirement for sharing with non-affiliated third parties for marketing purposes (Regulation P), FTC Section 5, CCPA/CPRA's right to opt out of sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and GDPR's consent requirements for non-essential processing. The page source code indicates Google Tag Manager and consent management infrastructure, suggesting active third-party data flows. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The policy discloses sharing with advertising and analytics partners but does not enumerate which specific partners receive which data categories, which limits consumer ability to exercise informed opt-out rights and creates potential exposure under CCPA's 'sale' or 'sharing' definitions for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: California residents have CPRA opt-out rights for sharing personal data with advertising partners for cross-context behavioral advertising even if no money changes hands. EU and UK users require explicit consent for non-essential tracking and advertising under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive. The consent management code visible in the page source reflects differentiated treatment of EEA/UK users (opt-in) versus US users (opt-out). (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Advertising and analytics vendors receiving personal data from Gemini should be subject to data processing agreements that restrict onward use, particularly for financial data that may be subject to GLBA restrictions. The adequacy of these agreements for GDPR purposes should be confirmed for any EU user data flows. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should conduct a data mapping exercise to identify all advertising and analytics vendors receiving personal data, the categories of data shared, and the legal basis for each sharing relationship. The cookie consent mechanism should be audited to confirm it accurately reflects and controls the actual data flows to third-party advertising partners.
