It also eliminates the documented right to opt-out before data is shared with third parties or used for purposes beyond the original collection.

Under the revised policy, users who have unresolved privacy concerns may invoke binding arbitration through TrustArc, but they no longer have contractually documented access to data correction, deletion, opt-out, or use-limitation mechanisms.
