What it is

GOAT operates globally and transfers your personal data to the United States and other countries, which may not have the same privacy protections as your home country.

This analysis describes what GOAT'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)

If you are based in the EU, UK, or other regions with strong privacy laws, your data may be transferred to countries with weaker protections, which increases the risk that your data is accessed by third parties or government authorities.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

EU and UK users' personal data is transferred to the US-based GOAT entity and to US-based advertising and analytics vendors, meaning it is subject to US government access authorities including FISA Section 702, which is a key concern under GDPR's cross-border transfer rules.
