What it is

Groq automatically collects your IP address, browsing history on its sites, how long you use features, what you click on, and details about your device, and uses some of this information for targeted advertising.

This analysis describes what Groq'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 automatic data collection feeds into advertising and analytics systems operated by third parties, meaning your behavior on Groq's websites may be used to target you with ads across the web.

Interpretive note: The adequacy of Groq's consent banner for EU users and the functionality of the California opt-out mechanism cannot be assessed from the policy text alone; compliance depends on implementation details not disclosed in the document.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Your browsing behavior and device identifiers on Groq's websites are collected automatically and shared with third-party advertising and analytics partners, which may result in targeted advertising appearing on other websites you visit based on your Groq activity.

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.
  • Opt Out of Arbitration
    To opt out of targeted advertising data sharing, contact privacy@groq.com and request a Do Not Sell or Share designation. You can also adjust cookie preferences using the consent banner displayed on Groq's websites.
