"Geolocation data. We may collect precise geolocation data (i.e., your specific location, as contrasted with your general location) when you use our mobile applications or visit our websites, if you permit us to do so. We may also collect general location information (such as the city or region you are in) from your IP address or other sources.— Excerpt from Home Depot's Home Depot Privacy Policy
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Precise geolocation is classified as sensitive personal information under CPRA, which requires that consumers be given the right to limit the use and disclosure of such data. Several additional state privacy laws including those in Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and Texas also treat precise geolocation as sensitive data requiring heightened consent or opt-in mechanisms. The FTC has taken enforcement actions against companies that collect and share location data without adequate consumer notice. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The policy conditions precise geolocation collection on user permission, which partially mitigates exposure, but the adequacy of the consent interface (opt-in vs. opt-out, clarity of disclosure at point of collection) should be evaluated against each applicable state framework. Sharing precise location data with advertising or analytics partners may require additional disclosures or restrictions. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California (CPRA sensitive data), Colorado (Colorado Privacy Act), Virginia (Consumer Data Protection Act), Washington (My Health MY Data Act for health-related location data), and Illinois create varying levels of heightened obligation. The policy's reference to user permission does not specify whether this constitutes opt-in consent as required by some state laws. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Third-party advertising and analytics partners receiving precise geolocation data must be identified and assessed for compliance with applicable state laws. Data processing agreements should restrict secondary use of location data for purposes beyond those disclosed to consumers. Procurement teams should verify that location data vendors implement data minimization and deletion protocols. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: The policy should clarify whether location data sharing with third parties is subject to opt-out or opt-in requirements in applicable jurisdictions. Consent capture mechanisms in the mobile app should be audited to ensure they meet the specificity required by state privacy laws. A data mapping exercise should document all third parties receiving precise geolocation data and the purposes for which it is used.
