The updated policy now explicitly discloses that HubSpot collects Email Engagement Data (such as open, delivery, bounce, and click statuses) from emails sent through its Subscription Services using embedded tracking technologies. This represents formalization of a data collection practice into explicit policy language. However, the policy simultaneously removed a previously stated sentence directing users to a form for removing their personal data from HubSpot's commercial dataset. The updated terms do not indicate an alternative removal mechanism.

your credit card or other payment information is collected and processed by our third-party payment processors...the payment information that you provide through the Services is transmitted directly to our payment processor.
If a payment is not successfully processed, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated.
You also authorize us to retry any failed authorizations. We may use data provided to us by our partners to determine when to schedule such retries.
