Why it matters

Users have no meaningful ability to opt out of cookies without losing access to the service, which limits their control over data collection.

Consumer impact

Hugging Face collects a broad range of personal data including account details, payment information, IP addresses, and behavioral usage data, which it uses to operate the platform, conduct research, and communicate with users. The company may share your data with affiliates, third-party service providers, and government authorities, and retains the right to transfer data internationally. You can request access, correction, deletion, or portability of your personal data by emailing privacy@huggingface.co.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC may assess whether mandatory cookie acceptance as a condition of service constitutes an unfair practice under Section 5 of the FTC Act.
