Interpretive note: The excerpt uses 'for example,' indicating the listed actions are illustrative, not exhaustive. The full scope of administrator control may be broader than stated in the canonical claim, which reflects only the primary proposition.
The updated terms establish new dispute resolution procedures for EU, UK, and Swiss residents whose personal data is transferred under the Data Privacy Framework. The revised language states that Intuit and Mailchimp have certified compliance with DPF Principles and commits to resolve DPF-related complaints through direct contact, alternative dispute resolution via TRUSTe, and binding arbitration for unresolved complaints. The terms also clarify that when personal data is used for a materially different purpose or shared with external parties not covered by the privacy policy, Mailchimp will offer an opt-out opportunity or collect opt-in consent before proceeding. You can file a complaint with TRUSTe at https://feedback-form.trustarc.com/watchdog/request if your complaint is not resolved by Mailchimp directly.
