"We do not sell your personal information to third parties.Excerpt from Khan Academy's Privacy Policy
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision directly engages the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which require covered businesses to disclose whether they sell personal information and to honor opt-out requests. The FTC holds general enforcement authority over deceptive data practices. As a nonprofit, Khan Academy's coverage under CCPA depends on whether it meets applicable revenue or data processing thresholds, and compliance teams should evaluate this applicability. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low. The explicit prohibition on data sale is a clear, affirmative commitment. However, compliance teams should verify that data sharing practices with vendors, sponsors, and third-party application providers do not constitute a sale under applicable law definitions, which in some jurisdictions include certain data sharing arrangements that may not be characterized as sales by the company. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California residents have the most directly applicable statutory rights under CCPA/CPRA. Other U.S. states with comprehensive privacy laws (Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas) include similar sale-related rights. EU/EEA users may evaluate this commitment alongside GDPR's lawful basis requirements for processing. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams should verify that vendor agreements with service providers, analytics partners, and AI model providers include data use restrictions consistent with this stated no-sale commitment. The policy does not define what constitutes a sale for this purpose, so vendor DPA language should be reviewed against applicable statutory definitions. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should maintain documentation confirming that all third-party data sharing arrangements are structured as service provider relationships with appropriate contractual restrictions, rather than as data sales or data sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising, to substantiate this stated commitment under applicable law.
