This clause creates an operational procedure for privacy-related communications, establishing how the entity receives and processes user privacy inquiries and rights exercise requests. It defines the administrative channel through which users can access information about data practices and initiate privacy-related procedures.
The updated privacy statement now explicitly discloses that Netflix collects voice inputs including transcripts and recordings when users interact with voice-related features, and that it makes inferences about user and household preferences for ad targeting purposes. The statement adds a new section titled 'Supplemental Privacy Disclosures for US Residents' that references a separate US State Privacy Notice containing 'Notice at Collection' details, alongside new subsections covering personal information collection, uses, disclosure for business purposes, data sales or sharing, retention, use of de-identified information, appeals rights, and financial incentive notices. The change brings the privacy statement into alignment with state privacy laws like CCPA and similar frameworks. You can access the US State Privacy Notice by clicking the provided link, visiting netflix.com/privacy#states, or scrolling to the new US residents section.
View change record →The updated privacy statement reorganizes and consolidates disclosures rather than expanding data collection practices. However, the statement removes explicit reference to the US State Privacy Notice from the main body, requiring users to navigate to supplemental sections to access state-specific privacy rights and disclosures. The revised language also removes the prior statement that Netflix makes inferences about household ad preferences, and removes mention of voice inputs and transcripts from the usage information description, narrowing the scope of explicitly disclosed data collection practices. You can access US state privacy notices by navigating to the 'Supplemental Privacy Disclosures for Certain Services' section or visiting netflix.com/privacy#states.
View change record →Users have the ability to request access to, correction of, or deletion of their personal information by contacting Netflix at privacy@netflix.com. The specific rights available depend on the user's country or state of residence, with EU/EEA users having GDPR-based rights and California residents having CCPA/CPRA-based rights.

"For questions about this Privacy Statement, our use of your personal information, or how to exercise your privacy rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer/Privacy Office at privacy@netflix.com.— Excerpt from Netflix's Netflix Privacy Statement
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: GDPR Articles 15-22 establish data subject rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. CCPA/CPRA establishes rights to know, delete, correct, and opt out of sale or sharing of personal information. UK GDPR contains analogous rights. Various national and state privacy laws create additional rights for specific user populations. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The policy provides a general contact mechanism for exercising rights but does not detail specific timelines, verification procedures, or the process for responding to rights requests. GDPR requires responses to rights requests within 30 days (extendable to 90 days in complex cases); CCPA/CPRA requires responses within 45 days. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users have the most comprehensive rights under GDPR. California residents have specific rights under CCPA/CPRA including the right to opt out of sale and sharing. UK users have rights under UK GDPR. Other state and national laws may provide additional rights depending on the user's location. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Netflix's ability to fulfill deletion and access requests may depend on whether data has been shared with Advertising Companies or other third parties. Data sharing agreements should include obligations for third parties to cooperate with data subject rights requests. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Netflix's rights fulfillment workflows should be tested for timeliness and completeness. The identity verification process for rights requests should be reviewed to confirm it does not create unreasonable barriers. Compliance teams should confirm that rights requests result in deletion from third-party Advertising Company systems where applicable.
