California residents have stronger legal rights than users in most other US states, including the ability to stop Nextdoor from sharing their data with advertising partners.
The updated footer no longer includes a direct link to the 'Do not Sell or Share My Personal Data' page. Previously, this link provided quick access to California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) opt-out controls from the footer menu. Users can likely still access these controls through the main Privacy Policy page or dedicated privacy settings, but the removal eliminates a prominent, footer-based navigation shortcut. You should verify whether this opt-out functionality remains accessible through other menu locations or settings.

"If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including the right to know about the personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell or share; the right to delete your personal information; the right to correct inaccurate personal information; the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information; and the right to limit the use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information.— Excerpt from Nextdoor's Nextdoor Privacy Policy
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The CPRA, enforced by the California Privacy Protection Agency and the California Attorney General, grants California residents rights including access, deletion, correction, portability, and opt-out of sale or sharing of personal information and sensitive personal information. Precise geolocation is classified as sensitive personal information under CPRA, triggering additional use limitation obligations. Nextdoor's advertising data sharing practices must be evaluated against CPRA's definition of 'share' for cross-context behavioral advertising. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High for California-specific compliance. The combination of sensitive personal information (geolocation, verified address) and advertising data sharing creates significant CPRA exposure. Failure to honor consumer rights requests within the statutory 45-day response period (extendable by 45 days) can result in enforcement action. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California exclusively for CPRA, though other states with similar laws (Virginia CDPA, Colorado CPA, Connecticut CTDPA, and others) may create parallel obligations. The policy's California-specific disclosures should be reviewed against each state's individual law requirements. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Service providers processing California user data must be subject to CPRA-compliant service provider agreements that restrict data use to specified purposes. Any advertising partner receiving California user data must be assessed to determine whether the transfer constitutes a sale or share under CPRA. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should ensure that the consumer rights request intake process meets CPRA verification and response timeline requirements, that opt-out of sharing for advertising is implemented as a one-click mechanism, and that sensitive personal information use limitation rights are honored. Annual data protection assessments may be required for high-risk processing activities.
