ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision discloses that cross-device tracking by technology partners involves sharing of browsing patterns, geo-location data, and device identifiers beyond the Notion platform itself, spanning multiple websites and devices. This data sharing for cross-device matching purposes may qualify as a sale or sharing of personal information under the CCPA and may implicate consent requirements under GDPR for EU users.

Your browsing activity may be tracked across different websites and different devices or apps. For example, we may attempt to match your browsing activity on your mobile device with your browsing activity on your laptop. To do this our technology partners may share data, such as your browsing patterns, geo-location and device identifiers, and will match the information of the browser and devices that appear to be used by the same person.
