What it is

Okta may share your contact and behavioral data with business partners for marketing and with advertising companies to target you with more relevant ads across the internet.

This analysis describes what Okta's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Sharing data with advertising and analytics partners means your personal information may be used by companies beyond Okta to build profiles or serve targeted advertising, which is a significant practical expansion of how your data is used.

Interpretive note: The policy does not enumerate specific advertising and analytics partners, making it difficult to assess the full scope of third-party data flows from the document text alone.
