Why it matters

When your data is transferred to the US, it may be subject to US surveillance laws and different privacy protections than those in your home country, and the legal mechanisms used to authorize these transfers are subject to ongoing legal challenge.

Consumer impact

Patreon collects a broad range of personal data including payment information, IP addresses, browsing behavior, and communications, and shares this data with advertising, analytics, and third-party service providers. Creators are subject to additional data collection tied to their earnings, payout details, and audience metrics, which may be shared with financial and tax compliance partners. You can submit a data access, deletion, or opt-out request through Patreon's privacy center, which is powered by Transcend at privacy.patreon.com.

Applicable agencies

  • State AG
    EU supervisory authorities and state-level privacy regulators have enforcement authority over cross-border data transfer violations affecting residents in their jurisdictions.
