This provision establishes the operational scope of data sharing within Plaid's ecosystem: financial data flows from users to developers through Plaid's infrastructure, but governance of developer data practices falls outside Plaid's contractual responsibility. The clause allocates responsibility for developer compliance to the developer-user relationship rather than to Plaid's terms.
Users who connect to developer applications through Plaid authorize financial data disclosure to those developers under this clause. The terms establish that users' recourse for developer data misuse derives from developers' own privacy policies and terms, not from Plaid's data protection obligations.
