"Geolocation data, such as device location. Internet or other electronic network activity information, such as browsing history, search history, and information regarding a consumer's interaction with an internet website, application, or advertisement. Device identifiers, such as IP address, unique device identifiers, and cookie data.— Excerpt from Robinhood's Robinhood Privacy Policy
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Geolocation data qualifies as sensitive personal information under CPRA, triggering the right to limit its use and disclosure. The FTC has brought actions related to deceptive geolocation data practices. Mobile device location data collection also engages state wiretapping and location privacy statutes in some jurisdictions. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. CPRA's sensitive personal information use limitation right requires that geolocation data be used only for purposes that are reasonably necessary and proportionate to the stated collection purpose, unless the user has not exercised the limitation right. Compliance teams should confirm that geolocation data is not shared with advertising partners unless users have not exercised limitation rights. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: California is the primary jurisdiction for sensitive personal information rights. Illinois, New York, and other states have location privacy statutes that may apply to mobile geolocation collection. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Analytics and advertising vendors receiving geolocation or device identifier data should be assessed for compliance with CPRA sensitive personal information restrictions and applicable state location privacy requirements. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should confirm that the right to limit use of sensitive personal information including geolocation is implemented in Robinhood's privacy settings, that geolocation data flows are documented and minimized, and that cookie consent mechanisms satisfy applicable state and federal requirements.
