What it is

Salesforce shares your personal data with advertising networks to show you ads on non-Salesforce websites and apps, but you can opt out of this sharing.

This analysis describes what Salesforce'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)

The provision operationalizes user control over a specific category of data processing activity—advertising-related data sharing with non-Salesforce entities. It establishes that advertising data sharing occurs as a standard practice unless the user exercises the available opt-out mechanism.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Salesforce discloses that it shares personal data for cross-site and cross-app advertising, and provides an opt-out right for California residents and others — exercising this opt-out can reduce tracking-based advertising targeted at you.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.

— Excerpt from Salesforce's Salesforce Privacy Statement

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

This provision directly implicates CCPA/CPRA Section 1798.120 (right to opt out of sale/sharing) and similar state laws. Compliance teams should confirm Salesforce's Global Privacy Controls (GPC) signal recognition and verify opt-out link placement on the Salesforce website.
