ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

EU, UK, and other international users may have their data transferred to a jurisdiction with weaker legal privacy protections, and the policy places the burden of this risk on the user through consent.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Squarespace collects a broad range of personal data including contact details, payment information, browsing behavior, and device data, and the policy authorizes sharing this information with advertising partners, analytics providers, and business partners. Visitors to Squarespace-hosted websites should be aware that their data is handled primarily by the website owner rather than Squarespace directly, which may limit the rights they can exercise against Squarespace. You can submit a data access, deletion, or portability request through Squarespace's privacy request process at squarespace.com/privacy.
