This provision establishes blanket recording consent as a condition of platform use, covering communications with Stash representatives and agents. The scope of permitted use extends to any use in the regular course of business, qualified by applicable law and the Privacy Policy.
Interpretive note: Applicability of this consent provision varies by state based on two-party consent recording laws; states including California and Illinois may impose additional requirements that qualify the scope of consent established by continued platform use alone.
Under this clause, all communications exchanged through the platform with Stash or its agents, including support interactions and account communications, are subject to recording and retention. The agreement qualifies this consent by requiring that use be permitted under applicable law and the Stash Privacy Policy.

"By using the Platform, you consent to the recording, retention and use of any communication, information and data exchanged between you and Stash or its representatives or agents for execution, processing, database maintenance, recordkeeping, or any other use in the regular course of business, from time to time, provided that such use is permitted under applicable law and our Privacy Policy.— Excerpt from Stash's Stash Terms of Use (Superseded URL)
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Blanket recording consent provisions in financial services contexts engage applicable federal and state wiretapping and electronic communications statutes, including the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA). State-level two-party consent laws (including California Penal Code requirements) may impose additional requirements beyond the consent established by this clause. Financial services recordkeeping regulations under applicable SEC and FINRA rules may independently require retention of certain communications, rendering this consent provision partially duplicative of existing regulatory obligations. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The broad scope of recorded communications and the open-ended permitted use for regular course of business activities warrants review against applicable state recording consent laws. The qualification that use must be permitted under applicable law and the Privacy Policy introduces a dependency on the current Privacy Policy terms, which should be reviewed in conjunction with this provision. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California's two-party consent requirement under state law creates heightened exposure for communications involving California-based users. Illinois and other states with similar electronic recording statutes may require separate evaluation. The geographic scope provision limits the platform to U.S. residents, but state-by-state variation in recording consent law requires jurisdiction-specific review. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: The reference to Stash's agents and representatives means that third-party service providers involved in customer support, processing, or recordkeeping may also benefit from the recording consent. Vendor contracts with such third parties should confirm appropriate data handling and retention terms consistent with applicable law. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should verify that the recording consent mechanism satisfies applicable state two-party consent requirements for users in jurisdictions such as California and Illinois. The Privacy Policy should be reviewed to confirm that communication recording, retention, and use practices are accurately disclosed and consistent with the terms asserted in this clause.
