State Farm uses cookies, device tracking tools, and other technologies to monitor your activity on its websites and apps, and it does not respond to browser privacy signals such as the Global Privacy Control.
This analysis describes what State Farm'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
Several state privacy laws now require businesses to honor browser-based opt-out signals such as the Global Privacy Control; State Farm's stated non-support for these signals may create compliance exposure in states where honoring such signals is legally required.
Interpretive note: Whether State Farm's tracking activities constitute a sale or sharing of personal information under CPRA or similar laws determines whether the legal obligation to honor opt-out signals applies; this determination depends on the specific tracking arrangements in place and their characterization under applicable law.
Your browsing and device activity on State Farm properties is tracked through multiple technologies, and State Farm does not respond to browser-level privacy opt-out signals, which may limit your ability to use browser tools to restrict tracking.
How other platforms handle this

If you choose to reveal any personal information about yourself to other users, you do so at your own risk. We strongly encourage you to use caution in disclosing any personal information online.
