ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Initiating—but not completing—a purchase triggers sharing of your Personal Data with the Business User, meaning incomplete transactions are not data-neutral.

Interpretive note: The clause name references advertising but the excerpt text concerns data sharing upon purchase initiation. The canonical claim follows the excerpt text. The advertising dimension is not supported by the quoted language and has been omitted.
