"We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect and use personal data about you, including to serve interest-based advertising. For more information about the types of cookies we use and your choices regarding cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.— Excerpt from Synthesia's Synthesia Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Cookie use for interest-based advertising engages the EU ePrivacy Directive (Cookie Law) as implemented in member state law, requiring prior informed consent for non-essential cookies. GDPR applies to the personal data collected via cookies. Under CCPA and CPRA, sharing personal data via cookies with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising may constitute a sale or share, requiring an opt-out mechanism and the posting of a Do Not Sell or Share link. The FTC has authority over deceptive cookie consent practices. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. Interest-based advertising via cookies is a standard practice across SaaS platforms but has been the subject of significant EU regulatory enforcement. The adequacy of the consent mechanism (cookie banner) and whether it meets the GDPR standard of freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent is a common compliance gap. California's CPRA requires a clear opt-out for sharing via cookies with advertising partners. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA users are most affected due to consent requirements under ePrivacy and GDPR. California residents have CPRA opt-out rights for cookie-based sharing. UK users are governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. Organizations deploying Synthesia in regulated environments should confirm that employee use of the platform does not result in unintended cookie-based data collection. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers should review whether the cookie consent mechanism on Synthesia's platform applies to their employees' sessions and whether any third-party advertising data collection occurs during enterprise use of the platform. If Synthesia is accessed via embedded iframes or APIs, the cookie consent chain should be verified. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should review the Cookie Policy for a current list of third-party cookie partners and verify that consent records are maintained. CPRA compliance requires confirming that a Do Not Sell or Share mechanism is functional and honored. Annual audits of cookie categories and third-party sharing relationships are advisable.
