The provision operationalizes Target's data collection practices by defining which information categories constitute sensitive personal information under applicable legal frameworks and establishing a consent-acquisition mechanism for sensitive data collection. This structures Target's compliance obligations relative to varying state and federal privacy laws that impose different requirements for sensitive personal data.
