Target's full data collection, sharing, and use practices are governed by a separate Privacy Policy document — by agreeing to the Terms, you also agree to all privacy practices described in that separate document.
This addition incorporates the Privacy Policy by reference, making it enforceable as part of the Terms and Conditions without requiring separate user acknowledgment.

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Incorporation by reference of a privacy policy implicates CCPA (Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100 et seq.) notice requirements — specifically the requirement to provide notice at or before the point of personal information collection (Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100(b)). GDPR Art. 13 and Art. 14 require that privacy information be provided in a concise, transparent, intelligible, and easily accessible form — incorporation by reference into a ToS may not satisfy this standard for EU users. FTC Privacy Principles and the FTC Act Section 5 apply to the adequacy and accuracy of the incorporated privacy disclosures. (2)
