ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a data-sharing framework that expands the scope of entities with access to user information beyond TurboTax itself. The operational effect is to integrate data handling across multiple business lines within the Intuit corporate structure.

Medium May 29, 2026

The updated privacy statement no longer describes a specific opt-out procedure for advertising cookies that was previously available. The prior version stated users could 'opt out of having your personal information used or disclosed for these purposes by sliding the toggle to No and clicking Save My Choices', but this mechanism and accompanying language are no longer present in the updated disclosure. The updated terms also no longer explicitly state that IP addresses and device identifiers may be shared with advertising partners, removing prior transparency about what data types are disclosed. You should review TurboTax's main Privacy Policy to determine if opt-out mechanisms exist elsewhere or what the current data-sharing practices are.

The updated terms now explicitly state that TurboTax and its advertising partners use cookies and tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertising on and off TurboTax sites. The policy discloses that IP addresses and device identifiers may be shared with advertising partners to show you more relevant ads, and states these practices may be considered 'targeted advertising' or 'sharing' of personal information under applicable law. You can decline third-party advertising cookies by going to 'Customize Settings,' though essential website cookies required for site functionality cannot be refused.
