Recent Activity

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.

Excerpt from TurboTax's Privacy Statement

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (regulatory & governance intelligence)

1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Money transmission licensing engages state money transmitter laws across all jurisdictions where Intuit Payments Inc. operates, with explicit reference to New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) licensing. Texas-specific complaint procedures are referenced, indicating compliance with Texas Finance Code money transmission requirements. The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and FinCEN anti-money laundering (AML) obligations also apply to licensed money transmitters. CFPB oversight may apply to consumer payment services. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The disclosure identifies Intuit Payments Inc. as a distinct legal entity from Intuit Inc. for money movement services. Organizations or consumers using QuickBooks Payments, payroll, or other Intuit money movement features should confirm which entity holds applicable licenses in their jurisdiction and what consumer protections apply under state money transmitter law. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: New York and Texas are explicitly referenced. All U.S. states where money transmission services are offered create licensing exposure, and state-by-state license status should be verified for compliance purposes. Non-U.S. jurisdictions may face different regulatory frameworks for Intuit payment services. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: B2B users of QuickBooks Payments or Intuit payroll services should confirm that service agreements with Intuit Payments Inc. address regulatory change risk, including potential license revocation or amendment, and that indemnification provisions address money transmission compliance failures. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Organizations conducting vendor due diligence on Intuit as a payment processor should verify current money transmitter license status in applicable jurisdictions, assess BSA/AML compliance representations, and review the Texas-specific complaint mechanism for customer-facing compliance implications.
