CPRA requires that businesses offering financial incentives in exchange for personal information provide a Notice of Financial Incentive including a good faith estimate of the value of the consumer's data and the material terms of the program, and this provision constitutes Walgreens' attempt to satisfy that requirement, including the statement that data value is not calculated in accounting statements.
Interpretive note: Whether the qualitative data valuation methodology described in this provision satisfies CPRA's good faith estimate requirement under current California Privacy Protection Agency regulatory guidance is subject to ongoing regulatory development.
Under this provision, participation in the myWalgreens loyalty program involves providing personal information across multiple categories described in the policy in exchange for price discounts and other benefits. California residents receive notice that there is no obligation to participate and that they may opt out at any time, consistent with CPRA's financial incentive disclosure requirements.
