High severity

What it is

If you live in California or certain other states, you can tell Walmart to stop selling or sharing your personal data for targeted advertising by visiting their privacy portal or calling their toll-free number.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

California residents have a legally enforceable right under CPRA to opt out of both the sale and sharing of their personal information, including purchase history and behavioral data used by Walmart Connect — but this right requires consumers to proactively visit walmart.com/privacy to exercise it.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Opt Out of Arbitration
    Visit https://www.walmart.com/privacy and click 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.' Alternatively, call 1-800-925-6278. Walmart states it will process your request within 15 business days.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

This opt-out right is one of the most powerful privacy controls available to U.S. consumers, but it is not automatic — you must affirmatively exercise it, and it may not prevent all forms of data monetization.
