Redfin
· Redfin Terms of Use
Instead of going to court, you must resolve most legal disputes with Redfin through private arbitration on an individual basis, where an arbitrator (not a judge or jury) decides the outcome....
Why it matters: Arbitration typically favors businesses over consumers — it is private, limits discovery, and the decision is almost always final with very limited ability to appeal....
View provision →
-
Redfin
· Redfin Terms of Use
You agree that you cannot join or start a class action lawsuit against Redfin — every dispute must be handled individually, not as part of a group....
Why it matters: Class actions allow many consumers harmed in the same way to band together, which is often the only practical way to hold a large company accountable for small individual harms that would be too costly to pursue alone....

Uber
· Uber Privacy Notice
Uber collects facial images from drivers to verify identity through its Real-Time ID Check feature, which uses automated facial recognition technology to confirm that the person using the app matches the registered account holder....

Uniswap
· Uniswap Privacy Policy
When you connect your crypto wallet to Uniswap, they log your public blockchain address and share it with third-party analytics companies to check whether it has been linked to illegal activity....
Why it matters: Even though a blockchain address isn't a name, it can be linked to your identity through other means, and your full transaction history is publicly visible — meaning this screening gives third parties a detailed picture of your financial activity....

-
Uniswap
· Uniswap Privacy Policy
Uniswap Labs acknowledges it cannot edit or delete information stored on a blockchain, including your wallet address and transaction history, even if you request erasure under GDPR or CCPA....
Why it matters: This is a structural limitation on your privacy rights — once your transactions are on the blockchain, they are permanent and publicly visible, and no company can remove them regardless of what the law requires....
View provision →
-
Uniswap
· Uniswap Privacy Policy
If you live in California, you have the right to ask Uniswap Labs what personal data they have about you, get a copy of it, or ask them to delete it by emailing privacy@uniswap.org....

If Uniswap Labs is acquired, merges with another company, or goes through bankruptcy, your data may be transferred to the new entity as part of that transaction....

Uniswap
· Uniswap Privacy Policy
Uniswap's services are not intended for children under 18, and Uniswap says it does not knowingly collect personal information from minors — if you believe a child's data has been collected, you can report it to privacy@uniswap.org....
Why it matters: While this is a standard legal protection, the pseudonymous nature of crypto wallets makes it technically difficult for Uniswap to verify users' ages, which could expose minors to financial risk....
View provision →
-
Uniswap
· Uniswap Privacy Policy
Uniswap Labs will notify you of material changes to this privacy policy through the Services, and your continued use of the platform after changes are posted counts as your acceptance of the new terms....
Why it matters: You could be bound by a significantly changed privacy policy simply by logging in and using the app, without actively clicking to agree — so it's important to periodically check the policy for updates....
