Plain-English summary
This Privacy Policy contains several notable clauses concerning user data. Hungryroot may not be liable for unauthorized disclosures (risk_flags-1) and cannot guarantee that third parties will honor opt-outs for targeted advertising (risk_flags-2). The policy also states that it does not apply to third-party sites linked from its services. Additionally, aggregated or anonymized data can be broadly used for research and marketing and disclosed to various third parties (data_use-1). The platform does not currently respond to 'do-not-track' signals (data_use-2).
90% confidence
These are the most critical policy elements that may significantly impact users. These findings are high-severity because they can lead to irreversible harm, limit user rights, or expose users to substantial privacy or financial risks.
The policy states that the company does not accept liability for any unauthorized disclosure to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Why it matters: This means that if your personal information is disclosed without authorization, the company may not be held responsible, potentially leaving you without recourse for damages.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we do not accept liability for any unauthorized disclosure.
The policy states that the company is not responsible if any opt-outs for targeted advertising are not honored by advertising technology companies.
Why it matters: Even if you opt out of targeted advertising, third-party advertising companies may not respect your preferences, meaning you could still receive targeted ads.
We are not responsible to the extent that any such opt-outs are not honored by any advertising technology companies.
These findings flag policies related to the collection, processing, and sharing of user data. Concerns include broad data collection, sharing with third parties without explicit consent, and potential use of data for purposes beyond the primary service, which may affect user privacy.
The policy states that aggregated and/or anonymized information, which can no longer be linked to you or your device, may be used for any purpose, including research and marketing, and may be disclosed to third parties such as advertisers, promotional partners, and sponsors.
Why it matters: Even if your data is aggregated or anonymized, it can still be used and shared broadly for research and marketing purposes with various third parties, which may contribute to general targeting profiles.
We may aggregate and/or anonymize any information we process through the Services so that such information can no longer be linked to you or your device. We may use such information for any purpose, including, without limitation, for research and marketing purposes, and we may disclose such information to third parties, including, but not limited to, advertisers, promotional partners, and sponsors.
The policy states that the platform does not currently take action in response to 'do-not-track' signals because there is no industry standard concerning how to treat such signals.
Why it matters: Even if you enable 'do-not-track' signals in your web browser, the platform will not honor them, meaning your browsing activity may still be tracked.
Some web browsers may transmit a “do-not-track” signal. Because there currently is no industry standard concerning how to treat such signals, the Platform currently does not take action in response to do not track signals.
These findings highlight terms related to subscription management, renewal processes, and cancellation policies. Concerns often include automatic renewals that are difficult to cancel, hidden fees, or unclear refund policies, which can lead to unwanted charges or service disruptions.

Why it helps: This helps protect the privacy of minors by ensuring that their personal information is not intentionally collected by the service.
We do not knowingly collect the personal information of children under eighteen (18) years of age. If we learn that we have collected such personal information, we will take reasonable steps to remove such information from our database.
The policy provides a mechanism to opt out of the 'sale' or 'sharing' of personal information for targeted advertising purposes, as defined under applicable state privacy laws, by clicking a specific link in the website footer.
Why it helps: This gives users control over how their personal information is used for advertising, allowing them to limit targeted ads.
The use of Cookies and your information for these purposes may be considered “sales” or use of personal advertising for “targeted advertising” under applicable state privacy laws for which you have a right to opt out. To opt out of our use of your information for these purposes, click the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the footer of any Hungryroot website and follow the instructions.
