Privacy

Privacy in Marketplace

Consumers provide a great deal of information about themselves when they shop, use the Internet, and engage in other everyday activities. CFA believes that consumers not only should be protected from harmful data practices, but are entitled to transparency and meaningful control when their personal data could be collected in the marketplace or used for marketing purposes. CFA advocates for strong laws and policies and vigorous enforcement action to protect consumers’ privacy.
