Robinhood US User Privacy Statement
Effective Date: March 18, 2026
This Robinhood US User Privacy Statement (the “Privacy Statement”) applies to mobile apps, websites, and other online services that provide features or functionality for US account holders and applicants (collectively, “Users” or “You”) of Robinhood’s (“we,” “our,” or “us”) Financial Entities (Robinhood Financial LLC, Robinhood Securities, LLC, Robinhood Crypto, LLC, Robinhood Money, LLC, Robinhood Credit, Inc., Robinhood Derivatives, LLC, Robinhood Asset Management, LLC, and Robinhood Ventures DE, LLC and Robinhood Ventures Fund I, collectively, “Robinhood Financial Entities” ).
The personally identifiable financial information Robinhood’s Financial Entities collect about you is generally subject to a law called the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLBA”). You can review the GLBA-financial privacy notices in connection with our Services: Robinhood Financial LLC; Robinhood Securities, LLC; Robinhood Derivatives, LLC; Robinhood Crypto, LLC; Robinhood Asset Management, LLC; Robinhood Ventures DE, LLC; and Robinhood Ventures Fund I; and separately for Robinhood Credit, Inc. and Robinhood Money, LLC.

This Privacy Statement also applies to users of the social media product offered by Robinhood Tape, LLC (“Robinhood Social” or “Social”) (together with the Robinhood Financial Entities, the “Services”). The personally identifiable information that Robinhood Social collects about you is generally subject to US state privacy laws, as applicable. This Privacy Statement accordingly provides information about our privacy practices with respect to customer data collected and processed by our non-financial products and services, such as Social.
This Privacy Statement applies whenever You are logged in to the Services or interact with us through online customer service channels.

We also obtain information about you from other sources as described below.
We use the information we collect for purposes described below or as otherwise described to you at the point of collection:
We may develop or leverage AI functionalities, including machine learning, to enhance your experience, improve and optimize our processes, products and services, and protect your account from fraud. For these purposes, some of your data, including but not limited to your inputs and conversations with our chatbots and AI features, may be used to train, test, improve, or enhance our AI functionalities from time to time. We provide notice and obtain consent where required under applicable law.
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to achieve the original purpose(s) for which we collected it and to comply with relevant laws. For example, we may retain certain data for the duration of your relationship with us and for a period of up to 5 years after the relationship ends in order to comply with our obligations as a regulated financial institution.
We may also keep your personal data for a longer period if required by law, in connection with an ongoing or potential claim, or for another legitimate legal or regulatory reason.
We are committed to maintaining your trust, and we want you to understand when and with whom we disclose information about you. We disclose information about you in the instances described below.
We may also disclose information with others in an aggregated or otherwise de-identified form that does not reasonably identify you.
We and third-party partners may use cookies, pixels, device identifiers, and similar technologies to collect information from and about your use of our Services, including when we use third-party advertising and analytics services to better understand your online activity and serve you targeted advertisements. The information collected may include IP address, web browser, mobile network information, pages viewed, time spent, links clicked, conversion information, and other Internet and electronic activity information and device information. We and our third-party partners use this information to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of content, and deliver advertisements targeted to your interests on our Services and other platforms, as well as to provide advertising-related services to us such as reporting, attribution, analytics, and market research.
Information collected and processed by these partners may be subject to those partners’ own policies. For example, we use Google Ads and you can review How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services for information about how Google processes the information it collects.
The information that is collected may be collected over time and combined with information collected on different websites and online services and across your devices, including to deliver targeted advertising to you, both on and off our websites.
For more information about targeted advertising, including to learn about options for opting out of having your web browsing information used for targeted advertising purposes, please visit www.aboutads.info/choices. If you are an account holder, you may have additional choices as described below.
Review Your Controls for more information. You should also review your mobile device settings and controls for features that allow you to opt out or opt in to having certain information collected for behavioral advertising purposes. Note, as a self-directed broker-dealer, we do not advertise on behalf of specific securities or investment options on our Services.
Account profile: You can update certain account profile information by logging into your account. For example, you may choose to upload a photograph of yourself, but are not required to in order to use our Services. You may also choose to update your username, and will be prompted to do so if you decide to use Robinhood Social (review Social). For some Robinhood Services (e.g., our credit cards), some information cannot be changed due to legal requirements, and in those cases we may not be able to accommodate your request. Please note that any changes you make to your account profile must be in accordance with our App Use Standards.
Pay & Request Profile visibility: Your Pay & Request profile will be visible to anyone on Robinhood unless you adjust your profile visibility settings. You may opt-out of Pay & Request profile visibility at any time.
Access to your device data and precise location: You may disconnect our mobile app’s access to certain stored device information and your device’s precise location through your device’s settings. For instance, you can withdraw permission for the app to access your contact list or photo gallery.
How to control your communications preferences. You can stop receiving promotional emails from us by selecting the “unsubscribe” link in those emails. We may still send you service-related or other non-promotional communications, such as account notifications, receipts, security notices and other transactional or relationship messages. If you are receiving text messages from us and wish to stop receiving them, you can respond with “STOP” to the number from which you received the message.
Affiliate sharing opt out: In some cases, you can limit sharing certain information between Robinhood affiliates. Review the GLBA-financial privacy notices of our Financial Entities (Robinhood Financial LLC; Robinhood Securities, LLC; Robinhood Derivatives, LLC; Robinhood Crypto, LLC; Robinhood Asset Management, LLC; Robinhood Ventures DE, LLC; and Robinhood Ventures Fund I; and separately for Robinhood Credit, Inc. and Robinhood Money, LLC) for more details. If you want to exercise this right, please contact us at privacy@robinhood.com.
Data sharing permissions: Account holders have certain choices about the sharing of their personal information with marketing partners for Robinhood’s marketing purposes. If You disable these permissions, we will no longer share personal information with marketing partners to more effectively market our services across third-party websites and services. Check out Managing your privacy choices for more details.
Cookie controls: Many web browsers are set to accept cookies and similar tracking technologies by default. If you prefer, you can set your browser to delete or reject these technologies. If you choose to delete or reject these technologies, this could affect certain features of our Services. If you use a different device, change browsers, or delete the opt-out cookies that contain your preferences, you may need to perform the opt-out task again.
Additional US State Privacy Rights: Residents of some states may have rights with respect to their personal information, such as rights to access, delete, or correct such information and to opt out of certain processing activities. These rights do not apply where personal information is governed instead by federal financial privacy laws, such as the GLBA.
Depending on which Robinhood affiliate you interact with, the nature of your relationship with us, and the products or services you use, your personal information may be subject to different privacy laws. In some cases, some or all of your information may be exempt from certain state privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), because it is governed by federal financial privacy laws like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
For example, if your relationship with us is limited to personal financial services (such as maintaining a brokerage account), the personal information we collect about you is generally covered by GLBA rather than state privacy laws. However, if you use other services, such as Robinhood Social, some of your information may be subject to applicable state privacy laws.
As a result, in some cases, we may have no obligation to accept any Data Subject Requests (“DSRs”), and in other cases, we may have no obligation to honor a particular DSR, because of the nature of the personal information that is collected or maintained.
With the exception of authorized users of our credit cards, we do not knowingly collect or solicit any information from anyone under the age of 13 through our Services. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information for any reason other than being added as an authorized user by their parent or guardian, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information. If you reasonably believe that we might have information from a child under 13 who is not an authorized credit card user, please contact us at privacy@robinhood.com.
If you attempt to add an authorized user to your account who is under the age of 13, we will request that you represent that you are the parent or legal guardian of that individual and that you consent to our collection and use of the child’s personal information in accordance with the Robinhood Children’s Privacy Notice.
