Privacy Notice Supplement — Residents of Certain States
Intel restructured the cookie/consent preference table in this Privacy Notice Supplement. The most consumer-relevant change is that the entire 'Data Sharing' section — which disclosed that Intel shares personal information with its affiliates, partners, and authorized third-party processors, along with its own on/off toggle — was deleted. The 'Ad Targeting and sharing choices' section was renamed to 'Advertising' and lost its detailed explanation of how Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals are honored. The Active/Inactive status shown for each cookie category also flipped, though this likely reflects the visitor's own browser settings at the time the page was viewed rather than a change in Intel's default policy.
Removed disclosure and control for sharing data with affiliates and partners
Intel used to have a clearly labeled section telling you it shares your personal information with its affiliates, business partners, and authorized outside data processors, plus a specific setting for it. That entire section and its explicit consent statement are now gone from this cookie table, so you can no longer see or separately control this specific sharing practice here.
“You consent to Intel sharing your personal information with Intel's affiliates, Intel's partners, and Intel-authorized third-party personal information processors.”
What you can do — Review Intel's main Privacy Notice and use the 'Your Privacy Choices' link in the site footer (or enable Global Privacy Control) to confirm your opt-out of data sharing is still respected.
Less detail on how Do Not Track/GPC signals affect ad tracking
The page used to explain exactly when Intel will or won't collect your device information for ad targeting based on Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals, and reminded you to set preferences on every device. That explanation was removed from this section, though a general opt-out option is still described elsewhere in the full privacy notice.
“If you have more than one device, you will need to configure all devices with your privacy-preferences.”

| 48 | 48 | These technologies are necessary for the Intel experience to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. The technology is usually only set in response to actions made by the device owner which amount to a request for services, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in, filling in forms, maintaining secure login areas, maintaining state across pages (remembering items in a shopping basket), and server load balancing. The device owner can set their preference to block or alert Intel about these technologies, but some parts of the Intel experience will not work. These technologies do not store any personally identifiable information. |

| 54 | 54 | These technologies allow Intel to count device visits and traffic sources, so Intel can measure and improve the performance of our experiences. The technology helps Intel to know which experiences are the most and least popular and see how device owners interact with the experience. All information these technologies collect is aggregated. If the device owner does not allow these technologies, then Intel will not know when the device owner visited or how the device owner interacted with our experiences. |

If the device owner does not allow these technologies, then some or all of these services may not function properly for the device owner. |

| 76 | 66 | These technologies may be set through our Intel experience or by our advertising partners. The technology may be used to build a profile of the device owner's interests and show the device owner relevant advertisements on other experiences. The technology does not store directly personal information on the device, but the technology is based on uniquely identifying the device. If the device owner does not allow these technologies, then the device owner will experience less targeted advertising. |

Neither the disclosure nor the control appear in this table anymore. | ||
