Privacy Rights Requests

The rights you can exercise on this page are applicable to how your personal data exists within the Mailchimp platform as an individual.

If you are a customer of any other Intuit products such as TurboTax, Quickbooks, Credit Karma or Mint and would like to exercise your privacy rights, please visit their website here.

There are two primary categories of individuals for whom we process data: Members and Contacts.

  • A Member is a customer of the Service or a representative of an entity that’s a customer of the Service.
  • A Contact is any person that a Member may contact through our Service. In other words, a Contact is anyone on a Member's distribution list about whom a Member has given us information or is anyone who has otherwise interacted with a Member via the Service

What are my privacy rights as an individual?

  • The right to be informed - this is a right to know how we process your personal information.
  • The right of access - this is a right to ask us for a copy of the personal information that we, as a controller, hold about you.
  • The right to data portability - this is a right to ask us to provide you with a copy of your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine readable form in certain circumstances.
  • The right to rectification – this is a right to rectify (put another way, change or correct) any personal information that you believe we are holding about you that is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • The right to erasure (deletion) - this is a right to have your personal information delete if it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected or when other certain conditions apply (commonly called "the right to be forgotten").
  • The right to restrict processing - this is a right to request the restriction or suppression of how we use your personal information in limited circumstances.
  • The right to object - this is a right to object to the processing of your personal information in limited circumstances, such as when we are relying on 'legitimate interests' to process your personal information.
  • The right to make a complaint to your Data Protection Authority – this is a right to complain to a data protection authority about our use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. Contact details for data protection authorities in Europe are available here, and for the U.K., here.

What is my relationship to Mailchimp?

Certain data protection laws (like those in Europe and US states like California and Virginia) make the distinction between those who act as 'controllers' and those who act as 'processors' of personal information. Put simply, a controller is the organization who determines how and why your personal information is to be used for certain purposes. A processor is an organization who acts as a service provider and only processes personal information on behalf of the controller under the controller's instruction.

Members - As a Member, Mailchimp acts as a controller of your personal information. Please review our Global Privacy Statement for further information about how we may process your personal information as a controller.

Contacts - As a Contact, our Members are the primary controller, and we are simply acting as their processor. For instance, if you signed up to receive a newsletter from one of our Members, that Member may ask us to help them send out their newsletters by using our services. In that case, the Member is the controller of your personal information, and Mailchimp is merely a processor. Under the law, it is up to the controller to make sure you can exercise your rights over your personal information. If you have questions about how your personal information is handled by our Members (the business or organization contacting you through the Service), you will need to review their privacy notices and, if necessary, contact them directly.

However, in the limited circumstances Mailchimp is a controller, you may have the rights identified in the chart below. Please review our Global Privacy Statement for further information about how we may process your personal information as a controller.
