Devices connected to the internet should have privacy policies.
But Amazon, one of the biggest retailers of connected devices, doesn’t seem to think so. It does not appear that they require third party vendors include a privacy policy to sell connected devices on its platform.
Having a privacy policy isn’t a silver bullet, but if Amazon required them for all connected products, it would force companies to think through their approach to privacy and help give consumers the information they need to make informed purchases.
Add your name to the petition demanding that Amazon start requiring third party sellers to have privacy policies in order to sell connected devices on its platform.
