In short

  • You agree to let NVIDIA collect detailed usage data, including hardware specs and content viewing history, to improve their products and serve you personalized ads.
  • You also allow them to share specific hashed data with advertising partners like Google for interest-based marketing.
  • While you can opt out of ad tracking and delete your account, some data is kept indefinitely if it supports their AV and AI research projects.

What you accept

If you use this site

Everyday words for the material promises and rights you give up. Each line includes a quote from the document.

Fineprint cannot see whether you agreed. This page is posted on their site. Open the original if you need to know how they say it applies.

  1. 01

    You are agreeing that NVIDIA may share your hashed identity information with third-party ad providers such as Google to serve interest-based ads to you and others.

    Other companies

    “we share obfuscated (hashed) information about you with third-party ad providers such as Google to serve interest-based ads to you and others.”
  2. 02

    You are agreeing that NVIDIA retains public images and audio-video data collected from sensors on vehicles in public spaces for as long as it continues to support their AV and AI projects.

    This product

    “We retain data collected from public spaces for as long as it continues to support our AV and AI projects.”

What it can cost you

Downsides we could quote

Quoted clauses that can affect your privacy, money, or right to go to court — including terms that follow you to other products.

Highest-cost clauses first

High cost

Data sold or shared with third parties

You are agreeing to the classification of your data sharing with ad providers as a sale or transfer of personal data for targeted advertising.

“our sharing of non-sensitive data with advertising providers may qualify as the sale of personal data or the sharing of personal data for purposes of targeted advertising.”

What that means: Your personal identifiers are effectively sold or shared to allow advertisers to target you across the web.

The policy explicitly states that sharing hashed data with ad providers counts as a "sale" or "sharing" under California law definitions.

Medium cost

Tracking you across apps

You are agreeing to let NVIDIA track your mouse movements and page visit times to customize your experience and communications.

“When you visit our websites or online services, we collect information about your visit such as IP address, how long you have been on the website or app, or your mouse movements.”

What that means: Your digital behavior is monitored and used to create a profile that influences what ads and content you see.

NVIDIA collects detailed browsing behaviors, including mouse movements and time spent on pages, to build a profile of your interests and interactions.

Medium cost

Indefinite retention

You are agreeing that your likeness or data captured in public spaces may be retained indefinitely while it supports NVIDIA's AI projects.

“We retain data collected from public spaces for as long as it continues to support our AV and AI projects.”

What that means: If you are filmed or recorded in public spaces where NVIDIA operates, that data may be stored indefinitely for model training.

While customer data has a 5-year inactivity deletion rule, publicly captured data for AI training has no defined expiration date.

Medium cost

Terms follow you to parks, stores, and other products

You are agreeing that your hardware and gameplay data will be shared with specific third-party partners if you use GeForce NOW.

“We do not share this data unless you use GeForce NOW as an account holder with one of our GeForce NOW Alliance partners. If so, we share your operating system version, hardware information... with your GeForce Now Alliance partner.”

What that means: Your technical and gaming data is exposed to third-party partners integrated with the GeForce NOW service.

Using GeForce NOW triggers data sharing with external "Alliance partners," extending the scope of data handling beyond just NVIDIA.

Lower cost

Cookie consent that favors Accept

You are agreeing that NVIDIA will respect browser-level privacy signals by turning off tracking cookies when they are present.

“NVIDIA websites detect and respond to Global Privacy Control signals by disabling all Performance, Personalization, and Advertising cookies.”

What that means: Users using GPC-supporting browsers will automatically have their tracking preferences honored without manual adjustment.

NVIDIA acknowledges the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal and disables tracking cookies when detected, providing a functional opt-out mechanism.

Lower cost

Children’s data

You are agreeing that NVIDIA enforces age gates based on local laws and requires parental consent for minors.

“We only collect data from children who are above the age of digital consent in their jurisdiction (e.g., at least 13 for the United States), or if we have express parental consent...”

What that means: Children under 13 are protected from direct data collection, though younger teens may be included with parental permission.

NVIDIA complies with COPPA-like standards by requiring parental consent for users under 18 or restricting collection to those above the local digital consent age.

If these terms already apply to you

Keep this list. Fineprint cannot undo or cancel something you already agreed to at the company.

We cannot see Agree on their site. With Premium, tap “I accepted these terms” if you already agreed to what NVIDIA asks.
