Block
Data shared across Block's financial ecosystem without separate consent
Your information collected on Block.xyz automatically flows to Cash App, Square, Afterpay, and TIDAL—financial services you may not use—to "understand how you engage" with their products, expanding your data footprint beyond what you signed up for.
Vague "other reasons" clause grants indefinite future data uses
Block reserves the right to use your data for "any other reason we may tell you about from time to time," meaning uses not listed here can be added later with only a notice requirement, not fresh consent.
Data retention justified by broad legal compliance and business needs
While Block says it keeps data "as long as reasonably necessary," it also retains copies indefinitely to comply with statute of limitations, prevent fraud, collect fees, and enforce terms—giving Block enormous discretion over how long your data persists.
