Highest Risk Categories
The highest-scoring risk categories identified in this assessment.
Legal Terms
Supplemental Meta Platforms Technologies Terms of Service mandates binding individual arbitration via AAA ICDR. Class actions and class arbitrations explicitly prohibited. Users waive right to jury trial. Liability caps apply. Multiple class action lawsuits (AI Glasses, biometric data) have been filed against Meta, indicating aggressive enforcement of arbitration clauses. Meta's $1.4B biometric data settlement highlights the scale of potential liability being shielded.

Training Use
Meta uses public posts, photos, comments, and reels to train AI models by default. Voice interactions with Meta AI stored up to 1 year for training. December 2025 policy update extended AI personalization to interactions with generative AI features. Opt-out available for EU users but not straightforward globally. Public content from adult users used without explicit consent. Cross-platform data (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp public interactions) feeds into AI pipelines.

Data shared with third-party vendors and service providers. Cross-platform data aggregation across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Meta AI. Voice conversation transcripts shared with vendors for speech recognition improvement. Meta's ad targeting infrastructure uses behavioral signals derived from AI interactions.
