Operative text: A party "collects" data if the data comes within its control. A party "retains" data if data remains within a party's control. A party "uses" data if the party processes the data for any purpose other than storage. A party "shares" data if the party enables another party to collect the data. Non-normative text: The definitions of collection, retention, use, and sharing are drafted expansively so as to comprehensively cover a party's user information practices. These definitions do not require a party's intent; a party may inadvertently collect, retain, use, or share data. The definition of collection includes information that a party did not cause to be transmitted, such as protocol headers.
