Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights that vary by state and have exceptions. The Right to Know covers the categories of data collected about you, the categories of sources, and the categories of third parties to whom Instacart discloses it. Residents of certain states may also ask for categories or specific third parties to which Instacart discloses or sells personal information or shares it for targeted advertising; Instacart says it provides that as part of the Right to Access request. The Right to Access lets you obtain a copy of your Personal Information in a portable format.

Account holders with an active account can submit a request through a link that asks them to log in again. People without an account, who no longer have access, or who used Instacart through an embedded partner experience such as Groceries Powered by Instacart should email customerprivacy@instacart.com. Depending on where you live, an authorized agent can submit eligible privacy requests for you by email, and can use the opt-out instructions. The policy says that to confirm requests from an agent it may require written proof of permission and may confirm directly with you, other than for opt-outs.
