Why not all sharing can be limited; state law may add rights

The notice says federal law gives you the right to limit only sharing for affiliates' everyday business purposes involving creditworthiness information, affiliates using your information to market to you, and sharing for nonaffiliates to market to you. State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit sharing. The state notes that follow give California and Vermont accounts specific treatment: for an account with a California billing address American Express says it will not share personal information except to the extent permitted under California law, and for a Vermont billing address it treats the account as having directed no sharing of creditworthiness information with affiliates.
