Paypal Opted You Into Sharing Data Without Your Knowledge

Here's how to opt out of sharing data for "Personalized shopping."

Not the same person, but I do a credit card. It’s a lot easier to figure out a dispute with my card holder over PayPal. Plus I can cancel my credit card instantly instead of risking my personal information getting leaked as PayPal has done before. And if my PayPal got hacked they’d have access to more than just my credit card number.

Opposite in the EU. Most banks won’t even give you an option for a dispute. Or it will be awfully convoluted.

PayPal? Best dispute system ever. Saved me from online purchase scams countless times.
