out of 100. Number 149 of 512, counting from the worst.
Where Hubbell Incorporated does well
- Renewals 0 of 20. Nothing found.
- Hubbell states it does not share your information with third parties in exchange for money, and honors CCPA rights to know, delete, and opt out of sales, even honoring reasonable rights requests where not legally required (contact dataprivacy@hubbell.com).
- The site excludes children under 13 and will attempt to delete any inadvertently collected children's data.
- If the class-action waiver is ever struck down, class actions can still proceed in court (only jury trial is waived in that fallback).
- The liability cap is bounded rather than absolute zero — damages are capped at fees you paid in the prior six months.
- There is a working cookie-preference control and an opt-out path for Google Analytics and interest-based ads via the DAA.
By merely using hubbell.com, you agree to mandatory individual binding arbitration for any dispute, give up any right to a class action, and give up any right to a jury trial.
The fine print
6 clauses and findings from the draft archive, dated 1 October 2026. The plain English comes first; the small print is the company's own words. None of these has been checked yet.
-
By merely using hubbell.com, you agree to mandatory individual binding arbitration for any dispute, give up any right to a class action, and give up any right to a jury trial. The arbitration clause offers no opt-out window, so there is no way to keep your normal court rights while using the site.
THESE TERMS OF USE INCLUDE AN AGREEMENT TO MANDATORY ARBITRATION, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THE WEBSITE TO BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN PROCEEDING IN COURT. THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION ALSO INCLUDES A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO PROCEED WITH ANY DISPUTE INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION. THESE TERMS OF USE ALSO INCLUDE A JURY WAIVER.
-
Anything you post on the site — comments, feedback, reviews, photos, videos — Hubbell can keep and use forever, royalty-free, including handing it off to other companies, with no way to revoke the license even if you delete your account.
You hereby grant Hubbell a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sub-licensable and transferable right to copy, adapt, create derivative works, distribute, reproduce, modify, publicly display or otherwise fully exploit your User Content (including all related intellectual property rights) in connection with the Website and Hubbell's (and its successors' and assigns') business.
-
Hubbell can change the terms at any time without telling you first; your only 'notice' is that they post the new version, and simply continuing to use the site counts as agreeing to whatever changed.
These Terms may be updated periodically and without prior notice to you to reflect changes in our practices or relevant laws. We will notify you of any material changes to our Terms by posting an updated copy on our Website. It is your responsibility to review the Terms for updates and changes. Your continued use after we post changes constitutes your acceptance of the update Terms.
-
Hubbell says your personal data may be handed to advertising companies and promo partners who can then use it for their own purposes — the classic 'we don't sell data, but we share it for targeted ads' arrangement, which California law may itself classify as a sale.
In limited cases, we may disclose Personal Information about you to a third party who may also use the Personal Information for their own specific purposes. For instance, we may provide your information to a partner who is jointly providing or promoting a product or service to you or with a social media or online advertising company to serve tailored commercial information to you.
-
If you turn on your browser's Do Not Track setting, Hubbell ignores it completely and keeps tracking you the same way.
Our website does not alter its behavior or change its services when it receives a 'do-not-track' flag or signal from your browser.
-
There is no fixed deletion schedule — Hubbell keeps your data as long as it considers it 'needed or useful,' an open-ended standard that lets them hold it indefinitely.
We retain Personal Information for as long as it is needed or useful to provide and improve our products and services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.
How these were found
Terms of Use last updated January 6, 2022; read directly from the live page (the legacy URL http://www.hubbell.com/home/TermsOfUse.aspx now serves the current Terms of Use page). Privacy Policy last updated April 28, 2026, read directly at https://www.hubbell.com/hubbell/en/privacy-policy. Both were read in full via browser_open on hubbell.com — no mirrors or archives were needed. Limitation: Hubbell is a B2B electrical/industrial manufacturer with no consumer subscription products, so there were no auto-renewal or cancellation-trap clauses to find (autorenew scored 0 rather than unexamined). Product terms-and-conditions-of-sale PDFs for individual business units were not scored since they govern B2B distributor contracts, not the public website experience.
