out of 100. Number 484 of 512, counting from the worst.
Where Lockheed Martin does well
- Arbitration 0 of 20. Nothing found.
- Renewals 0 of 20. Nothing found.
- No consumer-facing Terms of Use exists at all, so there is no forced arbitration, class-action waiver, or clickwrap contract for site visitors — nothing to trap you.
- The notice explicitly states they do not sell or share personal information with other businesses for direct marketing (and repeat it under California's Shine the Light Law).
- CCPA rights (know, delete, authorized agent) are honored and responded to, EU-U.S.
- Data Privacy Framework compliance is listed, law-enforcement requests are said to be 'carefully validated' before disclosure, and a named Chief Privacy Officer with hotline (1-877-314-8442), email, and postal address is provided — more concrete contact than most corporate privacy pages.

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.
-
Browsing their site feeds your demographics and interests into trackers that follow you onto other websites as targeted ads.
Our website uses a tracking technology known as 'cookies.' These cookies may collect demographic and interest information, which may result in seeing certain interest based information on other websites.
-
They say they don't sell your data — except for ad-tech processing on their websites, which under California law still counts as sale/sharing; your only remedy is finding their opt-out link.
Lockheed Martin, generally, does not engage in: The 'sale' or 'sharing' of California PI, except with respect to the potential limited data processing activities on the web and internet sites for online advertising and marketing.
-
They can rewrite the privacy rules whenever they want; your only notice is a revised page posted on the site — no promise to email or otherwise tell you.
Lockheed Martin reserves the right to modify this Privacy Notice at any time.
-
There is no fixed deletion schedule — your data is kept as long as they decide business needs justify it, longer if they think a lawsuit might be coming.
We will retain your personal information for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, in alignment with our business needs... In specific circumstances, we may store your personal information for longer periods of time... if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your personal information or dealings.
-
To exercise your California privacy rights (know/delete your data), they may demand a copy of your government ID — handing over MORE sensitive data to get control of your data.
You must verify your identity before we will fulfill your request. As a part of this verification process, government identification may be required.
-
They watch what you do on the site even if you never fill in a form, and reserve a catch-all right to use your data for purposes decided later.
We collect information about you... By observing your use of our products and services and our website. ... We also may use the information in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.
How these were found
All findings come from the official Website Privacy Notice read directly at lockheedmartin.com (effective date November 9, 2023; read Oct 1, 2026) — no mirrors used. No public Terms of Use page could be found on lockheedmartin.com: repeated web searches return only B2B supplier contract documents (CorpDocs) and OpenTermsArchive has no Lockheed Martin service entry, so arbitration/autorenew score 0 partly because there is no consumer contract to score. The 'cookie statement' link on the privacy page was not separately readable (a navigation artifact resolved it to an unrelated product page). Supplier T&Cs (CorpDocs) were observed in search snippets to include a jury-trial waiver ('Each party hereby irrevocably waives... any right it may have to a trial by jury') — these are B2B procurement contracts with the government-contractor's vendors, not visitor terms, and the text was seen in mirrored copies, not verified on the official domain, so it is noted here rather than scored. Lockheed Martin is a defense/aerospace contractor with no consumer accounts, subscriptions, or purchase flows — the categories of auto-renewal traps and consumer data-selling have essentially no surface to evaluate.
