Agent Readiness is a derived signal — a synthesis of two existing cells (Access, Portability) plus one sourced factor (API access), not an independently measured grade. API access scale: Best (2) consumer-grantable API · Moderate (1) partial / encumbered · Restrictive (0) manual export only. What is Agent Readiness?

§ This grade reflects a 2-point deduction (severity 1) for a verified regulatory action: 8/12 on data practices − 2 = 6/12 → C. The enforcement record is below.

Reviewed Jun 2026 · policies are checked weekly for changes  ·  stated — every cell is read from Hulu's published policy; none has been tested (run by us) yet.
2Accessstated
Hulu states you have the right to know about and obtain access to the personal information it has collected, submitted through Disney's request portal (usprivacy.disney.com) or via privacy@hulu.com.

1Portabilitystated
Access returns a copy of your data, but Hulu does not document multiple confirmed structured machine-readable export formats (e.g. JSON plus CSV) for a self-serve portable download, so portability is scored at the single-format level.

1Frictionstated
Rights are exercised through the Disney request portal or a privacy email rather than a one-click in-product control, placing friction at the moderate level.

2Deletionstated
Hulu states a right to request deletion of the personal information it has collected (subject to legal exceptions) and supports account management and deletion requests via privacy@hulu.com and the Manage My Stuff controls, so deletion is scored at the full level.
Hulu Help Center — Manage My Stuff / deletion · accessed Jun 2026 ↗
1Sells / sharesstated
Hulu states certain third-party advertising collection "may be a sale or sharing" under California law and offers a "Do Not Sell or Share" opt-out. The February 2026 California Attorney General settlement naming Hulu sits in the enforcement record below and deducts from the grade there.

1Trains AIstated
Hulu uses viewing behavior and account data for internal personalization and recommendations rather than to train generative AI models, and does not state it uses your personal data to train AI shared beyond the service, so model-training use is scored at the partial level.

§Enforcement action — deducts 2 points (severity 1); data practices without the penalty scored C (8/12)verified
California's Attorney General reached a $2.75 million CCPA settlement with Disney in February 2026 for failing to honor consumers' opt-out requests across Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu.

0API access — feeds Agent Readiness, not the /12stated
Hulu offers no consumer-grantable OAuth API for an agent to fetch your own personal account data; the self-data path is the manual Disney request portal or privacy email, so agent access is scored at the lowest level.
Hulu — Your US State Privacy Rights (manual request, no consumer API) · accessed Jun 2026 ↗
Reviewed Jun 2026. Hulu's US state privacy rights run through the same Walt Disney privacy infrastructure (usprivacy.disney.com); the Hulu privacy page and help center were corroborated alongside the Disney privacy center. Cells rest on Hulu's own published statements; the February 2026 California Attorney General settlement naming Hulu is carried in the enforcement record, which deducts from the grade.

12 Aug 2026Sells / shares your data0→1score

Same correction as Disney+: the February 2026 settlement naming Hulu was counted twice — in this cell and in the enforcement deduction. The cell now scores Hulu's own stated “Do Not Sell or Share” opt-out; the settlement remains in the enforcement record, which still deducts. Data practices 7/12 → 8/12; with the −2 enforcement deduction the grade moves D → C.
