Segments defined by short, readable rules make it possible to show what data was used, apply the same price to everyone who meets the rule, and publish eligibility criteria, which is what New Jersey’s discount exemption requires.
What Should We Review in Segment-Based Pricing?
- Whether segment membership relies on sensitive or inferred data
- Whether any segment pays above the baseline
- Whether the criteria can be disclosed in plain words
