Target's privacy policy was updated on March 19, 2026 with minor editorial changes to the policy interface. One sentence was removed from a 'Loading' placeholder section, and new content describing shopping categories and deals was added to that same section. These changes appear to be formatting or navigation updates rather than substantive policy modifications affecting data practices or user rights.

What this means for you
