Impact Summary

Medium Neutral for users
Affected users
All users Gemini users with connected apps Users importing data from other AI platforms Personal intelligence users

Google Gemini updated its privacy notice on March 27, 2026 to describe how data from connected Google apps and imported data from other AI platforms is used to personalize your Gemini experience. The new language states that eligible users can connect certain Google apps to Gemini for personalized features, and that imported memory or chats from other AI platforms are saved in your Activity and used to improve services, including training generative AI models. This describes newly disclosed practices related to data from Connected Apps and cross-platform data imports, though the change does not appear to introduce fundamentally new permissions beyond what was previously authorized in the existing privacy notice.
