What this means for you

The updated privacy notice no longer includes instructional language about enabling Gemini personalization through Connected Apps. Previously, the document contained a section explaining eligibility requirements and directing users to learn more about the feature. The removal does not indicate that the Connected Apps feature itself has been discontinued, but users will no longer find guidance on this capability within the privacy notice itself. Users seeking information about Connected Apps should refer to other Gemini documentation or settings.
