PayPal updated its Privacy Statement on April 18, 2026, making four modifications and removing one sentence. The most substantive changes involve updates to PayPal's Korea contact information, replacing the previous domestic agent (General Agent Co., Ltd.) with PayPal Korea Services LLC and a new representative (Mun Yat Wong), along with updated office address and contact details. The last-updated date in the document header was also revised from November 17, 2025 to April 2, 2026, and a minor contact email address change was made for Nevada regulatory inquiries. These changes reflect administrative updates to PayPal's contact and representative structures for regulatory compliance purposes.

What this means for you

The updated Privacy Statement reflects administrative changes to PayPal's designated representative and contact information for Korea privacy inquiries. Previously, PayPal listed General Agent Co., Ltd. with a representative named Eun-Mi Kim; the revised statement now lists PayPal Korea Services LLC with representative Mun Yat Wong, and provides updated office address and contact details. These changes do not alter PayPal's data handling practices or consumer privacy rights, but establish new contact points for privacy-related inquiries from South Korea users.

Key Clauses Affected

Korea domestic agent contact

Replaced General Agent Co., Ltd. (Eun-Mi Kim) with PayPal Korea Services LLC (Mun Yat Wong) and updated office address, telephone, and email for privacy queries.
