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.

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.
