Bumble removed a reference to UK servers from its privacy policy on April 19, 2026. The policy previously stated the company's network includes servers in the US, UK, and EU; it now says servers are in the US and EU only. This change may affect how UK users' data is stored and processed.
Consumers: You no longer have explicit confirmation that your data may be stored on UK servers, which reduces transparency about where your personal information is kept.
Bumble's privacy policy previously disclosed that the company operates servers in the US, UK, and EU. The updated policy removes the UK from this list, stating only US and EU servers. For UK-based users, this change may alter where personal data is actually stored and processed, which can affect data protection rights and latency. UK users may want to review the updated privacy policy to understand the new data storage arrangements and determine whether they align with their privacy expectations.
