T-Mobile updated their Privacy Notice on April 29, 2026, with the most notable change being the addition of language clarifying that their accessibility services section now covers 'Live Translation services' and the data collected when you use them. The section heading was also slightly reworded from 'accessibility services and technologies' to 'accessibility services and similar technologies.' A legal compliance note about collecting disability status data was also refined to add the qualifier 'where applicable.'
T-Mobile's updated Privacy Notice clarifies that when you use their Live Translation services, call data associated with that use may be collected as part of their accessibility-related data practices. The section heading change from 'technologies' to 'similar technologies' is a minor wording adjustment with no practical impact on your rights. The legal compliance note about disability status data now includes 'where applicable,' slightly narrowing when T-Mobile claims it must retain that data.
If you use T-Mobile's Live Translation feature, your call data is now explicitly identified as being collected under their accessibility services privacy practices.
T-Mobile now says it only keeps data about a person's disability status when legally required to do so, and only where that requirement applies — a small but meaningful precision in their legal justification.
Users who rely on Live Translation services should now be aware that their call data is explicitly collected and used under T-Mobile's accessibility data framework. This disclosure increases transparency but also confirms a data collection practice that was not previously called out by name.

T-Mobile updated its Privacy Notice on April 29, 2026, adding explicit disclosure that Live Translation service call data is collected under the accessibility services category, and modifying the legal retention justification for disability status data by adding 'where applicable.' This touches CPRA/CCPA disclosure obligations (Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100) regarding explicit enumeration of data categories collected, and potentially ADA/Section 508 service data handling. The change appears to be a transparency clarification bringing existing data practices into explicit notice alignment. Action: confirm internally that Live Translation data collection and retention practices match this newly stated disclosure, and update any related vendor DPAs if Live Translation relies on a third-party processor.
1. CPRA/CCPA — Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100(a), §1798.110(c)(1): Requires disclosure of categories of personal information collected. Adding Live Translation call data to the accessibility section is a category-level disclosure update that should be cross-checked against the CCPA data inventory.
