Impact Summary

Okta's Privacy Policy was updated on May 5, 2026 to add a trailing space at the end of a sentence about opt-out mechanisms for third-party vendor cookies and device identifiers. The sentence previously read 'Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or control the use of device identifiers by using their device's settings.' and now ends with a space character. This is a formatting change with no operational impact on the terms or consumer rights.

What this means for you

No material change to consumer rights or obligations. The updated language continues to describe the same opt-out mechanisms for third-party vendor cookies and device identifier controls that were previously available. The adjustment is a formatting change only and does not alter what opt-out options are available to users.

Key Clauses Affected

Third-party vendor opt-out provision

Formatting adjustment only; substantive opt-out language remains unchanged and continues to direct users to Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page and device settings.
