Event Summary

Samsung's privacy policy was updated on May 21, 2026 to replace a reference to 'India / English' with 'USA / English' in the region-selection navigation of the document. This appears to be a correction to the geographic language options available to users accessing the policy. The operational effect is clarification of which regional language versions of the privacy policy are offered.
