OpenAI updated the language selection interface in their Data Processing Addendum on May 23, 2026. The change added five additional language options to the language selector menu (Armenian, Georgian, Icelandic, Maltese, and Somali) while keeping all substantive terms identical. This is a formatting and localization update with no change to the underlying data processing rights, obligations, or protections.

The updated document now offers the agreement in five additional languages: Armenian, Georgian, Icelandic, Maltese, and Somali. The rights, obligations, and data processing authorizations remain identical across all language versions.
