Samsung's Privacy Policy was updated on May 26, 2026 with two minor modifications to navigation and product listing formatting. The changes removed the 'NEW' label from one product category (Galaxy S26 Ultra) and removed a 'NEW' label designator from another section (SmartTag). These are formatting and product catalog adjustments with no substantive changes to privacy practices, data handling, rights, or obligations.
