Coinbase updated its privacy policy on May 28, 2026 with minor corrections to language and references. The changes include fixing quotation mark formatting around 'European Personal Data', adjusting section heading formatting for Data Privacy Framework references, correcting an internal policy reference from Section 3 to Section 34, and updating a URL for the Data Privacy Framework complaint process from https://go.adr.org/dpf_irm.html to https://feature.adr.org/dpf_irm. These are primarily editorial and administrative corrections with no material change to substantive privacy commitments or operational procedures.
The updated policy contains minor editorial corrections that do not materially change Coinbase's privacy commitments or data handling practices. The substantive provisions regarding Data Privacy Framework compliance, personal data transfers, and dispute resolution procedures remain unchanged. The corrected internal reference (Section 34 instead of Section 3) and updated complaint process URL ensure users can access the proper dispute resolution mechanism.
Heading formatting adjusted; substantive compliance commitments remain unchanged.
Internal policy section reference corrected from Section 3 to Section 34; substantive obligation remains unchanged.
ICDR-AAA complaint URL updated from https://go.adr.org/dpf_irm.html to https://feature.adr.org/dpf_irm; process remains the same.
