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.
The updated terms correct an internal reference that previously pointed users to the wrong section of the privacy policy and update the complaint process URL to ensure affected users can properly access Data Privacy Framework dispute resolution mechanisms. These administrative corrections maintain consistency and accessibility without changing substantive privacy rights or obligations.
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.
This change record describes what was added, removed, or modified in the document. Analysis reflects what the updated agreement states or permits. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This change is a minor administrative update with no material impact on compliance obligations or governance structure. The policy continues to describe Coinbase's reliance on the EU-U.S., UK Extension to the EU-U.S., and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks, along with ICDR-AAA arbitration for unresolved complaints. The corrected internal section reference and updated ADR URL appear to be housekeeping corrections rather than substantive policy modifications. No new obligations are created.
