Rumble updated its Privacy Policy on June 9, 2026, with two modifications. First, the last-updated date changed from June 2, 2025 to June 5, 2026. Second, the policy's language regarding notification of Personal Information disclosure was revised from 'will attempt to notify you' to 'may attempt to notify you.' This change introduces discretionary language where the prior version stated an intent to attempt notification, meaning the company is no longer committing to make such notification attempts but rather reserves the discretion to do so where permitted by law.
The updated policy modifies the language governing notification of Personal Information disclosure. The prior version stated that Rumble 'will attempt to notify you before we disclose your Personal Information,' whereas the revised language states the company 'may attempt to notify you.' This shifts the provision from an asserted commitment to attempt notification toward a discretionary authorization to do so when permitted by law. Under the revised terms, notification attempts are now framed as optional rather than intended.
The updated terms reduce the stated commitment to notify users before Personal Information disclosure, shifting from an intent to attempt notification to a discretionary option. This change affects operational clarity around when and whether users will receive advance notice of data sharing and may have implications for organizations that rely on Rumble's practices as part of their own data governance or vendor management frameworks.
→ The terms as written reserve Rumble's discretion to refrain from attempting notification of Personal Information disclosure even when permitted by law.

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
The company is no longer stating it will attempt to notify you before sharing your data, but instead reserves discretion to attempt notification if the law permits it.
The revision from 'will attempt' to 'may attempt' introduces discretionary language into a notification commitment, reducing operational clarity around when and whether users will be informed of Personal Information disclosure. While the provision remains subject to the caveat 'when permitted by law,' the language change establishes that notification is discretionary rather than a stated intent. Organizations relying on this policy for data processing arrangements should evaluate whether this change affects their privacy notices, vendor representations, or disclosures to data subjects about notification practices.
GDPR (Articles 13, 14 regarding transparency of personal data processing), CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act regarding disclosures), state privacy laws including Virginia VCDPA, Colorado CPA, and similar state-level frameworks that may impose notification requirements or transparency obligations.
