Shein's privacy policy update on June 12, 2026 removed two sentences related to shopping cart persistence and sign-in prompts that previously appeared on the site. The removed language stated 'If you had items in your shopping cart, we saved them for you' and 'SIGN IN now to see them, or whenever you're ready to check out.' This appears to be a removal of informational messaging about cart functionality rather than a change to privacy practices themselves.
The updated policy removes informational text about Shein's shopping cart persistence feature and related sign-in prompts. This change does not modify what data Shein collects, how it uses consumer information, or what privacy rights apply. The removal appears to be a documentation change rather than an alteration of actual privacy practices or consumer rights.
