Event Summary

Writer updated its Trust Center on June 24, 2026 to add a detailed cookie consent framework. The previous version contained minimal language about cookies; the updated version now includes an explicit cookie notice, consent mechanics (Accept all / Manage settings buttons), descriptions of cookie categories (strictly necessary, targeting), and a statement that under applicable U.S. laws users have the right to opt out of cookies used for targeted advertising. Operationally, this establishes a consent-based cookie management interface on Writer's website.
