Microsoft's Privacy Statement table of contents was reorganized on June 28, 2026. Several product and feature references were relocated or renamed within the document structure: 'Microsoft Family' became 'Microsoft Family Safety', 'Phone Link - Link to Windows' became 'Linked Mobile Experiences on Windows', and several other entries were repositioned. The substantive privacy disclosures and policies themselves remain unchanged; this appears to be a reorganization of how products and features are presented in the navigation structure.
This change does not materially alter Microsoft's privacy practices or user rights. The Privacy Statement's table of contents was reorganized, and some product feature names were adjusted for clarity (for example, 'Microsoft Family' is now labeled 'Microsoft Family Safety' in the navigation). The underlying privacy disclosures, data collection practices, and user controls remain as previously stated.
