Pinecone's privacy policy was reorganized on June 30, 2026 to restructure how legal bases for data processing are presented. Previously, the policy listed specific processing purposes (fraud prevention, safety, provision of services, support) followed by a separate statement of legal bases. The updated version relocates the processing purposes statement and hyperlinks it within the legal bases section. The operational effect is organizational: the same processing activities and legal bases remain stated, but their presentation structure changed.
The updated privacy policy reorganizes how Pinecone discloses its legal bases for processing user data. The statement of processing activities and legal bases remains substantively the same: the company processes data for contract performance, with consent, for legal compliance, and to satisfy legitimate interests. The change consolidates this disclosure structure and adds a hyperlink to clarify the connection between processing purposes and legal authority. No new processing activities are disclosed, nor are existing legal bases modified.
Reorganized disclosure structure consolidates processing purposes and legal bases; substance remains unchanged.
