Google updated the language describing how Gemini shares user data when performing tasks on behalf of users. The previous version stated Gemini shares data 'with others to help complete your tasks' when using 'agentic features'. The updated version states Gemini shares 'necessary data with others on your behalf' when you 'ask Gemini to do things for you'. The change clarifies the scope of data sharing by specifying it occurs only when necessary and emphasizes the user-initiated nature of the data sharing.
