Snowflake's updated Privacy Notice, detected on July 21, 2026, adds extensive cookie and consent disclosure language to the website footer and legal resources section. The change introduces detailed explanations of cookie categories (strictly necessary, performance, functional, and targeting), a cookie consent banner with accept/reject options, and a privacy preference center allowing visitors to manage cookie settings. Previously, the document did not contain this granular cookie disclosure and consent framework in the captured sections.
The updated Privacy Notice now includes a cookie consent banner and preference center that allow website visitors to manage cookie usage. The document states that by clicking 'Accept Cookies' or closing the banner, visitors provide consent to cookie use, and that they can adjust preferences through a privacy preference center. The updated terms distinguish between strictly necessary cookies (which cannot be disabled), performance cookies (used for site analytics), functional cookies (for enhanced features), and targeting cookies (used by advertising partners). You can manage your cookie preferences through the privacy preference center or use the unsubscribe links provided in communications.
→ Review the cookie categories disclosed in the privacy preference center when visiting Snowflake's website.
→ Use the 'Cookies Settings' or 'Privacy Preference Center' to adjust your cookie consent preferences for performance, functional, and targeting cookies.
→ Click unsubscribe links in communications to manage email preferences, or use the privacy preference center to adjust consent settings.
