DeepL's privacy policy underwent structural reorganization in an update detected on July 24, 2026. The document removed 23 sentences containing the table of contents, section headers, and navigation elements that previously outlined coverage areas such as data controller information, scope of data protection, specific product-based data handling (Translator, Voice, API, Documents), cookies, user research, job applications, data security, user rights, and South Korean-specific provisions. The updated version retains the opening statement that protecting privacy and personal data is important to DeepL, but the substantive privacy policy sections are no longer visible in the detected change.

What this means for you

The detected change removed the privacy policy's table of contents and section-header navigation. The opening statement that privacy protection is important to DeepL remains. The substantive privacy provisions themselves are not shown in this change, so the extent to which user data handling, security, or rights were modified cannot be determined from the detected change alone.

Key Clauses Affected
