Mistral AI updated its Data Processing Addendum effective July 27, 2026, with three material changes. First, the AI training opt-out language was simplified: the prior version required customers to have either opted out or used a product opted out by default, while the updated version states simply that the authorization applies unless the customer has opted out of training. Second, the document corrected a grammatical error in the data transfer authorization clause, changing 'Customer authorized' to 'Customer authorizes'. Third, the audit section was revised to remove 'the' before 'a' in one instance ('Mistral AI will contribute to a' instead of 'Mistral AI will contribute to t'). The first change clarifies the opt-out mechanism for AI training; the second and third are technical corrections.

What this means for you

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

The updated Data Processing Addendum clarifies Mistral AI's authorization to train its artificial intelligence models on personal data. The revised language states that Mistral AI is authorized to process personal data for AI training purposes unless the customer has opted out of training. This is a simplification of the prior conditional language; the practical effect is the same—customers can opt out of AI training—but the updated terms express the authorization more directly. You can opt out of AI training by exercising the opt-out mechanism described in Mistral AI's Privacy Policy.

Clarified AI model training opt-out conditions in Data Processing Addendum; simplified from dual-condition opt-out structure to single customer opt-out requirement.

Previous text
The updated Data Processing Addendum clarifies the conditions under which Mistral AI may train its AI models on customer data. Previously, the language stated that Mistral AI could train unless the customer opted out or the product was opted out by default without opt-in; the revised language states that Mistral AI may train unless the customer is or has opted out. This simplifies the opt-out framework by establishing a single condition rather than a dual condition. Customers retain the ability to opt out of AI training, and the revision does not expand Mistral AI's processing rights beyond what was previously permitted.

Previous text
Mistral AI updated its Data Processing Addendum effective July 27, 2026, making four targeted revisions. The most significant change clarified the conditions under which Mistral AI may use personal data for AI model training: the prior language required opt-out by either the customer or the product default status, while the updated language states that Mistral AI may train unless 'Customer is or has opted-out of training,' simplifying the opt-out condition. Additional changes include correcting a tense issue regarding data transfer authorization (from 'authorized' to 'authorizes') and minor wording adjustments to audit provisions (removing 'the' before 'a'). These revisions clarify operational procedures without materially expanding or restricting processing rights.
