Modal's privacy policy underwent a minor update detected on July 31, 2026 involving navigation and example content changes. The before text listed examples including 'Analyze Parquet files from S3 with DuckDB' and 'Run hundreds of LoRAs from one app,' while the updated version replaced these with 'Deploy OpenCode agents in a cloud Sandbox.' This appears to be a routine refresh of featured product examples rather than a substantive change to privacy practices, data handling, or user protections.
