Runway's Privacy Policy was updated in an update detected on August 8, 2026. The change added promotional messaging about a Runway product offer ('Get unlimited Seedance 2.5 on new Max plans until August 14th') to the policy header and reorganized the opening structure by adding a 'Terms' link before the privacy policy text. The policy's effective date remains May 11, 2026. This appears to be a formatting and header restructuring rather than a change to privacy practices or data handling terms.
