Change Summary
Google Gemini updated its privacy notice on April 19, 2026 to add disclosure about imported data from other AI platforms and clarify how imported chats are treated within its data management tools. The policy now explicitly states that imported chats are included in the activity data you can review and delete through Gemini Apps Activity, and it introduces a new section explaining what happens to data when you import memory or conversations from competing AI services. The change expands the documented scope of data collection to include imported materials and provides clearer operational procedures for managing that data.
