Change Summary
Ledger substantially rewrote its privacy policy on April 19, 2026, removing 188 sentences while adding only 11 new ones. The updated policy is shorter and restructured, with the opening section reorganized and language about policy updates and service exclusions removed. Notably, the policy no longer explicitly mentions that Ledger Recover and Ledger Multisig services are not covered by this privacy policy, and no longer directs users to separate privacy policies for those services.
