Change Summary
Medium updated its privacy policy on June 19, 2026 to specify that vendors and service providers may receive personal information including content you submitted or posted, and to clarify that data sharing extends to training, testing, and improving machine learning models. The policy also added an explicit statement that Medium and these third parties may scan, analyze, and review your content, messages, AI interactions, and associated metadata. This expands the stated scope of data sharing beyond infrastructure and service support to include AI model development.
