OpenAI modified two sentences in its Enterprise Privacy policy as detected on July 18, 2026. The first change was purely formatting, moving the title 'Enterprise privacy at OpenAI' to appear before the 'Updated' date. The second change altered the language describing workspace admin control over data retention, replacing 'Your workspace admins control how long your workspace data is retained' with 'Your workspace admins can control how long your data is retained.' The shift from 'control' to 'can control' introduces conditional language that may permit admins to retain data without explicit time limits, whereas the previous phrasing stated admins directly exercise retention control.
