ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

An opt-out exercised for standard versions does not carry over to Beta Versions, meaning users who believe they have limited data collection may still be subject to it—including human review of their Content—when using Beta software.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

Using a Beta Version means Adobe may collect your data and analyze your Content, including through human review, even if you have previously opted out of such collection for non-Beta Versions.
