ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Cookie and tracking data collection is subject to consent requirements in the EU under the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR, and the policy states that a cookie consent tool is available, which is relevant to users who want to limit tracking on the website.

Interpretive note: The exact scope of cookie categories and the specific consent granularity offered by Cohere's consent management tool could not be confirmed from the truncated document.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium Apr 29, 2026

The updated policy removes explicit language describing data retention timelines and deletion request procedures that were previously available. The prior policy stated that Enterprise Users' inputs and outputs were retained for 30 days, that Trial Users and Researchers were not intended to process personal information, and that deletion requests would normally be responded to within one month (up to three months for complex requests). The updated policy now contains only a general reference to 'retention practices' without specifying these timelines, response windows, or user-type distinctions. Users cannot determine from the updated policy what retention periods apply to their account category or what timeline to expect for deletion requests.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision engages the EU ePrivacy Directive as implemented in member state law, GDPR Article 6 lawful basis requirements for cookie-based processing, and the ICO's UK PECR guidance. The document's HTML references a CookieYes consent management script, indicating reliance on a third-party consent management platform. The relevant enforcement authorities are EU supervisory authorities for ePrivacy and GDPR compliance, and the ICO for UK PECR compliance. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. Cookie consent management is a well-established compliance requirement but is subject to active enforcement in the EU. The use of a third-party CMP creates a vendor dependency for consent record-keeping and requires periodic audit to ensure consent records are valid and current. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU users face the strictest requirements under the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR for cookie consent, requiring freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent for non-essential cookies. UK users face equivalent requirements under PECR. California users have rights under CCPA regarding the use of tracking technologies that may constitute sharing of personal information. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: The use of CookieYes as a consent management platform creates a vendor relationship that should be assessed against GDPR Article 28 data processor requirements. Enterprise customers deploying Cohere's products should evaluate whether their own cookie and tracking practices interact with Cohere's data collection in ways that require disclosure in their own privacy notices. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should verify that Cohere's cookie consent mechanism meets the valid consent standard for the jurisdictions in which it operates, including that consent is obtained prior to non-essential cookie placement and that consent records are maintained. The cookie policy should be reviewed alongside the privacy policy to ensure consistency of disclosures.
