ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Interest profiles built from cross-site behavioral data are used for targeting, and third-party advertising partners — not solely Cohere — are involved in constructing and using those profiles.

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.
