This provision establishes the mechanism through which EU and UK users may exercise data subject rights including objection to processing and correction of inaccurate data, which are operationally significant given the acknowledged risk of AI hallucination producing inaccurate personal information about individuals. The notice's use of qualified language ('you may have the right') acknowledges that applicability depends on the legal framework and circumstances.
The updated privacy notice establishes that Google collects data from third-party services you connect to Gemini, including Model Context Protocol server tools, and that such connections are not monitored or secured by Google. The notice explicitly states that choosing to connect third-party apps may expose your data, passwords, devices, and accounts to unauthorized access. The revised terms also clarify that you can use temporary chats, which are not retained for AI improvement purposes with human reviewer assistance. You can manage connected app permissions through Gemini Spark settings.
View change record →The updated notice adds new disclosure sections explaining how data flows when using Gemini Spark (remote browser and computer access), how avatar creation collects and processes information, and clarifies that Google collects information about AI reasoning steps during task execution. The notice also refines language around subscription information to specify 'Google AI plan' rather than just generic 'paid subscription.' These changes do not establish new obligations but rather expand the transparency disclosures provided to users about existing and new features.
View change record →The updated notice now explicitly identifies Memory as a feature that operates on the basis of user consent, alongside Voice Match. The revised language removes prior geographic restrictions on personalization, meaning Gemini can now reference chat history to generate personalized insights for all users globally, not just those outside the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. The removal of the statement 'Keep Activity must be on to use this feature' simplifies the operational requirement but does not establish a new obligation. You can learn how to turn the Memory feature on or off through the updated privacy notice.
View change record →Under this clause, users in jurisdictions where GDPR or equivalent laws apply may submit requests to object to processing of their personal data or to request correction of inaccurate personal data appearing in Gemini responses, using either the Google Help Center or the in-app 'Report legal issue' mechanism. The notice's qualified language indicates that the availability of these rights depends on applicable law and individual circumstances.

"Under certain privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation in the EU, you may have the right to: Object to the processing of your personal data, or Ask for inaccurate personal data in Gemini Apps' responses to be corrected. To exercise these rights, you can create a request in our Help Center. You can also create a request directly in Gemini Apps. Below the Gemini app's response, select More Report legal issue.Excerpt from Google Gemini's Gemini Apps Privacy Notice
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision directly implicates GDPR Articles on the right to object and the right to rectification, as well as UK GDPR equivalents. The Irish Data Protection Commission is the lead supervisory authority for Google Ireland Limited under GDPR's one-stop-shop mechanism. The acknowledgment of potential AI hallucination producing inaccurate personal data about individuals is particularly relevant to GDPR rectification rights. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The provision is explicitly disclosed and provides a mechanism for exercising data subject rights. However, the practical operationalization of correction rights for AI-generated outputs is technically complex, as correcting inaccurate data in AI model responses may require model retraining or output filtering rather than simple data correction. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU member states and the UK have explicit rights of objection and rectification under GDPR and UK GDPR. California users have CCPA correction rights. Other jurisdictions may have equivalent rights under applicable national or state privacy laws. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Organizations using Gemini Apps where third-party individuals' personal data may appear in AI outputs should assess whether their data governance frameworks address the right to object and rectification obligations as they apply to AI-generated content. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should assess the adequacy of the Help Center request mechanism for meeting GDPR response timeline requirements, and whether the in-app 'Report legal issue' path provides sufficient documentation for compliance record-keeping. The practical feasibility of rectification for AI-generated outputs should be evaluated in the context of data subject rights response procedures.
