ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The clause allocates responsibility for data handling between Google and extension providers by limiting Google's accountability for third-party privacy practices while establishing that users' data flows to external entities under separate contractual frameworks.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium Apr 30, 2026

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.

Medium Mar 27, 2026

The updated privacy notice now discloses that Gemini can use data from connected Google apps and imported memory or chats from other AI platforms to personalize your experience and to improve services, including training generative AI models. This data is treated similarly to other Gemini activity. You can manage or delete your imported activity anytime through the Activity controls.

The updated privacy notice no longer discloses how Google Gemini uses data from connected Google apps to personalize user experience. Previously, the policy explained eligibility requirements and the opt-in process for this personalization feature. The removal means users no longer have a documented disclosure of this data practice in the privacy notice itself, though the operational status of the Connected Apps feature and whether it remains available is not clarified by this change.

When users enable extensions, the terms authorize transmission of conversation data to third-party services and establish that Google's privacy obligations do not extend to those providers' data practices. Users' data protection depends on the privacy policies of the extension providers rather than Google's stated commitments.
