Binding arbitration is a significant legal mechanism that, if invoked, can produce enforceable decisions; its availability is conditioned and not guaranteed.
Interpretive note: The clause uses 'may be available' and 'under certain conditions,' making the actual availability of arbitration uncertain. The specific conditions are not described in the excerpt.
The updated policy now discloses that Grammarly collects voice data if you use transcription or Notetaker features, including recordings of other participants, and expands its list of collected content to explicitly include screen content and web pages. For users whose accounts are managed by an organization (employer, school, or other entity), the policy clarifies that Grammarly's privacy terms do not apply to the content you upload or output—your organization's privacy terms govern that data instead. This means organizational account users should review their organization's privacy policies rather than relying on Grammarly's policy to understand how their work or educational data is handled.
