Grammarly Privacy Policy

Grammarly's Privacy Policy explains what data the company collects when you use its writing tools — including the actual text you type and submit for suggestions, your account details, usage patterns, and device information. Most importantly, Grammarly may use the content you write to train and improve its AI models, though you can opt out of this specific use in your account settings. If you want to limit how your writing is used, you should review and update your privacy settings at grammarly.com/account/privacy.

This document is Grammarly's Privacy Policy governing the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of personal data across its writing assistance platform, operating under a consent and legitimate interests legal basis with specific provisions for GDPR and CCPA compliance. The policy obligates Grammarly to provide data subject rights including access, deletion, portability, and correction, while imposing on users implicit consent to broad data collection including User Content (the actual text users write and submit for correction), usage data, device identifiers, and inferred behavioral data. A notable provision permits Grammarly to use User Content to train and improve its AI and machine learning models, subject to user opt-out, which represents a significant data use expansion beyond basic service delivery that deviates from baseline industry expectations for a writing tool. The policy engages GDPR (Articles 6, 13, 17, 20), CCPA/CPRA (California Civil Code §1798.100 et seq.), COPPA (children's data exclusion at age 13), and FERPA-adjacent considerations for Grammarly for Education; material compliance considerations include the adequacy of consent mechanisms for AI training use of sensitive User Content, the scope of third-party data sharing with advertising and analytics partners, and the sufficiency of contractual safeguards for cross-border data transfers from the EEA.
