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.
