This provision discloses the derivation of emotional and psychological characteristics from user inputs, which may constitute processing of special categories of inferred data under GDPR or sensitive personal information under certain U.S. state privacy laws. The opt-out is limited to voice-based emotional inference, which does not necessarily extend to text-based sentiment inference.
Interpretive note: The opt-out applies specifically to voice-based emotional inference; the document does not clearly state whether text-based sentiment and emotional inference is also subject to an opt-out, creating interpretive uncertainty about the full scope of user control.
The updated policy establishes broader data collection practices than previously disclosed. The terms now explicitly state the company collects voice and audio inputs alongside text, whereas prior language specified only text and other materials. Additionally, the policy now discloses collection of precise geolocation information with user consent and authorization to access contacts, emails, calendars, and documents from third-party platforms. You can stop collection of precise location information at any time through the Your Choices section.
