ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Data transferred outside the EEA may be subject to less protective legal regimes, and compliance with post-Schrems II transfer requirements depends on whether Ledger has implemented the 2021 updated SCCs and conducted transfer impact assessments.

Interpretive note: The specific countries of transfer, the list of non-EEA processors, and confirmation of whether 2021 updated SCCs are in use were not visible in the truncated document text.

This document changed recently

High Apr 19, 2026

The updated policy removes explicit language stating that Ledger Recover and Ledger Multisig services are excluded from this privacy policy. Previously, users were directed to separate privacy policies for those services; that direction is now absent. This creates ambiguity about whether this policy now covers those services or whether separate policies still apply. The dramatic reduction in policy length (from 224 to 36 sentences) suggests substantial content was removed, though the specific implications depend on what other sections were condensed or eliminated. You should review the full updated policy to confirm what data practices and service exclusions remain in effect for all Ledger services you use.

Medium Apr 2, 2026

Ledger removed language explicitly stating that this privacy policy does not cover Ledger Recover and Ledger Multisig services, and eliminated references to dedicated privacy policies for those services. This creates ambiguity about whether those services are now governed by the main privacy policy or whether separate policies exist but are no longer disclosed in this document. If you use Ledger Recover or Ledger Multisig, you should review the privacy disclosures for those specific services directly, as it is no longer clear from the main privacy policy whether separate protections apply.
