Midjourney's privacy policy explains what personal information the company collects when you use its AI image generation service, including your prompts, uploaded images, IP address, and browsing behavior, and how it uses and shares that data. Your information may be shared with third-party advertising and analytics partners, and could be transferred if the company is sold or merged. You have rights to access, delete, or opt out of certain data sharing, which you can exercise through your account settings.
Technical Summary
Midjourney's Privacy Policy (last updated June 2, 2025) governs the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personal data across its image generation platform, website, Discord integrations, and third-party service channels. The Policy establishes data processing obligations under multiple regulatory frameworks including GDPR (EEA, UK, Switzerland), CCPA (California), and COPPA (children under 13), and enumerates specific consumer rights including access, deletion, portability, and opt-out of data sharing. Notable provisions include the use of inference data and sensory data (uploaded images), data transfer to international jurisdictions, sharing with advertising and analytics partners via cookies, and potential data transfer in the event of a corporate merger or acquisition. Midjourney explicitly states it does not sell personal data but acknowledges sharing through advertising cookies, which may constitute 'sharing' under CCPA definitions.

Regulatory exposure, material risk, and due diligence action items.
Midjourney shares your personal data, including through advertising cookies, with third-party analytics and advertising partners who may use it to deliver targeted ads and measure performance.
California residents have the right to opt out of Midjourney sharing their personal information with third parties through advertising cookies, even though Midjourney says it does not 'sell' data in the traditional sense.
If you live in Europe, Switzerland, or the UK, you have strong data protection rights including the right to access, correct, delete, or port your data, and to object to how Midjourney processes it.
Midjourney creates inferences about you — conclusions about your preferences, behaviors, and characteristics — based on how you use the service, and shares these inferences with third parties.
Midjourney's service is not intended for children under 13, and the company will delete any data it discovers was collected from a child under 13 without parental consent.
Your personal data may be transferred to and stored on servers in other countries, including places where data protection laws may be weaker than in your home country.
Midjourney keeps your personal data for as long as needed to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce its agreements, without specifying exact retention periods.
Midjourney may update this privacy policy at any time and will notify you by email or a prominent notice on the service, but your continued use of the service constitutes acceptance of changes.
