ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The provision delineates the scope of data subject to Midjourney's collection and processing activities, specifically identifying user-generated inputs (prompts, images, documents) and algorithmic training data as within the Policy's operational framework. This establishes the institutional basis for the company's data practices across both service delivery and model development.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

High Apr 21, 2026

The updated privacy policy removed language describing how Midjourney shares personal data, the security measures protecting that data, children's privacy safeguards, procedures for notifying users of policy changes, and links to related policies. Users no longer have explicit disclosure of these practices within the privacy policy itself. The removal of language on how policy changes are communicated may mean users have less notice of future privacy modifications than previously stated.
