What it is

The policy's CCPA data category table states that Midjourney both collects and discloses inferences, defined as conclusions used to create profiles reflecting an individual's preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitude.

This analysis describes what Midjourney's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes that inferences derived from user activity are both collected and disclosed to third parties. The policy does not separately identify which third-party categories receive inferences, under what constraints, or on what legal basis inferences are shared, which may require evaluation under GDPR and CCPA data minimization and disclosure requirements.

Interpretive note: The policy confirms inference collection and disclosure in the CCPA table but does not describe which third-party categories receive inferences or the legal basis for inference-specific sharing, creating ambiguity about the scope of this disclosure.
