Perplexity can change its privacy policy at any time and considers posting the update on its website to be sufficient notice, placing the responsibility on users to check for changes.
This analysis describes what Perplexity AI'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
The clause establishes a unilateral modification mechanism that permits the service provider to alter privacy terms without advance consent. This operational structure places the burden of policy awareness on the user through periodic review of posted updates.
Perplexity may materially change how it handles your personal data, including query history and AI training use, and its policy treats a website update as sufficient notice, meaning you are responsible for checking for changes rather than receiving direct communication.

"We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the effective date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.— Excerpt from Perplexity AI's Perplexity AI Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: GDPR Article 13 and 14 require that data subjects be informed of any changes to processing purposes in a timely manner, and passive website updates may not satisfy this requirement for material changes to data processing activities. CCPA does not mandate direct notification of policy changes but requires that the policy accurately reflect current practices at all times. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low to Medium. For most routine updates, passive notification via website posting is a common industry practice. However, for material changes that expand data use (such as adding new AI training applications or new third-party sharing), passive notification alone may be insufficient under GDPR and could expose Perplexity to enforcement risk. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users have the strongest grounds for challenging policy changes made without direct notification, particularly where those changes alter the lawful basis or scope of processing. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers should contractually require Perplexity to provide direct notification of material policy changes that affect the processing of employee or customer data, rather than relying on the standard website update mechanism. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should establish a monitoring process to track Perplexity policy updates and assess whether any changes trigger GDPR notification obligations, CCPA disclosure updates, or contract amendment requirements.
