Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium May 23, 2026

The updated Privacy Notice no longer includes explicit language stating that users 'may unsubscribe through unsubscribe links at any time.' This removal means the document no longer contains that specific commitment to unsubscribe availability. The updated terms still reference a Privacy Notice governing data processing and retain cookie-related disclosures, but the removal of the unsubscribe guarantee eliminates a documented mechanism users may have relied on. You can review the full Privacy Notice to understand current communication and preference management options.
