What it is

The legal hub includes a link to Snowflake's privacy policy, which governs how Snowflake collects, uses, and shares personal data in connection with its services and website.

This analysis describes what Snowflake'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)

The privacy policy accessible from this hub is the primary document disclosing Snowflake's data collection and processing practices; its specific terms determine what personal data is collected, how it may be used, and what rights individuals have over that data.

Interpretive note: The privacy policy is referenced but not reproduced in the provided document; its specific data collection categories, sharing practices, and individual rights mechanisms cannot be assessed from this navigation page.

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.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Snowflake's privacy policy engages GDPR for EU/EEA data subjects, UK GDPR, CCPA for California residents, and potentially LGPD, APPI, and PIPA given the regional document structure. The FTC maintains oversight of privacy policy compliance and unfair or deceptive data practices in the US. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium to High depending on content. As a cloud data platform, Snowflake processes significant volumes of enterprise customer data; the privacy policy's treatment of customer data versus operational data, telemetry, and support data is a key compliance consideration. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users have the highest exposure given GDPR data subject rights and international transfer requirements enforced by EU Data Protection Authorities. California residents have CCPA rights including the right to know, delete, and opt out of sale of personal information. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers acting as data controllers must assess whether Snowflake's privacy policy is consistent with their own privacy notices and data subject commitments. A separate Data Processing Addendum may govern the processing of customer data uploaded to Snowflake's platform, which is distinct from the privacy policy governing Snowflake's own data collection. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should retrieve and review the current privacy policy document, assess whether it addresses all required GDPR and CCPA disclosure elements, and determine whether the policy version applicable to their engagement is documented for audit purposes.
