This provision establishes that the availability of data subject rights is conditional on applicable law and user location, which means the scope of exercisable rights varies by jurisdiction. The conditional framing means US users in states without comprehensive privacy laws may have more limited rights than EU/EEA or California users.
Interpretive note: The scope of rights available to users outside the EU, UK, and California depends on applicable local law and Meta's voluntary extension of rights, which is not fully specified in the policy text provided.
The updated policy removes FAQ sections that previously addressed how to deactivate or delete a profile, manage personal information, and share data with third parties. Additionally, the policy removes explicit language disclosing that 'Your interactions with AIs will be used to improve AI at Meta' and removes the direction to review Meta's AI terms. Users no longer have these FAQ resources in the policy document, though this change does not necessarily alter the underlying practices or rights; it only removes the documented guidance.
View change record →Under this clause, rights to access, correct, and delete personal information are available to users where applicable law provides them, including GDPR (EU/EEA), UK GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA (California). Users can submit rights requests through Meta's Privacy Center or Threads account settings. The conditional language means these rights are not uniformly available to all users globally.
