Analysis
The Wix Privacy Policy establishes the terms under which Wix collects, uses, retains, shares, and potentially sells Personal Information, including sensitive categories such as scanned identification documents and payment information. It discloses that Wix may have disclosed or sold every category of collected Personal Information to a broad range of third parties — including affiliates, advertising partners, analytics partners, social media platforms, and promotional partners — within the past 12 months. Users are granted rights to access, deletion, and opt-out of targeted advertising and sale of personal information, each subject to defined conditions and legally permissible exceptions. Personal Information is retained for a period reasonably necessary to achieve stated purposes, without a fixed duration. Continued access to or use of any Wix Service constitutes acknowledgment that the user has read the policy, and users who oppose its practices are required to immediately discontinue all use.
What this means for you
Wix collects personal information including your name, contact details, payment information, and potentially data from scanned ID documents. That information may have been shared or sold to affiliates, advertisers, analytics providers, and social media platforms. You have the right to request a copy of your personal information, ask Wix to delete it (subject to legally permissible exceptions), and instruct Wix not to use or disclose your personal information for targeted advertising — you can exercise any of these rights directly with Wix. Wix may ask you to verify your identity, including with billing information, before acting on your request. Simply using any Wix Service is treated as acknowledgment that you have read this policy.

What changed
Wix's privacy policy retained existing language describing how the company determines data retention periods by considering data sensitivity, harm risk, processing purposes, and legal requirements. In an update detected on August 3, 2026, this retention determination language appears to have been reemphasized or clarified within the Retention of Information section. The operational effect is a restatement of the company's retention criteria rather than a change to how data is actually retained.
Why this matters
The updated privacy policy reiterates how Wix determines retention periods for personal information. Wix states it considers data amount, nature, sensitivity, potential harm from unauthorized disclosure, processing purposes, and applicable legal requirements. This is a clarification of existing retention criteria rather than a change to how long Wix actually retains data or what data is collected.

What changed
Wix updated its Privacy Policy effective date from March 3, 2024 to June 18, 2026. The substantive change involves reorganizing a sentence about data collection: the phrase 'Information we collect from other sources' was moved from the middle of a paragraph about aggregated usage data to stand as a separate section heading. This is a formatting and organizational change with no material difference to what data Wix states it may collect or how that collection operates.
Why this matters
The updated policy reflects a structural reorganization of how data collection sources are presented, but does not materially alter what data Wix states it may collect or the purposes for that collection. The phrase 'Information we collect from other sources' is now positioned as a section heading rather than embedded mid-paragraph, but the underlying data practices remain as previously stated.
