Marketing and analytics cookies may involve sharing your browsing and usage data with third-party advertising and analytics platforms, depending on your cookie settings.
Interpretive note: The specific third-party analytics and advertising platforms receiving cookie data are not named in the policy text, making it difficult to fully assess the scope of tracking-related data sharing.
The updated policy removes detailed disclosures that previously explained five cookie categories (strictly necessary, functional, performance, targeting), their purposes, and user controls. The revised policy retains only a brief statement that Writer uses cookies to enhance navigation, analyze usage, personalize experience, and assist in advertising, but no longer provides the granular categories, opt-out procedures, or explanation of what data each type collects. Users can no longer reference specific cookie management options, targeting cookie opt-out procedures, or detailed functional descriptions within the policy itself.
