ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Third-party advertising technologies can collect user data independently, and their use is governed by those third parties rather than Writer's privacy policy alone.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium Jun 2, 2026

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.
