Gemini privacy policy drops line about turning off past-chat personalization; feature now called Memory

The sentence telling users they can turn off personalization based on past Gemini chats at any time was removed. The condition 'If this feature is on' now reads 'If Memory is on', naming the feature. The diff does not show whether the ability to turn it off was removed, only that this reminder is no longer in this section.
