Google Generative AI Services / Privacy Policy EU

Google adds 'Memory' to consent-based Gemini features; removes personalization note for non-EEA users

AI training: reworded

The consent list now includes a 'Memory' feature alongside Voice Match and audio recordings. The old note that, outside the EEA, Switzerland and the UK, Gemini personalizes responses using your Gemini Apps Activity chats (requiring Keep Activity on) no longer appears in this EU copy.

Taken from you

  • Memory is now a feature for which Google relies on your consent, implying new processing of your data

Won back

  • Removal of the personalization-from-chat-history note (not applicable in the EU anyway)
