Grok privacy policy drops the 'no personal info in prompts' request and adds payment responsibility wording

✓ Machine-checked

The bolded request not to include personal information in prompts was removed, and a shorter line says Grok cannot control what users provide. The payment data clause now also covers purchases other than subscriptions, and says Grok or a third party may have a third party process payment. A new sentence says users are responsible for all actions, including providing payment information, as if they had taken them themselves.

Taken from you

  • Responsible for all actions, including payment information, as if taken by you
