<pubDate>Sat, 22 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><category>major</category><description>Telegram&#x27;s blanket pledge not to use your data for ads is replaced with a narrower pledge covering only private chat contents and contact lists. The policy now describes ads in bots, stories and search, plus targeting by language, approximate country/city (from phone number or IP), and the channels a user follows. Premium users are said not to see ads. Taken from you: Blanket promise that your data is not used for ad targeting is gone; Ads may now be targeted by approximate city/country derived from phone number area code or IP address; Ads may be selected based on which channels you follow; Ads now appear in bots, stories and public search, not only channels</description></item>
