What changed
2026.3: effective 10 October 2026
The first version published on bumbleb.co. Compared with 2026.2:
- Individual accounts: BumbleB decides how your own account details are used. Data about your website’s visitors and other people stays under your control, and BumbleB processes it for you under the Data Processing Agreement.
- Usage Data: the Privacy Policy explains plainly that creating Usage Data uses personal data, but the record kept doesn’t, and how to withdraw or object.
- No training: Usage Data is the only data derived from your content that is used to train anything.
- “Report a bug”: a conversation is sent only when you send it with “Report a bug”, after you are shown how it will be used. A thumbs-down no longer sends a conversation.
- India: individual users choose separately whether BumbleB may learn from an identity-free record of how its tools ran, and whether it may re-check recent sessions. Both are off unless you turn them on. Grievances are resolved within one month. The Grievance Officer is named.
- AI providers: requests through OpenRouter go to OpenAI only, with zero data retention required.
- Retention: visitor data, uploaded files and connected data are added to the retention tables.
- Disputes: arbitration is administered by the Mumbai Centre for International Arbitration, seated in Bengaluru.
- Our website: describes our cookie banner, Global Privacy Control and “Cookie settings”.
2026.2: never in force on this site
- Lists OpenAI text embeddings for search as a planned use, not starting before 8 November 2026.
- Corrects the database region and adds Google Sign-In, GitHub and Let’s Encrypt to the sub-processor list.
- Splits the legal basis for Usage Data by account type.
2026.1: never in force on this site
