Google has updated its privacy policy to clarify that it may use data from Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos to personalize ads when users connect these services to eligible Google services. This change, spotted by several tech publications, comes after Google introduced Personal Intelligence, a feature that allows users to share data from multiple apps with Google AI products for better AI responses. However, Google maintains that these services do not use this data for targeted ads by default.
