Privacy Policy Overview

Policy date: Last updated December 23, 2021

Company: Kape PLC, UK

> This is a plain-language summary, not legal advice. The policy contains several incomplete contact fields and some potentially inconsistent statements.

1. Data Collection and Use

Personal data collected

When you voluntarily submit forms—such as registration, contact, support, review, newsletter, survey, or marketing forms—the company may collect:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Email address
  • Username
  • Other information you choose to submit through the Site or its services

The policy does not clearly identify all categories of data that may be collected through customer support, account use, or communications.

Non-personal and technical data

The company automatically collects information such as:

  • Device, operating system, and browser
  • Language
  • Date and time of visits
  • Referring website
  • Usage statistics, including page views, unique users, and time spent on pages

Although described as “non-personal,” technical and usage data can sometimes be combined with other information to identify users.

Purposes of use

Data may be used to:

  • Send news, updates, promotional material, and partner-related marketing
  • Personalize content and product offerings
  • Respond to customer-service requests
  • Follow up on communications
  • Improve the Site and user experience
  • Enforce the Terms of Service
  • Detect fraud and address security issues
  • Comply with legal obligations
Cookies and analytics

The policy says, “No” to cookies, but also says Google Analytics and similar tools may use pixels or cookies. This is an important inconsistency. Google Analytics may collect usage and device information. Users should review Google’s policies and may use Google’s web opt-out tool.

2. User Rights

Subject to applicable law, users may have the right to:

  • Access their personal data and receive information about its use
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Request deletion
  • Restrict processing
  • Object to processing
  • Receive data in a portable format
  • Withdraw consent
  • Complain to a data-protection supervisory authority

Users may contact the company to access, correct, update, delete, or opt out of certain data collection. The policy does not provide a complete email address or dedicated request form; it refers generally to website contact details. The company may verify identity and says requests may take reasonable time and effort.

Rights and response deadlines may vary depending on the user’s jurisdiction.

3. Third-Party Sharing

The company states it does not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise share personal information with third parties except as described. However, it may disclose data to:

  • Employees, associates, and service providers supporting the Site or products
  • Companies within the Kape corporate group
  • Cloud-service providers, potentially located outside the user’s country, including the United States
  • Google Analytics and other analytics providers
  • Authorities or other parties when legally required or reasonably necessary to address fraud, security, legal claims, safety, or alleged rights violations
  • A purchaser or successor in a merger, acquisition, or other change of control
  • Third parties providing services requested or approved by the user

Third-party websites linked from the Site have their own privacy policies, and Kape disclaims responsibility for their content and activities.

4. AI/ML Training

The policy does not state whether personal data, submitted content, analytics data, or communications are used to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models. Users should not assume that AI training is prohibited. This is a material omission if the service uses AI tools.

5. Key User Obligations and Restrictions

  • Users represent that they are at least 13 years old and legally competent to use the Site.
  • Users under 18 should review the agreement with a parent or legal guardian.
  • Children under 13 are not knowingly solicited; suspected data may be deleted.
  • Users should avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information because the policy does not clearly explain how sensitive data is handled.
  • Users should review the policy regularly because it may change.
  • Data may be retained as long as needed for legal compliance, dispute resolution, and enforcement of agreements.

6. Liability, Security, and Disputes

Kape says it uses industry-standard security measures, including tokens and encryption, but does not guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur.

The policy does not provide clear terms on:

  • Governing law
  • Courts or arbitration
  • Dispute procedures
  • Liability caps or exclusions
  • Compensation for privacy breaches

Its disclaimer concerning third-party linked sites limits responsibility for those sites, but broader liability terms may appear elsewhere in the Terms of Service.

7. Policy Changes

Kape may change the policy at any time. It says changes will be posted on:

  • The privacy-policy page
  • The homepage
  • Other locations it considers appropriate

The “Last Modified” date will be updated. The policy does not promise individualized notice by email, so users must check the policy periodically.

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The provided diff does not include the actual amended legal language. It only states: “Added approximately 99 words to the document.”

Analysis

Because the text of the additions, deletions, or replacements is missing, it is not possible to determine:

  • What contractual rights or obligations changed;
  • Whether liability, indemnity, confidentiality, security, or termination provisions were affected;
  • Whether the customer’s data may now be used for analytics, product improvement, or artificial intelligence (AI) model training;
  • Whether the provider may retain, de-identify, aggregate, or share customer data;
  • Whether customer consent is required before data is used to train AI models;
  • Whether the customer can opt out of AI training or request deletion of training data; or
  • Whether the provider receives broader rights to use content, inputs, outputs, usage data, or personal information.
AI Training Risk Assessment

No conclusion can be reached regarding AI-model training because the relevant added language is not provided. In particular, the analysis would need to check for terms such as:

  • “train,” “fine-tune,” “improve,” or “develop” models;
  • “customer content,” “inputs,” “outputs,” “usage data,” or “telemetry”;
  • Rights to use data in “de-identified,” “aggregated,” or “anonymized” form;
  • Whether human reviewers or service providers may access the data;
  • Whether data is used for the provider’s general-purpose models or only customer-specific models;
  • Opt-out, deletion, retention, and confidentiality commitments; and
  • Any limitation stating that customer data will not be used for AI training.

Please provide the full redlined text, including the material inside {}, [], and []{}{}.

Summary of Important Changes

1. No apparent changes to data use or AI-model training
  • The provided diff does not contain any language concerning:
  • use of customer data to train, fine-tune, or evaluate AI models;
  • use of customer content, prompts, telemetry, or account information for machine learning;
  • sharing data with AI providers or other third parties for model development;
  • opting out of AI training; or
  • ownership or licensing of data submitted by customers.
  • Accordingly, based solely on this diff, there is no identifiable new or expanded authorization to use customer data for AI training.
  • This conclusion is limited to the text shown. Any AI-related provisions elsewhere in the privacy policy would need to be reviewed separately.
2. Contact information and methods have been revised

The changes primarily update or reformat contact information:

  • References to the privacy contact email pd@kape.com appear to have been removed from several locations or replaced with more general wording.
  • A general support email, support@kape.com, is added or reformatted in the company contact section.
  • The policy now states that customers may contact Kape:
  • by post;
  • through the website contact form;
  • by telephone using the number published on the website from time to time; or
  • by email using the address published on the website from time to time.
3. Potential legal and practical risks
  • Reduced certainty of contact details: Referring to telephone numbers and email addresses “published on our website from time to time” allows Kape to change those details without amending the policy. This may make it harder for customers or regulators to identify the correct channel for privacy requests.
  • Possible ambiguity regarding the data protection officer: The prior text expressly identified a data protection officer and included pd@kape.com and a telephone number. The revised presentation may remove or obscure that dedicated contact information, depending on the final policy layout.
  • Privacy-rights request risk: If pd@kape.com is no longer clearly provided as a privacy-rights contact, customers may face uncertainty about where to submit access, deletion, objection, or other statutory requests. Kape should ensure that a valid privacy contact remains clearly and consistently displayed.
  • Formatting and publication risk: Several changes appear to involve broken or duplicated text, including address and footer content. If published as shown, these formatting defects could make the policy confusing or appear incomplete.
Overall assessment

The diff appears largely administrative and editorial. The main substantive issue is the possible replacement or obscuring of dedicated privacy contact details. No AI-training or customer-data-use change is apparent in the supplied text.

2026-09-01 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The provided diff does not include the actual amended contract language. It only states:

> “Added approximately 99 words to the document”

Accordingly, it is not possible to determine:

  • What contractual provisions were added or changed;
  • Whether customer data may be used to train, fine-tune, evaluate, or improve AI models;
  • Whether customer data may be retained, shared, anonymized, or transferred to third parties;
  • Whether the customer owns rights in model outputs or data-derived insights;
  • Whether any consent, opt-out, deletion, confidentiality, or security protections were added or removed; or
  • Whether the changes create new liability, indemnity, compliance, or intellectual-property risks.

AI Training and Data-Use Review

No specific language addressing AI model training or related data use appears in the supplied material. Therefore, no conclusion can be reached about whether the amendment:

  • Authorizes training on customer content or prompts;
  • Permits use of customer data to improve services generally;
  • Allows data to be combined with other customers’ data;
  • Applies only to de-identified or aggregated data;
  • Requires the provider to obtain consent; or
  • Provides an opt-out or deletion mechanism.

Information Needed

Please provide the actual redlined text, using the stated notation:

  • Additions: {new text}
  • Deletions: [deleted text]
  • Replacements: [old text]{new text}

Without the substantive text, any assessment of legal effect or AI-training risk would be speculative.

2026-08-31 · Privacy Policy

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The diff only states that approximately 99 words were removed from the document. The actual deleted language is not provided.

AI Training and Customer Data

  • There is not enough information to determine whether the deleted text addressed:
  • Use of customer data to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models;
  • Whether customer data may be used for product development or analytics;
  • Whether data is anonymized, aggregated, or de-identified before such use;
  • Customer consent or opt-out rights;
  • Restrictions on using confidential information, personal data, prompts, outputs, or uploaded content for training;
  • Retention, deletion, or security obligations relating to training data; or
  • Whether third-party AI providers may access or use customer data.
  • If the removed language contained limitations on AI training or secondary use, its deletion could materially expand the provider’s ability to use customer data. Conversely, if it contained a broad permission to use data, its removal could reduce that authority.

Other Potential Risks

Because the deleted wording is unavailable, it is also impossible to assess whether the change affects:

  • Data ownership or licensing rights;
  • Confidentiality obligations;
  • Privacy-law compliance;
  • Security commitments;
  • Intellectual-property rights in customer content or outputs;
  • Data retention and deletion;
  • Subprocessors or third-party service providers;
  • Warranties, indemnities, or liability limitations; or
  • Termination and post-termination data handling.

Recommended Review

Obtain the actual redlined text or the 99 deleted words before approving the amendment. Particular attention should be paid to any deleted provisions containing terms such as “train,” “improve,” “develop,” “machine learning,” “artificial intelligence,” “customer data,” “content,” “prompts,” “outputs,” “aggregate,” “de-identified,” “license,” “consent,” or “opt out.”

2026-08-30 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary of Important Changes

1. Additional contact information

The policy now adds or confirms pd@kape.com in several places, including:

  • Contact details for exercising privacy rights;
  • General privacy inquiries;
  • Reports concerning information collected from children under 13;
  • The Data Protection Officer’s contact details.

The Data Protection Officer is identified as Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou, with the email address pd@kape.com and telephone number +35 722 024 992.

Risk/impact: This makes it clearer how customers can contact Kape about data-protection matters and submit rights requests. It does not appear to create new customer obligations or materially change the scope of data processing.

2. Expanded contact methods and website footer content

The policy now includes additional or more explicit ways to contact Kape:

  • Postal address;
  • Website contact form;
  • Telephone;
  • Email address published on Kape’s website.

It also adds general corporate and website-navigation content, including links or references to:

  • Kape’s brands;
  • Press room;
  • Leadership team;
  • Vulnerability Disclosure Program;
  • Finance reports;
  • Whistleblowing;
  • Social-media channels.

Risk/impact: These appear primarily administrative and informational. The wording allowing telephone and email details to be published “from time to time” means contact details may change without the policy itself being amended.

3. Children’s data

The revised wording confirms that users under 13, or individuals aware that a child under 13 has shared information, should contact pd@kape.com. Kape states that it will take reasonable steps to delete such information.

Risk/impact: This reinforces an existing underage-data process but does not appear to introduce a new processing purpose or materially change Kape’s obligations.

4. AI-model training and use of customer data

No changes concerning AI were identified in the supplied diff. The additions and deletions do not mention:

  • Artificial intelligence or machine learning;
  • Training, fine-tuning, or evaluating AI models;
  • Using customer content, personal data, prompts, or usage data for AI development;
  • Sharing data with AI providers;
  • Opt-out rights relating to AI training.

Accordingly, this diff does not appear to authorize or restrict the use of customer data to train AI models. Any such rights or practices would need to be assessed by reviewing the full privacy policy and any separate product terms, service terms, or AI/data-use notices.

2026-08-29 · Privacy Policy

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary of Important Changes

1. No apparent changes to AI training or data use

  • The diff does not add, remove, or modify any language concerning:
  • Use of customer data to train, develop, or improve AI models;
  • Sharing customer data with AI providers;
  • Automated decision-making or profiling;
  • Retention or use of prompts, content, telemetry, or other customer inputs for machine learning.
  • Based solely on this diff, there is no identifiable change in the company’s rights to use customer data for AI training.

2. Contact information and methods updated

The policy’s contact provisions appear to have been revised or reformatted:

  • References to the data-protection email address pd@kape.com are retained, with minor punctuation/formatting changes.
  • The policy now appears to direct users to contact Kape:
  • By post at the listed postal address;
  • Through the website contact form;
  • By telephone using the number published on the website from time to time; or
  • By email using the address published on the website from time to time.
  • This replaces or supplements wording that referred to a specific contact number and email address.
Risk/implication
  • Referring to contact details “published on our website from time to time” gives Kape flexibility to change those details without necessarily amending the privacy policy.
  • It may create uncertainty for customers seeking to exercise privacy rights, particularly if website contact details are unavailable, outdated, or inconsistent with the policy.

3. Data protection officer details

  • The policy continues to identify Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou as the data protection officer.
  • The listed email address and telephone number appear to remain present, although the diff contains formatting and duplication artifacts.
Risk/implication
  • Because the diff is heavily affected by text-wrapping and duplicated footer content, it is difficult to determine whether the data protection officer’s contact details were substantively changed. A clean before-and-after version should be reviewed to confirm.

4. Formatting and website-content changes

  • The opening website navigation and footer content appears to have been removed or reorganized, including links such as “About Us,” “Press Room,” brand listings, and social-media/company information.
  • These appear primarily to be website-layout or formatting changes rather than changes to substantive privacy obligations.

Overall assessment

The identifiable amendments are mainly administrative, formatting, and contact-information changes. The principal practical risk is reduced certainty about how customers should contact Kape, especially where contact details are maintained dynamically on the website. No AI-training or customer-data model-training provision is changed in the supplied diff.

2026-08-28 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary of Important Changes

1. New or clarified contact details

The policy now adds or standardizes the following email addresses:

  • Data-protection/privacy inquiries: pd@kape.com
  • General support/contact inquiries: support@kape.com

The privacy/data-protection email appears in several locations, including:

  • Requests to exercise privacy rights
  • General privacy-rights inquiries
  • Reports involving information submitted by children under 13
  • Data Protection Officer contact details
Potential impact
  • Customers have clearer contact routes for privacy requests and support.
  • Repeated references to the same address may reduce ambiguity, but the policy should ensure that the addresses are monitored and operational.
  • The diff appears to replace generic wording such as “the contact number published on our website from time to time” and “the email address published on our website from time to time” with, or supplement it with, fixed email addresses. Fixed details are more reliable but may become outdated if not maintained.

2. Data Protection Officer information

The policy identifies the Data Protection Officer as:

  • Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou
  • pd@kape.com
  • +35 722 024 992
Potential impact

This makes the controller’s privacy contact information more specific and may assist users exercising rights under applicable data-protection laws. The organization should ensure that the named individual, email address, and telephone number remain current.

3. Website and corporate footer content

The additions include navigation and corporate information such as:

  • “About Us,” “Press Room,” “Our Brands,” and “Our team”
  • Kape’s company description and brand list
  • Social-media references
  • Links or references to the privacy policy and other corporate pages
Potential impact

These appear to be website-navigation or footer changes rather than changes to substantive privacy rights, processing purposes, or contractual obligations.

4. Children’s data

The existing provision concerning information submitted by children under 13 now directs users to pd@kape.com and states that Kape will take reasonable steps to delete such information.

Potential impact

The operational contact route is clearer. The diff does not appear to change the underlying age threshold, deletion commitment, or standard for handling children’s data.

5. AI-model training and use of customer data

No changes relating to AI, machine learning, model training, model improvement, automated decision-making, or use of customer data to train AI models are shown in this diff.

There is no new language authorizing Kape to:

  • Use customer content or personal data to train AI models
  • Share data with AI providers for training
  • Retain data for model development
  • Opt customers into or out of AI training

6. Drafting/formatting concern

The diff contains apparent markup artifacts, including malformed “[Text Wrapping Break]” and {Break] tags. These should be reviewed before publication because they could create confusing or visibly broken policy text.

2026-08-28 · Privacy Policy

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The diff only states that approximately 99 words were removed from the document. It does not identify which words, clauses, or sections were deleted.

Key Legal Implications

  • Substantive impact cannot be determined: Without the deleted text, it is not possible to assess whether the changes affect liability, confidentiality, intellectual property, termination, warranties, security, or other obligations.
  • Potential narrowing of protections: Deletions may remove customer rights, provider obligations, restrictions, or remedies. The practical effect depends entirely on the missing language.
  • Potential expansion of provider rights: If the deleted language contained limitations on data use or other provider activities, its removal could broaden the provider’s rights.

Customer Data and AI Training

  • No conclusion possible from the supplied diff: The diff does not show whether language concerning the use of customer data to train, fine-tune, improve, or evaluate AI or machine-learning models was added, removed, or changed.
  • Risk requiring review: Particular attention should be given to any deleted terms addressing:
  • use of customer content or personal data for model training;
  • use of data to improve products or services;
  • aggregation, de-identification, or anonymization;
  • retention of prompts, outputs, or usage data;
  • opt-in or opt-out rights;
  • ownership of inputs, outputs, and model improvements; and
  • restrictions on human review or disclosure to affiliates and subprocessors.

Recommended Next Step

Provide the actual redline showing the 99 deleted words, or the prior and revised versions of the relevant provision. Without that text, a reliable legal comparison—and especially an assessment of AI-training data rights—is not possible.

2026-08-25 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The diff only states that approximately 99 words were added, but it does not include the actual added language or identify where those words appear.

AI Training and Data Use
  • It is not possible to determine whether the changes:
  • Permit the customer’s data to be used to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models;
  • Limit or prohibit such use;
  • Allow use of prompts, outputs, personal information, or confidential data for training;
  • Grant the provider ownership or broad usage rights over customer data; or
  • Impose deletion, anonymization, opt-out, or confidentiality obligations.
Legal Risks

No new legal risks can be reliably identified without the text of the additions. In particular, the missing language could materially affect:

  • Data ownership and licensing rights
  • Confidentiality and privacy protections
  • Use of personal or regulated data
  • AI model training and service improvement
  • Retention and deletion obligations
  • Customer opt-out or consent requirements
  • Indemnity, liability, and compliance exposure
Required Information

Please provide the actual 99-word addition, preferably with the surrounding contract language and any deletion or replacement markers. Without that text, a substantive legal comparison is not possible.

2026-08-24 · Privacy Policy

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The diff only states that approximately 99 words were removed from the document. It does not identify which words, clauses, or sections were deleted.

Key Legal Impact
  • Cannot determine the substantive changes: Without the actual deleted language, it is not possible to assess whether the removals affect liability, confidentiality, intellectual property, termination, data protection, or other legal obligations.
  • Potential narrowing of protections: Deletions can remove customer rights, provider obligations, warranties, limitations on use, or procedural safeguards. The legal effect depends entirely on the omitted text.
  • No clear indication of changed obligations: The available diff does not show whether either party’s duties, remedies, or risk allocation have changed.
Customer Data and AI Training
  • No identifiable AI-training change: The supplied diff does not show any language concerning whether customer data may be used to train, fine-tune, evaluate, or improve artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models.
  • Risk cannot be assessed: The removed text might have contained a prohibition, consent requirement, opt-out right, de-identification condition, ownership provision, or disclosure about AI training. Conversely, it may have been unrelated.
  • Important provisions to verify: Review the deleted language for terms such as *train*, *fine-tune*, *improve*, *develop*, *machine learning*, *artificial intelligence*, *models*, *inputs*, *outputs*, *aggregated data*, *de-identified data*, and *service improvement*.
Recommended Next Step

Provide the actual before-and-after text, or a redline showing the 99 deleted words. Without that material, no reliable conclusion can be reached about the legal significance of the amendment or the treatment of customer data for AI training.

2026-08-24 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary

The diff only states: “Added approximately 99 words to the document.” It does not include the actual added language or identify which provisions changed.

AI Training and Customer Data

  • No conclusion can be reached about whether customer data may be used to train, fine-tune, evaluate, or otherwise improve AI models.
  • The diff does not reveal whether the new language:
  • Grants the provider a license to use customer data;
  • Permits use of inputs, outputs, prompts, or account information for model training;
  • Allows data to be aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified;
  • Creates opt-out or deletion rights;
  • Applies different rules to personal data, confidential information, or customer content; or
  • Limits use to service delivery and security purposes.

Other Legal Risks

The actual 99-word addition is necessary to assess potential changes involving:

  • Data ownership and intellectual-property rights;
  • Confidentiality;
  • Privacy and regulatory compliance;
  • Security and breach responsibilities;
  • Retention and deletion;
  • Subcontractors or third-party AI providers;
  • Warranties, indemnities, and liability limits; and
  • Whether the new terms apply retroactively or override conflicting provisions.

Conclusion

No substantive legal analysis is possible from the supplied diff because the added contractual language is missing. The complete text of the approximately 99-word addition, together with any surrounding or replaced language, should be provided for a reliable assessment—particularly of AI-training rights and customer-data use.

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary of Important Changes

1. Contact details and privacy-request channels

The revision appears to make several administrative and formatting changes to Kape’s contact information:

  • References to pd@kape.com appear to be removed or altered in some locations, including:
  • Requests to exercise privacy rights;
  • General privacy inquiries; and
  • The underage-user contact process.
  • support@kape.com is added to Kape’s postal contact details.
  • Users may contact Kape:
  • By post;
  • Through the website contact form;
  • By telephone using the number published on the website; or
  • By email using the address published on the website.
  • The wording changes from specifying a particular telephone number or email address to referring to contact details published “from time to time.”
2. Potential legal and operational risks
  • Unclear privacy-rights contact route: If pd@kape.com has been removed as the dedicated privacy contact, the policy should clearly identify the current channel for data-subject requests. Ambiguity could make it harder for customers to exercise rights such as access, deletion, or objection.
  • Dynamic contact information: Referring users to contact details that may change on the website can create uncertainty and evidentiary issues. The company should ensure that the current contact channels are consistently displayed and monitored.
  • Inconsistent disclosures: The diff appears to leave multiple references to pd@kape.com, while adding support@kape.com elsewhere. Inconsistent contact details could result in missed requests or complaints about inadequate transparency.
  • DPO information: The policy continues to identify a data protection officer and provides contact details, but the treatment of the DPO email address should be checked for consistency throughout the policy.
3. AI-model training and customer data

No express changes concerning AI, machine learning, model training, automated model development, or use of customer data to train AI systems are visible in this diff.

The shown revisions do not appear to:

  • Authorize training AI models using customer data;
  • Expand the purposes for which personal data may be processed;
  • Add a new legal basis for AI training;
  • Permit sharing data with AI providers; or
  • Change retention, profiling, or automated-decision provisions.

Accordingly, based solely on this diff, there is no identifiable new AI-training risk. However, the complete privacy policy should be reviewed separately to confirm whether existing language on analytics, service improvement, aggregated data, or third-party providers could already cover AI-related processing.

2026-08-22 · Privacy Policy

grew 7.5% · Observed by clause.watch

Summary of Important Changes

1. Contact details added or standardized

The diff adds pd@kape.com in several places, including:

  • The contact address for exercising privacy rights
  • General privacy inquiries
  • Reports concerning information submitted by children under 13
  • The Data Protection Officer’s contact details

The Data Protection Officer is identified as Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou, with the telephone number +35 722 024 992.

Legal significance

These changes make the privacy-rights and data-protection contact information more specific and accessible. Customers may have a clearer route for:

  • Access, deletion, correction, objection, or other privacy requests
  • Questions about the privacy policy
  • Reports involving children’s data
  • Contact with the Data Protection Officer

The repeated use of the same email address may indicate that privacy requests are being centralized through that mailbox.

2. Additional general contact information

The policy now includes support@kape.com alongside Kape’s postal address and other contact methods. It also refers to contacting Kape through:

  • Post
  • Website contact form
  • Telephone
  • Email

Some wording appears to refer to contact details published on Kape’s website “from time to time,” which could allow those details to change without formally amending the policy.

3. Website and corporate footer content

The additions include corporate and website navigation material, such as:

  • “About Us”
  • “Press Room”
  • “Our Brands”
  • Kape’s leadership and company information
  • Links or references to ExpressVPN, Private Internet Access, CyberGhost, Intego, and Webselenese
  • Social media and corporate-policy links

These appear primarily presentational and do not, by themselves, change the substantive privacy terms.

4. AI-model training and customer data

No provision in the supplied diff expressly addresses AI, machine learning, generative AI, model training, or the use of customer data to train AI models.

Accordingly, the diff does not appear to add, remove, or modify:

  • A right to use customer content or personal data for AI training
  • Consent or opt-out mechanisms for AI training
  • Restrictions on using customer data to develop or improve models
  • Disclosures about human review, profiling, or automated decision-making

Any AI-training terms would need to be located elsewhere in the full privacy policy, terms of service, product terms, or applicable notices.

Overall risk assessment

The changes appear mainly administrative and contact-related, with no clear expansion of data-use permissions. However, the supplied extract is incomplete and contains formatting artifacts, so the full policy should be reviewed to confirm whether substantive provisions elsewhere were also changed.

2026-08-22 · Privacy Policy

shrank 7.0% · Observed by clause.watch

Executive Summary

The diff appears to contain mostly formatting, navigation, and contact-information changes. It does not show any express change to how customer data is used, including whether customer data may be used to train AI models.

Important Changes

1. Contact details and methods
  • The privacy-policy contact email appears to be normalized from pd@kape.com. to pd@kape.com in at least one location. This is likely a punctuation correction, not a substantive change.
  • The policy continues to identify Kape’s data-protection contact as:
  • Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou
  • pd@kape.com
  • +35 722 024 992
  • The policy’s general contact options appear to be reformatted and may now refer to:
  • Postal contact using the address “given above”
  • The website contact form
  • A telephone number published on the website “from time to time”
  • An email address published on the website “from time to time”
2. Potentially variable contact information

Referring to telephone and email details as published on the website “from time to time” gives Kape flexibility to update those details without necessarily amending the policy. Customers should verify the current information before submitting a rights request or other privacy inquiry.

This could create practical uncertainty about where requests must be sent, although it does not appear to change the underlying privacy rights.

3. Children’s data

The diff includes surrounding text concerning the underage policy, including a statement that users represent and warrant that they are at least 13 and instructions to contact Kape if a child under 13 has shared information.

The extract does not clearly show a substantive revision to the minimum age, the handling of children’s data, or the deletion process. The relevant language should be reviewed in the full document to confirm whether any wording—not visible in this diff—has changed.

4. Website navigation and footer content

The removal of items such as “About Us,” “Press Room,” “Our Brands,” and footer/social-media content appears to be a website-layout or document-extraction change. It does not, on its face, alter the privacy terms.

AI Model Training

No provision in the supplied diff expressly:

  • Authorizes use of customer data to train, fine-tune, or evaluate AI models;
  • Prohibits such use;
  • Expands data-sharing rights for AI development; or
  • Changes opt-out, deletion, or objection rights relating to AI training.

Accordingly, the diff provides no evidence of a new AI-training permission or restriction. The full privacy policy should still be checked for terms such as “machine learning,” “artificial intelligence,” “automated systems,” “model training,” “service improvement,” or “analytics,” because those provisions are not included in the supplied changes.

Structured Summary of Important Changes

1. AI-model training and customer-data use
  • No changes expressly address AI, machine learning, generative AI, model training, or the use of customer data to develop or improve AI models.
  • The diff does not add or remove language concerning:
  • Training or fine-tuning AI models;
  • Using customer content, communications, telemetry, or personal data for AI purposes;
  • Sharing data with AI providers;
  • Opt-out rights or consent for AI training; or
  • Retention of data used in AI systems.
  • Accordingly, the customer’s existing rights and the company’s existing data-use permissions appear unchanged based on this diff alone. The full privacy policy should still be reviewed for any existing AI-related provisions not shown here.
2. Updated privacy-contact information

Several references to contact details have been added or standardized:

  • The email address pd@kape.com is added for privacy-rights requests and general privacy inquiries.
  • The same address is listed as the contact for reports involving information from children under 13.
  • The data protection officer’s contact details now include:
  • Dr. Venetia Argyropoulou;
  • pd@kape.com; and
  • +35 722 024 992.
  • A general company contact email, support@kape.com, is added to the company’s postal/contact information.

Legal significance: These changes improve transparency and provide clearer channels for exercising data-protection rights. They may also help demonstrate compliance with notice and data-subject-rights obligations, such as under the GDPR, where applicable.

3. Contact-method wording

The policy now states that users may contact the company:

  • By post;
  • Through the website contact form;
  • By telephone using the number published on the website; or
  • By email using the address published on the website.

The wording appears to replace or clarify references to a specific contact number or email address with dynamically published details.

Potential risk: Referring to contact details “published on our website from time to time” can create uncertainty if the website contains outdated, inconsistent, or inaccessible information. The company should ensure all contact channels remain accurate and operational.

4. Formatting and website-navigation additions

The diff adds website-navigation and corporate-footer content, including “About Us,” “Press Room,” company brands, social-media text, and corporate links. These additions appear administrative rather than substantive privacy-policy changes.

Overall assessment

The changes are primarily contact-information, accessibility, and formatting updates. No new customer-data-use permission or AI-training provision is visible.

Summary

The provided diff indicates that approximately 99 words were removed, but it does not identify which words, clauses, or sections were deleted.

AI Training and Data Use

  • No definitive assessment is possible regarding whether the customer’s data may now be used to train AI models.
  • The deleted language could have:
  • Prohibited or restricted use of customer data for model training;
  • Required customer consent before such use;
  • Limited training to aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified data;
  • Explained ownership of inputs, outputs, or derived data;
  • Required deletion, security controls, or confidentiality protections; or
  • Disclaimed any use of customer data for product improvement or AI development.
  • If any of these protections were removed, the customer may face increased uncertainty or broader provider rights to use its data.

Other Potential Risks

Because the actual deleted text is not included, it is also impossible to determine whether the revision affects:

  • Data ownership or licensing rights;
  • Confidentiality obligations;
  • Security and privacy protections;
  • Retention and deletion requirements;
  • Service-provider access to data;
  • Liability, indemnification, or regulatory compliance; or
  • Customer termination or audit rights.

Recommended Follow-Up

Provide the actual 99-word deletion, or the redline showing the affected language. Particular attention should be given to any deleted terms containing “train,” “training,” “improve,” “develop,” “machine learning,” “artificial intelligence,” “model,” “inputs,” “outputs,” “aggregated,” “de-identified,” or “customer data.”

Summary

The supplied diff does not include the actual amended legal language. It only states:

> “Added approximately 99 words to the document”

Because the additions, deletions, and replacements are not shown, it is not possible to determine:

  • What contractual obligations or rights changed;
  • Whether liability, indemnity, confidentiality, security, or termination provisions were affected;
  • Whether customer data may now be used for artificial intelligence or machine-learning purposes;
  • Whether the provider may use customer data to train, fine-tune, evaluate, or improve AI models;
  • Whether data may be shared with affiliates, subcontractors, or third-party AI providers;
  • Whether customer data may be retained after termination or used in aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized form; or
  • Whether the customer has any opt-out, approval, deletion, or audit rights.
AI Training Risk

No AI-training provision can be identified from the information provided. The statement that approximately 99 words were added does not reveal whether those words:

  • Authorize training on customer content or usage data;
  • Limit training to de-identified or aggregated information;
  • Restrict use to service improvement;
  • Permit human review or disclosure to third parties;
  • Allow use of data after the agreement ends; or
  • Create exceptions for prompts, outputs, metadata, or telemetry.
Conclusion

A substantive risk analysis requires the actual diff text, including the words enclosed in {}, [], and []{}. The current material is insufficient to identify any legal change or new customer-data/AI-model risk.
