Agents from Apple

Graded on their own pages. They act in your name, so each gets Agent Safeguards as well as a Policy grade.

The company grade stays about the account. A weak agent doesn’t quietly pull it down, and a strong company grade doesn’t vouch for an agent. All agents →

9 Sep 2026Apple now lets you opt in to having your data used to improve Siri and Apple Intelligence. Its foundation-models page, updated September 9, 2026, says your personal data and interactions are "never used to train our foundation models unless you explicitly choose to help improve them." Before, the page said only that Apple does not use your personal data or interactions to train them. Training stays off unless you opt in.policy change

Score unchanged (2). On 9 September 2026 Apple added an opt-in to help improve Siri and Apple Intelligence, and its foundation-models page now says personal data and interactions are never used for training "unless you explicitly choose to help improve them." Under R4 a 2 means no training on personal content by default, which still holds. The cells now state the opt-in instead of an unqualified no-training claim.

How to request your data from Apple

  1. Go to https://privacy.apple.com — Apple's data-request entry point.
  2. privacy.apple.com → Obtain a copy of your data.
  3. Expected wait: within 7 days (14-day download window) — Apple's stated turnaround (we haven't independently timed a request yet).

These steps reflect Apple's documented process as of Jun 2026. The wait time is the company's stated figure, not yet independently measured by us.
