Apple has affirmatively stated that Siri data has never been shared or sold for advertising purposes. The tech giant settled a privacy lawsuit for $95 million, denying any wrongdoing and emphasizing its commitment to user privacy. Apple’s reputation for safeguarding user data is well-known, with many features operating solely on devices to prevent data from being sent to servers. Despite some data, like audio requests, being sent to Apple’s servers, the company assures that user consent is required for any data storage. If users opt-in to improve Siri, their data is anonymized and not used for marketing. Those concerned about privacy can easily disable Siri data collection in settings.
