Apple Inc. has clarified its stance on Siri's data usage following a $95 million settlement of a class action lawsuit that accused the company of secretly recording users' conversations through the voice assistant. Apple stated that it has never used Siri data to build marketing profiles, nor has it made this data available for advertising or sold it to any third party. The company emphasized its commitment to privacy, noting that Siri processes requests on-device whenever possible and only retains audio recordings if users opt-in to help improve the service. This statement comes after social media users and commentators interpreted the settlement as an admission of the allegations, prompting Apple to reaffirm its privacy policies.
