Introducing Privacy Snapshot
Blog post from Perplexity
Comet, an AI-focused browser and personal assistant, has introduced privacy updates intended to make its controls more visible and easier to manage. A new homepage Privacy Snapshot widget provides quick access to privacy settings, while dedicated Comet Assistant settings let users block assistant actions on selected websites, disable its website interactions and history access, and review how data is used. Comet also includes default protections such as ad blocking, Safe Browsing, local password storage, and regular security updates. Its hybrid computing model keeps credentials and much personal data on the user’s device, though open-tab information and relevant browsing history may be sent to Perplexity servers to complete assistant requests; users can delete this data, and queries classified as personal are automatically deleted within 30 days. The company also encourages standard security practices including software updates, strong passwords, permission reviews, cautious extension use, and thoughtful sharing of website data.
