ASUS Privacy Policy / ASUS EU Data Act Policy
The fetched new version no longer contains the actual ASUS Privacy Policy or EU Data Act Policy text at all. In place of the ~300-line policy (covering what data ASUS collects, how it's used, retention, third-party sharing, cross-border transfers, cookies, security, user rights, children's privacy, and the EU Data Act disclosures), the new document is just a short cookie-consent banner snippet that links out to the real Privacy Policy page. This strongly looks like a scraping artifact — the crawler likely captured a cookie banner pop-up instead of the actual policy page — rather than ASUS deliberately deleting its privacy policy. We cannot verify from this diff whether the underlying policy terms actually changed, because none of the substantive policy text is present to compare. Treat this report as 'the compared page no longer shows the policy text,' not as confirmation that ASUS removed consumer protections.
This fetched page no longer shows the actual privacy policy
The page we captured this time contains only a cookie-banner blurb instead of the full privacy policy ASUS previously published here. That means someone relying on this specific page right now would no longer see any explanation of what data ASUS collects, how it's used, who it's shared with, or their rights — only cookie settings. This is most likely because our fetch grabbed a cookie pop-up instead of the real policy page, not because ASUS deleted its privacy commitments, but we can't confirm that without checking the live policy URL directly.
What you can do — Visit ASUS's Privacy Policy page directly (the link in the cookie banner points to https://www.asus.com/Terms_of_Use_Notice_Privacy_Policy/Privacy_Policy) to confirm the full policy is still published and unchanged before assuming anything was removed.

The new text briefly describes that ASUS uses essential cookies (for login/security) plus analytics, advertising, and video cookies, and tells users they can manage preferences via a button or the 'Cookie Settings' footer link, with a link back to the full Privacy Policy's cookies section.
ALSO IN THIS CHANGE, NOT TIED TO ONE PASSAGE
- − REMOVEDEntire Privacy Policy and EU Data Act Policy text is absent from the new fetch
All sections describing what personal data ASUS collects, how it's used, how long it's kept, who it's shared with, cross-border transfers, cookie details, security practices, how to manage your data, children's privacy, sensitive data, and the EU Data Act disclosures are no longer present in the new version. Only a short cookie-banner notice remains, which links to the Privacy Policy page elsewhere.
