South Korea removes DeepSeek from app stores pending privacy review
ai generated text
The Personal Information Protection Commission in South Korea has taken action against DeepSeek's AI chatbot, R1, by suspending its availability for download on the local Apple App Store. This decision comes as a result of a proposal submitted by DeepSeek to temporarily pause downloads of the app, pending a review of its handling of user data.
To prevent further concerns from spreading, the commission recommended that DeepSeek temporarily suspend its service while making the necessary improvements.
It has on the other hand disclosed a privacy policy for the EU and certain other countries, stating that it complies with the domestic laws of those nations.
Deepseek needs to establish a privacy policy specific to Korea.
