About Spotlight Suggestions & Privacy
Spotlight Suggestions shows suggestions from the Internet, iTunes, App Store, movie
showtimes, locations nearby, and more in Spotlight and Look Up.
When you use Spotlight or Look Up, your search queries, the Spotlight Suggestions you
select, and related usage data will be sent to Apple. Search results found on your Mac
will not be sent. If you have Location Services on your Mac turned on, when you make a
search query to Spotlight or use Look Up the location of your Mac at that time will be
sent to Apple. Searches for common words and phrases will be forwarded from Apple to
Microsoft's Bing search engine. These searches are not stored by Microsoft. To provide
you with more relevant music and video suggestions, if your Mac can access music or
video subscription services, then information such as the names of the subscription
services and types of subscriptions may be sent to Apple. Your account name, number
and password will not be sent to Apple. Location, search queries, and usage
information sent to Apple will only be used by Apple to make Spotlight Suggestions
more relevant and to improve other Apple products and services.
If you do not want your Spotlight and Look Up search queries and Spotlight Suggestions
usage data sent to Apple, you can turn off Spotlight Suggestions. Simply deselect the
checkbox for "Allow Spotlight Suggestions in Look Up" and the checkbox for Spotlight
Suggestions in the Search Results tab in the Spotlight preference pane found within
System Preferences on your Mac. If you turn off Spotlight Suggestions, Spotlight will
only search the contents of your Mac and Look Up will only search the dictionary on
your Mac.
You can turn off Location Services for Spotlight Suggestions in the Security & Privacy
pane of System Preferences on your Mac by clicking on the Privacy tab, selecting
Location Services, selecting Details next to System Services, then deselecting
Location-Based Suggestions. If you turn off Location Services on your Mac, your
precise location will not be sent to Apple. To deliver relevant search suggestions, Apple
may use the IP address of your Internet connection to approximate your location by
matching it to a geographic region.
By using these features, you agree and consent to Apple's and its subsidiaries' and
agents' transmission, collection, maintenance, processing, and use of this information
as described above.
Information collected by Apple will be treated in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy,
which can be found at www.apple.com/privacy. Not all features of Spotlight Suggestions
may be available in all languages or regions and some features of Spotlight
Suggestions may vary by region.
