FIRST SEEN 2026-08-15 · VERSION 20260815_rev01 · COMPARED WITH 20260814_rev01

What changed, in plain language

The only change is a rotating link code behind the same masked opt-out email address in the business-marketing section. The email address itself (PrivacyPolicy@DreamHost.com) and every word of the policy are unchanged, so nothing about your rights or DreamHost's practices has changed.

This change appears to be cosmetic (formatting, typos, or contact details).

Changelog

  1. ± CHANGEDOpt-out email link code refreshed (address unchanged)

    DreamHost's website hides email addresses behind a scrambled code so spam bots can't read them. That scrambled code was regenerated in the business marketing opt-out paragraph. Decoding it shows the same address as before, PrivacyPolicy@DreamHost.com. The visible text and the rest of the policy are identical.
