Apple said Wednesday its virtual personal assistant Siri protects users data privacy on their devices and does not send user information to marketers.

Apple sought to allay privacy concerns about its Siri voice assistant days after it agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit related to the feature, saying it has never sold data collected by Siri or used it for advertising purposes.

Apple has never used Siri data to build marketing profiles, never made it available for advertising, and never sold it to anyone for any purpose. We are constantly developing technologies to make Siri even more private, and will continue to do so.
