Reddit is updating its gender identity and ads policies

Reddit will soon begin using self-disclosed gender identity to personalize ads on the platform. Accounts that will be affected by this change include those that have previously provided gender information during account creation or at a later date via their account settings. It is important to remember that sharing this information is entirely optional and not required when creating a new Reddit account. Those who have never provided gender information will not be affected by this change. Accounts can remove gender identity if they have already provided it by opting out in their account settings, where they can select “I prefer not to say” for their gender.
