# Privacy Batch API

Change privacy settings for a Einstein Recommendations profile using the privacy batch API. The batch identifies the profiles and specifies which privacy actions to perform on each profile.

The privacy batch API includes these resources:

- [Create a Batch](/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/pb-create-batch.md). This API resource creates a batch of privacy setting changes. The call returns a batch_id you then use to GET the status of the batch changes.
- [Get Batch Status](/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/pb-get-batch-status.md). This API resource checks the status of a batch of privacy settings changes. The call returns the status of each change being made to the profiles.
