Six major web and Internet service companies, including AT&T Inc, Twitter Inc and Alphabet Inc's Google, will detail their consumer data privacy practices to a US Senate panel on Sept 26, according to a congressional statement.

The Senate hearing will give the six technology-related companies, which also include Amazon.com Inc, Apple Inc and Charter Communications Inc companies "an opportunity to explain their approaches to privacy," said Republican US Senate commerce committee chairman John Thune.
