In more detail
Conversations with AI services may be stored, reviewed for safety or used to improve models, depending on the provider and your settings. Many tools let you opt out of training, use temporary chats or delete your history.
Avoid sharing passwords, ID numbers, health records or confidential work data unless your organisation has approved the tool. For sensitive material, consider local AI.
