Privacy Matters
Protect sensitive credentials, datasets, and proprietary code.

What is Privacy Matters?
Maintaining data privacy is vital in modern digital workflows. While enterprise-tier accounts (such as ChatGPT Enterprise, Team plans, or API deployments) typically guarantee data security and isolation, free consumer tiers often use conversation inputs for model training. Always audit your tool settings and avoid sharing confidential information.

Privacy Matters FAQ
Does my AI assistant train on everything I type?
On most free consumer plans, yes—inputs can be used to train future models. You can opt out in your account privacy settings, and enterprise or API plans typically do not train on user inputs.
