Data privacy issues

The data from almost all generative AI tools is processed and stored on US servers and must comply with the privacy laws and regulations applicable there. This legislation is less strict than European laws and regulations.

Most privacy policies state that information about you can be collected. Providers may gather information about your visit, how you use the services, and your interactions. Other details such as your IP address, location, and used devices are also recorded. Your information can (and will) be used for maintaining, improving, and analyzing the tools. In other words: your input will probably be used to further train the GenAI tools.

That is why it is important not to provide GenAI systems with personal data, privacy (sensitive) information or copyright-protected material.
