Clear privacy choices, with protections built in

Whether you’re using ChatGPT for work, learning, or everyday tasks, you’re in control of your data. We make your privacy choices easy to find and manage, with protections built in to help keep your information safe.

Your privacy controls in ChatGPT

How we protect your privacy

We build privacy protections into how our models are trained, how our products work, and how our teams operate.

We don’t sell your data

We don’t share your conversations with advertisers or marketing partners, and we never sell your data to anyone.

We secure your information

We use multiple safeguards to help protect your information and account—including encryption, expert security testing, and monitoring for suspicious activity.

You control your data

You can access, export, and delete the ChatGPT conversations and data associated with your account. You also control whether your chats are used to improve our models.

We review every launch with privacy in mind

We build privacy safeguards into our models and every feature, from design to launch to post-launch monitoring.

We reduce the amount of personal information used to improve ChatGPT

Our models are built to learn about the world, not about private individuals. We work to identify and remove personal identifiers from training sets wherever possible.

Our models are trained to avoid private or sensitive information

We actively train our models to decline when asked for private information about real people—like addresses or contact information. We continuously test and update these safeguards so the models get better over time.
