Better precautions: take care of your data when using ChatGPT and DALL - E
The free and Plus versions of ChatGPT allow the OpenAI algorithm to continue learning with the data entered, so that companies can pass on internal information to third parties.
Saving the history could also be deactivated in ChatGPT, but this setting only applies per browser and should only be used in special cases.
The Open AI API does not learn with customer data by default.
Until October 25,2023 there was a Google form to fill out.
Now there is a privacy portal where you can prohibit the training of your data:
The first time you enter, you have to click on View Past Requests at the top, enter your mail address (from ChatGPT login) and wait for the mail invitation, in the mail open the link and then click on Make Privacy Request at the top and forbid future training of your data.
That's it, with the new solution you will see within a short time, it took me less than 5 minutes that your request was accepted.
Data erasure for personal data
You can now also use the privacy process to request data deletion.
ChatGPT Plus and Free now also offer deactivation of training within the GUI
ChatGPT Plus and free users can now deactivate the training of the model directly in the settings, who has performed privacy process whose slider is already set to deactivated.
ChatGPT Team users generally do not train and cannot adjust the slider.
Click on the user name at the bottom right, then Settings, Data control ....
But be careful, if you create GPTs, you must also deactivate the slider for training in the advanced settings, which is easy to overlook, so it is better to use the privacy process from above or ChatGPT Team!
