What its terms say.
Copied word for word from the maker's terms, with any lawsuits or complaints and their status when we last checked.
“When you use our services for individuals (Free, Plus, Pro), we may use your content to train our models.”
Our note: Same product as the ChatGPT assistant row; listed here because people use it for drafting. Opt-out: "To opt out, turn off Improve the model for everyone under Settings > Data controls in ChatGPT". Business/Enterprise/Edu/API are not used for training by default.
