Many generative AI tools collect data from the information that you input into the AI tool. When these AI tools collect data, any information that you enter may be used to develop and train the tool. If you input confidential or personal information into a generative AI tool, it may harvest that information. Consider reviewing the privacy settings and policies of AI tools before using them. Pay careful attention to if they specify what the AI tool will do with your data. Do not enter sensitive information about yourself or others into generative AI tools.
Examples of AI privacy concerns:
We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any tool you use. Not all providers will have the same degree of transparency in how they use your data. If you are unable to find a privacy policy or a usage agreement for the specific tool, it may be best to find another tool with clearer terms around their data usage, storage, and retention.

These sample conversations may be reviewed by trained reviewers and kept for up to three years, separately from your Google Account.
Can I delete my data from my Google Account?
Yes, there's a link to managing your data in Bard. You can always turn off saving your Bard activity and you can always delete your Bard activity from your account at myactivity.google.com/product/bard. Even when Bard activity is off, your conversations will be saved with your account for a short period of time to allow us to provide the service and process any feedback.
