Choosing an AI provider is partly a privacy decision: does it train on your prompts, how long does it keep them, and will it stand behind GDPR? This tool puts the leading providers side by side on the dimensions that actually decide whether a model is safe to use with real business or customer data.
How it works
Pick two or more providers. The tool builds a comparison table across five privacy dimensions — training on your data, retention period, third-party sharing, enterprise/API protections, and GDPR posture — with a short, plain-language summary in each cell. Where a provider’s consumer tier differs from its API or enterprise tier, the cell calls that out, because the difference is frequently the whole story.
What to watch for
The single most common mistake is assuming the consumer chat tier and the API tier share a privacy policy. They usually do not. Free consumer products are far more likely to train on your inputs by default, while paid API and enterprise plans frequently exclude your traffic from training and offer data-processing agreements (DPAs), zero-retention modes, and signed GDPR terms.
Tips and notes
- Training opt-out ≠ zero retention. They are separate switches. Confirm both if you need both.
- A DPA is the deciding artifact for EU data — a marketing claim of “GDPR compliant” is not the same as a signed Data Processing Agreement.
- This table is a shortlisting aid, not legal advice. Always verify the live terms on the provider’s own legal pages, and pair this with the Data Residency Checker for region requirements.
