Plain-English summary
The company may use your inputs and outputs to train and improve its AI models, even if you opt out, under specific conditions such as safety reviews or explicit reporting (data_use-1, data_use-2). The company disclaims responsibility for the data practices of any third-party services you interact with (data_use-3). Additionally, while data is generally anonymized for training, it may be re-identified if your content is flagged for harmful content or policy violation to enforce the company's terms (data_use-4).

Critical issues that pose a significant and immediate threat to users.
Policies about how your data is collected, processed, and shared.
The company may use your inputs and outputs to train and improve its AI models, unless you opt out through your account settings.
Why it matters: Your conversations and actions within the service may be used to train and improve the company's AI models, which could potentially expose personal data if not properly handled.
We may use your Inputs and Outputs to train and improve Anthropic AI models, unless you opt out through your account settings.
Even if you opt out of model training, your inputs and outputs may still be used if your conversations are flagged for safety review or if you explicitly report the materials to the company.
Why it matters: Even after opting out, certain data may still be collected and used for model improvement if conversations are flagged for safety review or if you report materials, potentially limiting the effectiveness of your opt-out choice.
Even if you opt-out, we will use Inputs and Outputs for model improvement when: (i) your conversations are flagged for safety review to improve our ability to detect harmful content, enforce our policies, or advance AI safety research, or (ii) you've explicitly reported the materials to us (for example via our feedback mechanisms).
The company states it does not control, and is not responsible for, the data practices of Third-Party Services.
Why it matters: When interacting with third-party services through the product, your data may be subject to those third parties' privacy policies, for which the company disclaims responsibility, potentially leading to varied data handling practices beyond the product's direct control.
Anthropic does not control, and is not responsible for, the data practices of Third-Party Services.
If systems flag inputs or outputs for harmful content or policy violations, the company may re-identify the content with the user to enforce its Terms of Service or Usage Policy.
Why it matters: While data is generally disassociated from your user ID for training, if your content is flagged for harmful content, the company may re-identify it to enforce its policies, potentially linking content back to your account.
However, we may re-identify the Inputs or Outputs to enforce our Terms of Service or Usage Policy with the responsible user if necessary.
Conditions and processes for canceling services, renewals, and refunds.
Less obvious but important clauses that could be disadvantageous to users.
Safeguards and rights that benefit the user.
You have the right to request the deletion of personal data collected from you when using the services, with some exceptions.
Why it helps: This provides users with control over their personal data, allowing them to request its removal from the service, which can enhance privacy.
Deletion: the right to request that we delete personal data collected from you when you use our Services, subject to certain exceptions.
You have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal data retained by the company, and efforts will be made to correct it, though it may not always be possible due to technical complexity.
Why it helps: This allows users to ensure the accuracy of their personal data, which is important for maintaining correct records, even if technical limitations may sometimes prevent corrections in outputs.
Correction: the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal data Anthropic retains about you, subject to certain exceptions. Please note that we cannot guarantee the factual accuracy of Outputs.
