Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

User-generated content, including chats and messages, may be used to improve and develop Character.AI's underlying models.

Interpretive note: The excerpt uses the phrasing 'Allow your content to be used,' which may imply an opt-in or permission structure rather than a unilateral data use right; the canonical claim states the primary established fact without resolving the ambiguity of whether this is mandatory or permissive. The privacy protection statement and the framing of mutual benefit were omitted as secondary propositions.
