The updated terms establish explicit procedures for controlling how enterprise customer data is used on Cohere's SaaS Platform. Customers can opt out from having their prompts and generations used to train Cohere models by toggling a setting in their dashboard under 'Data Controls'. The terms state that logged prompts and generations are automatically deleted after 30 days unless needed for legal compliance, customer contracts, or if usage is flagged as potentially violating terms. Cohere also discloses that it logs and monitors platform use for compliance and security, and may review flagged content to enforce policies. You can verify and update your data control settings at any time through your account dashboard.
