When Gemini Apps Activity is enabled, Google may use your conversations to train and improve its AI models. This is on by default for most users.
Your personal conversations and queries may be permanently incorporated into AI training datasets, potentially influencing how Gemini responds to millions of users.
Use of personal data for AI model training as a default setting may conflict with GDPR's data minimization and purpose limitation principles (Articles 5 and 6) and requires a lawful basis. Under CPRA, use of personal information for AI training beyond the primary service purpose may require opt-out mechanisms for California residents.

When you use Gemini, Google collects your conversations, location, device data, and feedback, and may use this to train AI models and allow human reviewers to read your chats. Your conversation history is stored for up to 3 years by default, even if you delete it from your view, with some data retained for up to 18 months in separate review logs. You can turn off Gemini Apps Activity at myaccount.google.com to stop your conversations from being used for AI model training.
