This provision authorizes use of user-submitted conversational data for AI model training as a default, with opt-out available through account settings. The scope of data used for training, including inputs that may contain personal information, is relevant for GDPR legitimate interests assessments and U.S. state privacy law compliance.
Interpretive note: The operational scope of the opt-out mechanism is not fully described in the document; it is unclear whether opting out removes previously submitted data from training datasets or only prevents future use.
The updated policy establishes broader data collection practices than previously disclosed. The terms now explicitly state the company collects voice and audio inputs alongside text, whereas prior language specified only text and other materials. Additionally, the policy now discloses collection of precise geolocation information with user consent and authorization to access contacts, emails, calendars, and documents from third-party platforms. You can stop collection of precise location information at any time through the Your Choices section.
View change record →Under this provision, user inputs submitted during conversations with Pi may be used to train Inflection AI's AI models unless the user opts out in account settings. The opt-out is described as available at any time, and the document separately states that outputs are retained indefinitely for the limited purposes in Section 4 of the Terms of Service.

1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision implicates GDPR legitimate interests as the stated legal basis for model training processing for EU users, as reflected in the legal basis table. GDPR Article 21 provides a right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, and users in EU and UK jurisdictions may have broader objection rights than the opt-out mechanism alone conveys. The CCPA and CPRA are engaged for California residents. The FTC Act applies to the accuracy and transparency of the opt-out mechanism. Relevant enforcement authorities include EU and UK Data Protection Authorities, the California Privacy Protection Agency, and the FTC. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High. Use of personal conversational data to train large language models is an area of active regulatory scrutiny in the EU and increasingly in U.S. jurisdictions. The adequacy of the opt-out mechanism as a substitute for the GDPR right to object requires legal evaluation, particularly because legitimate interests processing requires a balancing test that accounts for data subject rights and reasonable expectations. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA users have the most significant exposure because GDPR's legitimate interests basis for model training has been questioned by multiple Data Protection Authorities. Italy's Garante and Ireland's DPC have taken enforcement positions relevant to AI model training using personal data. California residents should evaluate whether the opt-out satisfies CPRA requirements for limiting use of sensitive personal information. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers accessing Inflection AI services via API should confirm whether their data processing agreements explicitly exclude consumer-submitted data from model training pipelines, as the privacy policy notes that the API is governed by separate data protection terms. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should confirm that the opt-out mechanism in account settings is technically effective in removing user data from active training pipelines, not merely from future training runs. Data mapping documentation should reflect whether opted-out user data is segregated or deleted from training datasets retroactively. The legal basis table should be reviewed to confirm that legitimate interests balancing tests have been conducted and documented for model training processing activities.
