What it is

Le Chat's Memory feature stores details from your conversations to personalise future responses, and if you mention health or other sensitive information, this may be saved as a 'Memory' — requiring your explicit consent for that sensitive data.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The provision establishes a dual consent framework for Memory feature operation: general service personalization proceeds under legitimate interest, while storage of sensitive health information requires explicit user consent. This structure creates distinct legal bases for data retention depending on input classification.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

Medium Jul 28, 2026

The updated policy now explicitly includes data accessed through third-party services and integrations users connect to Mistral AI Products as 'Input' data subject to collection and use. The policy removed its prior statement that Input and Output data are not used to train AI models when using Le Chat Enterprise or paid versions of Mistral APIs. This creates operational ambiguity: users of paid services and Enterprise customers no longer have a documented commitment that their data will be excluded from model training, though the privacy policy does not affirmatively state that model training now occurs. The policy also changed language describing product improvement from 'aggregated and anonymous statistics' to 'aggregated or anonymous datasets or statistics,' broadening the stated scope of what can be collected for improvement purposes.
