This provision establishes differentiated data practices across user tiers, requiring explicit opt-in consent for certain user categories before their content enters model training workflows, while establishing an opt-out mechanism for free users. The clause creates distinct operational pathways for content use depending on account type and user election.
Free ChatGPT users operate under terms that permit model training use by default, but allow them to disable this through settings modifications. API users and paid non-API users operate under terms that exclude their content from model training unless they affirmatively elect inclusion through opt-in procedures.

To improve the quality of our services, we analyse texts submitted for translation. We ensure that this analysis cannot be traced back to individual users by anonymising the data before analysis. DeepL Pro subscribers' texts are not used to train our machine translation systems.

"We use your content to provide, maintain, and improve our Services and to develop new programs and services. We will not use content from ChatGPT's memory feature or from API users (unless they opt in) or from paid non-API users (unless they opt in) to train our models. If you are a free user of ChatGPT, you can opt out of model training in your settings.— Excerpt from OpenAI's OpenAI Terms of Use
