Stability AI Privacy Policy

This is Stability AI's privacy policy explaining what personal data the company collects when you use its AI image and content generation tools, including your account details, prompts, usage data, and device information. The most important thing to know is that your prompts and interactions with Stability AI's models may be used to train and improve its AI systems, which means creative inputs you submit could influence future AI model development. If you are based in the EU, UK, or California, you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting Stability AI's privacy team.

This document is Stability AI's privacy policy governing the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data for users of its AI-powered services, websites, and APIs, with legal basis rooted in legitimate interests, contractual necessity, and consent under GDPR and UK GDPR frameworks given its GB-registered entity. The policy obligates Stability AI to respond to data subject access requests (DSARs), deletion requests, and portability requests, while committing to data retention limits and security safeguards; users are simultaneously required to accept broad data use for service improvement and AI model training. A notable deviation from industry standard is the policy's explicit acknowledgment that user-submitted content — including prompts and generated outputs — may be used to improve and train AI models, with limited granularity on opt-out mechanisms for this use case, creating ambiguity around consent under GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) and Art. 22 for automated processing. The policy engages GDPR (UK and EU), CCPA/CPRA for California residents, and implicitly the EU AI Act given Stability AI's generative AI products; material compliance considerations include cross-border data transfers (SCCs or adequacy decisions post-Brexit), the absence of a clearly articulated Data Protection Officer contact, and the broad legitimate interests basis claimed for AI training purposes.
