We will explain everything you should Configure to maximize your privacy In ChatGPT, Openai’s artificial intelligence chat. One of the methods with which the company trains its AI is using conversations to learn, and this may not be good for your privacy, but there are some things that you can take into account to improve it.
Starting from the basis that total privacy hardly exists in a tool that collects your conversations, there are some things you can do to improve it. In addition, we will also tell you other tips that you must take into account Beyond the configurations.
We are going to base these tips using the Chatgpt web version, and with captures of it. However, All adjustments are available in other versionsincluding mobile and desktop applications.
Use temporary chats


The first resource that you must take into account is Use temporary chats for sensitive conversations or have data you want to keep private. By pressing the Temporary chat You will generate something similar to the private windows of a browser.
These chats are not going to be included in the Chatgpt conversations history. Besides, Its content will not be used to train The company’s GPT models, nor will the internal memory of Chatgpt. Come on, they are chats that will be as if they had not happened.
Do not regal your data to improve chatgpt


By default, what you write in chatgpt will be used to train other models, also your voice recordings or videos. However, you can configure the application so that What you write is used to train artificial intelligenceand that your data is not used.
To do this, you have to enter the configuration of the chatgpt app or website that you use. There you must enter the section Data controls within Accountand deactivate the option of Improve model for all. When deactivating it, OpenAi will no longer use your content.
Prevent you from using other chats


Chatgpt stores by default some key data from your past chats, and these sometimes They can appear in new conversations. For example, yesterday I went to draw and put me a shirt of a music band on which I asked him a month ago.
If you like avoid using past chats In your new conversations, you have to enter the configuration, go to the section of Personalizationand Disable the option Refer to stored memories which will appear activated by default.
Manage saving memories


Within the options of Personalization where deactive the use of memories, you have An option to manage your saved memoirs. This will allow you to review all those key data that Chatgpt has stored to use a little later.
On this screen to manage the Chatgpt memoriesyou will be able to delete key data that you do not want to take into account in the other chats or directly Delete all stored memories that have been collected so far.
Manage your chat history


Chatgpt has a history column where you can See all the conversations you have had So far with artificial intelligence. These can be useful to recover concrete chats of specific issues, especially if you put identifiable names and just ask about one thing in them.
However, if you do not want them to appear there or if you do not want other people with access to your chatgpt to see what you have written, you have the option of Eliminate or file them. If the archives will remain to recover them whenever you want without appearing in the history, but if you eliminate the conversation it will disappear forever.
Delete your whole history


If what you want is to erase all the history Of conversations with chatgpt, you don’t need to go one by one. Go to the configuration and enter the section of Data controls. Here you will have the option to erase the complete history of all the conversations you have had.
Manage your shared links


Chatgpt allows you to create a link to a conversation and share it with other people. But I advise you that efforts from time to time your shared links so that these conversations do not end up reaching people with whom you do not want them to have them.
To do this you have to enter the chatgpt configuration. Once inside, go to the section of Data controlsand inside click on the button Manage of Shared links. Here you can see the assets and delete them.
Take care of the files you say and what you do


Another advisable thing when using chatgpt is Do not mention personal data In your chats, as well as addresses or passwords. Openai takes technical precautions so that what you write is temporarily stored only, but it never hurts to maximize your precautions to prevent something more than it should reach.
Also Be careful with the photos you upload and the metadata that they may have. I even recommend that if you are going to use chatgpt for work issues, you have separate accounts for projects or separate the personal and professional and thus isolate risks.
Care with extensions and accounts linked


And finally, remember Avoid linking apps or plugins that are not necessary To your Chatgpt account to avoid extracting data from what you do. Equal to the reverse. Also be careful to link other cloud services to Chatgpt, on all those that have work or sensitive data.
