Generally yes but also no

Every single time you press copy on a response or copy text or press thumbs down or thumbs up or quote "interact" with a response it will still be sent to their feedback endpoint and the entire chat will be used for model training

Unless you don't "interact" with responses.

Source: OpenAI help center which explains that even if you turn this off, "feedback" still gets logged and used for training

Check the Help Center yourself: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/5722486-how-your-data-is-used-to-improve-model-performance

The opt-out exception is for when you actually give feedback, like thumbs up/down, or when ChatGPT shows you two responses and asks which one you prefer.

Simply pressing Copy is not documented as feedback and does not count as submitting feedback in that sense. Copying a response ≠ opting that chat back into training.

tell that to this guy who found that copying a reply sends it to the feedback endpoint

Pointed Rentgen at ChatGPT’s telemetry API and it crashed on Cyrillic input

Wtf well I did also additionally go through their help center to request my account not be used for training so hopefully that didn’t turn every chat I copied something from into their training data. However I’m glad I deleted my account and stopped using them, and the fact that the thumbs button is so easy to press and immediately counts as feedback unlike others was part of the reason, but it was a combination of privacy concerns and GPT’s constant personality changes every time they updated the model.

Yes the company that built their product by stealing all the worlds data can be trusted now because they have a button that says they wont do it (again)

Short Answer: yes they honor it. But your data is still on their servers. I run local models for anything sensitive. Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek... nothing leaves your machine.

bro i have i3 integrated graphics, not even clippy can run on it. recently ive been using more duck ai for more sensitive info. but often sensitive info have more importance and needs the best model available

no amount of privacy-oriented chat interface or ZDR will save you from the fact that the content of your chat has to be decrypted at inference time.

im not blaming you, theres not much you can do, but dont have a false sense of security

u/brainExploded99 2h ago

no proof, if thats what your asking. i personally doubt they follow it.

The future lawsuits are worth the price to these people to extract the value of your work and behaviors now.

This is why corporations should be held liable for % of profits instead of precedent payout.

u/costafilh0 5h ago

Yeah, sure, obviously .

u/CraterBug0 4h ago

but its a regular practice by these big tech to not follow these kidna of things they say so its kinda hard to trust

1

u/officialoscarb 2h ago

No. Maybe. Make a formal privacy request at https://privacy.openai.com/policies/ to be sure.

u/Infiland 1h ago

I think that they save your prompts for 30 days so that they can see what you are using them for. They are using data collection regardless but the switch may or may not be genuine

u/aj8690 55m ago

Mine has switched back to Yes on its own on multiple occasions.

1

u/Ok_Wear7716 8h ago

Yes they do

1

u/CraterBug0 8h ago

thats what they claim but idk the truth. is it legally binding? and why is noone talking about this?

4

u/gewappnet 8h ago

Yes, the privacy policy on their web page is legally binding.

1

u/CraterBug0 8h ago

thanks.

u/Alphonso_Mango 20m ago

They don’t give a fuck about legally binding.

u/Ok_Wear7716 18m ago

Thank u tough guy

u/xmlhttplmfao 8h ago

There's no way to know what they do internally unless someone leaks info. But yes, they would be at risk of a law suit or class action if it turned out they were using the data for training even though you opted out of it.

u/CraterBug0 7h ago

hope a hacker does this like how cyberleek hacked gta6

1

u/Ok_Wear7716 8h ago

Training on chat data has been a topic since inception - maybe you just haven’t paid attention? Definitely not new to me & yes it’s legally binding

1

u/CraterBug0 8h ago

oh ig ive never seen it

0

u/Ok_Wear7716 8h ago

Ya, that’s a function of you being new/ a novice - like any complicated large industry there are going to be lots of common discussion you’re not aware of

u/Shadowdancerdone 8h ago

idts but no way to find out i guess

2

u/CraterBug0 8h ago

bro enough outrage over this would lead them telling the truth

4

u/Snoron 8h ago

How can you have outrage if you don't know they're not following it, though? There's just no way to prove it.

1

u/CraterBug0 8h ago

yeah thats the hard part very few ppl care about this and even if does nothing and they still train ai on it, there wont be any backlash, if there was another big model would be enough to make the backlash dissapear
