Gemini Apps
Careful
Google's Gemini Apps Privacy Hub says that when Keep Activity is on, chats can be used to train generative models and a subset can be read by human reviewers. Reviewed data can be kept for up to three years. When Keep Activity is off, future chats are not used to train models unless you send feedback, and they are kept with the account for 72 hours. The hub does not say whether Keep Activity starts on, so check the setting before anyone pastes business data into a personal Google account.

Trains on your data by default
Unknown
If Keep Activity is on, Google says it uses activity to develop and improve services, including training generative AI models, with help from human reviewers. If it is off and you do not submit feedback, future chats are not used to improve Gemini's AI models. The default position of the setting is not stated on the page we read.How to opt out
Steps
Turn off Keep Activity in Gemini Apps Activity. You can also use a temporary chat, which is not used to train models. Feedback you choose to send can still be used to improve the apps. Turning the setting off does not delete data already reviewed.Data retention
What they keep
With Keep Activity off, temporary chats and those chats are retained with the account for 72 hours. Chats that human reviewers look at are retained for up to three years and are not deleted when you delete activity.BAA / HIPAA
