What OpenAI says
-
OpenAI states it does not sell personal information and supports U.S. privacy laws like CCPA/CPRA. You can also exercise opt-out and deletion rights. OpenAI+1
Do Not Sell/Share (U.S.) — how to action it now
-
Submit a request via OpenAI’s official Privacy Portal (choose the option aligned with “Do Not Sell or Share / CCPA”). Privacy
-
Turn off training on your chats (prevents OpenAI from using your new conversations to improve models):
ChatGPT → Settings → Data Controls → toggle off “Improve the model for everyone.” OpenAI Help Center+1 -
(Optional) Ask not to train on past content via the Privacy Portal (“do not train on my content”). OpenAI Help Center+1
-
(Optional) Export or delete your data/account if you want a clean slate. Both are available in Settings → Data Controls or through the Privacy Portal. OpenAI Help Center+1
FYI
-
Enterprise/Business workspaces are not used for training by default; admins control retention. If you ever move to a business plan, that’s already covered. OpenAI+1
If you want, I can summarize the exact wording you should submit in the Privacy Portal request so it’s airtight for CPRA (“Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” + “Do Not Use My Personal Information for Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising” + account email).
