Across Google and Workspace, we’ve long shared robust privacy commitments that outline how we protect user data and prioritize privacy. Generative AI doesn’t change these commitments — it actually reaffirms their importance.
Our privacy commitments to all Workspace users
Generative AI does not change our foundational privacy protections for giving users choice and control over their data. To that end, here are key facts about how Workspace data is handled.
- Your data is your data. The content that you put into Google Workspace services (emails, documents, etc.) is yours. We never sell your data, and you can delete your content or export it.
- Your data stays in Workspace. We do not use your Workspace data to train or improve the underlying generative AI and large language models that power Gemini, Search, and other systems outside of Workspace without permission.
- Your privacy is protected. Interactions with intelligent Workspace features, such as accepting or rejecting spelling suggestions, or reporting spam, are anonymized and/or aggregated and may be used to improve or develop helpful Workspace features like spam protection, spell check, and autocomplete. This extends to new features we are currently developing like improved prompt suggestions that help Workspace users get the best results from Gemini features. These features are developed with strict privacy protections that keep users in control.
- Your content is not used for ads targeting. As a reminder, Google does not collect, scan, or use your content in Google Workspace services for advertising purposes.
These are the privacy commitments that Workspace extends to all of its users. But they aren’t just words. To ensure we continually meet these high standards, independent auditors validate our practices against international standards and best practices.
Specific commitments for Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Slides, Sheets, Meet & Vids
For users with the Google One AI Premium plan, when using Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Sheets, Slides, Meet, and Vids, your data is yours and under your control. Whether you ask Gemini to summarize an email or document, write a blog post, or add a unique image to your slide:
- Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Slides, Sheets, Meet, and Vids uses your content in Google Workspace to provide more useful responses to your prompts and doesn't use your content to train or improve Gemini or other generative AI models.
- Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Slides, Sheets, Meet, and Vids doesn't store your prompt or the generated output without your permission.
Note: For consumer users enrolled in the Google Workspace Labs program, use of Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Slides, Sheets, Vids, and Meet is covered by the Google Workspace Labs Privacy Notice and Terms for Personal Accounts.
