Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Never rely blindly on AI output for figures or tax rules: have an accountant verify everything. Mind the confidentiality of client records.

Data is held in the EU by default (Paris cloud, plus EU regions via Bedrock/Azure/Vertex). Open models run entirely in your own environment. Pro/Team/Enterprise and API do not train on your data.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
