Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Farm data (plots, yields, inputs) is commercially sensitive and partly falls under European rules on agricultural data (EU Data Act). Check whether cloud platforms use field data for model training and whether data is stored outside the EU. AI advice on crop protection is supportive only, the proof-of-use obligations and spraying licences remain with the farmer. Animal data in livestock farming may contain personal data of owners.

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.
