Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Learning platforms process employees' personal data: progress, assessment results, recordings of role-plays and sometimes evaluations. Sign a data processing agreement, ask where the data is stored and which language models and sub-processors sit behind it (often OpenAI or Azure OpenAI), and insist that your course material and learning data are not used to train models. Do not upload confidential company information to a free chatbot to build a course from it. If you use an AI avatar or a cloned voice of a real colleague, record written consent. Do not let AI independently assess or select employees for roles: AI systems that influence decisions about workers or access to training can be high-risk under the EU AI Act, and AI literacy for staff has been mandatory since February 2025. Check AI-generated course content for factual errors before you publish it.

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.
