Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

AI systems for underwriting, premium calculation and claims handling fall under the EU AI Act (high risk for life insurance and health-related policies): human oversight, audit logs and explainability are mandatory. The DNB requires insurers to inform customers when AI has decision-making authority. Insurance data contains health and financial information, special category personal data under the GDPR. Only use solutions with a data processing agreement, EU hosting and explainable AI (XAI).

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.
