- Does Llama train on my data?
- Self-hosting gives full data control within your own EU infrastructure, a strong GDPR argument.
- What should I watch out for with AI in graphic design & design?
- When it comes to AI imagery, pay attention to two things: rights and data. Rights: with Recraft, images from the free plan of Recraft itself are not licensed for commercial use, and only the paid plans give you full ownership. Adobe says it trains its Firefly models on licensed material and public domain content, not on user content. Data: with Kittl, training on your content is switched on by default in the Starter and Professional plans (the administrator can turn it off), while it is off in Organization and Enterprise. CELUM (Berlin) states in its privacy policy that data is also processed outside Europe, including in Canada and the US. If you want to keep your brand files within the EU: Frontify offers hosting in Frankfurt, Bynder on AWS Frankfurt and Figma on Azure in the EU. Penpot can be self-hosted. Do not upload client material under NDA to a free account, and record in your quote whether and how you use AI.
