Do you collect my precise location data through the iOS App?

You can enable location services to allow ChatGPT to use your device's location when providing information. This setting is off by default, and you can enable it in Settings. Learn more about device location sharing.

We do collect your IP address, however. IP addresses can be used to estimate the device’s country, state, and city.

Do you store audio clips from the speech-to-text feature?

No. We send audio clips from our speech-to-text feature to our servers so that we can use our Whisper API to transcribe them, but we don’t retain voice clips beyond what’s necessary to complete the transcription.

Audio clips are also briefly copied to your iOS device’s temporary storage, and are deleted in accordance with your operating system’s design. After transcription, we do not access or use audio clips that are in temporary storage for any purpose.

Do you train your models on audio clips from the speech-to-text feature?

No. We only use the audio clips to prepare a transcription using our Whisper API. The clips are then deleted, which means that we do not use the audio clips to improve our models.

Transcriptions are used as inputs to ChatGPT and appear in conversation histories, which may be used to improve our models (depending on user settings).
