Web interface:

To disable chat history and model training, navigate to ChatGPT > Data Controls. While history is disabled, new conversations won’t be used to train and improve our models, and won’t appear in the history sidebar. To monitor for abuse, we will retain all conversations for 30 days before permanently deleting.

Please note, this will not prevent unauthorized browser add-ons or malware on your computer from storing your history.
