ai.KMITL integrates with external AI providers:

When you interact with these services:

  • •Your messages are sent to the respective AI provider
  • •Each provider has its own privacy policy
  • •We recommend reviewing their policies at their websites
  • •API keys you provide are sent only to your designated provider

Data Retention on AI Provider Servers

For every AI model that supports requesting no data retention, we actively request that all API calls have zero data retention on cloud servers. This means:

  • Your conversations are not stored by the AI provider for training purposes
  • Your data is processed in real-time and not retained after the response is generated
  • We configure all applicable models with the strictest no-retention policies available

Important: Despite these protections, you should never send sensitive, confidential, or private data through the platform. While we implement the strongest available safeguards, users remain responsible for the information they choose to share with AI models.

We are not responsible for third-party privacy practices.
