AI Companions & Privacy: What to Know

AI companion apps are intimate by nature, so privacy deserves a closer look than with a typical app. Here's a practical checklist before you get attached.

What they typically collect

• Your chats (often used to improve models unless you opt out).
• Account info and device data.
• Optional voice or image uploads.

Questions to ask

• Can you delete chats and your account easily?
• Are chats used for training, and can you opt out?
• Is there a clear, readable privacy policy?

Simple habits

• Use a dedicated email for signups.
• Avoid sharing real financial or identifying details in chats.
• Review data settings on first launch, not later.
