Perplexity

Training on by default for consumers

Perplexity says AI data retention is enabled by default for Free, Pro, and Max users, and that users can turn it off in account settings.

PSF standardPSF data protectionAll vendor disclosures
Training use

Consumer data can be used for AI training unless the user disables AI data retention. Enterprise data is stated not to be used for AI training.

How to opt out

Turn off the AI data retention setting in account preferences.

Private content

Perplexity distinguishes consumer and enterprise treatment publicly.

Retention

The help article says consumer opt-outs apply only prospectively and previously collected training data cannot be removed from that use; enterprise uploads have tighter stated retention controls.

Human review

The cited help article focuses on training collection and opt-outs rather than human-review language.
