People should not have to stitch together five policy pages to get one answer.

Hello Cisco team,
I am trying to understand the public data-use posture for Cisco Webex AI Assistant.
Could you publish or point me to one plain-language disclosure that clearly states:
- whether prompts, files, chats, or other user content are used to train or improve AI models
- whether the answer depends on user or administrator settings
- how to opt out where applicable
- what is said about retention and human review
The Production AI Institute's AI Data Use Index currently records the public answer as: "Cisco says Webex Assistant does not retain customer data for machine-learning training, and that Microsoft does not use Cisco customer content to improve Azure OpenAI models."
A clearer single disclosure would help users, buyers, and reviewers understand the product without stitching together multiple policy pages.
Thank you.
Public post
For people who want to ask in public without sounding unserious.
I want a clearer public answer from Cisco about how Cisco Webex AI Assistant uses people's data for AI training, opt-outs, retention, and human review.
Current public summary from the PAI AI Data Use Index:
"Cisco says Webex Assistant does not retain customer data for machine-learning training, and that Microsoft does not use Cisco customer content to improve Azure OpenAI models."
People should not have to guess.
