Hello Anthropic team,
I am trying to understand the public data-use posture for Claude.
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: "Anthropic describes a model-improvement setting for consumer chats and says incognito chats are not used to improve Claude."
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 Anthropic about how Claude uses people's data for AI training, opt-outs, retention, and human review.
Current public summary from the PAI AI Data Use Index:
"Anthropic describes a model-improvement setting for consumer chats and says incognito chats are not used to improve Claude."
People should not have to guess.

Ask Anthropic to answer these questions for Claude:

2. Which defaults apply by plan, region, or account type?
3. Which settings change the answer, and who controls them?
4. What retention applies to prompts, files, outputs, and metadata?
