Introduction

In our digitalized world, data protection and data security are key issues. This blog post looks at how OpenAI, a leading player in AI technology, and Mindverse, a German AI ecosystem for AI text, content, images and research, are tackling these challenges.

OpenAI and data protection

Consumer vs. business

OpenAI distinguishes between "non-API content" for end users and "API content" for business customers. For consumer services such as ChatGPT, OpenAI assumes responsibility for data processing. When companies use the OpenAI API, they fall under the "API content" category, whereby the company using the API is responsible.

Use of ChatGPT

ChatGPT, widely used in companies, processes entered content in accordance with OpenAI's privacy policy. The critical point here is that no personal data should be processed in order to avoid DSGVO problems.

Problem: Data transmission

The transfer of personal data to OpenAI, in particular to the USA, can be problematic if there is no adequate basis under data protection law.

Do without personal reference

To avoid data protection problems, it is advisable to refrain from using personal data when using ChatGPT.

Data use for training purposes

By default, OpenAI uses data to train its AI algorithms, but users can opt out to prevent this.

Use of the OpenAI API

Lawfulness of data processing

Companies that use the OpenAI API are responsible for the lawfulness of data processing. Various legal bases can be used depending on the purpose of processing.

Order processing and data processing agreement

When using the OpenAI API, there is an order processing relationship between the company and OpenAI. A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) governs the details.

Data transfer to the USA

Data processing by OpenAI takes place in the USA. Companies must ensure that this transfer is based on an appropriate legal basis.

Data protection impact assessment and data security

Companies may have to carry out a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) and implement technical and organizational measures for data security.

Transparency for users

Companies that use the OpenAI API must provide transparent information about data processing.

Checklist for using the OpenAI API

  • Ensure legality
  • Finalize DPA with OpenAI
  • Carry out a transfer impact assessment
  • Carry out DSFA if necessary
  • Implement technical and organizational measures
  • Informing users about data processing
