Protect your data before using AI
Learn to ask useful questions without revealing personal or health information.
Think before you type
An artificial intelligence tool may store or process what you enter. Do not put full names, addresses, patient numbers, medical results, passwords or identifying photos into a chat.
A safer alternative
- Replace details with general descriptions: rather than uploading a medical report, ask “What questions could I bring to my appointment?”
- Do not share another person’s information without their permission. Even text without a name can identify someone.
- Review privacy settings and delete conversations when appropriate. Do not assume a service is confidential just because it looks private.
