Data Privacy

Category: Data

“DAY-tuh PRY-vuh-see”

Keeping personal or confidential information out of places it shouldn't go — including AI tools.

Lesson #5: Trust, Risk & Running AI Responsibly →
Think of it like…

A locked filing cabinet: not everything belongs on the open counter.

Everyday example

Not pasting your Social Security number into a chatbot.

Construction example

Stripping client addresses out of job notes before an AI summarizes them.

Business example

Using a business AI account so customer records aren't used to train outside models.

Why this matters

One careless paste can turn private data into a permanent leak you can't undo.

One-sentence summary

Data privacy is keeping sensitive info out of the wrong hands and tools.

Try it yourself
