A plain-language look at what AI companies actually do with your data, and the privacy settings worth checking.
AI tools increasingly ask for access to more than a simple conversation — financial accounts, documents, personal history — and most people click "allow" without knowing what that access actually means. This guide breaks down what's actually happening in plain language.
Inside: what AI companies typically do and don't do with your data, red flags worth paying attention to before granting an integration or permission, checking and adjusting privacy settings on the AI tools you already use, and a realistic framework for deciding what's worth the convenience trade-off. Not legal advice — a practical starting point for informed decisions.
Includes quick-reference cheat sheets and tool/template checklists (print version), AI-powered prompts at the end of every chapter, and clickable links to Claude and ChatGPT in the digital version. Available in print (8.5×11, binder-ready) and digital (6×9, phone-optimized) formats. Instant download after purchase.
