Quick Questions on Security and Privacy

Hello Everyone!

I’ve made several custom GPTs over my time, and I have been frustrated that OpenAI didn’t follow through on their promises about the GPT store. I’ve wanted to make some GPTs that could be monetized, but most other tools were such a pain to deal with that I just elected to wait until something like Pickaxe got developed.

If I set up a Pickaxe Studio and use my own API created from private GPTs, what level of privacy and confidentiality of information submitted would the user be able to retain? Does it all just get transmitted to OpenAI to be used to train their knowledge base? I typically have that setting turned off on my account, but all I know on the custom GPT side is that OpenAI says they won’t use that data for training.

I deal with the public sector so don’t want to make any tools that may deal with confidentiality or trade secret data, and run the risk they end up in the OpenAI borg hivemind.

If you’re building tools on Pickaxe and using an OpenAI model, your information is passed to OpenAI but not stored or used to train their models. It is subject to their 30-day deletion guarantee for API usage. Same goes with documents.
