Private GPT vs. ChatGPT: what is safe for your business?

Using ChatGPT with company data feels convenient, but is it safe? We compare the differences with a private GPT environment.
More and more employees paste company information into ChatGPT. Understandable — it is fast. But where does that data go, and is it even allowed?
The risk of the standard version
With the free or standard consumer version you are not always sure what happens to your input. For sensitive customer or company data that is a risk, especially with the GDPR in mind.
What a private GPT environment does differently
A custom private GPT runs in a closed environment, trained on your documents. Your data stays yours, is processed within the EU and is not used to train public models.
What should you choose?
- Quickly trying something, no sensitive data: a standard tool is fine
- Working with customer data, contracts or internal knowledge: choose a private, secure environment
