What Basis's privacy policy and terms of service say about your data

No training-data disclosure

Neither the privacy policy nor the terms say whether content submitted through the Services is used to train models, and no opt-out or opt-in mechanism is offered.

No retention period

Data is kept "for as long as needed to provide the Services" with no number of days, months, or years, and no deletion timeline after an account closes.

Clear no-sale commitment

The policy states plainly that Basis does not sell personal information, and it enumerates the categories of recipients it does share with, including hosting and infrastructure vendors.

Security described only in adjectives

Protection rests on "reasonable technical and organizational safeguards" with no encryption, access-control, certification, or breach-notification detail.

What the policy is silent or vague on

Not stated: keeping user inputs out of model training
