Talkie offers moderate rights access (read, delete, correct, portability, opt-out) and security controls, but trains on user conversations without explicit opt-in, reserves perpetual sublicensable rights to user content, and lacks enforceable data minimization.

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

Chat data trains the model with no opt-out

The policy says the service will "allow your AI chatbot to learn from your interactions to improve your conversations". No opt-out is offered anywhere.

Broad content licence covering marketing

Posting content grants a "non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to use your User Content in connection with promotion, advertising, or marketing". The licence is not limited to running the service.

Access and deletion rights are spelled out

The policy names "Access to a copy of personal information; Deletion of personal information; Correction of inaccurate data" as available rights. Data is offered in a "portable, machine-readable format".

Named security controls

The policy states that "All transmitted data" is "encrypted" and that "Access" is "protected by firewalls, role-based access controls, and passwords". These are concrete controls rather than a generic assurance.

What the policy is silent or vague on

Not stated: keeping user inputs out of model training
Not stated: a way to opt out of training
Not stated: whether training use differs by plan
Not stated: your ownership of generated outputs
