Training Use
Ideogram may use information including user content to train the models that power the services. Standard/public usage appears to include training use. API users have stronger protections: Ideogram explicitly agrees NOT to use API user inputs or outputs to train its AI model (except content flagged for policy violations). Free/standard users have less protection. No clear universal opt-out mechanism found for web app users.
5
/10
Data Retention
No explicit short retention period or zero-data-retention policy found. Private generations available to paid subscribers. Account deletion rights exist. Specific post-deletion retention timelines not clearly published. Standard operational data retention assumed. Private generation feature suggests some commitment to data isolation.
