In this lesson
Where your data goes: privacy, terms, and what 'cloud' means
Classify which personal data an application or cloud service collects and whether that data is shared with third parties by reading its privacy policy[^2].
You'll be able to
- Classify which personal data an application or cloud service collects and whether that data is shared with third parties by reading its privacy policy[^2].
- Explain the legal obligations that govern the processing of your personal data (such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation) and identify when voice interactions or other inputs expose you to data protection, privacy, and security risks[^2].
- Evaluate a Terms of Service document to determine what actions you are permitted or prohibited from taking, and which vendor entities gain access to data you paste into a generative AI tool.
- Apply plain-language principles to interpret privacy notices and terms documents written for a specific audience, ensuring you can extract obligations and benefits relevant to your role as an AI practitioner[^1][^5].
- Create a data-flow map for a representative cloud-based AI workflow, labeling each point where personal data is collected, stored, or transferred to third parties, and citing the applicable privacy-policy clauses that govern each step[^2].
