ChatGPT doesn't retain information between conversations—each session starts fresh. However, OpenAI collects data during interactions for service improvement and safety purposes. To audit what's stored, access your OpenAI account settings and request your data export through privacy options. Review conversation history within the app to see what you've discussed. For comprehensive transparency, submit a formal data access request under privacy regulations like GDPR or CCPA if applicable. Check your account for linked email addresses and connected applications. Regularly delete sensitive conversations and adjust privacy settings. Understanding OpenAI's data practices helps you manage your digital footprint responsibly and maintain control over personal information shared during sessions.
