Data Privacy
Perplexity AI
MED⚠ CAUTIONHIGH
Standard plan: personal, non-commercial use only. Enterprise terms at perplexity.ai/hub/legal/enterprise-terms-of-service. Email/calendar integration data explicitly excluded from AI model training.
“We retain your information for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. When determining the length of time to retain your information, we consider various criteria, including whether we need the information to continue to provide you…”
No fixed retention schedules are provided; retention is effectively open-ended tied to broad business purposes.

“In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.”
Once data is anonymised, the platform claims the right to use it forever without informing the user. Users have no practical recourse once anonymisation has occurred.
