What this means for you
  • Groq's terms explicitly protect your inputs from training use — the policy is affirmatively favorable on this point.
  • Your outputs and prompts are explicitly yours — Groq's terms include affirmatively protective IP language.
  • Data handling is conditional — 1 privacy or retention clause warrant review before using Groq at scale.

Latest stance: sale or sell on privacy data use

Under the laws in certain US states (e.g., California), you have the right to opt out of our processing or sharing of your information for online targeted advertising purposes. Note that certain state laws also allow you to opt out of the “ sale ” of your information to third parties in exchange for valuable consideration.

Latest stance: third party or vendor sharing on privacy data use

We (or third parties acting on our behalf) may receive or collect additional information about you from public databases, partners, social media platforms, conference hosts, event companies, and other third parties that supplement the information we collect directly or automatically as described above, for example partners and vendors that provide us with information about potential customers. We may use third-party identity verification services to verify your identity, secure our Services, and protect against fraud or abuse. When you engage in this process, you provide information, such as a photo ID or selfie, directly to that service. We receive confirmation of verification results but do not store your government identification documents or selfies ourselves. These services act as our processors and process your information in accordance with their own privacy notices.

Know where the missing document lives?

We haven't yet verified Groq's Privacy Policy. Point us at the official page and our pipeline will attempt to capture and read it in full. Submissions are candidates only — nothing is published until it passes the same verification gates as every other document on this site.

Every finding above is a verbatim quote from Groq's own published policy, captured to an immutable snapshot and read in full through a two-gate verification pipeline. Confidence labels and any analysis are AI-generated and informational only — not legal advice.
