Security page: 'We don't train on your data' – models are said to be trained without using individual user data; prompts are said not to be shared with other customers and data not to be sold. Terms (2023-10-12) 7(b): users grant Copy.ai and licensors a broad licence to content for providing, operating, securing and improving the services; training is neither expressly mentioned nor excluded therein. The documentation does not differentiate by plan.

A Translate-specific statement on the use of entered texts for model training and an opt-out are not documented. The Google privacy policy (effective from 2026-10-16) states: 'We analyze usage of Google Translate to improve translation quality and increase the availability of Translate in more languages.' as well as the analysis of how often translations are marked as poor quality; publicly available information is used to train models for products such as Google Translate (q6).

Data usage FAQ (as of 2026-10-13): 'Google does not use any of your content for any purpose except to provide you with the Cloud Translation API service.' and 'Google does not use the content you send to train and improve our Google Translation features.' Content is not shared with third parties (q2).

Data usage FAQ (as of 2026-10-13): 'Google does not use any of your content for any purpose except to provide you with the Cloud Translation API service.' and 'Google does not use the content you send to train and improve our Google Translation features.' (q2). Custom models are trained with the customer's training data in the customer's project (pricing page: training billed by the hour, q1).

Privacy policy (as of 2023-11-27): Copy.ai uses cloud services for storage and processing in the USA and the European Union and may use further locations at its own discretion; Brazil, Costa Rica, the Philippines and Canada are additionally named as transfer destinations. Whether customers can choose the region: not publicly documented.

Google privacy policy: 'We maintain servers around the world and your information may be processed on servers located outside of the country where you live.' A Translate-specific location statement or region selection is not documented (q6).

Data usage FAQ: Cloud Translation – Basic has global endpoints (regional endpoints are documented only for Advanced, q3); 'the Services are global and data cannot be configured to remain in a specific region for processing' (q2). CDPA: subject to agreed location commitments, customer data may be processed in any country in which Google or its sub-processors maintain facilities (q4).

Documentation 'Global and multi-regional endpoints' (as of 2026-10-13): besides the global endpoint there are translate-eu.googleapis.com and translate-us.googleapis.com; with a multi-regional endpoint, data at rest and ML processing stay within the EU or the US respectively. The default is the global endpoint. Custom AutoML models and Preview features are not supported on the multi-regional endpoints (only the pre-trained NMT model). Organisation policy administrators can restrict the regions available for Advanced resources via a resource locations constraint (q3). The data usage FAQ refers to the 'AI/ML Data Location' section of the Service Specific Terms for regional endpoints (q2).
