When you submit an assignment or participate in an AI interview using Claire, you are sharing your original work and personal data. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously. This guide explains exactly what happens to your data and how it is protected.

​
Your data is never used to train AI models

The most important thing you need to know is that your submissions and interview transcripts are never used to train AI models like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, or Google’s Gemini. When Claire uses these language models to assist your instructor in grading, your data is sent securely via enterprise APIs. These enterprise agreements strictly prohibit the AI providers from using your data to improve or train their models. Your intellectual property remains yours.

​
Who has access to your data?

Your data is kept strictly confidential. The only people who can view your submissions, interview transcripts, and grading feedback are:
  1. You: Through your student portal.
  2. Your instructor and authorized teaching assistants: To review, grade, and provide feedback on your work.
  3. Claire system administrators: Only when required for technical support or security monitoring, and under strict confidentiality agreements.
No other students in your course can see your work or your grades unless your instructor has set up a specific peer-review activity.
Claire Labs complies with major educational privacy laws and regulations, including FERPA (in the United States) and the GDPR (in the European Union).

​
Data retention

Claire retains your data only for as long as it is necessary for your course and as dictated by your institution’s data retention policies. Typically, your data remains accessible throughout the duration of the semester and for a standard archiving period afterward, allowing you to review past feedback. If your institution requests data deletion at the end of an academic year, all your associated submissions and feedback will be permanently removed from our active servers.

​
Security measures

We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access:
  • Encryption in transit: All data sent between your browser and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS.
  • Encryption at rest: Your submissions and feedback are stored in encrypted databases.
  • Access controls: Strict authentication procedures ensure that only authorized users (you and your instructors) can access specific course data.
If you have specific questions about privacy or wish to exercise your data rights, please contact your institution’s IT or privacy office, or reach out to us directly at privacy@clairelabs.ai.
