Hi, I know that as a business with Google workplace we can use Gemini website, and we can use Generative API without worrying about company data safety.
What about ‘prompts’ section in AI studio? Is data that I put there considered confidential and will not be used to train on it or accessed by Google?

I’m pretty sure the info submitted through Studio and any free part of the Developer API is subject to use by Google.

The exact same page says this:
“When a Service is being offered for a fee, it is considered to be a paid Service (the “Paid Services”). When you activate a Cloud Billing account, all use of Gemini API and Google AI Studio is a “Paid Service” with respect to how Google Uses Your Data, even when using Services that are offered free of charge, such as Google AI Studio and unpaid quota of Gemini API.”
" When you use Paid Services, including, for example, the paid quota of the Gemini API, Google doesn’t use your prompts (including associated system instructions, cached content, and files such as images, videos, or documents) or responses to improve our products, and will process your prompts and responses in accordance with the Data Processing Addendum for Products Where Google is a Data Processor. For Paid Services, Google logs prompts and responses for a limited period of time, solely for the purpose of detecting violations of the Prohibited Use Policy and any required legal or regulatory disclosures. This data may be stored transiently or cached in any country in which Google or its agents maintain facilities."

So, are the chat records of paid users on Google Cloud in Google AI Studio being used to train and improve the model? Is there a definitive answer to this now?

It appears to be yes and no. If you’re using the “free service” i.e., do not have cloud payment SET UP then yes, the information is used, otherwise no. I apologize for the oversight.
