Introducing AI Privacy, a new way to help protect sensitive information when using AI chats. AI Privacy checks your prompts for personal and sensitive details before they’re submitted, helping prevent information from being shared accidentally.

Note: AI Privacy is available with System Mechanic Ultimate Defense.

New in 27: AI Privacy Checks prompts before they're sent

Keep sensitive information out of AI chats

Everyday prompts can contain information you may not mean to share. AI Privacy checks what you type into supported AI chats for sensitive details and can block or mask them before they’re sent.

  • Personal information

    Detects details such as names, email addresses, home addresses, and dates of birth.

  • Passwords and API keys

    Helps catch login credentials and developer keys before they're submitted in an AI prompt.

  • Financial information

    Identifies sensitive financial details, including bank account numbers.

Protection before you press send

AI Privacy works in the background while you use supported AI platforms. When sensitive information is detected, it can stop that information from being submitted based on your settings.

  1. Step 1

    Checks prompts as you type

    Enable protection to look for sensitive personal information before it leaves your device.
