Image Privacy and Deletion

Hi,
When I’m on a Premium Trial or Basic plan with Roboflow, does Roboflow use, train on, or otherwise utilize the images I upload in my private project for anything outside of my own account or projects? Specifically:

  1. Are my images ever used to train public models or improve Roboflow’s services?
  2. What happens when I delete images from my account? Are they fully removed from Roboflow’s servers, or retained in any form (e.g., backups or logs)?

I’m asking to better understand the privacy and data handling policies for Premium Trial or Basic users. Any official clarification or user experiences would be helpful!

Hi,

Thank you for the response, but it doesn’t directly answer my questions. I’d like to clarify again:

  1. When I’m on a Premium Trial or Basic plan, does Roboflow ever use the images I upload in private projects to train public models or otherwise improve Roboflow’s services in any way?
  2. When I delete images from my account, are they fully removed from Roboflow’s servers, including backups or logs, or are they retained in any form?

These are important questions for understanding how my data is handled. I’d appreciate a direct response to each point.

Thanks again!

Hi @Marc!

  1. No, we do not use your private data.
  2. When you delete images, they are removed and not retained in any form.

Please let me know if you need any further clarification. Thank you!!
