With so many new AI tools and features, it’s understandable if you have some questions about your privacy in Gmail. Here’s what you should know about using Gemini in Gmail:
- Google does not train its foundational AI models, including Gemini, on your personal emails. Any access you grant Gemini in Gmail is for isolated tasks — like summarizing a lengthy email — and that’s it. What’s in your inbox stays private, even if you use Gemini to help you.
- Gemini in Gmail does not retain your data. We engineered it to work securely inside your inbox so that it only processes what you ask for, then leaves your inbox. Gemini only processes your information to complete your specific request, and doesn’t hold onto that data afterward.
Bottom line: Your inbox is your business. Learn more about how Gemini and Gmail work together from Gmail’s VP of product, Blake Barnes.
