# Data Security ## OpenAI API Usage One of the key advantages of using your OpenAI api key in **SkyDeck AI** is that it **enables private access to OpenAI systems**. If one uses free or paid ChatGPT services OpenAI makes no promises about data security. But if one uses an OpenAI API key in Control Center then all of the chat interaction by your users in GenStudio remains private.\ \ This is what [OpenAI writes](https://openai.com/security) on the subject:\ \ "Data submitted through the OpenAI API is not used to train OpenAI models or improve OpenAI’s service offering. Data submitted through non-API consumer services ChatGPT or DALL·E may be used to improve our models." --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
