FAQs

Privacy questions.

Short answers before you change settings, upload files, connect apps, generate images, or publish work.

Q.01
What is the first Gemini privacy setting to check?
Review Gemini app activity, connected extensions, Workspace permissions, and account history.
Q.02
Why does activity history matter?
It can influence future experience and may store prompts or interactions you assumed were temporary.
Q.03
Should work and personal accounts mix?
No. Keep them separate so Drive, Gmail, and app context do not cross the wrong boundary.
Q.04
When should I disconnect extensions?
When a project ends, a permission feels too broad, or you are working with sensitive material.
