Sharing & Disclosure · Company practice
Using AIs instructs Meta to share information with search partners; Private Processing queries are unlinked
Meta may share certain information with select partners, such as search engines, to give you the most relevant information in connection with AIs, and the terms treat your use of AIs as an instruction to Meta to share information for that purpose. For AIs used in Private Processing, search terms based on your chat may be sent to these search partners to produce a response; the terms state those queries are not connected to your account. A linked page describes the partner sharing in more detail.

By using AIs, you instruct us to share information for this purpose. To provide you with the most relevant information when using AIs in Private Processing, search terms based on your chat may be sent to these search partners to provide a response. These queries are not connected to your account.
Qualifications & exceptions
- Sharing is "may", for the stated purpose of providing the most relevant information.

Not stated here
- Which partners receive information, and what "certain information" includes, is on a linked page that is not supplied here.
Cross-references
- contrast (model-proposed): Meta may review your AI conversations, automated or by humans, except chats using Private Processing — contrast: Reviewed tension: Meta says it cannot read or access Private Processing messages, yet search terms based on a Private Processing chat may be sent to search partners (stated as not connected to your account). Both are stated; the terms do not explain how the search terms are derived without access.
