Quick Answer
Yes, ChatGPT saves conversations by default. You can disable history or delete past chats in settings.
Detailed Answer
ChatGPT saves all conversations to your account by default and may use them for model training. You can turn off chat history in settings, which prevents conversations from being used for training but still stores them for 30 days for abuse monitoring. You can also delete individual conversations or your entire history. For maximum privacy, use the API with data processing agreements or enable the business plan which does not train on your data.
