How can I protect my data when using AI tools like ChatGPT?

Before sharing prompts with AI tools, check them for sensitive information like personal details, financial data, or proprietary information. Use Praivasi to detect and redact sensitive data. Also consider using a VPN for additional network privacy, and review the AI tool's privacy policy and data retention practices.

What is end-to-end encryption and why is it important?

End-to-end encryption (E2EE) means messages are encrypted on your device and can only be decrypted by the intended recipient. Even the service provider cannot read your messages. This is crucial for sensitive communications and is a key feature of secure messaging apps like Signal and ProtonMail.

Is it legal to use VPNs and privacy tools?

Yes, VPNs and privacy tools are legal in most countries. However, using them to engage in illegal activities is not protected. Always use privacy tools responsibly and in accordance with local laws. They should be used for legitimate privacy protection, not for facilitating illegal conduct.

How often should I change my passwords?

Change passwords immediately if a service reports a breach or you suspect compromise. For other accounts, change them every 3-6 months or when there's suspicion of unauthorized access. A password manager makes this easier and allows you to use unique, strong passwords for every account.

How do I know if my password has been compromised?

Use services like "Have I Been Pwned" (haveibeenpwned.com) or password managers that check for compromised credentials. Many password managers automatically monitor for breaches. If compromised, change your password immediately and enable two-factor authentication if available.

Do I need to use all these privacy tools?

Start with the essentials: a password manager, a VPN for public Wi-Fi, and encrypted messaging app. Add more tools based on your specific needs and threat model. Our knowledge section provides guidance on building a privacy toolkit suitable for your situation.

What is two-factor authentication (2FA) and why use it?

Two-factor authentication (2FA) requires two forms of verification to access an account: something you know (password) and something you have (phone, security key). It significantly reduces the risk of account compromise even if your password is stolen. Enable 2FA on all important accounts, especially email and banking.
