AI Data Usage FAQ

What data does Mito AI use?

Mito AI uses the instructions you provide (the prompt) and information about your dataframe and variables to generate code that works in the context of your analysis. Without this information, the AI generated code will require additional customization.

Private data that is contained in the dataframe name, column headers, or first five rows of data might be shared with Mito and OpenAI.

How is my data used?

The data collected by Mito AI is used to construct a prompt for OpenAI. Mito supplements the prompt you provide with additional information about your data to give OpenAI the best chance of generating helpful code.

The data collected is also used to improve Mito AI. Such uses include:

• Evaluating Mito AI to determine its effectiveness.

• Conducting research to improve Mito AI.

• Detecting potential abuse of Mito AI.

Read Mito and OpenAI’s privacy policy for more information.

How can I further protect my data?

Mito AI uses OpenAI to generate code by default. Doing so requires sending your information to OpenAI. To further protect your data, Mito Enterprise users can connect Mito AI to a self-hosted large language model. As a result, Mito would not need to collect or share any information about your data with OpenAI. Your data will never leave your system.

Can I use my own OpenAI API key?

If you want to route your completion through OpenAI servers directly, you can provide your own OpenAI API key.

Using Public OpenAI

If you want to use the public OpenAI API, you can set the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY to your OpenAI key. You can create an api key here and follow these instructions to set it as an environment variable.

Using Enterprise OpenAI

If you have an enterprise account with OpenAI and you would like to use it, please reach out to [email protected] who can explain how to set it up.
