HubSpot’s AI emphasizes privacy at the core, ensuring complete control over data while maintaining stringent security measures, according to HubSpot’s head of AI Nicholas Holland. |
Its AI includes Zero Data Retention to immediately delete sensitive business information by third-party AI providers after LLM processing, EU Regional Data Control to process region-specific data and allow all LLM-powered features to run within Europe without additional setup, and Data Masking to automatically detect and mask personal data before AI processing. |
Our view: HubSpot’s commitment to data privacy could set a trend for other companies looking to expand into AI but concerned over user sentiment and safety. |
