What the evaluation found
JetBrains AI
Strongest category: Privacy
JetBrains AI provides users with strong control over their intellectual property through a "default-off" policy, meaning code is never used for AI training unless a user explicitly opts in. The company is transparent about its data practices, proactively notifying users of policy changes and providing clear data deletion workflows. This user-centric approach is reinforced by strong European privacy standards and independent security certifications.

Strongest category: Privacy
Lovable AI provides strong, user-friendly privacy policies, giving customers clear ownership of their data and an explicit option to prevent it from being used for model training. The company also offers important legal protections, such as assuming liability for copyright claims on its generated code and providing specific compliance features for European privacy laws like GDPR. However, these positive policies are not consistently supported by public evidence, as the company lacks independent audits to verify its data handling practices and does not provide clear details on its data deletion or anonymization procedures.
