When a platform offers you privacy, always ask "Privacy from whom?"
"Of course, while locking a chat can limit access, it doesn’t address concerns about how sensitive information is stored or handled...locking a chat doesn’t create end-to-end encryption or a separate encrypted vault, change how long it retains the chat, remove information that ChatGPT remembered before a chat was locked, or change the 'Improve the model for everyone' setting."
