Does Ahrefs train on your data?

Does Ahrefs train on my data?

Two different things often get mixed up. Used to train models means your content helps build or improve the AI itself, so it can shape what the model produces later. Used to provide the feature means your content is processed to give you the answer, summary or suggestion you asked for, which any AI feature has to do. PolicyPeek's badge is about the first one only.

What Ahrefs's policy says (ahrefs.com):

we may use User Content, including any content you provide to us in connection with your use of AI Tools, to train our machine learning models

Is Ahrefs safe for UK GDPR?

PolicyPeek hasn't recorded whether Ahrefs's published policy mentions GDPR. PolicyPeek doesn't assess whether a tool meets GDPR; the badge only reports what the policy says about training.

In the UK: if personal data is involved, the UK GDPR applies to how it's used, including for AI. This page only reports what the vendor's published policy says about training — it is not a finding that Ahrefs meets UK GDPR, and it is not legal advice. The Information Commissioner's Office publishes guidance on AI and data protection.
