Joint Press Release on Generative AI Poster

Generative AI and Privacy: the PIPC and the CNIL jointly produced a poster to raise awareness among AI users about data protection

Following their previous joint poster “Your Data, Your Rights” on ensuring children’s and adolescents’ right to self-determination, the PIPC and the CNIL have once again come together. This time they aim to promote the protection of users and teenagers’ personal data in the context of the use of generative AI services.

This joint poster “Generative AI and Privacy” is part of the ongoing cooperation between the two authorities under their Memorandum of Understanding signed in October 2022.

“Generative AI brings both new opportunities and challenges to adolescents around the world. I hope that the cooperation between the PIPC and the CNIL will continue to develop into a model case of policy cooperation in the fields of youth personal data protection and AI.” 

– Kyung Hee Song, Chairperson of the PIPC

“The rise of generative AI is opening up new possibilities for our digital activities while calling for greater vigilance regarding the use of personal data. The CNIL welcomes this renewed cooperation with the PIPC, which reflects our shared commitment to raising public awareness of responsible and privacy-respecting digital practices.” 

– Marie-Laure Denis, President of the CNIL

As the use of generative AI continues to expand across all age groups, this new poster provides an easy-to-understand guidance on how users can protect their personal data before, during, and after using generative AI services.

The poster is available in three languages: Korean, French, and English, and may be translated into other languages upon request from interested Data Protection Authorities, in accordance with the two authorities’ pre-determined copyright guidelines.

The PIPC and the CNIL will promote and use the poster through various initiatives, including online and offline distribution to middle and high schools, social networking service posts, and events.

The two authorities have agreed to continue to strengthen international cooperation and policy collaboration, especially to protect children’s and adolescents’ personal data in response to changes in the digital environment, including the rapid expansion of generative AI.
