You should never use an LLM/AI Chatbot with a third party service for anything that could be confidential, private in nature, or may have to do with your security.

All of the LLM/AI providers can read your contents. The only thing between them and your chats is "trust," and we've all had promises broken on us before.

Trust is not security.

Shameless plug: You can definitely use IPv6.rs and Cloud Seeder [1][2] to run Ollama and OpenWebUI on your own computer (confidentially) and access it via TLS remotely (via phone, etc.).

That advice is not limited to chatbots. You wouldn't believe how many times I've seen people paste sensitive data into online tools (formatting json, validating xml, etc) without giving any thought to what happens with that data. Or pasting error messages into Google, verbatim, including more sensitive data.
