German Data Protection Authority Issues Guidance on LLM Training Data
The German Federal Data Protection Commissioner has issued formal guidance on the use of personal data for LLM training, establishing a framework that AI companies operating in Germany must follow. Key provisions include mandatory data processing impact assessments, right-to-erasure compliance for training data, and transparency requirements for model training datasets. The guidance is the most detailed regulatory position on LLM training data from any EU member state.
