Web- und App-Tipp: „Kleinanzeigen.de“: Wussten Sie, dass KI Ihre Chats liest?

KI liest die Kommunikation auf „Kleinanzeigen.de“ mit, um passende Antworten zu liefern. Eine Einwilligungsabfrage gab es dafür nicht. Wer die Funktion nicht möchte, kann sie aber ausschalten.

Web- und App-Tipp: „Kleinanzeigen.de“: Wussten Sie, dass KI Ihre Chats liest?

Kleinanzeigen.de, a German online marketplace for classified ads, allows both sellers and buyers to communicate through chat and negotiate deals. Recently, the platform has begun analyzing these chat messages using artificial intelligence (AI) to generate automatic response suggestions for sellers and improve their quality. This feature is activated by default for all users.

Users who wish to disable the feature, including the AI analysis, can do so within the app or on the website by navigating to "My settings," then "Settings/AI tools," and finally toggling the switch for "AI analysis of your messages."

For those who choose to use the AI suggestions, the company explains that their personal data is not used for training AI models and is processed solely in compliance with strict data privacy standards, such as data filtering. Further information on their AI usage and data privacy practices can be found in their legal notices on AI and the data protection declaration on Kleinanzeigen.de.
