Assessment
All plans: low
Reasoning: An academic search assistant: inputs are research questions, not documents, and the vendor excludes them from LLM training. US-only servers make every query a transfer, but the content of a literature search is rarely personal or confidential.
Flags: GDPR Chapter V (US servers) · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
