Does the free version train on your data?

No. The vendor states the free version does not use your data to train models. (source)

Home country is the headquarters of the company behind the tool. It is not a claim about where data is processed or stored: data residency depends on the plan you hold and must be confirmed with the vendor.

What to do about it

Requires a written policy before approval. Define what kind of data may be entered, verify whether training on your data can be disabled in the plan you hold, and record the tool in your AI inventory. Approving without a policy is the single most common source of audit findings.

Here is the distinction almost every company gets wrong in its first audit: almost no framework (NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, the EU AI Act) requires you to block AI tools; the exception is the EU AI Act's prohibited practices, such as inferring employees' emotions. What all of them require is that you know what is in use and have made a conscious, recorded decision about each item. A high-exposure tool approved under a written policy is compliance; a low-exposure tool in use with nobody aware of it is an audit finding.
