To be fair to Dropbox that page also states:
> "Your files within Dropbox are sent to a third-party AI only when you chose to interact with AI powered features. For example, when you ask a question about a file. "
> "If you or your team is participating in the Dropbox AI alpha, the Third-party AI toggle in your account settings is turned On by default. Only the content relevant to an explicit request or command is sent to our third-party AI partners to generate an answer, summary, or transcript."
Basically, its saying "if you use AI tools, we'll send your data to a 3p, but if you don't, we're not".
The issue really is if they turned on a feature in the future "ask a question about this document" and you didn't know it meant that the document was sent over to OpenAI.

Only the content relevant to an explicit request or command is sent to our third-party AI partners to generate an answer, summary, or transcript." It turns itself back on??? So, what's the point of the toggle then?
