Surfshark’s study reveals the most popular chatbots collect user data, putting users’ privacy at risk. Google’s Gemini tops the list with 22 types of data collected across 10 categories. This includes diagnostic information and access to contacts, exclusive to Gemini.
The ranking shows:
* Gemini (22 unique data types)
* Claude (13)
* Copilot (12)
* DeepSeek (11)
* ChatGPT (10)
* Perplexity (10)
* Grok (7)
DeepSeek from China ranks middle with 11 points. The study highlights the importance of checking a chatbot’s privacy policy before use, as user data can be vulnerable to hacking and sold to advertisers.
Note: Gemini is set to become available on Telegram, while Google continues to develop its AI with Gemini 2.5, outperforming competitors in benchmarks.
