Artificial intelligence is advancing by leaps and bounds, but with it, risks to your privacy and digital security are also increasing.

Google Gemini is a powerful tool, but it's not designed to handle certain types of sensitive data. Avoid sharing them is key to your protection.

What is Gemini and why should you be careful?

Gemini is Google's multimodal AI, capable of processing text, images, audio, and more. It assists with tasks such as drafting texts, analyzing data, or generating content.

However, it's not a secure environment for all kinds of information. When interacting with these tools, there's a risk of accidental exposure or misuse of data.

1. Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

Don't share your ID, CUIL, passport, or driver's licenses. These are data that can be used to impersonate you.

Identity theft is one of the most common and serious threats. Even if Gemini says it doesn't store data, the risk exists.

Common risks

  • Impersonation at banks, ANSES, or AFIP
  • Fraud in procedures or services
  • Access to official accounts or benefits

How to protect yourself

  • Don't enter real data in any query
  • Use fake or generic examples
  • Request deletion if you shared something by mistake
  • Monitor your accounts for unusual activity

2. Passwords and access credentials

Never share your passwords with an AI, not even to ask it to remember them. Gemini is not a secure password manager.

A leaked credential can mean total control of your accounts by a third party.

Essential protection

  • Use encrypted password managers
  • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA)
  • Change your password if it was leaked by mistake
  • Set up login alerts

3. Complete financial data

Avoid sharing card numbers, CVV, CBU, or bank balances. There's no specific encryption in Gemini for this type of data.

A leak can result in fraud, theft, and serious financial losses.

Key tips

  • Consult financial matters in official apps
  • Don't use AI to review your online banking
  • Block cards if you have any doubts
  • Review your statements monthly

4. Private medical information

Don't enter diagnoses, treatments, or test results. Although Gemini can help you with health questions, it doesn't replace your doctor.

The exposure of medical data can result in discrimination, blackmail, or commercial use of your health.

Protective measures

  • Ask questions without personal data
  • Use secure medical platforms
  • Request deletion of information if you made a mistake

5. Biometric data

Fingerprint, face, or iris should not be shared with Gemini. If these data are stolen, they can't be changed like a password.

Once compromised, the risk of impersonation is permanent.

How to protect yourself

  • Use these data only in certified apps
  • Implement multifactor authentication
  • If leaked, notify your technology provider

6. Confidential information or trade secrets

Don't upload business ideas, strategies, source code, or private formulas to Gemini. General-purpose AIs don't guarantee legal confidentiality.

A careless mistake can destroy years of work and investment.

Good business practices

  • Train your team in cybersecurity
  • Use platforms with enterprise encryption
  • If there's a leak, act quickly with your legal team
