Last reviewed: 21 July 2026
Does Midjourney train on what you type?
Yes, by default.
Can you turn Midjourney's training off?
Use Stealth Mode if your plan supports it, avoid uploading private faces/documents/reference images, and use Midjourney privacy/data-deletion requests for account data. There is no general training opt-out for content you submit to the service.
Is what you put into Midjourney private?
Midjourney collects account data, prompts, uploaded reference images, generated outputs, usage data, and Discord/site data. Generations are public by default in community surfaces unless you use Stealth Mode on an eligible plan; prompts/uploads/outputs may be used to operate, improve, and train the service.
So, is Midjourney safe to use?
Mostly, with care. We currently rate Midjourney "Use With Caution" (privacy risk: Medium). Worth reading the points above before you share anything personal.
Kevin's take
“Everything you generate is public unless you pay for stealth mode. That is worth knowing before you type your business idea into the prompt box.”

Knowing what’s safe is half of it.
The other half is knowing what to do with these tools. We teach that part — tutorials, prompts, plain English, no judgment. For less than a cup of coffee a month.
