Privacy Modes: TEE & E2EE on Venice

Every model on Venice now displays a privacy mode, giving users full visibility into how their data is handled. Models running inside Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) ensure isolated processing, and end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) models go further — not even Venice can see your prompts or responses. Click any privacy badge to see exactly what each mode means.
