Grok
Vendor: grok-4.7, as of 29 September 2026
Grok is known mainly for topical questions through its link with X and is available in Germany with a low barrier to entry - which is why it turns up in professional life as shadow AI rather than as an examined tool. We list it so that the answer is findable: for professional secrets no viable route exists. Buying directly from the vendor lacks, on the public record, all four elements - data processing agreement, European processing, zero retention and the confidentiality agreement under section 203 of the German Criminal Code - and training on user input is the rule there, not the exception. Several European supervisory authorities have proceedings under way.
In the catalogue because you need to know this as well.
What it is good for
- Very low barrier to entry and topical information
- Present in daily use - which is why the question deserves an answer rather than silence
Where it stops
- No data processing agreement, no EU processing, no zero retention, no section 203 undertaking
- Training on user input is the rule - precisely the breaking point named by the German Federal Bar
- Ongoing proceedings by European supervisory authorities make the route uncertain looking forward as well
Status through us
The same model, procured differently, is a different legal position. The status above refers to procurement through us.
Which route carries it, with which instrument and under which condition, we set out in full to the firm before it commissions us - section 203(4) requires that the chain can be checked, not that it is published. The full matrix, with the sources behind every route, can be requested in the German catalogue after confirming your e-mail address, and we go through it in the conversation.
Is Grok the right fit?
We go through your tasks and the route that carries them - and say plainly where it does not.
