Lumen Trust Notes

Google Gemini

Gemini runs fully in Google's cloud with no local or self-hosted option for the consumer and Workspace products, so data sovereignty is Low. Google offers a genuinely usable free tier and broad accessibility, supporting High parity, while the product's clear productivity mission inside Workspace earns High purpose. Closed models and limited training-data transparency keep Provenance Low. Strong for Google-centric workflows; treat sensitive data under your organisation's Google Workspace and AI data-processing settings.

Lection

The Lection service presents significant technical sovereignty concerns due to its reliance on cloud processing without explicitly stating local-only options or end-to-end encryption for user-scraped data. Transparency is critically lacking regarding the provenance of its AI models, user data handling ethics, and any commitments to bias mitigation or accessibility standards.
