TeamViewer AI security, privacy, and customer control

TeamViewer AI helps support teams work smarter by automating documentation, guiding troubleshooting, and accelerating scripting, all while maintaining built-in security and privacy.

Analyse data with Tia

Security and data-handling at a glance

  • Tia is strictly read-only: it cannot take actions on devices; it only retrieves defined, clearly constrained data points and user-triggered screenshots.
  • TeamViewer protects data with client-side encryption and HSM-protected key handling with audited operations.
  • Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest (AES-256).
  • Admins control rollout and access via settings, permissions, and policies.
  • EU-27 data storage on Microsoft Azure.

Built for enterprise environments

TeamViewer AI follows clear principles designed for security, governance, and practical adoption.

  • Data privacy

    We minimize data processed per workflow and anonymize where applicable. Data handling is designed to support privacy requirements in enterprise environments.

  • Customer control

    Admins manage rollout and access via settings, permissions, and policies. Tia is strictly read-only and cannot apply changes on devices.

  • Secure by design

    Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest (AES-256). Any data from TeamViewer client comes with client-side encryption (CSE) with HSM-protected key handling.

  • Transparency and auditability

    Clear boundaries on what AI can access and produce. Outputs and logs support oversight, reviews, and compliance processes.

Session Insights

Session documentation

Session documentation protected with client-side encryption
 
  • Session data is anonymized on the client before leaving the endpoint (rule-based masking).
  • Session data is protected using client-side encryption (CSE).
  • The public key is obtained over HTTPS, and the private key is protected and unwrapped in a certified HSM with audited operations.
  • Additional anonymization is applied through cloud-based services (non-public details available under NDA).
  • Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest (AES-256).

Policy-controlled session summaries, protected end to end with anonymization and encryption.

Tia

In-session troubleshooting

Tia is strictly read-only by design
 

  • Tia is strictly read-only. It cannot execute code, install software, or modify systems.
  • At the start of the session, Tia receives a limited technical device data snapshot to support troubleshooting.
  • Screenshots are only retrieved when explicitly triggered by the user.
  • Tia can also use in-session conversation context and permission-based Session Insights visibility.
  • Tia does not collect user content, personal documents, communication data, keystrokes, or activity data.

Tia's approach to troubleshooting is focused on the technical system data, not on user content or personal activity.

Session Insights and Tia

AI-assisted scripting

Scripts are drafted faster, execution stays permission-controlled
 

  • AI helps generate script drafts from prompts and optionally from prior Session Insights.
  • Scripts are stored in the tenant cloud Script Database for review and reuse.
  • Execution is not performed by Tia—scripts are run by authorized users through Remote Scripting.
  • Access is governed by Remote Scripting and Session Insights permissions.

Script drafts are generated, stored, and executed through permission-controlled workflows.

Frequently asked questions

Administrators control AI rollout and access through settings, permissions, and policies. Data collected and processed depends on the AI workflow:

  • Session Insights (documentation): Captures session interactions needed to generate summaries and action steps, with anonymization applied before broader processing.
  • Tia (troubleshooting): Uses a limited technical device data snapshot taken at session start, screenshots taken only when explicitly triggered by the user, Tia conversation history, and permission-based Session Insights. It does not collect user content, personal documents, communication data, keystrokes, or activity data.
  • AI-assisted scripting: Uses user prompts and optional context from prior Session Insights to generate script drafts.

Session data is first captured and anonymized on the TeamViewer client using a rule‑based anonymization layer. Sensitive elements (including emails, URLs, passwords, credit card numbers, and IPs) are removed before leaving the endpoint. Additional anonymization occurs in cloud‑based services.

Yes. TeamViewer uses third-party LLM services (Azure OpenAI and Google Gemini) under defined conditions to deliver AI outputs. For Session Insights, data is anonymized before broader processing, and the workflow uses encrypted transport (HTTPS/TLS).

TeamViewer third-party sub-processor details and terms are available here: 
https://media.teamviewer.com/is/content/teamviewergmbh/teamviewer/central-image-hub/pdf/en/teamviewer-third-party-terms-en.pdf

Yes.

  • In transit: Data is encrypted using HTTPS (TLS) between TeamViewer clients, TeamViewer cloud services, cloud storage, and AI services (as shown in the Session Insights architecture).
  • At rest: Cloud storage uses industry-standard AES-256 encryption (as stated).
  • Additional protection: Session Insights and Tia data is protected by client-side encryption (CSE).  

Session Insights and Tia use a public key obtained by the client over HTTPS. The corresponding private key is stored in encrypted form and additionally safeguarded by a key held in a certified Hardware Security Module (HSM). Before use, the private key is securely unwrapped within the HSM, and all HSM operations are fully audited.

  • Session Insights: Outputs (summaries/action steps) are stored in the tenant cloud and access is governed by user permissions via Admin Settings.
  • AI-assisted scripting: Generated scripts are stored in the tenant cloud Script Database for review, reuse, and controlled execution.  

We store tenant data for the duration of your contract, unless you choose to delete it beforehand. Customers can delete stored AI-related artifacts, such as Session Insights and scripts, in bulk at any time via administrative controls.

Upon termination of the contract, customers can export or extract their data in accordance with applicable requirements, including the EU Data Act where relevant. After termination, TeamViewer will handle remaining data according to the agreed retention and deletion process, subject to applicable legal and contractual retention requirements.

Data is anonymized on-device before broader processing and undergoes additional anonymization in cloud-based systems. Before and after cloud-based processing services are used, data remains handled in encrypted form. Any decrypted processing is limited to what is technically necessary to generate the requested output, and data is not retained in decrypted form beyond service delivery.

No. TeamViewer does not use customer data to train AI models. If we ever consider using fully anonymized data to train our AI models, this would only be done with strict safeguards, clear transparency, and updates to our documentation and applicable terms before any change takes effect.

Any such change would be reflected in our documentation and applicable terms.
