Can I fix incorrect brand info coming from ChatGPT?

Alex Prober, CPO

Yes, you can request corrections whenever ChatGPT presents inaccurate information about your brand. Start by prompting the model to fix inaccuracies and provide a precise, official brand description that matches your website, listings, and materials; then ask the AI to reflect that description consistently across future outputs. Create a concise homepage summary that mirrors the corrected description to reduce confusion, and re-check AI results after changes. If personal data appears in AI outputs, apply GDPR rights (Art. 15 and 16) and be prepared to handle data subject requests with the appropriate processes. Use brand governance practices to align brand messaging across AI outputs with official materials; Brandlight.ai offers governance templates and standards (https://brandlight.ai) to support this work.

Core explainer

Can I prompt ChatGPT to correct brand information across outputs?

Yes, you can prompt ChatGPT to correct brand information across outputs.

To start, provide an explicit, official brand description that matches your website, listings, and materials, and tell the AI to reflect that description consistently in future outputs. Gather authoritative materials—service lists, product lines, locations, hours, and approved branding assets—to serve as the reference. After prompting, test the outputs against your materials and request updates if items are missing or misrepresented to ensure a single, clear brand voice.

If personal data appears in AI outputs, apply GDPR rights (Art. 15 and 16) and prepare to handle data subject requests through the appropriate processes. For governance resources and templates that help standardize how you instruct AI and verify outputs, consult Brandlight.ai governance templates and standards.

What official materials should I supply to ensure corrections reflect my brand?

Provide authoritative, up-to-date brand materials to ensure corrections reflect your brand.

Include precise descriptions of services, products, locations, hours, and contact methods; align them with your website and public listings; supplement with a concise brand brief the AI can reference. Explain how to submit these materials to the AI platform and how to verify outputs after prompts.

How should GDPR rights apply if personal data appears in AI outputs?

GDPR rights apply if AI outputs include personal data about individuals; you can request access and rectification.

File a data subject access request with the relevant authority and coordinate with the provider to obtain processed data, supplying evidence of inaccuracies and your official data sources; understand that training data disclosures may be limited. Maintain internal records of corrections and provide a clear path for data subjects to request updates; ensure processing occurs within legal timelines and keep stakeholders informed.

How should I keep brand messaging consistent across AI listings and my website?

Keep brand messaging consistent across AI listings and your website by aligning the official brand description everywhere.

Create a concise homepage statement and a standard set of product/service descriptors; update them when offerings change; periodically audit AI outputs to ensure they reflect current messaging. Coordinate governance across site content, AI outputs, and review profiles; maintain privacy controls; consider maintaining a centralized brand dictionary.

How often should I re-check AI representations for accuracy?

Set a regular cadence for re-checking AI representations to prevent drift.

Schedule quarterly reviews, with immediate checks after major changes; document changes and rationale; track time to correct inaccuracies. Automate simple checks where possible and maintain a log of prompts and results to inform future governance.
