Cohere Data Handling

Overview

Handle sensitive data when calling Cohere APIs. Cohere processes text server-side for Chat, Embed, Rerank, and Classify — any PII in your input reaches their servers. This skill covers pre-call redaction, post-call scrubbing, and compliance patterns.

Prerequisites

• Understanding of GDPR/CCPA requirements
• cohere-ai SDK installed
• Database for audit logging

Data Flow Awareness

Your App → [PII Redaction] → Cohere API → [Response Scrubbing] → Your App → User

Key point: Everything you send to cohere.chat(), cohere.embed(), etc.
is processed on Cohere's servers. Redact BEFORE the API call.
