Potentially affected fields included names, email addresses, approximate locations, browser details and user or organization identifiers.<\/p>\n<p>A December clarification added that some ChatGPT users who submitted help-center tickets or were logged into the API platform were also affected. OpenAI said chat content, API requests, passwords, API keys and payment details were not exposed.<\/p>\n<p>OpenAI removed Mixpanel and notified affected users. The practical concern is credible-looking phishing using exposed context.
