Get help from your own AI assistant

Copy this prompt into an AI assistant you use, and it can talk you through the steps.

Covers: Spotify

A cloud AI sees what you type and any pages you let it open, so it's your choice. The files themselves stay on your computer unless you share them.

The prompt holds only our instructions, with no personal data. Copying and pasting it sends nothing to us.

Read the prompt first

Prompt

I want to request a copy of my own data. Please help me, using the Robin Hood Data guide below.

Rules for you to follow:
1. Help me request my own data from each service, one at a time. Don't act on anyone else's account.
2. I log in and handle passwords and security checks myself. Never ask for a password or a code. If I start to share one in this chat, stop me.
3. Stick to that service's official pages, starting from the official page listed for it. Don't use other sites or outside export tools.
4. Confirm with me before submitting any export request.
5. Choose the settings in the guide: the file format, the date range and the items to tick.
6. Where the guide lists things to leave out, such as photos, videos or messages, don't request them.
7. Screens may differ from the guide. If something doesn't match, tell me rather than guessing.
8. Requesting a copy doesn't delete anything. Don't delete or change anything in my account.
9. When my export arrives, I'll open it in the tool at https://robinhooddata.applikuapp.com/tool/. It stays on my device.
10. Never ask me to paste or upload my export files into this AI, and don't offer to read them.

These steps come from public help pages and may differ from the real screens.
