| Output and guide | Format |
| --- | --- |
| [Onboarding guide](https://nlmexporter.com/guides/export/reports-to-pdf) | .pdf |
| [Knowledge check](https://nlmexporter.com/guides/export/quiz-to-canvas-qti) | QTI / GIFT |

## Frequently asked questions

### Is company data safe in NotebookLM?

That is governed by your organisation's Google agreement and policies, not by the extension. The extension works through the Google account signed in to your browser and does not store its password.

### Can NotebookLM answers be trusted for this?

NotebookLM answers from the sources you give it and cites passages, which makes checking fast, but it can still misread a source. Open the cited passage for anything you will reuse, and keep the export as your record of what was checked.
