Save this as robots.txt in the root of your site. robots.txt is a request that reputable crawlers honour, not a lock. Crawler names and behaviour change, so check each provider's own documentation before relying on this.
Search is not training
Several providers run separate crawlers for search, for on-demand fetching and for training. You can treat them differently.
A request, not a lock
robots.txt asks crawlers to behave. Reputable ones do. It does not secure private content.
Check the sources
Crawler names and rules change. Confirm each provider's current documentation before you rely on a file.
