Zero Data Retention

Route requests only to endpoints with strict no-retention guarantees

Zero Data Retention (ZDR) ensures prompt and completion data are not stored by the upstream endpoint. TheRouter.ai tracks policy metadata by endpoint and uses conservative defaults when retention status is unknown.

Per request

{
  "model": "openai/gpt-4.1",
  "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "Analyze this support log." }],
  "provider": {
    "zdr": true
  }
}

Account and request rules combine

Global privacy settings and per-request `provider.zdr` are combined with OR semantics. If either requires ZDR, routing is restricted to ZDR-compatible endpoints only.
