FarmGPU Inference API Data Retention Policy

Effective date: August 29, 2026 This policy defines how long each category of data associated with the FarmGPU Inference API is kept, and how it is deleted. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy. The governing principle: request content is never retained; operational metadata is retained only as long as it is useful for running a reliable service.

How deletion works

• Content is never written, so there is nothing to delete: prompts and completions exist only in volatile GPU and host memory and are gone when the request completes, the cache entry is evicted, or the process restarts.
• Telemetry stores (traces, logs, metrics) enforce the windows above through automatic time-based expiry — deletion does not depend on a manual process.
• Backups of telemetry are subject to the same maximum windows.

​

Zero Data Retention (ZDR) status

Our operating posture is zero retention of request content. However, we do not yet advertise a formal ZDR designation: we are completing an independent validation pass confirming that no diagnostic system (including request tracing) can capture content under any configuration. Until that validation is published, partners should treat this endpoint as “no content logging or training, short-lived operational telemetry” rather than certified ZDR.

​

Exceptions

Retention windows may be extended only when:

• Data is subject to a legal hold or valid legal process, or
• Metadata is needed for an active security or abuse investigation.

In both cases the extension applies only to the specific records involved, access is restricted to authorized personnel, and normal expiry resumes when the matter closes. These exceptions cannot create retention of prompt or completion content, because that content is never stored in the first place.
