AWS states that prompts customers enter into Amazon foundation models, and the outputs produced in response, are not used to train the underlying Amazon models unless a customer consents, and are not shared with any model provider. Amazon Bedrock's data retention is controlled by an account- or project-level mode rather than a fixed number of days: the "none" mode is zero data retention, "default" retains data only for abuse-detection purposes with no published day count, and "aws_review" (required only by specific non-Amazon models on Bedrock, not by Nova) retains data for up to 30 days for human review within the AWS boundary. Zero data retention for models that otherwise require retention is available on a per-account, per-model basis by contacting an AWS account manager. Amazon Bedrock is in scope for ISO, SOC, and CSA STAR Level 2, is HIPAA eligible, supports GDPR-compliant use, and is a FedRAMP High authorized service in the AWS GovCloud (US-West) Region specifically, not across all commercial regions.
