Data sent to the OpenAI API is not used to train or improve OpenAI models unless a customer explicitly opts in. The 30 day figure is the abuse monitoring log retention window. Zero data retention is available to eligible customers subject to prior approval by OpenAI. The Trust Portal lists SOC 2 Type 2 and FedRAMP 20x documentation but does not publish a FedRAMP impact level, and a Business Associate Addendum is available for eligible endpoints used with zero data retention or modified abuse monitoring.
