- Zero Retention Available
- Yes
- Retention Default
- Zero data retention + zero operator access by default — inputs/outputs not stored; model providers cannot access traffic.
- Retention Exceptions
- Certain third-party models require abuse-detection retention up to 30 days (e.g. some Anthropic/OpenAI-on-Bedrock traffic); provider data-sharing is opt-in. CSAM hash-matching applies to all.
- Subprocessors
- Amazon-owned datacentres, third-party model providers (isolated deployment accounts)
- Transfer Mechanism
- sccs+dpf
- Eu Procurement Ready
- conditional
- Eu Procurement Reason
- Best default retention posture (ZDR + zero operator access) + ISO 42001; US CLOUD Act jurisdiction remains unless AWS European Sovereign Cloud is used (EU-incorporated, EU-resident operators).
