- Retention Default
- Chats are stored and user-controlled: "By default, user prompts and outputs are not used for training or shared. Delete or export your chats at any time." No fixed deletion window is published.
- Retention Exceptions
- Public AI states that opportunities to contribute data to AI may exist later, "but only if and when you want to" — an opt-in framing rather than a default.

- Eu Procurement Reason
- The most unusual row in the registry: a nonprofit inference utility serving fully open public models — Apertus from EPFL/ETH Zurich/CSCS, SEA-LION from Singapore, EuroLLM, ALIA — with open-source frontend and application, published funding and governance, and no commercial incentive to retain anything. The catch is the substrate: it runs on AWS in Zurich, so a project built as an answer to hyperscaler dependence sits on a US hyperscaler and inherits CLOUD Act exposure. No certifications and no DPA, which is normal for a nonprofit and still counts against it here.
