What happens to your prompts?

PrivateReviewed

Cerebras states inference inputs and outputs are not retained or used for content-based training or improvement.

Plan Scope
Cerebras Cloud inference, training, and chatbot services under its public terms and Cloud privacy policy.
Prompt Retention
Cerebras states it does not retain inputs and outputs associated with inference, training, or chatbot services.
Response Retention
Same non-retention statement as prompts.
Ordinary Logging
Service logs are retained only while necessary to provide the services; account and personal data follow purpose-based retention plus legal, dispute, and enforcement exceptions.
Model Training
No ordinary retained inputs or outputs are available for model training, and no inference-content training right is disclosed in the reviewed documents.
Product Improvement
Non-content service data and user feedback may support operations and improvement; the privacy policy does not authorize using inference payloads for improvement.
Human Or Operator Access
The non-retention policy limits stored access, but transient processing, security operations, and legal obligations remain; no separate zero-operator-access promise is published.
Subprocessors And Routing
Cerebras and its service providers process data under the privacy policy; public documentation does not describe inference as a gateway to changing external model providers.
Deletion Controls
Inference content is not retained. Other personal data can be subject to privacy-right requests and is deleted or aggregated when no longer necessary, subject to legal exceptions.
Caveat
The policy gives no precise maximum for service logs and does not call the design zero operator access. Non-retention of payloads is a first-party policy statement.
