That's typical of the free options on OpenRouter, if you don't want your inputs used for training you use the paid one: https://openrouter.ai/deepseek/deepseek-chat-v3-0324
Is OpenRouter planning on distilling models off the prompts and responses from frontier models? That's smart - a little gross - but smart.
COO of OpenRouter here. We are simply stating the WE can’t vouch for the behavior of the upstream provider’s retention and training policy. We don’t save your prompt data, regardless of the model you use, unless you explicitly opt-in to logging (in exchange for a 1% inference discount).
That 1% discount feels a bit cheap to me - if it was a 25% or 50% discount I would be much more likely to sign up for it.
We don’t particularly want our customers’ data :)
Yeah, but Openrouter has a 5% surcharge anyway.
