OpenAI API Platform
OpenAI says data sent to the API is not used to train or improve OpenAI models unless the organisation explicitly opts in to share data.
API inputs and outputs are excluded from model training by default. Eligible organisations can separately opt in to share data for improvement.
No opt-out is required for the stated baseline. Confirm the organisation and project are not opted into data sharing, and review Zero Data Retention or Modified Abuse Monitoring eligibility if needed.
OpenAI says business and API content remains owned by the customer and is handled under its business privacy commitments, separate from consumer ChatGPT treatment.
By default, abuse-monitoring logs can retain customer content for up to 30 days. Application state, stored completions, files, vector stores, and other stateful endpoints can retain data longer until deleted or configured otherwise.
Abuse monitoring and safety review can involve review of logged content; eligible customers may apply for modified monitoring or zero-retention controls.
