It appears that the “Zero Data Retention” APIs they mention are something that customers need to request access to, and that it’s really quite hard to get this access. I’d be more impressed if any API user could use those APIs.

I believe Apple’s agreement includes this, at least when a user isn’t signed into an OpenAI account:

> OpenAI must process your request solely for the purpose of fulfilling it and not store your request or any responses it provides unless required under applicable laws. OpenAI also must not use your request to improve or train its models.

I wonder if we’ll end up seeing Apple dragged into this lawsuit. I’m sure after telling their users it’s private, they won’t be happy about everything getting logged, even if they do have that caveat in there about complying with laws.

The ZDR APIs are not and will not be logged. The linked page is clear about that.

If OpenAI cared about our privacy, ZDR would be a setting anyone could turn on.
