How does this provider treat the data you send it? Advisory statements about documented practices — not legal advice.
| Trains on customer API data by default | No source — Inference Terms and Conditions §3(c): the license to User Content is scoped to 'provide the Services and comply with applicable law', and §3(d) excludes User Content from data usable to 'improve our existing and develop new products and services' — no training right is taken (retrieved 2026-10-10) |
|---|---|
| Retention (API inputs/outputs) | Inputs and outputs are not retained: 'We do not retain inputs and outputs associated with our training, inference and chatbot Services' (Privacy Policy §6). Logs are deleted 'when they are no longer necessary to provide services to you' — no bounded day-count window is documented for logs, and no explicit abuse-monitoring retention exception is published. Zero retention is the default, not an opt-in. source — Privacy Policy (effective 2024-08-27) §6: 'We do not retain inputs and outputs associated with our training, inference and chatbot Services. We delete logs… when they are no longer necessary to provide services to you' (retrieved 2026-10-10) |
| Subprocessor list | https://trust.cerebras.ai/?itemUid=e3fae2ca-94a9-416b-b577-5c90e382df57 — DPA (Rev. June 2025) Annex I: 'List of subprocessors shall be provided in the following webpage on the Cerebras Trust Center', with update notifications via the Trust Center (retrieved 2026-10-10) |
| Enterprise tier | Enterprise agreements add the contractual DPA (processor-role commitments, 72-hour breach notice, audit rights, SCCs) without changing the privacy posture — the no-retention/no-training commitments already apply to all API users. Individual/self-serve users rely on the Terms plus Privacy Policy alone (Terms preamble); Order Forms take precedence over the base Terms (§10(f)). source — DPA (Rev. June 2025) §3.2.2: Cerebras 'will not: (i) Sell or Share Customer Personal Data; (ii) retain, use, disclose, or otherwise Process such Customer Personal Data for any purpose other than as necessary to provide Services' (retrieved 2026-10-10) |
