- a Production / compliant tier, where Zero Data Retention (ZDR) is contractual or default;
- an Evaluation tier, reserved for testing the latest models, where no real data is allowed.
We deliberately display “Contact us” where a route requires a request or approval, instead of advertising blanket ZDR. We present ZDR only where it is contractual or default, and we scope evaluation routes explicitly. This is intentionally less “marketing” — and more defensible.
Deployment & data residency
Prisme.ai SaaS is deployed as multi-tenant instances, one per cloud provider:- OVHcloud (France), and
- AWS (Europe).
Customer-governed model selection
Prisme.ai provides the LLM Gateway and a catalogue of model routes. Each customer whitelists, in their own organization, which models are allowed (managed through Model Governance). So the effective set of LLM subprocessors is chosen and controlled by the customer, not imposed by the platform. The compliant-tier routes below (OVHcloud, AWS Bedrock) are what Prisme.ai recommends and certifies; what actually applies to a given organization is its own whitelist.Supported routes & retention posture
| Route | Retention posture | To enable | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| OVHcloud AI Endpoints | ZDR — contractual by default (Special Conditions, Annex 10: no backup or storage, even ephemeral; OVHcloud does not store or reuse inputs/outputs). EU / sovereign, open-weight models | Accept the Special Conditions — nothing to negotiate | ✅ Available |
| AWS Bedrock | ZDR by default (AWS-sold models) + zero operator access. data_retention_mode = none enforced. Excludes provider_data_share models (Claude Fable 5 / Mythos 5 → 30-day retention) | AWS DPA applies via Service Terms + none mode (SCP-locked) | ✅ Available |
| Google Vertex AI | ZDR achievable by configuration (in-memory cache 24h, per-project residency) | On request — disable cache + opt out of abuse logging | 🟡 Contact us |
| Microsoft Azure (OpenAI / Foundry) | ZDR achievable via the Modified Abuse Monitoring program | On request / approval — Limited Access (managed customer, EA / MCA) | 🟡 Contact us |
| Public APIs — OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Gemini Developer API | Outside the default ZDR scope | Technology watch & POC only — synthetic data, never customer / personal / production data | ⚪ Contact us for production |
Production / compliant tier
OVHcloud AI Endpoints — Zero Data Retention is a contractual commitment (OVHcloud Public Cloud Special Conditions, Annex 10 — AI Endpoints): the service includes “ni sauvegarde ni stockage, même éphémère” and “OVHcloud n’effectue aucune sauvegarde des Inputs ou des Outputs”. Hosting is European / sovereign. Catalogue is open-weight models only. AWS Bedrock — Bedrock applies a Zero Data Retention model by default for AWS-sold models, with zero operator access. Prisme.ai setsdata_retention_mode = none and locks it organization-wide via an SCP (condition key bedrock-mantle:DataRetentionMode). The AWS GDPR DPA is incorporated into the AWS Service Terms by default.
Evaluation tier (latest models)
The direct public APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Gemini Developer API) are kept available so teams can evaluate the newest models (technology watch, demos, proofs of concept).Cross-cutting
ZDR = stateless inference
Provider-side ZDR covers stateless inference. The platform still stores conversations, with configurable retention — that is a separate control.
Two layers of residency
Platform data stays in the cloud instance you chose (OVHcloud France or AWS Europe), with logical tenant isolation. LLM processing then depends on the route your organization whitelists — fixed explicitly per route.
Documented subprocessors
Compliant routes are backed by the provider DPA and, where applicable, a signed ZDR arrangement, recorded in the subprocessors register.
Reviewed regularly
Provider terms and “covered models” evolve. The posture and the excluded-models list are reviewed periodically.
