Retention Verification: no verified privacy claim. Tracked as no-store, not strict ZDR. DeepInfra documents memory-only handling and no training for ordinary inference, but reserves the right to log a small portion of requests for debugging or security. Google- and Anthropic-backed routes also inherit those vendors' terms. Location Operator country: US Headquarters / registered office: Palo Alto, California, United States. Company location source (reviewed 2026-09-27). Inference: US infrastructure plus announced Canadian capacity; model-specific residency unconfirmed. DeepInfra describes US infrastructure and announced its first international data center in Toronto on July 8, 2026. This is a provider footprint, not an exhaustive or model-specific placement list. DeepSeek V4.1 Flash placement has not been confirmed; do not declare this route US-only. Region pinning through TR: Not supported by the current TrustedRouter integration. Reviewed 2026-09-27.

Retention Verification: privacy unknown. In its September 28, 2026 marketplace submission, io.net states that inference prompts and completions are processed only in memory, are not stored or logged, and are not used for training. Content-free operational metadata is retained for billing, capacity planning and abuse prevention. This is a provider declaration: the reviewed public privacy policy does not establish inference-specific zero-retention terms, and the applicable DPA has not been reviewed. Routes remain Standard pending that evidence. Confidential compute is offered on request, but this integration has no verified confidential-compute or provider-side E2EE guarantee. Location Operator country: US Headquarters / registered office: West Hollywood, California, United States (operating address). Company location source (reviewed 2026-09-28). Inference: United States and Canada, provider-declared; no US-only or fixed-country guarantee on this route. io.net declares US and Canadian serving locations and data residency in its September 28, 2026 marketplace submission.

Retention Verification: privacy unknown. No provider-ZDR claim is tracked here. Novita's privacy policy says personal information is not used for model training; customer-content processing is governed by customer agreements.

Inference: Shared inference API; processing countries unconfirmed, no fixed-region commitment. No exhaustive inference-country list verified for the shared model API.

Questions
What model ID should I use for R1 0528?
Use deepseek/deepseek-r1-0528 as the model field with the TrustedRouter OpenAI-compatible API. Credits routing and provider fallback happen behind that model ID.
Do you log my prompts or outputs?
No. Prompt and output content are intentionally excluded from the control plane and metadata systems. Optional content export requires explicit destination-level configuration.
Which providers serve R1 0528?
TrustedRouter currently lists DeepInfra, Novita AI, and IO Intelligence for R1 0528. Provider availability and routing eligibility can change as catalog and health data update.
How much does R1 0528 cost through TrustedRouter?
The current lowest Credits input price is $0.5275/1M and the lowest Credits output price is $2.26825/1M. Prices are per one million tokens and come from the current route catalog.
How do I require zero data retention for R1 0528?
Set provider.min_privacy to zdr on the request. TrustedRouter considers only routes with a recorded zero-data-retention posture and fails closed if no eligible route remains.
