Retention Zero data retention. TrustedRouter's managed Vertex AI account is covered by contractual Zero Data Retention, but eligibility is reviewed per model and feature. Durable caching was disabled on October 29, 2026 and memory-only caching verified in four regions. Affected Gemini routes remain excluded from strict ZDR pending prior data expiration and model-specific review. Safety-retention and unreviewed routes are also excluded, even when described upstream as ZDR-aligned. This guarantee applies only to reviewed TrustedRouter-funded routes. TrustedRouter does not invoke Google Search or Maps grounding or Gemini Live session resumption on these routes. Google AI Studio is classified separately. Location Operator country: US Headquarters / registered office: Not verified. Inference: Inference location not verified; no country-specific residency commitment. No inference-location declaration has been verified for this provider. Region pinning through TR: No verified provider-specific location pin documented here. Weight format Unknown Price and speed Input $0.1055/1M · Cached input $0.01055/1M · Output $0.422/1M TTFT: 0.89 s Speed: insufficient data Last sample: |

Questions
What model ID should I use for Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite?
Use google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite 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 Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite?
TrustedRouter currently lists Google Vertex AI, and Atlas Cloud for Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite. Provider availability and routing eligibility can change as catalog and health data update.
How much does Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite cost through TrustedRouter?
The current lowest Credits input price is $0.1055/1M and the lowest Credits output price is $0.422/1M. Prices are per one million tokens and come from the current route catalog.
How do I require zero data retention for Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite?
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.
