Retention Zero data retention. Verification: provider E2EE not verified. Greenference SAS's DPA commits to EU-only inference, no persistent prompt/output storage and no training or secondary use. Shared prefix caches remain in volatile GPU memory until eviction or instance restart; they are not account-isolated and have no fixed maximum lifetime. Content-free operational metadata is retained. Greenference runs its own serving software on rented EU compute; this is contractual ZDR, not verified confidential compute or E2EE. Its current electricity mix is unverified, not a 100% renewable-energy commitment. Location Operator country: FR Headquarters / registered office: Not verified. Inference: EU-only inference, dynamically placed; no individual-country commitment. All inference is on Greenference-operated serving software on rented EU GPU capacity.

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.

Questions
What model ID should I use for gpt-oss-20b?
Use openai/gpt-oss-20b 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 gpt-oss-20b?
TrustedRouter currently lists Parasail, Greenference, Regolo, DeepInfra, SiliconFlow, Cloudflare Workers AI, Databricks, AkashML, IO Intelligence, Amazon Bedrock, and Weights & Biases for gpt-oss-20b. Provider availability and routing eligibility can change as catalog and health data update.
How much does gpt-oss-20b cost through TrustedRouter?
The current lowest Credits input price is $0.01/1M and the lowest Credits output price is $0.047475/1M. Prices are per one million tokens and come from the current route catalog.
How do I require zero data retention for gpt-oss-20b?
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.
