Trains on API data by default: Not found

True or false only where the text plainly says what happens to this offering's API data with no opt-in or opt-out by the customer. An opt-out with no stated default is left blank. Where pages differ: legal or privacy page first, then help or trust pages, then developer docs, with the other in conflicts.

No source we could use stated this. A blank never means no.

Default retention: For the period necessary to generate the output and then for thirty (30) rolling days to monitor abuse

How long prompts and outputs are kept by default, in the provider's words. Where pages differ: legal or privacy page first, then help or trust pages, then developer docs, with the other in conflicts. A page that's only less specific isn't a conflict: the more specific statement is the value.

Data we use to provide our APIs to you: Except for specific APIs, we keep your Input and Output for the period necessary to generate the Output and then for thirty (30) rolling days to monitor abuse (unless zero data retention is activated).

Exceptions: The opt-out preferences you selected (including through zero data retention) does not apply to labs or preview models

The main case with different retention, in the provider's words: first a model carved out of the general promise, then a feature, then a case such as flagged content. Pages rank as for Default retention; between pages of equal rank, the one naming the models. One passage only, so others may exist.

the opt-out preferences you selected for other Mistral AI Products (including through zero data retention) does not apply to Labs or Preview Models.
