Open the original- What it measures
- The table columns are endpoint, data used for training, abuse monitoring retention, application state retention, Zero Data Retention eligible, and Private Retention eligible. The same page says that by default abuse monitoring logs are generated for all API feature usage and retained for up to 30 days.
- What it does not show
- The page does not explain the difference between the table and its general 30 day statement for this endpoint. Treat the table as OpenAI's stated endpoint behaviour, check it against your account's terms, and do not assume it applies to other audio endpoints.
