OpenRouter removes opt-in logging licence clauses, adds organizational accounts, confidentiality and red-teaming terms
The grant clauses for opt-in prompt logging and chat logging, including the perpetual, irrevocable licence, are removed. The diff does not show whether the chat-logging example sentence about licensing or selling anonymized content was also removed. New terms add organizational accounts where an admin can configure logging, zero data retention and model training, a confidentiality section, and written-approval rules for red teaming. A DPA is now incorporated into the Terms, and sections are renumbered.
