Baseten: data residency & retention

Where inference runs
Not disclosed
BaseTen Labs, Inc., 201 Spear St, Suite 1600, San Francisco, CA (per privacy policy). Runs a multi-cloud inference platform but does not publicly enumerate the regions serving its Model APIs; docs say compliance policies define 'the geographic regions where your workloads can run' and are read-only, managed by Baseten. Privacy policy notes data may be transferred internationally.
Region pinning
Enterprise plans only
Geographic workload policies exist but are managed by Baseten (not self-serve); organizations needing infrastructure control can use self-hosted deployments in their own VPC.
Prompt retention
Not retained
Docs: 'Baseten does not store model inputs, outputs, or weights by default' — zero-data-retention posture for synchronous inference. Async inference inputs are temporarily stored until processing completes (docs cite up to 24 hours in a secure queue); outputs are not stored.
Trains on API data
Not disclosed
Not explicitly addressed in the privacy policy or security docs reviewed; Baseten positions itself as inference infrastructure and stores no inputs/outputs by default, but publishes no express no-training clause.
Zero data retention
Available
ZDR is the default for synchronous inference ('does not store model inputs, outputs, or weights by default'), not a special tier.
