Start SetupProvider responsibilities for pooled data
Temporary content, not saved chats
New private pooled prompts and outputs use a memory-only buffer with no disk persistence or buffer backups. Inputs expire within 120 seconds; outputs expire within 60 seconds or are removed when receipt is confirmed. The pool refuses new work if verified private handling is unavailable.
Provider policy and app checks
Use the approved, unmodified desktop app, explicitly accept the provider policy, and pass current model and inference checks. Do not capture, retain, share, forward, resell or train on buyer content.
Billing records remain
Usage, timing and payment metadata are retained for billing and abuse prevention, not a reusable prompt/output history. These commitments apply to new private pooled requests, not dedicated listing access or earlier stored requests.
For the full processing, retention and usage terms, see Privacy and the Provider Usage Policy.
Check your connection and pool qualification in your dashboard. Need the app? Install or update the desktop app. Unofficial native builds are supported; current app checks and qualification are still required.
