What it is

OpenRouter may share your personal data with a range of third parties including companies that run its technical infrastructure, analytics providers, advertising companies, and other business partners.

This analysis describes what OpenRouter's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The policy authorizes sharing of personal data with advertising and analytics vendors in addition to operational service providers, which may result in personal data being used for purposes beyond service delivery.

Interpretive note: The policy does not enumerate specific advertising or analytics vendors, making it difficult to assess the full scope of third-party data flows; the extent of sharing in practice cannot be determined from the document alone.
