ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The license is perpetual and irrevocable, meaning OpenRouter retains rights to the User Content for commercial purposes even if the user later opts out or terminates their account.

Interpretive note: The excerpt references prompt logging opt-in as the trigger condition, which is named in the clause title and consistent with the excerpt context. The evidence span does not repeat the opt-in trigger verbatim, but the full excerpt establishes it.

Medium Jul 7, 2026

The updated terms clarify that enabling prompt logging automatically activates chat logging as well, and grant OpenRouter a perpetual, worldwide license to use your content for service provision and commercial purposes. This includes the explicit right to license or sell your user content in anonymized form. Users accessing Stealth Program models must now also agree to a separate End User License Agreement. You can disable prompt logging in your account settings if you do not wish to grant these permissions.
