update: Anthropic has not published the retention treatment of routing metadata, in particular whether a reroute counts only as caution (the 30-day safety-monitoring floor) or as a Usage Policy violation flag (the 2-year content and 7-year score horizons in Part I). That distinction is legally consequential, because a flagged Fable session could persist far longer than 30 days. The classifier's internal decision logic is also deliberately undisclosed.

I wonder how this plays into Anthropic's legal holds:

The retention schedule behind it:

Deleted conversations: removed from your chat history immediately, but kept on back-end systems for up to 30 days before permanent deletion. Flagged inputs and outputs (Usage Policy violation): retained up to 2 years. Trust-and-safety classification scores (on flagged sessions): retained up to 7 years. API logs: 7 days by default (as of September 14, 2025), extendable to 30 days via a DPA. Zero Data Retention (qualifying enterprise): inputs and outputs aren't stored after the API response returns, though safety classifier results are still retained even here.
