Regulatory news and changes

What should we ask a supplier before sending data?

Frontier Development research deskSection 04 · Page 8 of 13Last updated 26 October 2026
Ask for Why it matters Evidence to retain
Contracting entity and subprocessors Defines who handles data and obligations Executed agreements and current subprocessor list
Processing purposes, locations and retention Distinguishes training, evaluation, support and logging Data-flow map and retention/deletion schedule
Reuse prohibition or precise permission Avoids ambiguous use of customer examples Contract clause covering raw and derived material
Base and teacher model terms Rights can differ across inputs and artefacts Dated licence and terms copies
Incident and material-change process A changed model can change risk and responsibility Notification clauses and operating contacts
Export and deletion method Rights need to be operationally usable Rehearsal record and deletion evidence

These are diligence requests, not a claim that each is mandated identically by every law. A supplier’s security badge should not substitute for checking the actual product configuration and contractual scope.
