Cursor updated its Privacy Mode documentation on June 10, 2026 to clarify how the feature operates. The updated language separates the availability of Privacy Mode (available to all users, free or Pro) from its default status (enabled by default for team members, inherited by new joiners). New language explicitly states that when Privacy Mode is enabled, Cursor will not train on user data, and adds that technical controls and contractual requirements with model providers protect user data. The practical effect is clearer disclosure of what Privacy Mode does and how it applies to team settings.
The updated terms clarify how Cursor's Privacy Mode functions and when it applies. When enabled, the policy now explicitly states that Cursor will not train on user data, and that technical controls and contractual requirements with model providers protect data. For teams, new members automatically inherit the team's Privacy Mode settings. This is a clarification of existing functionality rather than a new operational restriction or expanded authority.
→ Enable Privacy Mode in personal or team settings to prevent Cursor from training on your code data
→ For team administrators: Verify that Privacy Mode is enabled by default for your team and that new members inherit this setting
Updated terms explicitly state that Cursor will not train on user data when Privacy Mode is enabled.
