Cursor revised its Privacy Mode documentation to clarify how the feature works and what protections it provides. The updated language states that when Privacy Mode is enabled, Cursor will not train on user data, and implements technical controls and contractual requirements with model providers to protect data. The change also specifies that new team members inherit their team's Privacy Mode settings by default, rather than requiring individual configuration.
The updated terms clarify that Privacy Mode, available to both free and Pro users, prevents Cursor from training on user data when enabled. The revised language explicitly states that Cursor implements technical controls and contractual requirements with model providers to protect data. New team members now automatically inherit their team's Privacy Mode settings rather than requiring manual configuration.
→ Enable Privacy Mode in your Cursor settings if you want to prevent training on your code data
→ Verify that your team's Privacy Mode settings are configured as intended for new team members
