Event Summary

Windsurf's Security & Data Handling page was updated to remove one sentence from the opening paragraph. The phrase 'Copy page' was added in two locations within the document structure. This appears to be a formatting or editorial adjustment with no material change to the substantive security or data handling commitments stated in the policy.

LOW

Consumer Impact

This change is primarily editorial. The underlying security and data handling commitments stated on the page remain unchanged, including the statement that 'all data transmission is encrypted in transit and at rest.' The modification involves document formatting or structural organization rather than substantive changes to how Windsurf handles user data or security practices.

Governance Analysis

This change is a formatting adjustment with no material operational significance. The core security commitments, including data encryption in transit and at rest, remain as stated. Users' data handling rights and company security practices are unaffected.

Key Clauses Affected

data encryption commitment
