The updated policy expands disclosure of personal data Baseten collects directly from users, including device identifiers, location approximation, technical logs, and telemetry. The policy now explicitly states that Baseten acts as a processor of customer content under separate customer agreements, meaning customers (not Baseten) control how that content is used. For users accessing Baseten through an employer or organization, that organization controls the instance and associated customer content, and users should direct data access or deletion requests to their organization.
