Companies change their terms quietly. We read every version and catch what actually changed. One email a week on the changes that matter and what they mean.
This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This document sets out what personal data Cursor collects, how long it keeps it, and who it may share it with. Cursor will not use what you type into the service to train AI models unless you explicitly agree, and it does not sell your data for advertising. If your account is tied to a work email, your employer's administrators may access and manage your account information.
Cursor's Privacy Policy establishes the conditions under which Cursor collects, uses, retains, shares, and protects personal data in connection with its Service. It prohibits using Inputs or Suggestions to train AI models absent explicit user agreement or a security-review flag, and commits to no automated decision-making with legally significant effects. Data sharing is authorized in defined circumstances: corporate transactions, legal compliance, and disclosure to organizations associated with a user's account email. Retention is limited to operational necessity and enumerated legitimate business purposes, and Cursor explicitly does not sell or share personal data for cross-contextual behavioral or targeted advertising. The Policy does not apply where Cursor acts as a data processor for commercial customers, whose data practices are governed solely by their customer agreements.
Your Inputs and any personal data embedded in them are collected by Cursor and may appear in the Suggestions returned to you, but Cursor will not use that content to train AI models unless you have explicitly agreed. If your account is linked to an organizational email address, Cursor may share your account information with that organization's administrators, who may manage your usage. Cursor treats your continued use of the Service after any Privacy Policy change as acceptance of that change. If you are a user of a commercial customer's deployment of Cursor, this Privacy Policy does not govern your data — your protections are determined by that customer's agreement with Cursor. To avoid model-training use of your content, do not affirmatively agree to training use when that option is presented.
