Summary

This is the Cody Enterprise Terms of Use from Sourcegraph, governing a specific cohort of enterprise customers who obtained their Cody license before January 29, 2025 under an Enterprise License granted before February 15, 2024. The most significant disclosure is that your code queries, called User Prompts and LLM Prompts, are transmitted to third-party LLM providers, though these providers agree not to retain that data beyond generating a response. If you use your own LLM API key, Sourcegraph's data protection commitments including Zero Retention and training restrictions no longer apply, so enterprise customers using bring-your-own-LLM configurations should review their direct LLM provider agreements.

Technical / Legal Breakdown

This document governs the use of Sourcegraph Cody under a specific set of Enterprise license conditions: it applies only where a Cody license was granted prior to January 29, 2025 and was added to an Enterprise License itself granted prior to February 15, 2024, with all other Cody use governed by the Sourcegraph Terms. The terms assert that users own all inputs and outputs generated by Cody, that Sourcegraph and its Partner LLMs do not use Enterprise or Pro team code to train models, and that Partner LLMs operate under a Zero Retention policy meaning inputs and outputs are not retained beyond the time required to generate a response. Notably, the terms disclose that Customer Content including User Prompts and LLM Prompts is shared with third-party LLM providers, and commitments regarding data retention and training representations do not apply if a customer brings their own LLM API key; additionally, for non-enterprise Sourcegraph.com users, User Prompts, LLM Prompts, and Responses are collected to support and improve user experience, though not used to train generally available models. The document engages GDPR, CCPA, and general data protection frameworks given its disclosure of third-party data sharing with LLM providers and differentiated data handling across deployment types. A liability cap of five times annual license fees applies to breaches of confidentiality or data security in connection with Cody use for customers with otherwise uncapped liability provisions, and IP indemnification is stated as uncapped for customers on a signed Order Form using the current version with Sourcegraph-provided filters.
