The explicit disclaimer of absolute security means Sourcegraph Cody has not warranted that data will be fully protected, which is relevant if a breach occurs.
Interpretive note: The excerpt also states a commitment to industry-standard or better security practices, which is a separate proposition not stated in the canonical claim.
The updated policy establishes explicit definitions for 15+ categories of personal data Sourcegraph collects, including Analytics Data, Usage Data, Device and Connection Data, and AI feature usage patterns. Previously, the policy described data collection more generically; the revised language now specifies that Sourcegraph collects feature interaction data, user identifiers, prompt metadata, deployment information, and system configuration data. The policy clarifies that Sourcegraph acts as a Data Controller when collecting data directly from users and as a Data Processor when handling customer data under customer agreements. You can review the detailed definitions section to understand what specific data categories are collected and how they are used.
