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.
