This provision places the full burden of data export on the Customer before termination, and the deletion timeline of 30 days for post-termination requests should be assessed against applicable data protection law requirements in relevant jurisdictions.
Interpretive note: The document states W&B will 'initiate' deletion within 30 days but does not specify when deletion will be completed, which may create ambiguity regarding compliance with GDPR Article 17 and other regulatory deletion timelines.
The updated agreement no longer includes language stating that a previously executed written agreement between Customer and W&B would govern and supersede the master service agreement. This removal eliminates explicit recognition of contractual hierarchy that may have applied to customers with signed agreements predating the master terms. The practical effect depends on whether such customers have separate agreements in place and how contract interpretation and applicable law would treat the relationship between a posted master agreement and a signed customer agreement absent explicit supersession language.
View change record →The updated Terms of Service no longer include the previous statement that services would become inaccessible from certain locations starting September 1st, 2025. This removal means the geographic restriction that was previously announced in the agreement is no longer formally stated in the current terms. Users who were affected by or concerned about the prior restriction should review current documentation to confirm whether any geographic limitations remain in effect.
View change record →Under this clause, customers who do not export their data before account termination or subscription expiration may lose access to that data, as the agreement places sole export responsibility on the Customer. Post-termination deletion requests can be submitted to support@wandb.com, and W&B states it will initiate deletion within 30 days of receipt.

"Customer is solely responsible for exporting Customer Data from the Software or Service prior to expiration or termination of this Agreement, in accordance with the Documentation. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, W&B will delete Customer Data in accordance with its policies. Customer may also request deletion of Customer Data post-termination by submitting an email request to support@wandb.com, and W&B will initiate deletion within 30 days of receipt.Excerpt from Weights & Biases's Terms of Service
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: GDPR Article 17 establishes a right to erasure and imposes specific timelines on data controllers and processors. The 30-day deletion initiation timeline should be evaluated against applicable regulatory requirements, noting that 'initiation' may differ from 'completion' of deletion. CCPA similarly provides deletion rights with specific response timelines. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The distinction between 'initiating' deletion within 30 days and completing deletion is not clarified in the document, which may create ambiguity regarding compliance with data protection law deletion obligations. The requirement that customers export data prior to termination is standard but operationally significant for organizations with large datasets. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA customers should assess whether the 30-day deletion initiation timeline satisfies GDPR Article 17 requirements. California customers should evaluate CCPA deletion request response timelines. Healthcare customers should assess HIPAA record retention requirements that may apply independently of the contractual deletion provisions. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams should negotiate clarity on deletion completion timelines, not just initiation timelines, particularly for customers in regulated industries. Data export planning should be incorporated into contract renewal and offboarding procedures. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Data governance teams should establish offboarding procedures that include Customer Data export well in advance of subscription expiration, document deletion requests and W&B responses for audit purposes, and assess whether the 30-day initiation timeline satisfies applicable regulatory deletion requirements.
