Your Code, Your Control
Cursor takes data privacy seriously with a robust Privacy Mode that gives developers complete control over how their code is handled — and it's available on every plan, including free.
Privacy Mode
| Setting | Code Used for Training? | Behavior |
|---|
| Privacy Mode ON | ❌ Never | Code is not trained on; team members inherit the team's setting automatically |
| Privacy Mode OFF | May be used to improve models | Individual choice on personal plans |
Security Posture
- SOC 2 Type II Certified — report available at trust.cursor.com
- Annual penetration tests by third-party firms
- No infrastructure in China; self-serve account deletion; vulnerability reports to security-reports@cursor.com
Enterprise Features
- SAML/OIDC SSO (Teams and up) and SCIM provisioning (Enterprise)
- Orgs → Teams → Groups hierarchy for large deployments (June 2026)
- Audit logs, CMEK (Customer-Managed Encryption Keys), network config
- Access controls for repos, models, and MCP servers; AI code tracking API for measuring AI-authored code
- Team-wide Privacy Mode enforcement from the admin dashboard
Important: Even with Privacy Mode enabled, always follow your organization's security policies. AI-generated code should go through the same code review and security scanning as human-written code — that's exactly what Hooks and Bugbot are for.
