How long does Codeium (Windsurf) keep your data?

The absence of defined retention periods makes it impossible for users to predict how long their data (including User Content) will be held. The broad exception for 'protecting interests' could justify extended retention beyond what users would expect.

Their words · Privacy Policy

“We retain your personal information as needed to provide our Service to you, comply with legal obligations, or protect ours or others interests. How long we retain personal information includes considerations such as when the information was collected or created, whether it is necessary in order to continue offering you our Services, whether we are required to hold the information to comply with our legal obligations, or information preservation requirements. We also keep certain information where necessary to protect the safety, security, and integrity of our Services or users. In line with these considerations, we delete information that is no longer needed for the above purposes or when you request deletion of your information.”
