Cursor: current cost structure

Cursor publishes per-user Teams pricing and offers Enterprise on custom terms. Pricing and included usage may change; refer to the linked pricing page.

Security, privacy, and procurement

Verifiable guarantees instead of blanket promises.

Lurus Code processes source code and request context with Zero Data Retention.

Context required for a request is transmitted solely for processing and is not retained after processing is complete.

Customer data and source code are not used to train AI models.

The no-training guarantee applies to Lurus and every model provider connected through Lurus Code.

Zero Data Retention applies by default to every model and provider route.

Model, provider, and processing region are disclosed transparently for each route without limiting the Zero Data Retention guarantee.

Cursor: documented scope

With Privacy Mode enabled, Cursor documents no-training and ZDR agreements with model providers. Certain models, opt-ins, and abuse reviews have their own scope.
