Hi All,

I am new to this cursor ai and downloaded the 1.7 version and have selected the legacy under privacy.

My question is that does cursor under this option share anything from my codebase to any of its server? I am mostly concerned about data privacy of my code base

Thank you

Tbh, If I had something really sensitive, I would go with Vim in a machine without internet. Lol!
