When using Zed Collaboration Services, User Content is transmitted from Your environment only if You collaborate with other Zed users by electing to share a project in the Editor. Once You share a project, Zed may transmit User Content consisting of file paths, file contents, and metadata regarding the code returned by language servers. Currently, Zed does not persist any User Content beyond the Your collaboration session. If You unshare a project or disconnect from the Solution, all information associated with such project will be deleted from Zed servers. In the future, Zed may save User Content regarding projects beyond the scope of a single collaboration session. We may share such User Content with those users You elected to grant access to. Zed's access to such User Content is limited to debugging and making improvements to the Solution.

#### 3.3.5.2. Other Services

The Zed Editor supports integration with API-based services maintained and not operated by Zed (the "Other Services"). By way of example, Other Services includes those made available by GitHub, Anthropic, OpenAI, and similar providers, or those You host or manage directly. You may configure the Zed Editor to interoperate, communicate with, and exchange data (including User Content) directly with the Other Services. Zed is not responsible or otherwise liable with respect to Your use of any Other Service, including but not limited to the exchange of data between the Other Service and the Zed Editor. The terms and conditions, including the applicable privacy policy, with respect to the Other Service are those made available by the applicable Other Service, not these Terms.

#### 3.3.5.3. Zed AI Services

The Zed Editor supports integration with API-based services maintained and operated by Zed (the "Zed AI Services"). You may elect to use Zed AI Services as the provider for various Zed Editor features (e.g., Agent Panel, Inline Assistant, Edit Predictions, and similar features). In connection with Your use of these features, the Zed Editor and Zed AI Services may make use of User Content to generate contextually relevant responses (the “Output”). Other than as specified in Section 3.3.5.4 of these Terms, Zed will not use User Content for training of its models, or disclose User Content.

Output is provided "as is" without any warranties or guarantees of functionality, security, or fitness for a particular purpose. While efforts are made to ensure the accuracy and reliability, Output may include errors, vulnerabilities, and defects. You are responsible for reviewing, testing, and validating Output before use in any production or critical environment. Zed assumes no liability for any damages, losses, or liability arising from the use, modification, reliance on, or deployment of Output. Any such use is at Your own risk.

#### 3.3.5.4. Improvement Feedback

When using Zed AI Services to provide Edit Predictions in connection with certain open source software projects, You may elect to share requests, responses and feedback comments (collectively "Model Improvement Feedback") with Zed, and Zed may use the same to improve Zed Edit Predictions models. You may opt-out of sharing Model Improvement Feedback at any time.

For more information on Zed Edit Predictions please see: [https://zed.dev/docs/ai-improvement](https://zed.dev/docs/ai-improvement)

When using Zed AI Services in connection with the Agent Panel, You may elect to share with Zed requests, responses and feedback regarding the Agent Panel and related Output (the “Agent Improvement Feedback”) with Zed, and Zed may use the same to improve the Agent Panel and related Output. Zed will only collect Agent Improvement Feedback when You elect to share the same.

For more information regarding the Agent Panel please see: [https://zed.dev/docs/ai-improvement](https://zed.dev/docs/ai-improvement)

#### 3.4. Privacy Policy

You and Zed are bound by the terms and conditions contained in the Zed Privacy Policy which is incorporated by reference hereto. The Zed Privacy Policy is available at the following URL: [https://zed.dev/privacy-policy](https://zed.dev/privacy-policy).
