How does privacy work with Claude Code in the real world? Its arbitrarily sending files from current folder/subfolders to anthropics cloud, right? Does Claude have a good privacy policy? E.g. do they promise not to retain what gets sent?

Because I think 'sending everything to the ai' would be a bit of an obstacle for most company environments

Almost every company on the planet sends ALL their data to the cloud.

They even PAY for this privilege.

  • Some companies are pretty careful and each cloud has to have the right certifications and there will be an internal data protection policy about what sorts of things are allowed to be uploaded there. Something like Claude Code which arbitrarily yeets local files to some cloud somewhere is a liability in that environment ... unless they have a very good privacy policy. hence my question.
