Cursor is an AI-powered coding platform made by Anysphere that helps developers write, suggest, and manage code using machine learning models.

Analyzed June 19, 2026

Summary

Cursor's terms are largely standard for an AI developer tool, with notably strong opt-in protections around AI training on user content and no sale of personal data. Risk areas include broad company termination/modification rights without notice, non-refundable fees by default, and a standard mandatory arbitration clause with class-action waiver (though an opt-out and small claims carveout are provided).
