vs category average
Tabnine earns a solid GDPR-style data-subject rights section and an explicit no-sale promise, but its privacy policy stays completely silent on whether user code and inputs train its AI models, and it gives only vague retention and security commitments. For a coding assistant the missing training disclosure is a meaningful gap, and the score reflects strong rights handling alongside that silence. The grade survives adversarial review: no dealbreaker was raised on silence, the no-sell clause is favorable rather than adverse, no certification or mechanism was fabricated, and the score and letter sit correctly below the ChatGPT calibration anchor.
What Tabnine's privacy policy says about your data
Training silence
For an AI coding assistant the policy never says whether user code or inputs are used to train models, and no opt-out is named anywhere, so the whole training-data domain scores zero on documented silence.
Strong rights
The Your Rights section grants access, rectification, erasure, portability, and objection, and the California section adds a verified request process with a 45-day response window that can extend to 90 days.
Does not sell
The California notice states plainly that Tabnine does not sell your Personal Information and does not share sensitive Personal Information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Vague retention and security
Retention is described only as not retaining information longer than necessary with no day count, and security is described as industry standard measures, with a breach response that promises to minimize harm but names no notification timeframe.
What the policy is silent or vague on
- Not stated: keeping user inputs out of model training
- Not stated: a way to opt out of training
- Not stated: whether training use differs by plan
- Not stated: your ownership of generated outputs
