ThoughtSpot's privacy statement is strong on data-subject rights, names international transfer safeguards, and makes a clear no-sale commitment. It stays silent on whether user inputs and search-query data feed AI model training, gives only vague retention language with no deletion timeline, and includes no breach-notification clause. That combination lands it in the middle of the C band.

What ThoughtSpot's privacy policy says about your data

Does not sell data

The statement says plainly that ThoughtSpot does not sell, rent, or trade personal data, and the California section repeats that it does not sell the personal data of California consumers. The selling indicator is full with no dealbreaker.

Strong international transfer safeguards

Transfers out of the EEA, UK, and Switzerland rely on named mechanisms. These are the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework self-certification with the UK Extension and the Swiss-U.S. framework, the European Commission adequacy decision, and Standard Contractual Clauses.

Full set of data-subject rights

Residents are told they may have the right to access, delete, receive a copy of, object to or restrict, port, and correct their personal data, with a contact channel at privacy@thoughtspot.com. This covers every D2 right.

Vague retention and silent on AI training

Retention is described only as needed to fulfill the purposes, with no day-count and no deletion timeline. The statement never says whether collected search-query or NLP input data feeds model training, so those indicators score half or zero.

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
