Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Trae. This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") explains how we collect, use, share and otherwise process the personal information of users and other individuals in connection with Trae apps, websites, software, and related services (collectively, the "Platform" or "Trae") that link to or reference this Privacy Policy.

Data Controller: The Platform is provided and controlled by SPRING (SG) PTE. LTD., with its registered address at 77 Robinson Road, #06-03, Robinson 77, Singapore 068896 ("we" or "us").

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we use your personal information, please contact feedback@mail.trae.ai.

What Information We Collect

We collect your information in three ways: Information You Provide, Automatically Collected Information, and Information From Other Sources. More detail is provided below.

Information You Provide

User Content

We collect any information (including your prompts and any text/code and file uploads) that you choose to input into the Platform, including its AI-chatbot and other features.

Trae IDE: We also collect embeddings and metadata associated with your codebase files.
