Warp's approach to privacy and your control over your data
Last updated
If you have any questions about any of this, please don’t hesitate to reach out at privacy@warp.dev.
Our philosophy is complete transparency and control of any data leaving your machine. This means you can:
Read a complete list of all the telemetry events that get sent for app analytics
Monitor telemetry in real-time with Warp's native Network Log
Opt out of telemetry at any time
App analytics and crash reporting are used to improve the product and to debug any issues that may arise. Terminal sessions contain sensitive information, and we want the absolute minimum sent to Warp's servers necessary to provide you with the best possible experience.
Telemetry data never includes console input or output and usage of this data will never be part of Warp's business model.
You can read our full privacy policy as well as how Warp handles security.
For security-related issues or questions, please email security@warp.dev.
Follow the link to privacy settings
Toggle off app analytics, crash reports, or both (if it's blue, it's "on")
Navigate to Settings > Privacy, or open the Command Palette and search for "privacy"
Toggle off app analytics, crash reports, or both (if it's blue, it's "on")
Unique user identity is required to support Warp's collaborative features and it makes it easier for the Warp team to provide customer support, should you need to debug an issue.
Warp includes optional AI features you can choose to engage for assistance on the command line or across the Warp app. For Agent Mode, natural language detection happens locally, and you can choose to disable this at any time. Any AI requests are sent to the APIs through a proxy. No input or console data is collected or stored by Warp. No AI data is ever used to train public models. Zero data retention is available.
Warp provides a convenient way for you to delete your data:
From Warp, go to Settings > Privacy > "Visit the data management page"
Click the "Delete" button on the Data Management page to go through the data deletion flow.
From the Data Management page, log into your Warp account, and click the "Delete" button to go through the data deletion flow.
Deletion jobs run every 24 hours, so if you deleted your account and want to sign up again with the same email, you won't be able to do so until that deletion completes.
If you're a Team admin, the deletion flow will require that you assign a team member as the new admin.
Warp collects high-level usage data (never console input or output) to discover product quality issues and guide feature prioritization. Selling usage data will never be part of Warp's business model. This data is used solely to improve the end-user experience.
Warp uses Sentry for crash reporting and Rudderstack for app analytics.
