The Development Partner Program is an optional, transparent way for organizations to help shape the future of Claude while maintaining control over their data.
By default, Anthropic doesn’t train our generative models on your content. This commitment to privacy is core to how we build our products and services. Learn more about our commitment to privacy and how we handle your data in our privacy policy.
We recognize that many organizations want to contribute to the advancement of AI technology. The Development Partner Program allows you to voluntarily share Claude Code sessions with Anthropic to improve our services, including model training. This voluntary sharing helps us enhance Claude's coding capabilities across all users, improve our models based on actual developer workflows, and advance the field of AI-assisted coding.
