Assessment

Chroma Cloud: mediumSelf-hosted open source: low

Reasoning: An open-source vector database with a hosted cloud. Self-hosting keeps everything internal. Chroma Cloud stores embeddings and document chunks in the US under a policy that does not address that data directly; the customer agreement should.

Flags: Stored collection data not addressed in the public policy · US hosting only · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
