Training on your data (default tier)
Not stated in the privacy policy for traces and prompts logged to LangSmith; the platform terms and DPA govern customer data

LangSmith stores full traces, including prompts and completions, from instrumented applications. Whether that content is used to improve the platform is set by the customer terms, not the privacy policy. The open-source libraries send nothing to LangChain unless tracing is enabled.

We provide a unified developer platform LangSmith for developing, collaborating, testing, deploying and monitoring LLM applications (the “ Services ”).

Assessment

LangSmith cloud: mediumOpen-source libraries without tracing: low

Reasoning: The libraries themselves send no data. LangSmith tracing ships every prompt and response from an application to LangChain's cloud, which is the exposure: developers often enable it with an environment variable and forget. US by default, EU region available, self-hosting on enterprise plans.

Flags: Tracing sends full prompts and completions to the vendor · US processing by default · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
