How can I use Splunk so our company data is not shared with anyone?

I know this question has been asked before today...

My company is researching Splunk, and we have a strict policy that we do not share data with anyone outside our firm. If I am reading your documentation correctly, when using Splunk my data is uploaded to Splunk. Do I have the option to utilize Splunk without sharing the data, which would keep me in compliance with my company's data use and storage policies?

If you install Splunk on your own servers the data stays there and is not shared with anyone.

So, you need to have a enterprise license to have Splunk stored on my server?

I have the 60 Day Free Enterprise Package. Will the data remain on my server? Or, do I need to upgrade to a full license to keep the data on my server

The data stays on your server until it expires. Then it is deleted. It never leaves your server.
