Overview
- Inputs: Upon receiving your input or content, including uploaded documents (“Prompts”), we generate a sanitized version of these Prompts (“Sanitized Prompts”) by removing sensitive data from Prompts using our proprietary data sanitization techniques.
- Outputs: We send Sanitized Prompts to external large language models (LLMs) and/or a private instance of an open-source LLM model to generate responses (“Outputs”, and together with Prompts and Sanitized Prompts, “Customer Content”) for our customers. Our dual approach allows us to leverage the strengths of various models to generate the most accurate and relevant Outputs based on the Sanitized Prompts.

You acknowledge, and agree to notify your end users that factual assertions in Outputs should not be relied upon without independently checking for accuracy, as they may be false, incomplete, inaccurate, unoriginal, or misleading.

Disputes
Disputes: In the event of a dispute, claim or controversy relating to these Terms (“Dispute”), the parties will first attempt in good faith to informally resolve the matter. The party raising the Dispute must notify the other party (“Dispute Notice”), who will have 15 days from the date of delivery of the Dispute Notice to propose a time for the parties to meet with appropriately leveled executives to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If the parties have not resolved the dispute within 60 days of delivery of the Dispute Notice, either party may seek to resolve the dispute through arbitration as stated below.
Arbitration: If the parties are unable to resolve Dispute through informal discussions, the Dispute (except those expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. EACH PARTY AGREES THEY ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND THE RIGHT TO JOIN AND PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER THE LAW IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”). Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The independent, expert arbitrator will make a decision in writing. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Santa Clara, California. Except as otherwise provided herein, the parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
Jurisdiction: If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Santa Clara, California, and the parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Exclusions: The parties further agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief.
Confidentiality: The arbitrator shall honor all evidentiary privileges recognized at law, and shall enter orders as appropriate in order to protect the parties’ trade secrets or confidential information. The parties agree to maintain either party’s trade secrets or proprietary business information as confidential and to protect the confidentiality of any other information (such as private customer information) that is legally protected from disclosure. However, we may each disclose these matters, in confidence, to our respective accountants, auditors, and insurance providers.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your use of Services; (2) breach of these Terms; (3) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Terms; (4) your violation of the rights of a third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights; or (5) any overt harmful act toward any other user of Services.
