Where any payments or transfers are handled by a third party service provider, they are subject to third party service provider’s terms and conditions.

We accept no responsibility or liability in relation to payments processed by the third party service provider. Any issues which you experience in making payments to us may be raised with us, however, we reserve the right to require you to liaise with third party service providers directly.

We reserve the right to determine the nature of the account credits, and the cost of purchasing account credits.

If your account credit balance drops below a level specified by you (if we permit such specification on our Services), or otherwise zero, and you have nominated an automatic top-up amount, you authorise us to automatically charge your saved method of payment with your nominated top up amount to credit your account with further account credits.

  1. User data and content

Nothing in these Terms affects your ownership of Content created, developed, or otherwise uploaded or submitted by you (referred to as User Content). You will, at all times, retain all right, title, and interest in and to all of your User Content.

However, you acknowledge and agree that, to allow our Services to function as intended, it may be necessary for us to store, host, copy, transmit, communicate, display, use, modify, create derivative works of, and back up, your User Content in connection with the delivery of our Services to you (Serve).

You grant us a royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive licence to Serve your User Content which you upload, create on, or otherwise make available to, our Services.

Our AI legal assistant software application adopts an agentic framework, whereby we may use our proprietary technology in combination with one or more third party technology services (which may be based overseas) to allow us to Serve User Content or deliver our Services to you. This framework allows us to dynamically determine if and when, and how, we use such third party services, depending primarily on how you use our Services (i.e. the requests you make of our application).

You acknowledge and agree that, to the extent that we use any such third party technology or service providers, you grant us the right to sublicense our rights under these Terms for the purpose of Serving your User Content and delivering our Services to you. We will ensure that all third party technology or service providers do not store any User Content, or only store User Content temporarily for legal compliance purposes, eventually being deleted permanently.

In relation to our AI legal assistant application only (and not our other Services, for example, social media groups or pages):

  • any User Content which you upload to our Site, or which you generate using our AI legal assistant application, is segregated from User Content generated by other users;
  • each user account (and all associated sub-accounts) will only be Served their own User Content, and not the User Content of other users;
  • we will endeavour to ensure that any third party technology or service provider which we use to process your User Content or requests either does not store your User Content, or only stores it temporarily for legal compliance purposes; and

(Note: that this does not include our third party cloud data storage provider which we use to store your User Content and Serve it to you within our application. All such User Content will be stored until you delete it within our application.)

  • we do not use your User Content to train our artificial intelligence software which makes it impossible for your User Content to be inadvertently disclosed by us to any other user or third party.

You are solely responsible for all of your User Content. You must not rely on our Services as a primary means of storing your User Content or other data. While we observe best practice policies and procedures to prevent data loss, we are not responsible for any damage, loss, cost, liability, expense, injury or death of any kind and however arising including penalties, fines and interest whether prospective or contingent and any amounts that for the time being are not ascertained or ascertainable (Loss) that you may suffer due to not appropriately backing up your User Content and other data outside of our Services.

Where any User Content includes any information which is personal information or personal data within the meaning of applicable data privacy laws, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • we have no responsibility whatsoever to determine the application or otherwise of data privacy laws to any such User Content; and
  • any User Content that we Serve which is, or contains, personal information or personal data falling outside the scope of our Privacy Policy is handled by us only as your technology service provider for the purpose of Serving it in accordance with our Terms, and will not otherwise be deemed to be collected, stored, or disclosed by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy. In other words, you remain responsible for complying with your own privacy obligations, for which we take no responsibility as a technology provider.
  1. Affiliate program

We may offer an affiliate program, which is subject to any affiliate terms and conditions that may be published on our Site from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that we may vary such terms and conditions at any time without prior notice to you. Your continued use of our Services will constitute an automatic acceptance of any such variations made by us.

  1. Promotions and discounts

We may offer promotions and discounts from time to time. All promotions and discounts are offered subject to these Terms and any other terms and conditions specified by us.

  1. Security

You must ensure that you keep secure and confidential all login credentials (e.g. username and password) required to access our Services.

We may require you to update your login credentials (such as passwords) on an ad-hoc or periodic basis, as determined by us, to maximise the security of our systems for your protection. We will provide you with reasonable notice of any such requirement.

We may support multi-factor authentication to access our Services using one-time-use codes sent to the mobile number or email address associated with your account. Where supported by us, we encourage you to use multi-factor authentication to secure your account. We understand that some professional indemnity insurers require the use of multi-factor authentication.

You must immediately notify us of any unauthorised use of your login credentials, or any other breach of security.

Where there is unauthorised access or a breach of security, we will take appropriate steps to rectify the unauthorised use or breach of security, including by, without limitation, cancelling and resetting the relevant login credentials, and you must take all other actions that we reasonably deem necessary or desirable to maintain or enhance the security of our computing systems and networks and your access to our Services.

We will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that we provide a secure environment for any data stored or hosted on our systems, including by encrypting your data. You acknowledge however that no information which is available on the Internet is completely secure and you agree that we will not be liable for any Loss suffered by you or any third party if our security measures (or those of any of our third party service providers) are overcome or breached.

We maintain appropriate technical and operational measures, internal controls, and data security routines intended to protect your data against accidental loss or change, unauthorised disclosure or access, or unlawful destruction. We are not responsible for the security of any data stored on any personal computer, laptop, mobile or other device owned or controlled by you.

To the extent that we have attained third party certification for standards compliance (e.g. ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II Compliance), we commit to ensuring ongoing compliance with such standards as per the relevant requirements.
