Customer is responsible for all acts and omissions of Users, and any act or omission by a User that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by Customer will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by Customer.

4. Data; Proprietary Rights
[This section has been substantially revised from the original template to address enterprise requirements for data ownership, AI model training restrictions, and data isolation.]
4.1 Definitions
“Customer Data” means non-public documents, files, and other data uploaded or provided by Customer and its Users to Company to enable the provision of the Services. Customer Data does not include queries or responses. “Input” means queries, prompts, and instructions provided by Customer and its Users to the Services. “Output” means content generated by the Services in response to Input. Output may be derived from Customer Data. “Content” means Input and Output collectively. For clarity, Content (including Input and Output) is treated as Customer Data for purposes of data protection, security, and confidentiality obligations under the Terms, including the Data Processing Addendum and Security Addendum.
4.2 Customer Data Ownership
Company acknowledges that, as between Company and Customer and subject to the rights and licenses granted in this Agreement, Customer owns all right, title, and interest, including all Intellectual Property Rights, in and to Customer Data. Customer hereby grants to Company a non- exclusive, royalty-free license to Process Customer Data solely as necessary to provide the Services to Customer in accordance with this Agreement and the Data Processing Addendum.
4.3 No Training Commitment
Company will not train any AI models using Customer Data or Content. Company’s third-party model providers (Subprocessors) will not train any AI models using Customer Data or Content. Subprocessors, except for cloud storage providers, will not retain or log for human review Customer Data or Content.
4.4 Data Processing Restrictions
Company will only access, Process, or use Customer Data and Content:
- consistent with this Agreement and as required to provide the Services;
- in accordance with its Privacy Policy (visalaw.ai/privacy-policy) and Data Processing Addendum;
- as authorized or instructed by Customer;
- as required by law; or
- for legal, safety, or security purposes.
4.5 Data Security Obligations
Company will:
- maintain reasonable physical and technical safeguards to protect against the unauthorized disclosure of or access to Customer Data and Content, as further described in the Security Addendum;
- notify Customer if it becomes aware of any unauthorized disclosure of or access to Customer Data or Content in accordance with the Security Addendum;
- ensure that any sharing of Customer Data or Content with an authorized third party (e.g., Subprocessors) will be in compliance with applicable law and subject to contractual protections no less protective than those in this Agreement; and
- not access Customer Data or Content except (i) to provide or support the Services, or (ii) to comply with the law or a binding order of a governmental body.
4.6 De-Identified and Aggregate Data
Company may generate de-identified data from Customer Data and Content (“De-Identified Data”) and aggregate, anonymous statistics regarding use of the Services (“Analytic Data”), provided that:
- de-identification is performed in accordance with the standards set forth in the Data Processing Addendum, ensuring the resulting data set contains no amount or type of personal information, including removal of all direct identifiers. De-identification applies only to operational metadata, not to matter-level content, which remains within the Customer’s tenant environment;
- Company will not attempt to re-identify any De-Identified Data and will contractually prohibit downstream recipients from doing so;
- De-Identified Data derived from Customer’s data will not be pooled or commingled across customers. De-identification applies only to limited operational metadata (e.g., system performance metrics, feature usage patterns, error rates) as described in the Data Processing Addendum. Matter-level content will not be pooled across customers under any circumstances;
- Analytic Data will not directly or indirectly identify Customer or any individual; and
- Company will treat all De-Identified Data and Analytic Data as Customer’s Confidential Information for a period of twelve (12) months after generation thereof. This confidentiality period does not limit Company’s obligations under the Data Processing Addendum, including the prohibition on re-identification and the restrictions on pooling, which continue without time limitation.
4.7 Output
Customer represents and warrants that Customer has all rights, licenses, and permissions required to provide Input to the Services. Customer is solely responsible for all use of the Output and evaluating the Output for accuracy and appropriateness for each use case. The Services are a research and drafting tool, and Output is not legal advice. Output is AI-generated and may contain errors, misstatements, or may be incomplete.
4.8 Company IP
As between the parties and subject to the grants expressly set forth in this Agreement, Company owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, De-Identified Data, Analytic Data, and all Intellectual Property Rights embodied in or related to the foregoing. For clarity, Company’s ownership of De-Identified Data is subject to the restrictions and obligations set forth in the Data Processing Addendum, including the prohibitions on re-identification and pooling.
4.9 Processing Definition
“Process” means to take any action or perform any operation or set of operations that the Services are now or hereafter capable of taking or performing on any data or content, including to collect, receive, store, organize, use, transmit, retrieve, output, display, or delete. “Processing” and “Processed” have correlative meanings.
4.10 No Implied Rights
Only the licenses and rights expressly granted herein will be of legal force and effect. No license or other right will be created hereunder by implication, estoppel or otherwise.
5. Confidentiality
5.1 Definition
“Confidential Information” means all information disclosed (whether in oral, written, or other tangible or intangible form) by one party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other party (the “Receiving Party”) concerning or related to this Agreement or the Disclosing Party that is marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary” or with similar designation, or that would reasonably be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and circumstances of disclosure. Content specific to Customer and Customer Data are Customer’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information will not include information that (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) the Receiving Party can reasonably demonstrate was in its possession prior to first receiving it from the Disclosing Party; (c) the Receiving Party can demonstrate was developed independently without use of or reference to the Confidential Information; or (d) the Receiving Party receives from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without breach of a nondisclosure obligation.
5.2 Obligations
The Receiving Party will maintain in confidence the Confidential Information during the Term and for the 10-year period commencing upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement and will not use such Confidential Information except as expressly permitted in this Agreement. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care in protecting the Confidential Information as the Receiving Party uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information, but in no event less than reasonable care. The Receiving Party will only disclose Confidential Information to its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, vendors and/or contractors who have a need to know and are under an obligation to maintain confidentiality.
5.3 Security Incident
The Receiving Party will give notice to the Disclosing Party of any confirmed or reasonably suspected breach of security that compromises the confidentiality, security, integrity, or availability of Confidential Information, Customer Data, or Content (a “Security Incident”) in accordance with the timelines and procedures set forth in the Security Addendum. For the avoidance of doubt, “Security Incident” as used in this Agreement, “Personal Data Breach” as defined in the Data Processing Addendum, and “Security Incident” as defined in the Security Addendum shall be interpreted consistently, with the broadest applicable definition governing notification and response obligations. Notwithstanding any limitation of liability or indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement, (i) the Receiving Party shall be responsible for its own costs, expenses and/or losses arising from a Security Incident caused by its negligent or willful acts or omissions; and (ii) the Receiving Party shall reimburse the Disclosing Party for costs, expenses and/or losses resulting from any such Security Incident affecting Confidential Information.
5.4 Equitable Relief
Each party acknowledges that a breach of this Section 5 cannot reasonably or adequately be compensated in damages in an action at law. Each party agrees that the other party will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies, to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or curtail any breach of the obligations relating to Confidential Information.
5.5 Return of Confidential Information
Promptly upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, each party will return to the other party all tangible items regarding the Confidential Information of the other party and all copies thereof. Each party may retain one copy for its legal files solely for determining its obligations hereunder. Any retained Confidential Information continues to be subject to this Agreement.
