Disclaimer & Terms of Use

1. Who we are

SafeLegalAI is a research publication about AI in legal practice and a free resource from LegalAI Space, a Cognesio product. The site is operated by Cognesio LLP, 9th Floor, Tower D, Unitech Cyber Park, Sector 39, Gurugram, Haryana 122001, India. Cognesio LLP is not a law firm, is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority or any bar, and does not provide legal services. LegalAI Space is an affiliated product (affiliated product); that relationship is disclosed wherever it matters and LegalAI Space is never scored, ranked, compared or counted here.

2. Not legal advice; no professional relationship

Nothing on this site, in any dataset, feed, widget, block, chart or email is legal advice, regulatory advice or professional advice of any kind, in any jurisdiction. Reading, downloading, subscribing, embedding or emailing us creates no lawyer–client, adviser–client or fiduciary relationship. Our pages are pointers to primary documents, not substitutes for them. If a point affects a live matter, a filing, a client, a contract, a procurement or a risk decision, read the primary document and take advice from a qualified professional in the relevant jurisdiction.

3. What we publish, and what we do not

We record findings made by others; we do not make findings. The Incident Tracker records what courts, tribunals and regulators found and ordered, quoting or summarising public documents. The Regulation Tracker and the regulatory map record what official texts say, under an editorial classification that is ours. The legal tech record and every comparison record what vendors state on their own public pages. The EU AI Act tables record what the Regulation says. We do not assess whether a lawyer acted properly, whether a rule is good, whether a product is safe, or whether a vendor's statement is true; we record that the statement was made, where and when.

Editorial classifications (status labels, requirement codes, risk tiers, "reaches legal practice", severity colours, "documented yes / no / not disclosed") are our reading of a document for comparison purposes. They are opinions about documents, expressed in good faith, and the document prevails.

4. Research method and AI use

SafeLegalAI is made with substantial AI assistance: AI monitors sources, extracts structured facts, compares versions, drafts summaries and article drafts, and codes documents against our schemas. AI does not decide what the law is, make findings about people or publish by itself. The SafeLegalAI editorial team opens every linked primary source before a record or article that depends on it is marked verified, checks quotes, dates, names, status labels and figures, and signs off. For articles a separate fact-check re-tests claims against sources.

Records that have not yet been through that human step are labelled provisional, unverified or draft, are kept out of search indexes, feeds, widgets and syndication, and must be treated as leads, not findings. See what "provisional" means.

"Last checked" means the linked official documents were re-opened on that date and the status shown was confirmed then; it does not mean no later change exists. Known limits include coverage gaps, time lag, paywalled systems, unofficial translations, pages that move or disappear, and the possibility of error in AI-assisted extraction that human review did not catch. We publish corrections openly on the content log.

5. Accuracy, currency and completeness

We aim to be accurate and current, but legal and vendor materials change and our resources are finite. We never promise completeness: "every incident" means every incident we have verified; a count is a count of our records, not a census. If an official source changes after our last check, the official source prevails. Archive copies show what we saw at the time.

6. People and organisations named in records

Where a record names an individual, a firm, a court, a regulator or a company, it does so because that party is named in a public court document, official publication, regulator notice or the party's own published material, and the record reports what that document says. Such reports are fair and accurate reports of public judicial and regulatory proceedings and documents, published in good faith and in the public interest, and are protected as such by the fair-report and public-interest defences available in the jurisdictions where they are read.

A record may summarise allegations as allegations, findings as findings, and sanctions, referrals and later outcomes as they appear in the record. Where a decision is appealed, vacated, reversed, varied or later explained, we add a dated contextual note when we learn of it. Anyone named may exercise a right of reply, request a correction, or supply a later disposition through the report page or hello@safelegalai.com; we acknowledge within 7 days and respond substantively within 28 days. We do not remove accurate reports of public records, but we correct errors and add context.

7. Vendors, products and comparisons

The legal tech record, the documentation audit and every side-by-side comparison are facts registers, not endorsements, rankings, ratings, reviews or recommendations. An entry records what a vendor states on its own public pages (pricing, security, terms, privacy, DPA, sub-processors, accuracy claims) on a stated date, with a link and, where possible, an archived copy. "Not disclosed" or "no price published" means we did not find the point stated on the pages we read on that date; it is not an assertion that the vendor lacks the certification, term or price. Marketing claims are recorded as claims. Vendor accuracy or hallucination figures are recorded as the vendor's own statements unless a named third party published them.

Vendors may correct a record by sending the public page that states the fact to the report page; we re-check and update within 7 working days, and the change is logged. We do not accept payment for listing, placement, facts or their omission.

8. Trademarks, names and logos

All product names, company names, court names, regulator names, logos and marks are the property of their respective owners. They are used solely to identify the product, body or document referred to (nominative use). Their use implies no affiliation with, endorsement by, sponsorship by or approval from the owner, and SafeLegalAI claims no rights in them. Logos are shown at small size for identification only; a mark owner who prefers a text-only reference may ask via hello@safelegalai.com and we will comply. "SafeLegalAI" and the shield-and-square mark are marks of SafeLegalAI.

9. Quotations, excerpts and third-party material

We quote court judgments, orders and rules (public domain or open-licensed), legislation and regulator documents (open government or EU reuse terms), academic papers and vendor web pages for the purposes of reporting current events, criticism, review and quotation, with attribution and a link, and only to the extent needed to identify and verify the statement reported. Quotations from copyright material are short (vendor pages: 25 words or fewer per fact). We do not reproduce paywalled content, and we do not copy third-party databases or compilations; where a third-party tracker or list led us to a document, we credit it and go to the primary source. Where the Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 or other EU texts are reproduced, they are reused under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU and the text is © European Union; only the Official Journal is authentic. UK public-sector text is reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0 where applicable; Find Case Law material is used under the Open Justice Licence.

If you own rights in material you believe is reproduced here beyond these purposes, send a notice to hello@safelegalai.com identifying the material, the page URL, your rights and your contact details; we will respond within 7 days and remove or reduce the material where the notice is well founded.

10. Data licence and terms of reuse

Our datasets — the incident tracker, regulation tracker, regulatory map, legal tech record, EU AI Act coding, court-order and vendor-fact compilations, hallucination-measurement registry, feeds, syndication blocks, widgets and chart exports — are licensed under CC BY 4.0: reuse, redistribute and adapt them, including commercially, with attribution to "SafeLegalAI (safelegalai.com), published by SafeLegalAI" and a link to the record or dataset. The underlying source documents keep their own status and licences (public domain court records; EU and UK open reuse terms; vendor pages under their owners' copyright, quoted briefly). You may not present our records as findings of your own, strip attribution, imply our endorsement, or use them in a way that suggests official status. The CC BY 4.0 licence excludes all warranties and limits liability (section 5); those exclusions apply to every dataset. Pipeline code in our repositories is under the Apache License 2.0, which likewise disclaims warranty (section 7).

Articles, page text, design and the SafeLegalAI marks are © Cognesio LLP unless a page says otherwise; short quotations with attribution and a link are welcome.

11. Widgets, feeds, syndication and mirrors

Embeddable widgets, RSS feeds, syndication blocks and our GitHub and Hugging Face mirrors are provided as a convenience, as is, and may change, break or be withdrawn without notice. They reflect the record at generation time. Embedding a widget or running a block does not make SafeLegalAI responsible for the host page, nor does it make the host an agent or partner of SafeLegalAI; the credit line and record links must stay visible. Widgets set no cookies and collect no personal data from the host site's visitors; the only telemetry is a referral tag on links back to our records.

12. External links

External links open in a new tab. We link to courts, regulators, legislatures, vendors, archives and research bodies; we do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, privacy practices or later edits. Links to commercial sites may carry referral tags so vendors can see traffic came from SafeLegalAI; links to courts, regulators and legislation never do. A link or quotation is not an endorsement.

13. Maps, boundaries and jurisdiction names

Map boundaries are drawn from Natural Earth's Admin-0 dataset in its India point-of-view edition, with Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh drawn within India. The regulatory map is an index to our records, not a statement by SafeLegalAI on sovereignty, borders, legal status or recognition. Country and territory naming follows ISO 3166 short names except where a jurisdiction's own official name is clearer. Boundary or naming concerns: the report page.

14. How we collect data

Our automated collection reads only public pages and documents, identifies itself as SafeLegalAI-Bot with a contact address, honours robots.txt and rate limits, uses no accounts, logins, paywall circumvention or form submission, fetches each document once, and stores the source URL, fetch date and, where possible, an archived copy for every fact. Site operators who prefer not to be crawled may tell us at hello@safelegalai.com.

15. No warranty

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site, its content and every dataset, feed, widget, block, chart, export and mirror are provided "as is" and "as available", without any warranty, condition or representation of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, currency, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, or that access will be uninterrupted or error-free. Statements about what a court, regulator or vendor said are made in good faith from the documents cited; we do not warrant that the documents are themselves correct, current or complete.

16. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cognesio LLP, its members, staff, contributors and licensors are not liable for any loss or damage arising from or in connection with the site or the data — including reliance on any record, classification, comparison or figure; missed or late updates; errors in source documents or in our extraction; third-party content; loss of profit, revenue, business, goodwill or data; professional sanction; regulatory action; business interruption; or any indirect or consequential loss — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, even if foreseeable. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to £100.

17. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for how you use the site and the data, for complying with the laws that apply to you, and for verifying any record against its primary source before relying on it. If you redistribute our data or embed our widgets, you are responsible for your own publication and for keeping attribution intact. You agree not to use the site or data to harass, defame or unlawfully target any person named in a record, to scrape the site in breach of robots.txt or at a rate that impairs it, or to present our records as official or as your own findings.

18. Corrections, complaints, rights of reply and takedown notices

Use the report page for corrections, incident tips, vendor updates, map concerns and rights of reply, or email corrections to hello@safelegalai.com, legal, copyright, trade mark and data-protection notices to hello@safelegalai.com, and tips to hello@safelegalai.com. Include the page URL, the disputed text, the source you rely on and the change you request. We acknowledge notices within 7 days; corrections are logged publicly on the content log.

19. Severability

Nothing in these terms excludes any mandatory rights that cannot be excluded for consumers in their country of residence. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in force.

20. Privacy and changes

Personal data is covered by our privacy notice. We update this page when our ownership, methods, licence or terms change; the date at the top shows the current version, and material changes are noted on the content log. Continued use after a change is acceptance of the new terms.
