What the vendor documents
Recorded from the vendor's own trust, privacy and terms pages. "Not disclosed" means we found no public statement, not that the control is absent.
What the public documentation states
Purpose Legal pages describe eDiscovery, forensics, legal hold and Relativity hosting services, plus GenAI-enabled document review workflows. A GenAI review article says the company serves clients throughout North America, the EU and India. The audit did not find model providers, a DPA or a subprocessor list. No no-training statement, data-residency term, private-deployment term or zero-retention term was found. The privacy policy is effective May 15, 2023. The security protocol states SOC2 Type II Certifications and continuously maintained ISO 27001; no ISO 42001 statement was found. The audit did not find a public pricing model, list price, trial, minimum term or seat minimum. For accuracy, the GenAI review article describes result validation by calculating recall and precision metrics, but does not publish a numeric result in the audit rows.
In the vendor's words
“SOC2 Type II Certifications”
“continuously maintained ISO 27001”
“serves clients throughout North America, the EU, and India”
“calculating recall and precision metrics”
Not disclosed on public pages
"Not disclosed" records that no public statement was found where we looked, on the date shown. It does not assert that the control, term or figure is absent.
Not published on pages we read on 2026-09-06: DPA, model providers, subprocessor list, terms update date, pricing details, data residency, encryption at rest, ISO 42001, no-training terms, private deployment, SSO/SAML and zero retention. A law-firm procurement or DPIA review normally needs these points for hosted client documents, Relativity and GenAI processor mapping, confidentiality controls, review defensibility and GDPR Art. 28 terms.
Questions to put to the vendor
- Which generative AI model providers or review tools process client documents in the described workflows?
- Can Purpose Legal provide a DPA and current subprocessor list for Relativity hosting and GenAI review?
- Which hosting regions and data-residency choices apply for North America, EU and India matters?
- Is client matter data used to train any model, and what retention or zero-retention terms apply to prompts and outputs?
- What list price, fee model, term or seat minimum applies?
