IMPORTANT NOTICE – READ CAREFULLY

By connecting Istari’s software collaboration platform (“Istari Platform”) to your own Large Language Model (“LLM”) or other AI system, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms and responsibilities:

  1. DATA SPILL RISK – If chat history is enabled or Istari-connected data is used to train your LLM, sensitive or proprietary information may be exposed. You are solely responsible for preventing and mitigating such risks.

  2. CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY – You are solely responsible for your LLM’s configuration, privacy settings, security controls, and output accuracy, and for ensuring legal and contractual compliance.

  3. BETA USE (IF APPLICABLE) – If you use a beta version before Istari’s internal cyber approval, you accept it “AS IS”, without warranties, and entirely at your own risk.

  4. LIABILITY SHIFT – Istari disclaims all liability for any loss, damage, or claim arising from your LLM integration. You agree to indemnify Istari for any such matters.

By proceeding with the LLM integration, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted this disclaimer, and you assume all risks and liabilities associated with such integration.
