4.1 Indemnification by Client

Client will defend Copilex against any third-party claim arising from or relating to Client’s or End User’s use of the Services in violation of any term or condition of their Agreement, including any violation of these ToUs, or that Client or its End Users knew or reasonably should have known was likely to lead to violating their Agreement or these ToUs, and indemnify Copilex against any damages, costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees actually awarded against Copilex resulting from such claim.

4.2 Indemnification Procedures

The above indemnity obligations are conditioned upon Copilex (i) promptly giving the Client written notice of the claim, (ii) giving the Client sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim (except that the Client may not settle any claim unless the settlement unconditionally releases the Copilex of all liability, the settlement does not affect Copilex’s Intellectual Property Rights, and the Client pays any settlement fees), and (iii) gives the Client all reasonable assistance in connection with the defense or settlement of the claim, at the Client’s expense.

For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of this Section 4, a claim against Copilex shall be understood to include a claim against Copilex, its affiliates, and or its affiliates’ officers, directors, and employees.

5. WARRANTIES AND LIABILITY

5.1 AI limitations and responsibilities

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are fields of technology that are advancing at a rapid pace. Copilex is dedicated to enhancing the Services to ensure they are more precise, dependable, secure, and advantageous. Nonetheless, due to the inherent probabilistic nature of machine learning, there are instances where the Services might produce outputs that inaccurately represents real individuals, locations, or facts. This is particularly relevant in the context of generative AI and LLMs, which, despite their impressive capabilities, have certain limitations. These models can sometimes generate content that is biased, lacks context, or is factually incorrect because they rely on patterns in the data they were trained on, which may not always be comprehensive or up-to-date. Therefore, it is crucial for Users to assess the accuracy and quality of the outputs to ensure it is suitable for their specific use case, which includes implementing human oversight to review the output. Additionally, Users must ensure the legality of the information input by them in their use of the Services (User input and outputs are together referred to as “User Content”), verifying that its use does not infringe upon the rights of any third parties.

For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of this Clause, the output generated by Copilex’s Assistant shall not be viewed as legal advice.

Copilex is not a law firm, does not practice law and does not offer legal services. Hence, Copilex does not bear any legal responsibility for the output or any information that is derived from User’s use of the Services.

5.2 Services warranty

Copilex warrants during the Term, that (i) the Services will conform materially in accordance with these ToUs and (ii) it will perform the Services in a professional manner, in accordance with generally accepted industry standards.

Copilex also warrants that the Services, to its knowledge, do not infringe any third-party Intellectual Property Rights.

Except in case of gross negligence or willful misconduct by Copilex, Clients’ sole and exclusive remedies for a breach of this Clause 5.2 shall be to (i) request a remedy of the breach, and (ii) if remedial action is not taken or possible and the breach is material, exercise its termination rights under Clause 3.2.

Except for the warranties provided for in this section, the Services are provided on an as-is basis and Copilex disclaims all warranties express or implied (either in fact or by operation of law) or statutory, including all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quality, accuracy, non-infringement and title. Copilex does not represent or warrant that the use of the Services will be uninterrupted or error free. Copilex reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time to make improvements, additions, modifications (including removing features), and to correct any errors or defects in the Services, notwithstanding that such measures may temporarily impair Users’ access to or use of the Services.

5.3 Liability and limitations of liability

Neither Copilex or Users shall be liable under their Agreement for any indirect, special, incidental, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, including lost profits, lost opportunities, or cost of substitute services or other economic loss arising out of or in connection with their Agreement, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Other than with respect to (i) the Client’s payment obligations under this Agreement, (ii) Copilex’s and Client’s obligations under Clause 4 (Indemnification) and (iii) claims based on liability which, by law, cannot be limited (e.g. tort claims for gross negligence and intentional misconduct), Copilex’s aggregate liability shall not exceed the total fees paid or payable by the Client in the 12 months prior to the event that gave rise to the claim.

To be valid, any claims for damages shall be notified to the other party no later than 6 months from the time the relevant party became or should have become aware of the event giving rise to the claim, however, never later than 6 months after the expiration or termination of the Client Agreement.

Clients are liable for their affiliates use of the Services in compliance with this Agreement as if they were “Client” hereunder. Any claims arising under the Client Agreement may only be brought by the Client and not by its affiliates.

Clients are solely responsible to ensure that their End User’s use of the Services and their respective User Content are compliant with applicable export control legislation and trade sanctions.

6.3 Usage Data

Copilex may also collect Users’ usage technical data (“Usage Data”) to develop, improve, support and operate its Services.
