10. SOFTWARE LICENSES

To the extent applicable, you shall have no rights to any proprietary software and related documentation, or any enhancements or modifications thereto, provided to you in order to access the certain Site features or Content (collectively, “Software”). You may not sublicense, assign or transfer any licenses granted by GNYAS, and any attempt at such sublicense, assignment or transfer shall be null and void. You may make one copy of such Software for archival purposes only. You may not otherwise copy, distribute, modify, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from Software.

11. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Certain Site features may generate or analyze content through the use of artificial intelligence enabled or enhanced technologies including without limitation, self-improving language and content models, machine learning software and algorithms, training improvement models, image recognition and categorization, and/or other functionalities as applicable. Any results, analyses, or summaries generated by such features may be derived from the reports, images, records, content, and other material that has been furnished by the user.

Artificial intelligence enabled or enhanced mechanisms remain subject to ongoing evolution and refinement. GNYAS remains committed to constantly improving the Site to increase accuracy, reliability, and safety. Artificial intelligence technologies and functionalities remain dynamic in nature, as such, use of the features or Content that include such technologies may provide results or analyses to a user that do not accurately reflect details concerning applicable people, places, or facts. User’s reliance upon any information obtained or used by user from the Site is solely at User’s own risk. GNYAS is not responsible for the accuracy of any information or content provided to or sent by user. User is responsible for verifying the accuracy of any information, data, or records that user sends or receives through the Site.

When you use artificial intelligence enabled or enhanced functions or Content, you acknowledge and agree that:

  1. Any results, outputs, or analyses from such functions may not always be 100% accurate. You should not rely on any such results, outputs, or analyses as a source of truth or 100% factual information, or as a substitute for professional advice or your own judgment.
  2. You must evaluate results, outputs, and analyses for accuracy, appropriateness, and relevancy before using or sharing any results, outputs, and/or analyses that may derive from artificial intelligence enhanced or enabled Website.

GNYAS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY IN RESPECT OF ACTIONS TAKEN OR NOT TAKEN BASED ON ANY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ENABLED OR ENHANCED FUNCTIONS OR THE CONTENTS OF THE RESULTS, OUTPUTS, OR ANALYSES PREPARED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. GNYAS IS NOT ENGAGED IN A COMPREHENSIVE INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE SUBSTANCE OR ADEQUACY OF ANY RESULTS, OUTPUTS, OR ANALYSES THAT MAY BE GENERATED OR DERIVED IN CONNECTION WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ENHANCED OR ENABLED FUNCTIONS OF THE SITE.

12. TERMINATION

GNYAS may, in our sole discretion, terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Site for any reason, including, without limitation, breach, or assignment of these Terms.

13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Site requires that the claim be resolved exclusively by confidential binding arbitration except that, to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate the Content and any intellectual property rights therein, GNYAS may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief. The arbitration shall be conducted before three neutral arbitrators in the State of New York, U.S.A., in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as then in effect. No claims of any other parties may be joined or otherwise combined in the arbitration proceeding. Unless otherwise expressly required by applicable law, each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees without regard to which party is deemed the prevailing party in the arbitration proceeding. Except for punitive and consequential damages (which may not be awarded), and subject to these Terms, the arbitrators shall be authorized to award either party any provisional or equitable remedy permitted by applicable law. The parties shall equally share all AAA charges and fees associated with the arbitration.

BECAUSE THE USE OF THE SITE REQUIRES THE ARBITRATION OF ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES EXISTING BETWEEN THE PARTIES, NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PURSUE THAT CLAIM IN COURT OR BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR ANY OTHER COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATORS’ DECISION WILL BE FINAL AND BINDING. OTHER RIGHTS THAT EITHER PARTY WOULD HAVE IF SUCH PARTY WENT TO COURT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE RIGHT TO CONDUCT DISCOVERY OR TO APPEAL, MAY BE LIMITED OR UNAVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

The award of the arbitrators may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party consents (a) to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, or to any federal court located within the State of New York in New York County for any action (i) to compel arbitration, (ii) to enforce any award of the arbitrators, or (iii) at any time prior to the qualification and appointment of the arbitrators, for temporary, interim, or provisional equitable remedies, and (b) to service of process in any action by registered mail or any other means provided by law. Should this Section 13 be deemed invalid or otherwise unenforceable for any reason, it shall be severed and the parties agree that exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be in the state or federal courts having jurisdiction over the State of New York. Each party waives any objections based on forum non conveniens and waives any objection to venue of any action instituted hereunder to the extent that an action is brought in the courts identified above.

14. MODIFICATIONS OF THESE TERMS

As mentioned above, we may make changes to these Terms from time to time. We will post updates and changes to the Site and the date that these Terms were last revised is identified at the top of the page. You are responsible for ensuring that you periodically visit the Site and these Terms to check for any changes that may impact you, and if you do not accept such amendments, you must cease using the Site. Your continued use of the Site after we have made updates to the Terms is considered your acceptance of those updates. For clarity, all updates are effective immediately when posted.

15. TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS AND CONTENT DISCLAIMER

Although we attempt to ensure the integrity and accurateness of the Site, we make no claim, representation, or warranty as to the accuracy, reliability, or suitability of the information contained within the Site, including, but not limited to, the Content and any other information contained in any text, documents, graphics, and other elements. The Content may contain technical errors, typographical errors, errors made or perpetuated by third parties, or other forms of error.

We undertake no obligation to update any Content on the Site. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to make alterations or deletions to the Content at any time without notice. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to edit or remove any documents, information or other content appearing on the Site at any time without notice.

16. SEVERABILITY AND WAIVER

If a court of competent jurisdiction rules that a provision of these Terms is invalid, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, and the parties agree that the court or arbitrator should give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. No waiver by us of any term or condition set forth herein shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by any visitor using the Site does not constitute a waiver of its right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

17. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms shall be construed and governed under the laws of the United States and State of New York (without regard to rules governing conflicts of laws provisions). You agree that venue for all actions, arising out of or relating in any way to your use of our Site, shall be in federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in New York County, New York, within one (1) year after the claim arises. Each party waives any objections based on forum non conveniens and waives any objection to venue of any action instituted hereunder to the extent that an action is brought in the courts identified above.
