MULTIPLICITAS COMMERCIAL TERMS OF SERVICE
Effective Date: April 18, 2024.
Welcome to Multiplicitas! Before accessing our Services, please read these Commercial Terms of Service carefully.
These Commercial Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between Multiplicitas ("Multiplicitas," "we," "us," or "our") and you or the organization, company, or other entity that you represent ("Customer" or "you"). They govern Customer's use of Multiplicitas' bespoke AI solutions, including our AI models, APIs, associated software applications, and any other offerings that reference these Terms (collectively, the "Services"). These Terms are effective on the earlier of the date that Customer first electronically consents to a version of these Terms and the date that Customer first accesses the Services ("Effective Date").
Please note: You may not enter into these Terms on behalf of an organization, company, or other entity unless you have the legal authority to bind that entity. Services under these Terms are not for consumer use.
Section 1: Services
1.1 Overview
Subject to these Terms, Customer may use the Services, including making submissions to the Services ("Prompts") and generating responses to its Prompts ("Outputs" and, together with Prompts, "Customer Content").
1.2 Beta Services
Multiplicitas may offer Services that are in pre-release, beta, or trial form ("Beta Services"). Beta Services are provided "as-is" and may not be suitable for production use. Multiplicitas is not responsible for Customer's use of or reliance on Beta Services.
1.3 Feedback
If Customer decides, in its sole discretion, to provide Multiplicitas with feedback regarding the Services, Multiplicitas may use that feedback without obligation to Customer.
1.4 Customer Content
As between the Parties and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Multiplicitas agrees that Customer owns all Outputs, and disclaims any rights it receives to the Customer Content under these Terms. Subject to Customer's compliance with these Terms, Multiplicitas hereby assigns to Customer its right, title, and interest (if any) in and to Outputs. Multiplicitas will not train models on Customer Content from paid Services without Customer's explicit consent.
Section 2; Prompts, Outputs, and Materials
2.1 Definitions
You may submit text, documents, or other materials to our Services for processing ("Prompts"). Our Services may generate responses based on your Prompts ("Outputs"). Prompts and Outputs are collectively referred to as "Materials."
2.2 Personal Information
You acknowledge that our Private Policy governs our use and processing of any personal information you submit to us in connection with your use of the Services, whether as part of your Prompts or otherwise.
2.3 Rights to Materials
You are responsible for all Prompts you submit to our Services. By submitting Prompts, you represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions for us to process the Prompts under these Terms. You also represent and warrant that your Prompts will not violate these Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, or any applicable laws or regulations.
As between you and Multiplicitas, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you retain any right, title, and interest in the Prompts you submit. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Multiplicitas assigns to you all of its right, title, and interest (if any) in Outputs generated based on your Prompts.
2.4 Use of Materials
Multiplicitas may use Materials to provide, maintain, improve, and develop the Services and other products or services. Multiplicitas may not train models on Materials submitted by paid customers.
2.5 Reliance on Outputs
Multiplicitas' Services utilize advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, which are continually evolving to improve accuracy, reliability, and safety. When using our Services, you acknowledge and agree that:
a. Outputs may not always be accurate and may contain material inaccuracies, even if they appear accurate due to their level of detail or specificity;
b. You should not rely on any Outputs without independently confirming their accuracy;
c. The Services and Outputs may not reflect correct, current, or complete information; and
d. Outputs may contain content that is inconsistent with Multiplicitas' views.
Section 3: Bespoke AI Agents
3.1 Customized AI Agents
Multiplicitas may offer customized versions of its AI agents ("Customized AI Agents") created based on instructions, queries, data, and information provided by third parties ("Third-Party AI Agents"). Multiplicitas may also offer customized versions of its AI agents created by Multiplicitas itself.
Unless a Customized AI Agent is expressly identified as a Multiplicitas product, such Customized AI Agent may be created by a third party and incorporate third-party content, instructions, or data that are not controlled by or owned by Multiplicitas. Information about the creator of a Customized AI Agent can be found beneath the name of each Customized AI Agent.
Third-Party AI Agents created by other users may be shared with you. You should only open and use Third-Party AI Agents from sources you trust. You are solely responsible for your interactions with Third-Party AI Agents that may be independently developed by third parties unaffiliated with Multiplicitas. Your use of Third-Party AI Agents may expose you to content that you find offensive, inappropriate, or objectionable.
If you encounter a Third-Party AI Agent or content generated by a Third-Party AI Agent that violates these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, please submit a report using the "Report an Issue" form. Third-Party AI Agents may contain advertisements. Multiplicitas may remove, suspend, or disable access to Third-Party AI Agents at any time without prior notice, and users may withdraw or delete their Third-Party AI Agents at any time without prior notice.
3.2 Customized AI Agent Generator
Subscribers of certain Multiplicitas services may have the ability to create Customized AI Agents using the Customized AI Agent Generator feature. All information (including the name and description of the AI Agent), instructions, knowledge, documents, and data you provide to create a Customized AI Agent must comply with the Acceptable Use Policy and must not infringe, facilitate, or promote the infringement of any third-party rights (including intellectual property rights, trademark rights, and publicity rights) or any illegal or harmful activities.
You may not suggest that Multiplicitas, any of its affiliates, or associated third parties have created, endorsed, or approved your Customized AI Agent. You may not make misleading or false statements about the development, approval, affiliation, or creation of a Customized AI Agent. You may not create Customized AI Agents primarily intended for or designed to primarily attract minors. You are responsible for ensuring that your Customized AI Agent complies with these Terms and the Acceptable Use Policy.
Multiplicitas, at its sole discretion, may review, suspend, block publication, limit access to, remove, or terminate access to the AI Agents you create at any time and without prior notice if you violate these Terms (including the Acceptable Use Policy), if we suspect you are engaging in fraudulent or illegal activities, or if you or we suspend or close your Multiplicitas account. You may appeal these decisions as set forth in the "User Access Restriction and Appeal" section of these Terms.
Customized AI Agents may contain third-party advertisements. You will not be remunerated or entitled to any compensation for these advertisements that may appear in Customized AI Agents.
3.3 Sharing Customized AI Agents
You may not share your Customized AI Agents with any third parties without Multiplicitas' prior written consent. If Multiplicitas grants you permission to share your Customized AI Agent, the name associated with your Multiplicitas account, as well as any personal or confidential data or other information, data, or documents you upload or enter into your AI Agent, may be made available or shared with the authorized recipients of your AI Agent link, Multiplicitas affiliates, or external partners, as permitted by Multiplicitas.
