CONSOLE SERVICE AGREEMENT
This Console Service Agreement, as amended from time to time (this "Agreement") is between the Company and the Client. This Agreement is effective as of the Order Date (the "Effective Date"). "Company," "Client," and "Order Date" shall have the same meanings provided in the applicable Order (as defined below).
1. Service Overview; Company Role; Disclaimers
1.1 Company operates a large language model aggregator where users may use its website at https://console.gmicloud.ai (the "Site") to access third-party application programming interfaces ("APIs") to use a variety of generative artificial intelligence models ("AI Models", together with "APIs", "Vendor Products") listed on the Site ("Service"). Company may add or remove AI Models from the Service at any time.
1.2 This Agreement provides general terms applicable to Company's provision of the Service, in mutually agreed transactions described in mutually executed order ("Order"). Such Order will be a separate agreement between Company and Client and will be deemed to incorporate the terms of this Agreement by reference. Company may require Client to provide evidence of creditworthiness or credit support reasonably acceptable to Company as a condition to accepting any Order. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the specific terms of the Order, the specific terms of the Order govern with respect to such Order.
1.3 The parties acknowledge and agree that Company acts solely as a technical intermediary that enables Client's access to third-party APIs and AI Models via the Site and provides billing, routing and account management functions in connection with such access, and:

2.2 Client acknowledges that Company does not act as a Controller or Processor of any personal data contained in User Content, and therefore the Company does not determine the purpose or means of processing any personal data as well as any User Content. The Client shall be deemed the Controller of such personal data, and any third-party providers of underlying APIs, AI Models or any other Vendor Products shall be deemed the Processor.
2.3 Company merely provides the Services "as is" and disclaims all warranties, express or implied. Client is solely responsible for moderating, managing, and ensuring compliance of any User Content with applicable laws and regulations. Company shall have no liability for such content.

Client's ownership rights in the Output are set forth in terms for each AI Model used by Client ("AI Model Terms"). Some AI Models may store or train on Client's Inputs for improving their own large language models and may allow Client to opt-out of model training, as described in their AI Model Terms.

By way of example only, this license provides Company permission to (1) log and store Client's Inputs and (2) log, copy, store, and distribute Client's Inputs and associated tokens for purposes of debugging.
3.3 Opt-In License for Chat Logging.
If Client has opted into chat logging in Client's account settings, Client grants Company a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid right and license (with the right to sublicense) to host, store, transfer, display, perform, reproduce, modify for the purpose of formatting for display, adapt, translate and reproduce for debugging, any User Content submitted by Client or produced by Client's use of the chat feature (which includes text, files and/or images), in whole or in part for purposes of providing the Services to Client and for Service maintenance purposes. By way of example only, this license provides Company permission to (1) log and store Client's User Content and (2) log, copy, store, and distribute Client's Inputs and associated tokens for purposes of debugging.
3.4 License to Categorize Inputs.
Company uses a hosted model for categorizing Inputs, which does not store or log any Inputs provided to it.

Unless explicitly opted in to prompt logging, Company does not store Client's Inputs after categorizing them and do not associate the categorized Inputs with any specific user or organizational accounts.
3.5 User Content Representations and Warranties.
Client is solely responsible for any and all obligations with respect to the accuracy, quality, completeness, and legality of User Contents and the consequences of providing or using such User Contents. Client affirms, represents, and warrants that:

Company is under no obligation to edit or control Inputs that Client or other users post or publish, and will not be in any way responsible or liable for Inputs. Company may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any Inputs that in its sole judgment violates this Agreement or is otherwise objectionable or illegal. Client agrees to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy Client has or may have against Company with respect to the Inputs. Company expressly disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. If notified by a user, content owner or AI Model that User Content allegedly does not conform to this Agreement, Company may investigate the allegation and elect to terminate Client's access to the Services, in its discretion. For clarity, Company does not permit copyright-infringing activities on the Service.
3.7 Location of Originating Requests.
Company strives to accurately provide to the AI Models the country of Client's originating request when accessing the Site using APIs. However, due to limitations of currently available technology, it is not always possible to accurately represent Client's country of origin, and this limitation may affect Client's ability to use the Service. Client understands and agrees that Company is not responsible for any incorrect location reporting to the AI Models.
