Terms of Service

By creating or using an account on the Bells Up AI platform (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your data. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

The Service is currently in an invitation-only period. During the initial invitation-only period, the following terms apply.

Free Access

Use of the Service during the invitation-only beta period is provided at no cost to you. In exchange, we ask that you provide us with feedback to help improve the platform.

Usage Quotas

Beta users are subject to usage quotas. We reserve the right to adjust usage levels during the beta period depending on demand and other factors, in our sole discretion.

No Availability Guarantees

We make no guarantees of availability or access during the beta period. The Service may be interrupted for maintenance, updates, or other reasons, with or without prior notice. We will make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption and provide advance notice of downtime.

Service and Provider Changes

During the beta, features may be added, modified, or removed without prior notice. We may add or remove AI model providers, change the underlying Service infrastructure, or modify other aspects of the Service as we continue development.

Beta Termination

Bells Up AI reserves the right to end the beta program at any time. If we end the beta program, your account data, including any saved conversations, will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy data retention schedule. We will provide reasonable notice regarding the end of the beta program.

Inactivity

We may delete beta accounts and associated data after 30 days of inactivity. We are not obligated to store encrypted conversation data indefinitely for inactive accounts.

Transition to Post-Beta

When we transition to our post-beta release, we will provide beta users with email notification of the transition, including any changes to terms, pricing, and service levels. Your continued use of the Service after the transition will be subject to the then-current terms.

Beta Feedback

Feedback you provide during the beta is assigned to Bells Up AI, Inc. You grant Bells Up AI all rights, title, and interest in feedback for the purpose of improving the Service. This assignment does not extend to any confidential client information, privileged communications, or the content of your AI conversations that may be inadvertently included in feedback.

Privacy is central to how we built this platform. The following commitments are described in detail in our Privacy Policy and are summarized here for convenience.

No Model Training

Your conversations are never used to train AI models. All AI providers are accessed under API agreements that specifically prohibit them from using your data to train their models. We do not use your conversations to train our own models either.

No Storage Unless You Save

Conversation content is not stored on our servers unless you turn on the Save Conversation toggle. Unsaved conversations exist only in your browser session. We do not retain transient copies necessary for transmission and processing.

Encryption

Saved conversations are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM encryption. Each conversation has its own encryption key, managed through AWS Key Management Service. Decryption keys exist only in memory during an active request and are never written to disk.

No Content Logging

Our application logs never contain your message content, AI responses, or conversation titles.

Organization Administrator Visibility

If your account is part of an organization, your organization’s administrator may view usage metadata (such as which AI models you used and approximate conversation length). Organization administrators cannot access the content of your conversations under any circumstances.

Usage Metadata

We collect and store request metadata for rate limiting, abuse detection, and security: your IP address, timestamps, which AI model was used, response latency, and token counts (a measure of input and output length, but not the actual text of your prompt or the AI response). Metadata is retained for 90 days under normal circumstances.

Authorized Users

The Service is intended for use by licensed attorneys, legal professionals, and their authorized staff. Access to the beta is by invitation only. If you grant access to staff members within your organization, you are responsible for ensuring their use complies with these Terms and with your own professional obligations.

Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at security@bellsup.ai if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account.

HIPAA and Protected Health Information

Bells Up AI is not currently certified as a HIPAA-compliant platform. We do not offer Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with users, and we have not entered into BAAs with our AI providers or infrastructure partners for HIPAA-compliant processing.

If you are subject to HIPAA — for example, if you or your firm serve as a Business Associate of a HIPAA-covered entity, or if you work for a HIPAA-covered entity — then you are responsible for determining whether your use of the Service is consistent with your HIPAA obligations. If you are subject to these requirements, you should not use the Service to process Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined under HIPAA, if doing so would violate HIPAA’s requirements. Use of the Service for purposes that do not involve the transmission or processing of PHI is not restricted by this section.

Nothing in this section restricts the use of health-related or medical information by users who are not subject to HIPAA. For instance, generally, attorneys who obtain medical records through client authorization or discovery, and who are not acting as Business Associates of covered entities, are not subject to HIPAA’s restrictions on the use of PHI. All user content remains subject to the confidentiality protections described in our Privacy Policy, regardless of content type.

Export Controls

You represent that you are not located in a jurisdiction subject to U.S. embargo (including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of Ukraine) and that you are not listed on any U.S. government restricted-party list, including the Treasury Department’s Specially Designated Nationals list and the Commerce Department’s Entity List. You agree not to use the Service in violation of U.S. export control laws, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

The following uses of the Service are specifically prohibited:

• Use in connection with the development, operation, or facilitation of weapons systems, surveillance systems, or other activities that endanger public safety
• Generation of child sexual abuse material or any content that sexually exploits minors
• Phishing, fraud, social engineering, or any form of cybercrime
• Generation of content intended to harass, threaten, or incite violence
• Attempting to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service or its infrastructure
• Reverse engineering, decompiling, or disassembling any part of the Service
• Attempting to extract system prompts, bypass security controls, or probe other users’ data
• Sharing account credentials or allowing unauthorized persons to access your account
• Transmitting malicious code, spam, or harmful content
• Interfering with or disrupting the integrity or performance of the Service
• Using automated tools to scrape, crawl, or extract data from the Service
• Uploading or transmitting data you do not have the right to use

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate beta access immediately for any reason, including but not limited to an account’s prompts being flagged as a violation of the acceptable use policies of one of our underlying AI providers.

Bells Up AI provides access to multiple AI model families through a unified interface. When you send a message, your prompt is transmitted to the AI provider you have selected to generate a response.

No Training on Your Data

Every AI provider we offer is accessed under API agreements that prohibit the provider from using your inputs or outputs to train or improve their models. Providers accessed through AWS Bedrock (including Anthropic, Meta, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Qwen) are processed under the AWS Data Processing Addendum. Direct API providers (OpenAI, Google, xAI) each operate under separate API agreements with the same prohibition.

Provider Terms

Each provider’s own terms and data practices apply to their processing of your requests. The in-app privacy panel reflects each provider’s current data handling commitments. We monitor provider terms on an ongoing basis, and we encourage you to review the privacy panel before including highly sensitive information in a prompt.

AI Output

AI-generated responses are provided for your use as a professional tool. AI models can produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading output. You are responsible for reviewing, verifying, and validating all AI output before relying on it in any professional capacity.

7.1 Our Property.

The Service, including its software, design, and documentation, is the property of Bells Up AI, Inc. and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to Bells Up AI’s trademarks, logos, or brand features.

7.2 Your Content.

You retain all rights, title, and interest in the content you submit to the Service (“Input”), including any prompts, documents, or other materials. We do not claim any ownership interest in your Input.

As between you and Bells Up AI, you own all output generated by the Service in response to your Input (“Output”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. We do not claim any ownership interest in Output, and we hereby assign to you any right, title, or interest we may hold in Output generated through your use of the Service.

7.3 Underlying Provider Rights.

The Service routes your requests to AI models operated by third-party providers, including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI, Meta, and others (“AI Providers”). Each AI Provider’s terms of service assign or disclaim ownership of output in your favor. Specifically:

• Anthropic (Claude models, accessed via Amazon Bedrock): Anthropic agrees that customer owns all Outputs, disclaims any rights it receives to customer content, and assigns to customer its right, title, and interest (if any) in and to Outputs. Anthropic may not train models on customer content. — Anthropic on Bedrock — Commercial Terms of Service, §B (Customer Content), available at https://aws.amazon.com/legal/bedrock/third-party-models/.
• OpenAI (GPT models): “As between you and OpenAI, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you (a) retain all ownership rights in Input and (b) own all Output. We hereby assign to you all our right, title, and interest, if any, in and to Output.” — OpenAI Business Terms, §3.1 (Customer Content).
• Google (Gemini models): “Google won’t claim ownership over [generated] content.” — Gemini API Additional Terms of Service. Google’s API Terms of Service further provide that “Google does not acquire any ownership of any intellectual property rights in the content that you submit to our APIs.” — Google APIs Terms of Service.
• xAI (Grok models, accessed via API): Customer owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Output in perpetuity, and xAI assigns to customer all of its right, title, and interest in and to such Output (excluding xAI’s underlying technology). — xAI Enterprise Terms of Service, available at https://x.ai/legal/terms-of-service-enterprise.
• Open-source and AWS-distributed models accessed via Amazon Bedrock (including Meta Llama, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Qwen): These models are governed by their respective open-source or community licenses and the Amazon Bedrock Third-Party Model Terms, which do not restrict ownership of output generated through their use. AWS confirms that with Bedrock, “your content is not used to improve the base models and is not shared with any model providers.” — Amazon Bedrock FAQ.

We provide links to each AI Provider’s current terms of service on our in-app Privacy pages. AI Provider terms may change; we will update these references periodically and notify you of material changes that affect your rights.

7.4 Important Limitations.

(a) No guarantee of uniqueness. Due to the nature of AI, other users may receive output that is similar or identical to yours. Your ownership rights in Output do not extend to output independently generated for other users.

(b) Copyright status of AI-generated content. The legal status of copyright protection for AI-generated content remains unsettled. While all AI Providers contractually assign or disclaim rights in your favor, courts in some jurisdictions have held that purely AI-generated content may not qualify for copyright protection absent sufficient human creative contribution. Bells Up AI makes no representation regarding the copyrightability or enforceability of Output under applicable intellectual property law.

As-Is Service

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

No Warranty on AI Output

We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of any AI-generated output. AI models can hallucinate, produce errors, and generate content that is factually incorrect or legally unsound. You are solely responsible for evaluating whether any particular Output is accurate, complete, and appropriate for your use case, including whether human review is warranted. AI can make mistakes, and in particular AI, such as the ones available through the Service, may confidently cite facts and case law that do not exist. Output should not be relied upon as legal advice or as a substitute for independent professional judgment.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Bells Up AI, Inc. shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, or business opportunities, whether incurred directly or indirectly, arising from your use of the Service.

During the beta period, the Service is provided at no cost. Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service during the beta period shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).

After the beta period, our total aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid to Bells Up AI in the twelve months preceding the claim.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bells Up AI, Inc. and its successors, officers, employees, or agents, from any third-party claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to: (a) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms; (b) your violation of applicable law in connection with your use of the Service; or (c) your infringement of any third-party intellectual property, privacy, or other rights through your use of the Service.

Bells Up will promptly notify you in writing of any claim subject to indemnification and provide reasonable cooperation at your expense. You will have sole control of the defense and settlement of any such claim, provided that you may not settle any claim in a manner that imposes obligations on Bells Up AI, Inc., its successors, officers, employees, or agents, without prior written consent.

Your use of the Service does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Bells Up AI or any of our employees. Nothing in these Terms or in the Service constitutes legal advice.

Attorneys are responsible for their own compliance with applicable professional responsibility rules, including but not limited to rules regarding client confidentiality, supervision of AI-assisted work product, and disclosure obligations. We do not — and our architecture is designed so that we cannot — monitor your use of the Service for compliance with professional responsibility rules. That obligation remains solely yours.

We encourage you to review relevant ethics opinions in your jurisdiction regarding AI tools in legal practice before using the Service with confidential or privileged information.

You are the best judge of what your professional obligations require before transmitting privileged information to any third-party service. Our architecture is designed to minimize data exposure — but that judgment is yours to make.

Either party may terminate this agreement at any time. You may stop using the Service and request deletion of your account by contacting security@bellsup.ai.

Bells Up AI reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms. We will make reasonable efforts to provide notice before termination, except where immediate action is necessary to protect the Service or other users.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Any saved conversation data associated with your account will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy data retention schedule. Account data is deleted within 30 days of account closure.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the version number and effective date at the top of this document and notify active users by email. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Bells Up AI, Inc. regarding your use of the Service and supersede all prior communications and agreements, whether oral or written.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under them without the prior written consent of Bells Up AI. Bells Up AI may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of substantially all of its assets.

Waiver

The failure of Bells Up AI to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision or any other provision in the future.

Notices

Notices to you will be sent to the email address associated with your account and are effective upon sending. Notices to Bells Up AI should be sent to security@bellsup.ai.
