Summary

This document establishes the terms of service governing user access to AI21 Labs' services, including the Jamba AI model, AI21 Studio API, and related developer tools. The agreement authorizes AI21 Labs to use submitted inputs and generated outputs to operate, maintain, and improve its services, and permits AI21 Labs to suspend or terminate user access without advance notice. The agreement limits AI21 Labs' liability in disputes to the greater of $100 or fees paid by the user in the twelve months preceding the claim.

Technical / Legal Breakdown

This document governs use of AI21 Labs' AI-powered products and services, including Jamba models, APIs, and the AI21 Studio platform, establishing a binding agreement between AI21 Labs Ltd. (an Israeli company) and users or enterprise customers who access services directly or via API. The agreement states that users grant AI21 Labs a broad license to use submitted inputs and outputs to operate, maintain, and improve services, and the terms authorize AI21 Labs to suspend or terminate access at any time for any reason with or without notice. Notable provisions include a limitation of liability capping AI21's total aggregate liability at the greater of $100 or the amounts paid by the user in the twelve months preceding the claim, combined with a broad disclaimer of all implied warranties; the agreement also asserts the right to modify terms unilaterally with continued use constituting acceptance, which is a common but operationally significant practice. The terms engage GDPR and Israeli data protection law given AI21 Labs' Israeli incorporation and EU customer base, and may require evaluation under CCPA for California residents; the EU AI Act is also relevant given that Jamba and related large language models are covered by that regulation's provider obligations. Enterprise customers and API developers face additional contractual exposure through indemnification obligations and usage policy compliance requirements that may require downstream vendor assessment.

What changed AI21 Labs revised its cookie and tracking consent language on April 30, 2026. The updated terms now explicitly state that some cookies cannot be opted out of (first-party strictly necessary cookies), while adding clearer descriptions of how tracking data is used for personalization and advertising. The changes make the opt-out process more prominent and specify which cookie categories are mandatory versus optional.
Why this matters The updated terms make clear that certain cookies required for website functionality (login, settings, session management) cannot be disabled, while other tracking—particularly for targeted advertising—can now be opted out through a dedicated button. The policy now explicitly discloses that collected data may be used for 'personalized web experience' and targeted advertising. You can click the 'Your Opt-Out Rights' button to opt out of data sale and targeted advertising.
