What it is

All disputes arising from this agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Israel and must be resolved exclusively in the courts of Tel Aviv-Jaffa, with users waiving any objection to that venue. AI21 retains the right to seek equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

This analysis describes what AI21 Labs's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision requires users outside Israel to litigate disputes in Tel Aviv-Jaffa courts under Israeli law, which may present practical barriers to legal action for international users. The asymmetric carve-out permitting AI21 to seek equitable relief in any jurisdiction is one-sided in favor of AI21.

Interpretive note: Enforceability of the exclusive Israeli jurisdiction clause against consumers in the EU, UK, and certain U.S. states depends on applicable mandatory consumer protection laws in those jurisdictions.

The updated terms remove the explicit "Your Opt-Out Rights" button that previously allowed users to opt out of data sales and targeted advertising. In its place, the revised language establishes a general cookie consent framework requiring users to click "Accept" to allow cookies for site navigation, usage analysis, and marketing efforts. Users retain the ability to choose not to allow certain cookie types, but the prior dedicated opt-out mechanism for data sales and targeted advertising is no longer explicitly described in the accessible terms interface. If you wish to control cookie preferences, you can click on the cookie settings to modify consent for different types of cookies; however, strictly necessary cookies cannot be declined as they are required for core website functionality.
