This provision grants AI21 a license that cannot be revoked and has no expiration date, covering any content submitted to the website and extending to sublicensees through multiple tiers. The moral rights waiver may be unenforceable in jurisdictions where moral rights cannot be contractually waived, such as certain EU member states.
Interpretive note: The enforceability of the moral rights waiver varies by jurisdiction; in certain EU member states, moral rights cannot be contractually waived regardless of agreement terms.
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.
