If your use of AI21's services causes a legal claim against AI21, you have to pay their legal costs and any damages — not just your own.
If you misuse AI21's services — even accidentally — and a third party sues AI21 as a result, you are contractually obligated to cover AI21's legal fees and any resulting damages, which could far exceed what you paid for the service.

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Indemnification clauses are governed by state contract law. In EU consumer contracts, broad indemnification clauses may be unenforceable as unfair terms under Directive 93/13/EEC. UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 similarly restricts indemnification obligations imposed on consumers. For B2B contracts, such clauses are generally enforceable but subject to reasonableness requirements in some jurisdictions (UK Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977). (2)
