Summary
Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

These terms govern how you and AWS Bedrock can use AWS services and what each side is responsible for. AWS Bedrock will defend you if a third party claims that AI-generated output infringed their intellectual property, and that protection is not capped by the Agreement's damages limits. However, you are fully responsible for giving privacy notices and obtaining consents before personal data is processed, you cannot cancel certain reserved pricing commitments once made, and you must not use the services to mine cryptocurrency or allow your end users to do so.

Analysis

The AWS Service Terms establish the substantive obligations, rights, and limitations governing customer use of AWS Bedrock and related AWS services. On data handling, AWS Bedrock personnel are barred from accessing customer Content on AWS Nitro System EC2 instances, and AWS Bedrock commits not to use Individualized Usage Data or customer Content to compete with customers, while retaining the right to use and store AI Content processed by listed AI Services for service development and improvement. The document places responsibility for legally adequate privacy notices and all necessary consents entirely on the customer, and conditions the application of Standard Contractual Clauses on both GDPR applicability and a transfer of Customer Data outside the EEA. AWS Bedrock provides an IP indemnification defense for customers against third-party claims arising from Generative AI Output produced by Indemnified Generative AI Services, with that defense and payment obligation explicitly carved out from the Agreement's damages cap. Additional provisions establish a 2-business-day window for customers to remediate Prohibited Content before AWS Bedrock may act unilaterally, impose joint and several liability across Management and Member Accounts in an Organization, prohibit safety-critical use of AWS IoT Services and customer facilitation of cryptocurrency mining, and render Savings Plans and certain EC2 reserved instruments noncancellable and nonrefundable for their full term.

What this means for you

As a customer, your Content on AWS Nitro System EC2 instances is inaccessible to AWS Bedrock personnel, and AWS Bedrock will not use your Individualized Usage Data or Content to compete with your products or services. However, if you use any listed AI Services, your AI Content processed by those services may be used by AWS Bedrock to develop and improve those services and their underlying technologies. You bear full responsibility for providing legally adequate privacy notices and obtaining all necessary consents before personal data is processed through the services — if you use AWS services to process personal data on behalf of others, you should ensure those notices and consents are in place before processing begins.

What changed AWS Bedrock updated its Service Terms to add AWS Elemental Inference to the list of Indemnified Generative AI Services and removed specific restrictions on the Amazon Mechanical Turk workforce option for Amazon Augmented AI. The terms also reorganized section numbering in the SageMaker AI section. These changes expand the scope of services covered under AWS's generative AI indemnification and simplify workforce data handling requirements.
Why this matters The updated terms expand the list of generative AI services covered under AWS's indemnification framework to include AWS Elemental Inference, meaning AWS will defend customers against third-party claims that the output of this service infringes intellectual property rights. The terms also remove the prior restriction on using Amazon Mechanical Turk workforce for Amazon Augmented AI data labeling, simplifying the compliance requirements for that workflow. These changes do not materially alter customer obligations or data handling practices.
