This clause establishes the operational framework under which the company may access and share user-generated content with law enforcement and other third parties. It creates four distinct categories of authorized disclosure: legal compliance, Terms enforcement, third-party rights protection, and safety/property protection, each with its own triggering conditions.
Users should understand that their chats are not confidential and may be reviewed by Character.AI staff, shared with third parties, or turned over to law enforcement. The Terms also reserve the right to share report information with the user whose content was reported.
