This provision establishes the operational framework for data transfers to external parties who support Cohere's service delivery and business functions. The authorization encompasses both service providers operating under contractual confidentiality obligations and business partners with whom Cohere co-markets or co-develops offerings.
Interpretive note: The specific list of third-party vendors and the precise scope of sharing for marketing purposes is not disclosed in the public policy text, creating interpretive uncertainty about the full extent of third-party data flows.
The updated policy removes explicit language describing data retention timelines and deletion request procedures that were previously available. The prior policy stated that Enterprise Users' inputs and outputs were retained for 30 days, that Trial Users and Researchers were not intended to process personal information, and that deletion requests would normally be responded to within one month (up to three months for complex requests). The updated policy now contains only a general reference to 'retention practices' without specifying these timelines, response windows, or user-type distinctions. Users cannot determine from the updated policy what retention periods apply to their account category or what timeline to expect for deletion requests.
