ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

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

This provision establishes that the default position is no use of user content for AI training, which is a contractually explicit opt-in framework rather than a passive opt-out arrangement.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

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

Under this provision, users' code inputs and AI-generated suggestions are not used to train AI models by default; users who have not explicitly consented retain this protection and can verify or manage their consent status within the Service settings.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Opt Out of Arbitration
