What it is

These terms only cover Groq's public websites, not its AI tools. If you use GroqChat, Groq Playground, or GroqCloud, a completely different agreement applies.

This analysis describes what Groq's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Users who primarily interact with Groq through its AI services are governed by a separate agreement that may have materially different terms around data use, liability, and rights.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

This carve-out means that reading only these Terms of Use gives users an incomplete picture of their rights and obligations when using Groq's core AI products, requiring a separate review of the Groq Services Agreement.
