What it is

The agreement authorizes HubSpot to use Customer Data, which includes all information submitted or collected via the Subscription Service, to train HubSpot's AI models, with an opt-out available through account settings.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision requires compliance teams to assess whether the default opt-in posture for AI training data use is consistent with applicable data protection obligations, particularly GDPR lawful basis requirements for EU personal data and CCPA disclosure obligations for California residents. The opt-out mechanism is available but must be actively exercised by the customer.

Interpretive note: The provision does not specify which categories of Customer Data are used for AI training, whether opt-out applies retroactively, or how long training data is retained after opt-out, creating ambiguity for data protection compliance assessments.
