ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a broad license that covers both user-uploaded content and AI-generated outputs, and extends to sublicensing to third parties for syndication, distribution, and promotional purposes. The scope of permitted uses, including AI model improvement, engages data protection and intellectual property considerations across multiple jurisdictions.

Interpretive note: The precise scope of AI training uses and third-party syndication rights is not exhaustively defined in the provision; the extent of sublicensing to unspecified third parties introduces operational ambiguity.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, content submitted to or generated on the Leonardo AI platform is subject to a worldwide license that permits Leonardo AI to reproduce, modify, distribute, and sublicense that content to third parties for promotional and syndication purposes. The agreement does not specify a documented opt-out mechanism for AI training uses of submitted content.
