"If Customer is a Media Customer, Customer is not authorized to use the verified news feature, such as the AFP news feature, in the Mistral AI Products for editorial use. Any use by Customer of such news feature may be automatically blocked in Mistral AI's sole discretion and without refund. If Customer is a Media Customer and wishes to use the news feature for editorial purposes, Customer must contact Mistral AI at legal@mistral.ai. Any unauthorized use of the news feature by a Media Customer will result in the immediate suspension of such Media Customer's account.— Excerpt from Mistral AI's Mistral AI Additional Product Terms
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision implicates copyright and intellectual property frameworks governing licensed news content, including agreements between Mistral AI and news agencies such as AFP. The restriction may engage EU copyright law and the EU Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market. The automatic suspension mechanism without refund may require evaluation under applicable consumer protection and contract law in relevant jurisdictions. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High for media organizations. The broad definition of Media Customer, which includes entities for which editorial dissemination is only part of their business, means that organizations may not self-identify as Media Customers and could inadvertently trigger the restriction. The automatic account suspension without refund and without advance notice creates material operational and financial risk. JURISDICTION FLAGS: The restriction applies globally to any Media Customer, but the underlying licensing arrangements may have specific territorial scope. EU media organizations should evaluate this provision under applicable copyright and service contract law. Organizations operating across multiple jurisdictions with editorial functions should assess whether any business unit qualifies as a Media Customer under the document's broad definition. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams at organizations with any editorial function should flag this provision during vendor onboarding and obtain written clarification from Mistral AI at legal@mistral.ai before using news features. The automatic suspension without refund is a material risk that should be disclosed to business units relying on Mistral AI for editorial workflows. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should assess whether their organization meets the Media Customer definition and seek pre-authorization if any editorial use of news features is contemplated. Internal acceptable use policies should be updated to reflect this restriction. Organizations should document their pre-authorization requests and Mistral AI's responses as evidence of compliance.
