Enterprise customers are indemnified by OpenAI for intellectual property infringement claims arising from Output, reducing their legal and financial exposure from third-party rights holders.
Interpretive note: The excerpt does not specify whether 'claims' means only third-party claims or includes other claim types; the API clause (64336) uses 'any third party claim' explicitly, while this Enterprise clause uses 'claims' without that qualifier. Confidence remains high as the difference is minor and the excerpt is otherwise clear.
The updated terms establish new licensing provisions for customers who download and install software components (Licensed Materials) on their own systems. Under the revised terms, OpenAI grants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Licensed Materials solely in connection with the Services, but customers may not modify, redistribute, or sublicense the materials. Upon termination of service, customers must permanently delete the Licensed Materials. Additionally, OpenAI introduced a new ChatGPT Sites feature for creating and publishing websites, with use governed by separate ChatGPT Sites Terms. You can review the ChatGPT Sites Terms via the referenced link to understand specific conditions for website creation and maintenance.
