"You acknowledge that Inputs and Outputs may be used by the Company to train and improve its AI models, algorithms and related technology, products and services (including for labeling, classification, content moderation and model training purposes). As such, you hereby grant to the Company a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid, transferable, sublicensable right and license to use any Inputs and Outputs Made Available by you or otherwise generated in connection with your use of the Services at any point, in connection with the purposes described above.— Excerpt from Runway's Runway Terms of Service
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision engages GDPR Articles 6 (lawful basis), 7 (conditions for consent), 17 (right to erasure), and potentially Article 22 (automated decision-making) in EU/EEA jurisdictions, enforced by relevant national data protection authorities and the European Data Protection Board. Where user Inputs contain personal data, the irrevocable nature of the license creates tension with GDPR's right to withdraw consent and right to erasure. The EU AI Act's data governance provisions for general-purpose AI models (GPAI) may also apply. CCPA Sections 1798.100-1798.199 are engaged regarding consumer rights over personal information used in AI training, enforced by the California Privacy Protection Agency. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High. The irrevocable, perpetual, sublicensable nature of the AI training license over Inputs and Outputs that may contain personal data creates significant GDPR compliance exposure. If consent is the stated lawful basis, GDPR Article 7(3) permits withdrawal of consent, which the irrevocability clause would structurally prevent. If legitimate interests is the stated basis, a documented legitimate interests assessment (LIA) would be required under Article 6(1)(f). 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users face the most significant exposure due to GDPR rights to erasure and consent withdrawal. California residents have CCPA rights to know about and limit use of personal information. UK users are subject to UK GDPR, which mirrors EU GDPR requirements. Enterprise customers whose employees use Runway should evaluate whether employee-generated Inputs constitute personal data subject to employment-related data processing obligations. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams integrating Runway via API should assess whether organizational data submitted as Inputs (including potentially proprietary or confidential content) is subject to this AI training license. The sublicensable nature of the license means Runway may pass training rights to third-party model development partners, which may require evaluation under existing data processing agreements and confidentiality obligations. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should assess whether current consent mechanisms at point of registration adequately disclose the AI training use of Inputs and Outputs with sufficient specificity to satisfy GDPR informed consent standards. Data mapping updates should reflect the AI training use as a processing purpose. For EU operations, a privacy impact assessment (DPIA) may be warranted under GDPR Article 35 given the large-scale processing of potentially personal content for AI model training.
