What it is

Customers with agreements predating February 15, 2024, or whose order forms explicitly reference the AI Terms of Use, are governed by separate AI-specific terms. All other customers have their AI tool usage governed by the base Terms of Service.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision creates two distinct legal frameworks governing AI tool usage depending on agreement execution date, which means enterprise customers may be operating under materially different AI-related obligations, rights, and limitations depending solely on when their agreement was signed.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, the specific terms governing a customer's use of Sourcegraph AI tools depend on whether the agreement predates February 15, 2024. Customers in the pre-2024 cohort are subject to a separate AI Terms of Use document rather than the base Terms of Service provisions on AI tools.
