If Tabnine gets sued or incurs costs because of something you did with their service — including using AI-generated code that infringes someone's copyright — you are responsible for paying their legal bills.
This analysis describes what Tabnine's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The indemnification obligation establishes that users assume financial and legal responsibility for defending Tabnine against third-party claims connected to their use of the platform. This allocation of risk means Tabnine is relieved from bearing defense costs and liability exposure in specified circumstances.
You could be personally responsible for Tabnine's legal costs if you inadvertently use their AI-generated code in a way that infringes a third party's copyright or privacy rights — a real risk given ongoing uncertainty about AI-generated code and copyright law.

"You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Tabnine and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to or use of the Services; (ii) your violation of these Terms; or (iii) your violation of any third party rights, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy rights.— Excerpt from Tabnine's Tabnine Terms of Use
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Broad indemnification clauses in consumer contracts are subject to unconscionability challenges under UCC § 2-302 and common law contract principles. In the EU, the Unfair Contract Terms Directive (93/13/EEC) may render such one-sided indemnification obligations unenforceable against consumers. The particular risk of indemnification for third-party copyright claims arising from AI-generated code engages copyright law (17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.) and the growing body of AI copyright litigation.
