Roblox
· Roblox Privacy and Cookie Policy
This provision establishes age-gated advertising eligibility thresholds that govern how the platform serves advertisements across its user base, creating distinct operational obligations for ad delivery systems and age verification processes. The provision's restriction of personalized advertising to users 18 and older sets a higher threshold than COPPA's 13-year floor and interacts with both COPPA and emerging state children's digital privacy laws.
These requirements function as gatekeeping mechanisms to establish legal capacity, enforce age restrictions on adult content access, and create documented identity records for regulatory compliance and fraud prevention purposes.
The provision creates a clear delineation between customer-specific data (which remains customer property) and aggregated usage analytics (which constitute Supabase IP).

AWS
· AWS Customer Agreement
This provision establishes a financial ceiling on AWS's recoverable liability that may be significantly lower than actual losses experienced by customers in the event of a service failure, data loss, or other breach. For customers paying relatively modest monthly fees but operating high-value production workloads, the cap could result in a material disproportion between recoverable damages and actual financial impact.

This provision establishes an aggregate liability ceiling that is operationally narrow relative to the transaction values that may be involved in NFT marketplace disputes. Enforceability of this cap may be limited under applicable consumer protection law in EU, UK, and certain U.S. state jurisdictions.
This carve-out means that deletion of your DNA data is not complete erasure — your genetic information may persist in research databases in aggregated form. This has particular significance for users who later change their mind about research participation.
The provision creates a framework establishing developer accountability and human decision-making authority over AI system outputs. It institutionalizes the requirement for human involvement in consequential decisions rather than autonomous AI operation.
This clause allocates operational risk for AI-generated outputs to the user rather than the service provider, establishing that the user's review obligation is a condition of using autonomous features. The disclaimer functions to limit Instacart's liability exposure for malfunctions or unexpected behavior in agentic systems.

Microsoft
· Microsoft Privacy Statement (Legacy)
The provision establishes the operational scope of data collection and use for AI model development and service personalization. It specifies that retention of interaction data occurs as part of normal product improvement processes, which affects how user-generated inputs to AI features are processed and stored.
Users interacting with AI features may not realize that their prompts and AI-generated responses can be collected and used for product improvement, which could include sensitive or confidential content depending on how the feature is used.
Microsoft
· Microsoft Privacy Statement (Legacy)
This provision establishes the operational scope of data collection tied to AI feature use and clarifies Microsoft's authority to repurpose collected data for both product improvement and model training purposes. The provision's significance derives from the breadth of data types collected (prompts, outputs, usage data) and the multiple authorized uses, with user controls limited to specific model training scenarios.
Microsoft
· Microsoft Privacy Statement (Legacy)
The clause establishes the operational scope of data collection and permissible uses for AI feature interactions. It defines what categories of information Microsoft processes and the purposes—service delivery, feature improvement, personalization, and product development—under which that data may be utilized.
This provision establishes the data usage scope for model training operations across LinkedIn and Microsoft systems. The authorization covers both recommendation and feature development as well as generative AI applications, with a specified opt-out mechanism available to users.
