By accessing or using Clauselab (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These Terms form a binding agreement between you (the "User") and the Publisher.
Clauselab is a free, client-side web application that provides a workspace for contract lifecycle management, including a contracts repository, a clause library, a template-based drafter, and an AI-assisted review feature that operates on a Bring Your Own Key basis. The Service is static and runs entirely in the User's browser. The Publisher does not operate a backend, does not host User data, and does not provide technical support beyond what is published on the Service itself.
The Service, the clauses in the library, the templates in the drafter, the AI-generated output, and any other content made available through the Service are provided for general informational and productivity purposes only. They do not constitute legal advice. Nothing you do on the Service creates an attorney-client relationship between you and the Publisher. The Publisher owes you no duty of confidence, care, or professional representation in connection with your use of the Service.
If you require legal advice, you must engage a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction on a separate, formal basis. The Publisher's availability for separate legal engagement is independent of your use of this free Service.
Clause text, template language, and other legal content made available through the Service are general, jurisdictionally neutral or jurisdiction-marked starting points. They are not tailored to your transaction, counterparty, industry, or jurisdiction. The User is solely responsible for:
The AI Review feature is a pass-through utility that uses your own API key to send text directly from your browser to an AI provider you select. By using this feature, you represent and warrant that:
The Publisher is not a party to your relationship with any AI provider and accepts no responsibility for their services, pricing, data handling, availability, or output. All risks and costs associated with the use of any AI provider, including API fees, rate limits, data exposure, and output quality, are borne by the User.
You are solely responsible for:
The Publisher is not a data fiduciary, data controller, data processor, or data protection officer in respect of any data you enter into the Service.
You must not use the Service to:
The Service, including its source code, design, clause library, templates, and brand elements, is owned by the Publisher and is made available free of charge for end-user use. Where the Service is published as open source on a repository hosting platform, it is made available under the licence stated in that repository, and the terms of that licence prevail over this clause to the extent of any conflict in respect of the source code. The Clauselab name, logo, and visual design remain the property of the Publisher and may not be used to suggest endorsement or affiliation without prior written permission.
You retain all rights in the contracts, clauses, notes, and other content you create or enter into the Service. The Publisher claims no right or licence over your content.
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Publisher disclaims all warranties, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, security, or absence of errors or defects. The Publisher does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with your device, or free from loss of data.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Publisher be liable to the User or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of data, or loss of goodwill, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, arising out of or in connection with the use of or inability to use the Service, the content made available through the Service, or the output of any AI provider invoked through the Service, even if the Publisher has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the aggregate liability of the Publisher to any User arising out of or in connection with the Service shall not exceed INR 1,000 (Indian Rupees one thousand only), which the User acknowledges is a fair and reasonable limit given that the Service is provided free of charge.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or fraud.
The User shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Publisher from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) the User's use of the Service; (b) the User's breach of these Terms; (c) the User's violation of any applicable law or third-party right; or (d) any content the User enters into, or output the User acts on through, the Service.
The Publisher may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, without notice. The Publisher may amend these Terms from time to time. The current version is always available at this URL, and material changes will be reflected by a revised "Effective date". Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India. The courts at Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any such dispute or claim.
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall continue in full force. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Publisher in relation to your use of the Service.
