No right is granted to resell, lease, sublicense, white-label or make the Service itself available to a third party unless expressly permitted in an applicable order or Additional Agreement.
  6. Added: You acknowledge that you are interacting with an AI system. AI systems rely on probabilistic and statistical models, which may, from time to time, produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading information.
