Lawcel Version 2.0 Effective Date: 8 May 2026
This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") applies to all use of the Lawcel platform and related services (the "Services") operated by Lawcel (Vesterbrogade 52a, 3250 Gilleleje, Denmark). It is incorporated into our Terms of Service. Breach of this AUP is breach of the Terms of Service and may result in suspension or termination.
"You" means any person or entity using the Services. Effective 8 May 2026.
You may use the Services to monitor, analyse, and manage the compliance impact of software development changes on your legal documentation. Use must be consistent with your subscription tier and any documented instructions exchanged with Lawcel.
You may not use the Services, or assist anyone else in using them, for any purpose that is unlawful, harmful, or harmful to the integrity of the Services. In particular:
Illegal activity. Violating any law, regulation, sanctions regime, or court order; infringing intellectual-property, trade-secret, or privacy rights; engaging in fraud, deception, or misrepresentation.
Harm to others. Submitting threatening, harassing, defamatory, or discriminatory content; attempting to identify or harass data subjects referenced in processed content; submitting personal data for which you lack a lawful basis.
Security violations. Attempting unauthorised access to the Services or another customer's data; probing for or exploiting vulnerabilities outside an authorised research programme; interfering with availability, integrity, or performance (including denial-of-service); introducing malware or backdoors.
Reverse engineering and scraping. Reverse engineering, decompiling, or disassembling the Services except as permitted by law; extracting data by any means other than the public API; using output to train models that compete with the Services.
Misrepresentation of output. Presenting Lawcel's output — risk scores, flags, suggested changes, generated text, agent responses, audit-trail records — as independent legal advice, a compliance certification, or a guarantee of any regulatory outcome (see Section 4).
Abuse of AI features. Bypassing or circumventing safety measures; prompt-injection or model-extraction attempts; submitting content designed primarily to induce illegal, harmful, or policy-violating output.
Prohibited content. Child sexual abuse material; non-consensual sexual content; content facilitating or glorifying terrorism; live credentials (API keys, private keys, payment-card data) beyond what is incidental to legitimate compliance analysis.
Unauthorised commercial use. Reselling, sublicensing, or otherwise commercially exploiting the Services without a written agreement; providing access to third parties outside your organisation.
Lawcel provides compliance intelligence and triage. Output from the Services is not legal advice, legal certification, or a guarantee of regulatory compliance. Risk scores, flags, classifications, proposed clause changes, and generated legal text support qualified legal review — they don't replace it.
You are responsible for obtaining independent legal review of any material change before it takes effect, confirming that suggestions are accurate for your jurisdiction and facts, and the final publication and application of any document produced through the Services. No lawyer–client relationship is formed by your use of the Services.
You retain ownership of content you submit. You warrant that you have the right to submit it for the processing described in our DPA, that it does not infringe any third party's rights, and that you have given all required notices and obtained all required consents under data-protection laws for any personal data in it.
We use your content only as needed to provide the Services, as set out in the DPA and Privacy Policy.
Don't take any action that materially impairs availability, integrity, or performance for other customers. Honour published API and webhook rate limits, don't submit automated traffic to internal or unadvertised endpoints, don't try to exceed fair-use quotas, and cooperate with us if we tell you your usage is causing instability.
You are responsible for the security of credentials and API keys associated with your organisation, the actions of users you invite (especially admins), promptly revoking access on role change or departure, and keeping your contact and privacy-contact details current so our security and sub-processor change notifications reach you.
Report AUP violations — your own or another party's — to abuse@lawcel.com with enough detail for us to investigate. Good-faith reports won't result in adverse action against the reporter.
Report security vulnerabilities to security@lawcel.com. Please don't publicly disclose an unpatched vulnerability before giving us a reasonable opportunity to remediate.
We apply proportionate enforcement — warning, feature restriction, account suspension, termination, or referral to authorities — depending on severity, intent, and history. For severe violations (security, integrity, illegal activity), we may act immediately without prior notice; we will provide post-action notice and an appeal opportunity where consistent with applicable law.
This AUP does not limit any other remedies available to us under the Main Agreement, at law, or in equity.
We may update this AUP to address new abuse patterns, regulatory developments, or changes to the Services. Material changes are notified to your administrative contact at least 30 days before taking effect, except where a change is needed urgently to address a security or legal risk.
Continued use after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance.
