These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of parisai.org and public materials made available by Paris AI™ Organization (“Paris AI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the website, you agree to these Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.
1. Website purpose and acceptance
The website provides research, analysis, organizational information, press releases, and related materials. If you do not agree with these Terms, you should not use the website. Additional terms may apply to specific research collaborations, events, programs, downloads, data, software, or services.
2. Research and informational materials
Research papers, frameworks, commentary, insights, presentations, summaries, and other materials are provided for general research and informational purposes. They may discuss developing technologies, uncertain outcomes, third-party standards, regulation, or future scenarios. They should not be treated as legal, regulatory, financial, investment, cybersecurity, compliance, medical, certification, or other professional advice.
Research reflects the information, assumptions, methods, and evidence available at the time of publication and may be revised as knowledge or circumstances change. References to technologies, organizations, standards, or products do not constitute endorsement unless expressly stated.
3. Permitted and prohibited use
You may access and use the website for lawful informational, research, educational, and professional purposes, subject to these Terms and any notices accompanying particular materials.
You may not use the website to violate law; interfere with security or operation; introduce malicious code; attempt unauthorized access; scrape or overload the website in a manner that materially disrupts service; impersonate Paris AI or another person; misrepresent affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, or research findings; or remove proprietary notices from materials.
4. Intellectual property and trademarks
Unless otherwise indicated, original website text, research, graphics, layouts, frameworks, visual design, and branding are owned by or licensed to Paris AI™ Organization and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. “Paris AI,” “Paris AI™,” related wordmarks, and associated branding may be protected as trademarks or other source identifiers.
Third-party names, trademarks, images, standards, publications, data, and other materials remain the property of their respective owners and may be subject to separate terms. Nothing on the website grants a license to use Paris AI branding in a way that implies affiliation, endorsement, partnership, or sponsorship.
5. Inquiries and submissions
If you submit an inquiry, proposal, comment, or other material through the website, you represent that you have the right to provide it. Do not submit confidential, proprietary, export-controlled, security-sensitive, or legally privileged information through general website forms unless Paris AI has agreed in advance to receive it under appropriate terms.
Submitting an inquiry does not create a partnership, research relationship, advisory relationship, fiduciary duty, or obligation to enter into any agreement.
6. Third-party websites, sources, and embedded services
The website may link to or embed third-party research, media, standards, datasets, services, or websites. Paris AI does not control those third parties and is not responsible for their availability, accuracy, security, or practices. Links are provided for context or convenience and do not necessarily imply endorsement.
7. Availability and disclaimers
The website and public materials are provided on an “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Paris AI makes no guarantee that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current, or suitable for a particular purpose. Research involving frontier and emerging technologies inherently includes uncertainty, and future developments may differ materially from scenarios or expectations discussed.
8. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Paris AI and its contributors, representatives, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or similar losses arising from reliance on website materials or inability to access the website. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
9. Independent status and no government affiliation
Paris AI™ Organization is an independent research organization. The use of “Paris” in the organization’s name identifies its research setting and brand and does not imply affiliation with, endorsement by, or representation of the City of Paris, the French government, the European Union, or any public authority unless expressly stated.
10. Research citations and attribution
Where reasonable and permitted, users referencing Paris AI research should preserve the title, author or organizational attribution, publication date, and source URL so readers can identify the original work. Separate licenses or notices accompanying a publication take precedence over this general provision.
11. Changes to the website or Terms
We may update website content, research materials, or these Terms as the organization and its activities evolve. Updated Terms become effective when posted unless a different effective date is stated.
12. Applicable law
Your use of the website is subject to applicable laws and regulations. These Terms do not override mandatory rights or protections that apply to you under law.
13. Contact
Questions about these Terms may be submitted through the Paris AI contact page.
