Terms of Use

These Terms of Use explain the conditions under which authorized Client Institutions and Authorized Users may access and use the AI Credit Analyst platform.

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the AI Credit Analyst website, portal, forms, workflows, AI-assisted analysis, report-generation services, and related platform features. By accessing or using the platform, the Client Institution and each Authorized User agree to these Terms and any applicable service agreement, order form, pricing arrangement, data processing terms, privacy policy, AI Governance Policy, Disclaimer, and related written agreement.

If these Terms conflict with a signed subscription or service agreement, the signed agreement will control to the extent of the conflict.

2. Authorized institutional use only

The platform is intended only for approved institutional users, including credit unions, banks, lending institutions, mortgage providers, and other organizations approved by us. The platform is not intended for public consumer use or unauthorized access.

Each Client Institution is responsible for determining which officers, employees, agents, or representatives may access the platform and for ensuring that each Authorized User complies with these Terms, institutional policies, borrower confidentiality obligations, and applicable law.

3. Nature of the service

AI Credit Analyst provides AI-assisted credit analysis, structured credit reasoning, credit-risk identification, affordability analysis, and report-generation support. The platform is a decision-support tool. It is not a lender, credit bureau, debt collection agency, legal adviser, financial regulator, or final credit decision-maker.

The platform does not approve, decline, or automatically decide credit applications. Final decisions remain with the Client Institution and its officers, supervisors, credit committees, boards, or other authorized decision-makers.

4. Client Institution responsibilities

The Client Institution is responsible for:

  • ensuring that it has obtained all borrower consents, notices, lawful bases, authorizations, and institutional approvals required to submit borrower/application information and uploaded credit bureau reports to the platform;
  • using the platform only for legitimate credit assessment, loan review, internal credit governance, audit, portfolio review, or related lawful institutional purposes;
  • submitting accurate, complete, current, relevant, and lawfully obtained information;
  • reviewing all generated reports before relying on or circulating them;
  • ensuring that final lending decisions comply with the institution’s lending policies, underwriting standards, regulatory obligations, borrower communication requirements, and credit committee procedures;
  • maintaining appropriate internal controls, staff training, and confidentiality procedures for downloaded reports and platform outputs;
  • promptly notifying us of unauthorized access, data errors, security incidents, or suspected misuse;
  • promptly notifying us in writing when an Authorized User leaves the Client Institution, transfers to a role that no longer requires access, requires temporary suspension, is suspected of account compromise, or otherwise ceases to be authorized to use the platform;
  • ensuring that borrower/application information, uploaded credit bureau reports, and related credit information are submitted in compliance with the terms, restrictions, permissions, and conditions of any applicable credit bureau, data provider, or third-party information source;
  • ensuring that its internal policies, borrower consents, regulatory obligations, and contractual arrangements permit the use of the platform, including any processing, routing, storage, analysis, report generation, email delivery, cloud processing, or third-party subprocessor involvement described in these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the AI Governance Policy, the Disclaimer, or any applicable agreement.

5. Authorized User account security and access authorization

Authorized Users must keep login credentials confidential, use multi-factor authentication where required, avoid sharing accounts, access the platform only through approved devices and networks where reasonably practicable, and immediately report suspected unauthorized access or compromise.

Each account is assigned to the individual Authorized User for whom it was created. An Authorized User must not:

  • share credentials with another officer or person;
  • transfer an account to another officer;
  • permit another person to submit applications under the Authorized User’s username;
  • continue using the platform after authorization has been suspended, withdrawn, or terminated;
  • attempt to avoid or circumvent an access suspension, account restriction, or offboarding action.

The Client Institution must notify us promptly when access should be suspended temporarily or removed permanently.

We may suspend, restrict, or deactivate access where:

  • an account is suspected of compromise or misuse;
  • the Authorized User no longer requires access;
  • the Client Institution requests suspension or removal;
  • the Authorized User breaches these Terms;
  • continued access may create a security, confidentiality, legal, or operational risk.

Temporary suspension does not automatically delete the Authorized User’s account or historical records. Access may be restored only after appropriate authorization and verification.

Permanent removal of access does not automatically require immediate deletion of the account, application records, generated reports, usage records, logs, or related historical information. Such information may continue to be retained in accordance with the applicable service agreement, Privacy Policy, AI Governance Policy, retention schedule, legal obligations, audit requirements, security needs, billing requirements, and dispute-resolution purposes.

6. Permitted use

Subject to these Terms and the applicable agreement, Authorized Users may use the platform to submit borrower/application information, upload permitted credit bureau reports where applicable, generate AI-assisted credit analysis reports, review risk indicators, support credit committee review, and maintain internal credit documentation.

7. Prohibited use

The Client Institution and Authorized Users must not:

  • access or attempt to access the platform without authorization;
  • submit borrower information or credit reports without borrower consent, lawful authority, or institutional approval where required;
  • use the platform for non-credit purposes, employment screening, marketing, debt collection, surveillance, or any purpose not approved in the applicable agreement;
  • upload irrelevant, excessive, unlawful, malicious, misleading, or unnecessary personal information;
  • use platform outputs as the sole basis for a final credit decision without human review;
  • misrepresent platform outputs as regulatory approvals, legal opinions, credit bureau reports, or final credit decisions;
  • circumvent authentication, security, usage limits, access controls, or audit logging;
  • reverse engineer, copy, scrape, resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the platform except as expressly authorized;
  • use the platform in a way that violates applicable law, institutional policy, third-party rights, or borrower confidentiality obligations;
  • share, transfer, lend, disclose, or permit another person to use login credentials or an assigned user account;
  • continue to access or attempt to access the platform after the Authorized User’s access has been suspended, restricted, removed, or terminated;
  • circumvent or attempt to circumvent an offboarding action, role removal, account restriction, branch closure, institutional termination, or other access-control measure.

8. Data processing and third-party service providers

The Client Institution acknowledges that use of the platform may involve the routing, processing, storage, analysis, and delivery of information through third-party technology service providers and subprocessors. These may include categories of providers such as workflow automation providers, database and cloud storage providers, artificial intelligence processing providers, report and document generation providers, email delivery providers, website hosting providers, website security providers, analytics providers, monitoring providers, and similar vendors used to operate, secure, maintain, or support the platform.

The Client Institution authorizes us to use such service providers to provide the platform, subject to appropriate confidentiality, security, data protection, access control, and retention measures. The Client Institution remains responsible for ensuring it is legally permitted to submit borrower/application information and uploaded credit reports through the platform workflow.

8A. Retention, recordkeeping, and offboarding

The Client Institution remains responsible for its own legal, regulatory, AML/CFT, credit-file, audit, internal governance, and institutional record-retention obligations.

Platform retention periods, deletion rules, backups, workflow records, generated reports, account records, usage records, and related information are governed by the Privacy Policy, the applicable service agreement, the AI Governance Policy, the applicable retention schedule, platform configuration, and applicable legal or contractual requirements.

Suspension or removal of an Authorized User, closure of a branch, expiry or non-renewal of a service arrangement, or termination of a Client Institution’s use of the platform does not necessarily result in immediate deletion of all related information.

Historical information may continue to be retained for the applicable retention period where reasonably necessary for:

  • report delivery and institutional review;
  • final usage and billing reconciliation;
  • audit and recordkeeping;
  • security investigations;
  • support and troubleshooting;
  • complaint or dispute handling;
  • contractual or legal obligations;
  • backup recovery and system integrity.

Deletion from an active platform system may not result in immediate deletion from backup systems, system logs, email records, or third-party service-provider systems. Such copies may remain until removed through the applicable retention, deletion, or backup cycle.

The detailed retention periods and information-handling practices are stated in the Privacy Policy and the applicable service agreement.

8B. Email delivery and receiving-system security

Where the platform delivers generated reports, notifications, links, or related communications by email, the Client Institution is responsible for ensuring that the receiving email addresses, mailboxes, mail servers, devices, forwarding rules, access permissions, and internal email-handling procedures are secure and limited to Authorized Users.

The Client Institution acknowledges that email transmission and mailbox access may involve security risks outside our control once a communication is delivered to, received by, or made available through the Client Institution’s email systems or designated recipient accounts. We are not responsible for unauthorized access, disclosure, forwarding, interception, misdirection, or internal misuse arising from the Client Institution’s receiving systems, user accounts, devices, email configuration, access controls, or internal handling after delivery.

9. AI outputs, review, and limitations

AI-assisted outputs may include summaries, observations, risk flags, recommendations, affordability calculations, explanations, and credit memo language. These outputs are generated from submitted data, uploaded documents, platform instructions, analytical logic, and third-party AI processing. Outputs may contain errors, omissions, or interpretations requiring professional review.

The Client Institution must independently review, verify, and approve any report before use. We do not guarantee that any output is complete, error-free, suitable for every borrower, aligned with every internal lending policy, or sufficient for regulatory or audit purposes without institutional review.

10. No professional or regulatory advice

The platform provides credit analysis support and report-generation assistance. It does not provide legal advice, regulatory advice, accounting advice, actuarial advice, investment advice, or final lending determinations. Client Institutions are responsible for obtaining appropriate professional advice where needed.

11. Confidentiality

Borrower/application information, uploaded credit reports, generated reports, platform workflows, proprietary credit assessment logic, prompts, templates, scoring frameworks, and system documentation are confidential. The Client Institution and Authorized Users must protect such information and use it only for authorized institutional purposes.

12. Intellectual property

We and our licensors retain all rights, title, and interest in the platform, software, workflows, report templates, prompts, credit analysis logic, user interface, documentation, trade names, designs, and related intellectual property. Except for the limited right to use the platform under the applicable agreement, no rights are transferred to the Client Institution or Authorized Users.

The Client Institution retains responsibility for information it submits. Generated reports may be used internally by the Client Institution for authorized credit review purposes, subject to the applicable agreement and these Terms.

13. Monitoring, audit logs, and security

We may monitor, log, and review platform access and activity for security, audit, troubleshooting, support, compliance, usage, abuse prevention, and governance purposes. This may include login records, timestamps, IP addresses, submission records, workflow events, report-generation events, and delivery logs.

14. Availability and changes

We may modify, update, suspend, or discontinue parts of the platform from time to time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice of material changes where appropriate. The platform may be unavailable due to maintenance, third-party service interruptions, network failures, cybersecurity events, force majeure, or other circumstances beyond our control.

15. Fees, free access periods, billing, and payment

The Client Institution shall pay all fees specified in the applicable signed service agreement, order form, invoice, or other written billing arrangement with us.

We may, in our discretion, offer a beta testing period, free trial, demonstration access, limited evaluation access, or other free-of-charge access arrangement. Any such access is limited to the period, report limit, purpose, users, and conditions approved by us in writing. Free access does not waive, reduce, or suspend the Client Institution’s or any Authorized User’s obligations under these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the AI Governance Policy, the Disclaimer, or any applicable service agreement, including obligations relating to borrower consent and lawful authority, confidentiality, data protection, authorized use, human review, security, user conduct, and compliance with applicable law.

Unless otherwise stated in the applicable signed service agreement, order form, invoice, or other written billing arrangement, fees under the standard commercial arrangement are billed on a per-report basis and invoiced monthly in arrears based on Generated Reports created by the Client Institution and its Authorized Users during the relevant calendar month.

A minimum monthly institutional invoice, onboarding fee, setup fee, platform access fee, support fee, training fee, or other fee may apply only where stated in the applicable signed service agreement, order form, invoice, or other written billing arrangement.

Except as otherwise stated in the applicable signed service agreement, order form, invoice, or written billing arrangement, payment obligations are non-cancellable, fees paid are non-refundable, and fees are exclusive of any applicable taxes, duties, levies, value-added tax, bank charges, transfer fees, withholding, payment processing fees, or other payment-related charges, which shall be the responsibility of the Client Institution where applicable.

If any undisputed fees remain unpaid for more than thirty (30) days after the invoice due date, we may suspend or restrict platform access, report generation, report delivery, support services, or other platform features until the outstanding amounts are paid in full.

16. Suspension, access removal, and termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access if the Client Institution or any Authorized User:

  • breaches these Terms or an applicable agreement;
  • fails to pay amounts due;
  • creates a security, confidentiality, legal, or operational risk;
  • uses the platform unlawfully or without proper authority;
  • submits information without required consent or authorization;
  • misuses borrower information;
  • interferes with the platform;
  • attempts to circumvent access controls;
  • continues using the platform after authorization has ended.

We may temporarily suspend or permanently remove access for an individual Authorized User, a branch or location, or the entire Client Institution, depending on the circumstances.

Upon suspension or termination, the affected Authorized User must immediately stop using the platform and must not attempt to access the platform through another user’s credentials, another branch account, or any other means.

Before completing institutional offboarding, we may review and address:

  • pending or incomplete applications;
  • failed or interrupted processing;
  • generated reports awaiting delivery;
  • unresolved support matters;
  • final usage and billing records;
  • security incidents or investigations;
  • data-return or deletion requests.

Suspension or termination does not automatically require immediate deletion of account records, application information, uploaded documents, generated reports, workflow records, usage records, billing records, support records, audit logs, or backups. Such information may continue to be retained in accordance with the applicable service agreement, Privacy Policy, AI Governance Policy, retention schedule, legal obligations, audit requirements, security needs, backup cycles, and dispute-resolution purposes.

Termination does not relieve the Client Institution or any Authorized User of confidentiality, payment, data-handling, recordkeeping, audit, intellectual-property, indemnity, dispute-resolution, or other obligations intended to survive suspension or termination.

17. Disclaimers

Except as expressly stated in a signed agreement, the platform and outputs are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We disclaim warranties to the fullest extent permitted by law, including implied warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted availability, or error-free operation.

18. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and except as expressly stated in a signed agreement, we, our affiliates, licensors, employees, contractors, and third-party technology service providers shall not be liable to the Client Institution, any Authorized User, or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential loss or damage, including loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of goodwill, business interruption, system downtime, data loss, loss of opportunity, or losses arising from non-performing loans, credit defaults, bad debts, impaired facilities, declined applications, approved applications, lending outcomes, portfolio performance, or institutional credit decisions.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total aggregate liability for claims arising out of or relating to these Terms, the platform, or any generated report shall not exceed the total fees actually paid by the Client Institution to us for the affected platform services during the three (3) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, unless a different liability cap is stated in a signed agreement.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability to the extent that such liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

19. Indemnity

The Client Institution agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us, our affiliates, licensors, contractors, and third-party service providers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, losses, costs, expenses, or fees, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or relating to:

• the Client Institution’s or any Authorized User’s breach of these Terms or any applicable agreement;

• the submission of borrower/application information, uploaded credit bureau reports, supporting documents, or related credit information without required borrower consent, notice, lawful authority, authorization, institutional approval, or regulatory permission;

• inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misleading, excessive, unlawful, or improperly obtained information submitted through the platform;

• any breach of confidentiality, borrower communication obligation, credit bureau term, data-provider restriction, third-party right, institutional policy, or applicable law by the Client Institution or any Authorized User;

• any borrower, applicant, credit bureau, data provider, regulator, auditor, or other third-party claim arising from the Client Institution’s use of the platform, use of generated reports, final lending decision, borrower communication, credit-file handling, or internal credit process;

• any use of platform outputs without appropriate human review, verification, professional judgment, credit policy application, or authorized institutional approval.

20. Privacy Policy, AI Governance Policy, and Disclaimer

Use of the platform is also subject to our Privacy Policy, AI Governance Policy, Disclaimer, and any applicable subscription agreement, service agreement, order form, or other written agreement with the Client Institution. These documents explain, among other things, how information is processed, stored, routed through service providers, used for AI-assisted analysis, retained, secured, governed, and limited in use.

21. Governing law and disputes

These Terms, their interpretation, and any contractual or non-contractual dispute, claim, or obligation arising out of or relating to the platform shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, unless otherwise stated in a signed agreement.

The parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute through discussion between authorized representatives. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after written notice of the dispute, the dispute shall be resolved in the forum and manner stated in the applicable signed agreement.

Where no signed agreement specifies a dispute-resolution forum, the parties agree that the courts of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago shall have jurisdiction, unless the parties mutually agree in writing to refer the dispute to mediation or arbitration.
