The AI models may occasionally generate content that appears authoritative but contains factual or legal inaccuracies. c.

The AI models may have difficulty with heavily redacted documents, documents with complex formatting, or documents containing primarily non-textual content such as images or charts.
AI Processing Controls: The MS Word Extension provides options to control the extent of AI processing, including: a. The ability to select specific portions of text for processing rather than submitting the entire document b. Options to limit the types of suggestions or modifications the AI can make c. Settings to control the level of detail in AI-generated responses
AI System Updates: The underlying AI systems may be updated or changed over time to improve performance, security, or functionality. While such updates generally do not require notification, any significant changes that materially affect how Your data is processed will be communicated through updates to this Privacy Policy.
This AI integration is conducted in accordance with Section 8 of this Privacy Policy ("AI Model Integration"). By using the MS Word Extension, You expressly consent to the processing of Your document content by these AI models for the sole purpose of providing You with the requested Services.
