4. Artificial Intelligence and Automated Processing

CiteRightuses artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning technologies to provide certain features. This section describes how AI is used and what data may be processed.

How We Use AI

• Document drafting assistance (e.g., commutation applications, legal briefs)
• Legal research and case law analysis via our copilot feature
• Citation verification and cross-referencing
• Summarization of legal documents and court records
• Voice transcription of dictated content

Data Sent to AI Providers

When you use AI-powered features, portions of your input (such as case details, document text, or voice audio) may be transmitted to third-party AI providers for processing. We minimize the data sent to only what is necessary for the requested function. AI providers are contractually prohibited from using your data to train their models.

Human Review Requirement

All AI-generated output is provided as a draft and requires human review before submission or reliance. AI output does not constitute legal advice. You are responsible for verifying the accuracy, completeness, and appropriateness of any AI-generated content before use.

5. Information Sharing and Subprocessors

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

• Service providers who assist in our operations
• Legal authorities when required by law
• Business partners with your consent

Subprocessor List

The following third-party service providers process data on our behalf. Each subprocessor is bound by data processing agreements that limit how your data may be used.

6. Data Retention

We retain your data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. The following retention periods apply:

• Case data and legal documents: 7 years from last activity, or as required by applicable record-retention laws
• AI and copilot interaction logs: 90 days, then automatically purged
• Payment and billing records: 7 years, as required by tax and financial regulations
• Audit and security logs: 3 years
• Account profile data: Retained until you delete your account or request erasure

When data reaches the end of its retention period, it is securely deleted or anonymized so that it can no longer be associated with you.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, consistent with applicable law.

• Access your personal information
