Sources — provider terms
The AI providers’ own terms, privacy and retention documents — the material the tool assessments turn on — grouped by provider and by the plan or tier each document governs. Each has its live link and a dated Perma.cc record.
A snapshot is a point in time — not the current terms. Providers change their terms often. The Perma.cc record shows what a document said on the date we captured it; for what applies to you today, always follow the live link. We re-check and re-snapshot on a schedule, but the live document always governs.
