5. Intellectual Property Rights
5.1 Ownership of Website Content

All text, images, graphics, software, trademarks, logos, and other materials on the Website are owned by Horizons Edge or licensed for our use. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or modify any content without prior written permission.


5.2 Ownership of Professional Deliverables

Unless otherwise expressly stated in a signed contract:

  • Horizons Edge retains full ownership of its underlying code, reusable components, libraries, frameworks, prompts, templates, scripts, workflows, and methodologies created or used in the course of providing services.

  • The client receives a business-use license to use the specific deliverables produced for them.

  • Clients may not resell, redistribute, replicate, or commercially exploit any deliverables outside the scope of their internal business use unless expressly permitted in writing.

This structure allows Horizons Edge to reuse non-client-specific code and methods across projects.

 
6. Use of AI and Limitations
6.1 Non-Deterministic Outputs

AI systems are inherently probabilistic and non-deterministic.
Therefore:

  • Outputs may contain errors, omissions, inaccuracies, or hallucinations;

  • Results may vary from one execution to another;

  • AI-generated content should not be considered authoritative or automatically reliable.


6.2 Human Oversight Required

Before any AI solution is put fully into production, clients are strongly advised to implement a human-in-the-loop review phase, in which:

  • A human operator reviews and approves outputs;

  • The system’s reliability is monitored over time;

  • Appropriate safeguards and validation processes are implemented.

Horizons Edge may recommend or require this phase depending on the project.


6.3 No Professional Advice

AI solutions provided by Horizons Edge:

  • Are not a substitute for legal, financial, or other regulated professional advice;

  • Must not be used as the sole basis for legal, financial, compliance, or high-risk business decisions.

Clients are responsible for ensuring that all AI outputs are reviewed and validated by competent personnel.

 
7. Client Data, Confidentiality & GDPR
7.1 Roles Under GDPR

In the context of client projects:

  • Client is the Data Controller of any personal data processed as part of their business operations.

  • Horizons Edge acts as a Data Processor, processing such data solely on the client’s documented instructions.

For Website usage:

  • Horizons Edge may act as a Data Controller for analytics or contact form submissions.


7.2 Data Processing Agreement

A separate Data Processing Agreement (DPA) will be provided and signed as part of the service contract. These Terms include only high-level GDPR obligations.


7.3 Data Storage & Transfers

Where required to perform services:

  • Data may be processed within the EU or in third countries using providers offering adequate safeguards (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses).

  • Some AI APIs or cloud tools may be hosted outside the EU.

Clients are responsible for verifying that the input data they provide is lawful and compliant.
