About this course

Few contract-drafters really understand data, particularly the fact that you can't own meaningful IP rights in data. So contracts often address data rights poorly, particularly in agreements about SaaS and other cloud services. Plus, new, complex issues arise when AI-related contracts grapple with data terms. This webinar addresses all these issues and explains the terms you need to manage data.

Enroll you can ask David Tollen questions (via chat) and learn the most up-to-date best practices on the cutting-edge issues impacting data terms, particularly the ever-changing issues raised by gen-AI. You also get access to a webinar recording for 30 days after (even if you miss the live event).

Topics covered include:

  • “Ownership” of data and the limited value of IP
  • Rights in prompts, training data, and outputs from machine learning, including generative AI
  • Data indemnities and the problems they raise
  • Promising privacy compliance, or not
  • And more …
