1.2 United Kingdom and Non-EU Contracting Rule

2. Definitions

• "AI Act" means Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 laying down harmonised rules on artificial intelligence.
• "API" means the application programming interfaces provided by Netcore, including OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
• "Authorized User" means any employee, contractor, or agent authorized by the Customer to access the Service under Customer's account.
• "Customer Data" means all text, prompts, documents, files, datasets, embeddings, vector indices, and metadata submitted to or generated within the Customer's Service instance, excluding Provider Operational Data.
• "Customer-Supplied Model" means any open-weight, fine-tuned, adapter, LoRA, or proprietary model weight imported, downloaded, or executed by Customer on the Service.
• "Deployer" has the meaning defined under Article 3(4) of the AI Act.
• "European Infrastructure" means compute, storage, and networking hardware located physically and legally within the EU/EEA.
• "GDPR" means Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation).
• "Model" means any machine-learning model (LLM, vision-language model, embedding, reranker) running on the platform.
• "Output" means text, code, structured responses, or embeddings returned by a Model via the Service.
• "Provider-Managed Model" means a curated catalog model deployed, optimized, and operated by Netcore.
• "Provider Operational Data" means system logs, security telemetry, capacity metrics, and billing data generated by Netcore, excluding Customer Data contents.
• "Service" means the Numero6.ai platform, including managed inference engines (vLLM, Ollama), Open WebUI instances, Model Context Protocol (MCP) tooling, RAG pipelines, and SearXNG modules.

3. Electronic Acceptance and Registration

3.1 Digital Contract Formation

• Completing the online registration or onboarding process on the website or console;
• Checking the digital acceptance box acknowledging these Terms during checkout;
• Generating an API key or provisioning an inference instance;
• Executing an enterprise Order Form referencing these Terms.

3.2 Authority to Bind

4. Sovereign Infrastructure and Data Commitments

4.1 Strict European Data Sovereignty

• Exclusively EU/EEA Infrastructure: All Customer Data, vector indices, RAG documents, inference computations, and runtime caches reside exclusively within European Infrastructure located inside the EU/EEA, unless otherwise explicitly instructed or agreed in writing by the Customer in an applicable Order Form. Where non-EEA processing is requested by the Customer, Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring an appropriate legal transfer mechanism pursuant to Chapter V of the GDPR.
• Zero Model Training on Customer Data: Customer Data (prompts, context, RAG documents, outputs) is never used to train, retrain, fine-tune, or evaluate base models, public models, or any third-party AI models.
• No Third-Country Transfers: Customer Data is never transferred, routed, or accessible to third-country jurisdictions outside the EU/EEA without explicit, documented written instructions from Customer.
• Independent Operations: The core infrastructure is operated without operational reliance on non-EU cloud hyperscalers that could be subjected to foreign extraterritorial access orders.

4.2 Transparent Flat-Fee Architecture

5. AI Models and Exclusion of Warranties

5.1 Model Selection and Customer-Supplied Models

1. Catalog Models: Netcore provides a catalog of open-weight models (e.g., Llama, Mistral, Qwen series) running on optimized engines (vLLM, Ollama). Netcore reserves the right to update, patch, or deprecate catalog models upon reasonable notice for security or licensing reasons.
2. Customer-Supplied Models: Customer may download, import, and execute custom open-weight models, private weights, LoRA adapters, or custom fine-tunes within its allocated tier, subject to technical hardware compatibility.

5.2 Absolute Disclaimer of Model Accuracy and Fitness

1. Probabilistic Outputs: Customer acknowledges that artificial intelligence inference is inherently probabilistic.
2. No Guarantee of Quality or Factuality: NETCORE DOES NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, COMPLETENESS, FACTUALITY, LEGAL VALIDITY, SAFETY, OR LAWFULNESS OF ANY OUTPUT GENERATED BY ANY MODEL.
3. Customer’s Sole Responsibility to Evaluate: The Customer is solely and exclusively responsible for evaluating, testing, verifying, and validating the performance, correctness, bias, hallucination potential, and suitability of any Model and Output for Customer's specific operational, commercial, or regulatory requirements.
4. Regulated and High-Risk Domains: If Customer uses the Service in connection with medical diagnostics, legal evaluation, credit assessment, employment screening, financial advice, or critical infrastructure, Customer does so at its sole risk and must implement qualified, independent human review.

5.3 Customer Warranties for Custom Models

• It holds all required intellectual property licenses, distribution rights, and open-source permissions;
• The model weights and configurations do not contain malicious code, security backdoors, or exploit scripts;
• The model does not violate third-party rights, trade secrets, or statutory restrictions.
