You should review the applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any website to which you navigate from the Site or relating to any applications you use or install from the Site.

Content

Your Content

You may provide input to the Services (“Input”), and receive output generated and returned by the Services based on the Input (“Output”). Input and Output are collectively “Content.” Quench.ai may use Content to provide and maintain the Services, comply with applicable law, and enforce our policies. 

Similarity of Content

Due to the nature of machine learning, output may not be unique across users and the Services may generate the same or similar results for different users. For example, you may provide input to the model such as “What is a product roadmap?” and receive output comprising of several recommended content. Another user may provide the same input to the model, and receive a different set of recommendations based on the algorithm’s functionality at that point in time. 

Use of Content to Improve Services 

We may use your input to our services to develop or improve our Services. We may use data from you directly in the form of your input to the service or indirectly in the form of your use of our services to help develop and improve our service. 

Accuracy

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are rapidly evolving fields of study. We are constantly working to improve our Services to make them more accurate, reliable, safe and beneficial. Given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, use of our Services may in some situations result in incorrect Output that does not accurately reflect or respond to the input or query into the service. You should evaluate the relevance of any Output as appropriate for your use case, including by using human review of the Output.
