Where deletion of personal data is required by applicable law or these Terms, Mithra will delete or anonymize the off-chain personal data, & any remaining on-chain hashes will no longer be treated as personal data. You acknowledge that no system can guarantee that any record, verification, or output is error-free, & that the integrity of any verified record depends in part on the accuracy & completeness of the Customer Content & inputs you provide.

5.5  AI Output Ownership. As between you and Mithra, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you retain your ownership rights in your Customer Content and you own any AI Output (including answers, summaries, citations, classifications, and other content) generated by the Mithra Services from your Customer Content and your use of the Service.

Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days’ advanced written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. During such 60-day notice period, the parties will endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes.

Only a specific, written waiver signed by an authorized representative of Mithra will have any legal effect. The waiver by either you or Mithra of any breach of any provision of these Terms does not waive any other breach.

14.8  Severability. If any part of these Terms is found to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, the remaining portions of these Terms will remain in full force & effect. If any material limitation or restriction on the grant of any license to you under these Terms is found to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, the license will immediately terminate.
