Terms & Conditions

Last updated: September 2026

These Terms & Conditions govern access to and use of aiautomatein and its websites, content, features and services.

They apply to aiautomatein.com, aiautomatein.com, and any successor domain through which aiautomatein operates.

References in these Terms to “aiautomatein,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the publication and its website operations. References to “you” or “your” refer to a visitor, reader, contributor, commenter, correspondent or other person accessing or using the website.

Please read these Terms together with the Privacy Policy, Editorial Policy and, where applicable, the Grievance Redressal process.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By accessing or using the website, you agree to these Terms to the extent that a contractual relationship is created under applicable law.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you should discontinue use of website features requiring acceptance of them.

Merely receiving or viewing publicly available information does not waive any right that cannot lawfully be waived.

Certain services, submissions, commercial arrangements or other activities may be subject to separate terms or written agreements. Where a separate agreement expressly applies to a particular matter, that agreement will govern that matter to the extent of any inconsistency with these Terms.

2. About aiautomatein

aiautomatein is an independent publication covering enterprise artificial intelligence, automation, AI agents, governance, security, data, infrastructure, platforms and the use of AI across industries.

The website may contain:

  • news;
  • analysis;
  • articles;
  • features;
  • commentary;
  • interviews;
  • research references;
  • technical explanations;
  • images and graphics;
  • third-party links and embedded material;
  • comments or other user submissions;
  • advertising or sponsored material; and
  • other editorial or commercial content.

The nature and availability of website features may change over time.

3. Eligibility and capacity

The website is intended primarily for an adult professional and general readership.

You may browse publicly available content regardless of whether a contractual relationship is created.

Where you undertake an activity that creates contractual obligations—such as entering a commercial arrangement or accepting separate service terms—you must have the legal capacity to do so.

If you are acting for a company or other organisation, you represent that you have authority to act on its behalf for the relevant transaction or communication.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to override laws governing contractual capacity.

4. Informational and editorial purpose

Content published by aiautomatein is provided principally for general informational, journalistic, analytical and educational purposes.

Although reasonable efforts are made to publish accurate and appropriately sourced material, editorial content should not be treated as a substitute for professional advice tailored to your individual circumstances.

In particular, content should not by itself be relied upon as:

  • legal advice;
  • financial or investment advice;
  • tax advice;
  • accounting advice;
  • cybersecurity advice specific to a particular system;
  • regulatory or compliance advice;
  • medical advice; or
  • another regulated professional service.

You are responsible for obtaining appropriate professional advice before making decisions where your circumstances require it.

5. Enterprise and technology decisions

Articles may discuss technologies, products, architectures, vendors, benchmarks, implementation approaches, security practices, regulatory requirements and business strategies.

Technology environments differ materially.

A method, configuration, tool or architecture discussed in an article may not be suitable for your systems, organisation, data, security requirements, jurisdiction or risk profile.

You remain responsible for assessing the suitability, legality, security and operational consequences of any technology or practice before implementing it.

6. Accuracy and changes in information

aiautomatein seeks to maintain high editorial standards as described in the Editorial Policy.

Technology and business information can nevertheless change quickly.

Product capabilities, pricing, availability, licensing, documentation, regulations, standards, company information and other facts may change after an article is published.

Publication of information on a particular date does not constitute a promise that the information will remain current indefinitely.

Where appropriate, material may be:

  • corrected;
  • clarified;
  • updated;
  • supplemented;
  • archived; or
  • otherwise amended.

The Editorial Policy governs our approach to substantive corrections and updates.

7. No guarantee of outcomes

Nothing published on aiautomatein guarantees that:

  • a technology will perform in a particular way;
  • a product will meet particular requirements;
  • a business strategy will produce a particular result;
  • an investment will generate a return;
  • an implementation will reduce costs;
  • a security measure will prevent an incident;
  • a regulatory interpretation will remain unchanged; or
  • another predicted or anticipated outcome will occur.

Examples, calculations, estimates, benchmarks, forecasts and projections should be understood in the context in which they are presented.

8. Vendor and product information

aiautomatein may discuss or refer to products, vendors, platforms and commercial services.

References to a company or product do not by themselves constitute:

  • endorsement;
  • certification;
  • partnership;
  • recommendation;
  • warranty; or
  • representation that the product is suitable for every user.

Company statements, benchmarks and vendor-supplied information may be attributed to their source.

Any decision to purchase, deploy or rely on a third-party product is between you and the relevant provider.

9. Intellectual property belonging to aiautomatein

Unless otherwise indicated, original material created for aiautomatein—including articles, written analysis, graphics, illustrations, page design, branding, compilations and other original content—is protected by applicable intellectual-property law.

Copyright in particular content may belong to aiautomatein, an identified author, licensor or another rights holder depending on the circumstances.

The aiautomatein name, logo, visual identity and other proprietary brand elements may not be used in a manner that falsely suggests affiliation, sponsorship, approval or endorsement.

Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of aiautomatein intellectual property to you.

10. Permitted use of content

You may access publicly available aiautomatein content for ordinary personal, professional, research and informational use.

You may link to aiautomatein articles.

You may also quote or otherwise use limited portions of content where permitted by applicable copyright law, including lawful criticism, review, research or reporting, provided that any legally required attribution is made.

These Terms do not restrict rights that applicable law gives you independently of permission from aiautomatein.

11. Uses requiring permission

Except where applicable law independently permits the activity, you must not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license or commercially exploit substantial aiautomatein content without appropriate permission.

This includes, where not otherwise legally authorised:

  • republishing complete articles;
  • reproducing substantial portions of multiple articles;
  • creating systematic copies or archives of the publication;
  • reselling the content;
  • syndicating content without agreement;
  • removing copyright or attribution notices; or
  • presenting aiautomatein content as your own.

For permission enquiries, contact support@aiautomatein.com.

12. Automated access, scraping and AI training

Except for ordinary search-engine indexing, accessibility services, security services, services expressly authorised by aiautomatein, or activities independently permitted by applicable law, you must not use automated systems to systematically extract or reproduce substantial website content without permission.

This includes unauthorised:

  • scraping;
  • crawling designed primarily to copy content;
  • bulk extraction;
  • dataset creation;
  • automated republication;
  • commercial text or data harvesting; or
  • ingestion of substantial proprietary content for training, fine-tuning or developing machine-learning or generative-AI systems.

You must not circumvent technical measures, access controls or machine-readable directives used to manage automated access.

Nothing in this section restricts any statutory exception or right that cannot lawfully be excluded by contract.

13. RSS feeds and automated content feeds

Where aiautomatein provides an RSS feed or comparable feed, it may be used for ordinary feed-reader functionality and personal monitoring.

Availability of a feed does not grant permission to republish complete content, commercially syndicate the publication or create a substitute publication without authorisation.

14. Third-party intellectual property

Company names, product names, logos, trademarks and other third-party material appearing on the website may belong to their respective owners.

Their inclusion may be for identification, reporting, commentary, criticism or other legitimate editorial purposes.

Use of a third-party mark by aiautomatein does not necessarily imply that the trademark owner sponsors, endorses or is affiliated with aiautomatein.

Similarly, aiautomatein does not claim ownership of third-party marks merely because they appear in editorial coverage.

15. User comments and other public contributions

Where commenting or another public-contribution feature is available, you remain responsible for material you submit.

You must not knowingly submit material that:

  • is unlawful;
  • infringes copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights;
  • is defamatory;
  • constitutes unlawful harassment or threats;
  • impersonates another person or organisation;
  • contains malicious code or deceptive links;
  • discloses confidential information without authority;
  • constitutes spam;
  • is materially fraudulent or misleading; or
  • otherwise violates applicable law.

The fact that a comment appears on the website does not mean aiautomatein endorses it.

16. Moderation

aiautomatein may moderate comments and other user-submitted material.

Where reasonably appropriate, we may:

  • approve;
  • reject;
  • hide;
  • edit for limited technical or formatting reasons;
  • restrict;
  • disable; or
  • remove

user-submitted material.

We are not required to publish every submission received.

Moderation decisions may take account of relevance, safety, abuse, legal risk, spam, editorial standards and website operation.

17. Licence for comments and user-submitted material

You retain ownership of copyright you hold in material you submit.

By voluntarily submitting material for publication on the website, you grant aiautomatein a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, format, display, communicate and distribute that material to the extent reasonably necessary to operate the website and publish the submission for its intended purpose.

This licence does not transfer ownership of your copyright to aiautomatein.

Where you ask us to remove material and removal is appropriate, continued technical copies may remain temporarily in backups or records where reasonably necessary for security, legal or operational purposes.

Separate contributor agreements may govern commissioned or formally accepted editorial contributions.

18. Your responsibility for submitted material

By submitting content, you represent that, to the best of your knowledge:

  • you have the necessary rights or authority to submit it;
  • its submission does not knowingly infringe another person’s rights;
  • it is not intentionally unlawful or malicious; and
  • information you present as your own factual representation is not knowingly false.

You should not submit another person’s confidential, personal or copyrighted material unless you have an appropriate basis for doing so.

19. Editorial pitches and unsolicited submissions

aiautomatein may receive article pitches, research, story ideas, press releases, reports, commentary, datasets and other unsolicited material.

Sending material does not guarantee:

  • acknowledgement;
  • review;
  • publication;
  • payment;
  • an assignment;
  • a contributor relationship; or
  • any other obligation.

Unless confidentiality has been expressly agreed before the material is provided, unsolicited submissions should not be assumed to be confidential.

Do not send trade secrets, privileged documents, highly sensitive information or material subject to a confidentiality obligation unless an appropriate arrangement has first been agreed.

20. Similar ideas and independent development

Editorial subjects and ideas are often developed independently by multiple people.

Submission of an idea does not create ownership over a general topic, concept, news development or subject matter that is not independently protected by law.

aiautomatein may publish material relating to a similar subject where it has been independently researched, developed or obtained.

Nothing in this section permits copying protected expression belonging to another person.

21. Press releases and supplied materials

Press releases, company announcements, product information and other supplied materials may be used as sources for editorial work.

Providing such material does not entitle the sender to:

  • publication;
  • favourable coverage;
  • editorial approval;
  • a particular headline;
  • inclusion of requested links;
  • removal of criticism; or
  • advance review of an article.

Editorial decisions remain with aiautomatein.

22. Advertising, sponsorship and commercial content

The website may contain advertising, sponsorship, partner material or other commercial communications.

Commercial content may be identified where appropriate so that readers can distinguish it from independent editorial coverage.

Purchasing advertising or another commercial service does not entitle an organisation to favourable independent editorial treatment.

The Editorial Policy provides further information about separation between commercial and editorial activity.

23. Affiliate relationships

aiautomatein may in the future use affiliate links or similar referral arrangements.

If such arrangements are introduced, appropriate disclosures will be made where required.

An affiliate relationship does not alter your contract with the third-party seller or provider, and aiautomatein is not responsible for a third party’s products merely because a referral link appears on the website.

24. Commercial enquiries

The presence of a sales, advertising, sponsorship or partnership enquiry mechanism does not mean that aiautomatein makes a standing contractual offer through the website.

Discussions, media kits, indicative pricing, proposals or preliminary correspondence are not binding unless the circumstances and applicable law establish otherwise or a separate agreement is entered into.

Advertising, consulting, sponsorship, content partnerships or other paid engagements may be governed by separate terms, insertion orders, statements of work or contracts.

Those agreements will prevail for the services they cover.

25. No confidentiality for ordinary communications

Ordinary emails, contact-form messages, sales enquiries and submissions are not automatically confidential merely because they are sent privately.

Where you require aiautomatein to accept a specific confidentiality obligation, that obligation should be agreed expressly before the confidential information is disclosed.

This does not affect duties imposed independently by law or confidentiality commitments expressly accepted by aiautomatein.

26. External links

The website may link to third-party websites, products, services, research, documentation or other resources.

External links are provided for reference or convenience and may also form part of editorial sourcing.

aiautomatein does not control external websites and does not guarantee their:

  • availability;
  • accuracy;
  • security;
  • legality;
  • accessibility;
  • privacy practices; or
  • continued content.

You access third-party websites subject to their own terms and policies.

27. Embedded content

Pages may contain embedded videos, posts, documents, charts or other content hosted by third parties.

Third-party embedded services may operate independently and may collect information as described in the Privacy Policy and their own policies.

Their availability and functionality are outside aiautomatein’s direct control.

28. Third-party transactions

If you follow a link from aiautomatein and purchase a third-party product or service, your transaction is normally with that third party.

aiautomatein is not the seller merely because it reported on, reviewed, advertised or linked to the product.

Questions concerning payment, delivery, warranties, refunds, subscriptions or support for a third-party service should ordinarily be directed to the relevant provider.

29. Security and prohibited technical conduct

You must not knowingly interfere with the security, integrity or availability of the website.

Prohibited conduct includes attempts to:

  • gain unauthorised administrative or account access;
  • distribute malware;
  • exploit vulnerabilities for malicious purposes;
  • overwhelm website infrastructure;
  • bypass security measures;
  • interfere with other users;
  • harvest personal data unlawfully;
  • falsify technical identifiers; or
  • use the website as part of unlawful activity.

Good-faith security concerns may be reported to support@aiautomatein.com.

30. Responsible security reporting

If you believe you have identified a genuine vulnerability affecting aiautomatein, please report it without exploiting the issue beyond what is reasonably necessary to demonstrate it.

Do not:

  • access other people’s personal data;
  • alter or delete data;
  • disrupt website availability;
  • install persistent access;
  • publish credentials or private keys; or
  • demand payment as a condition for not causing harm.

A report does not automatically create an entitlement to payment, bounty or other compensation.

31. Website availability

We aim to keep the website available but do not guarantee continuous or uninterrupted operation.

Access may be affected by:

  • maintenance;
  • hosting failures;
  • software problems;
  • cyber incidents;
  • third-party outages;
  • network conditions;
  • legal requirements;
  • changes to website infrastructure; or
  • events outside reasonable control.

Features may be changed, suspended or discontinued where reasonably necessary.

32. Accounts

If user-account functionality is offered in the future, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials.

You must not knowingly permit unauthorised use of your account.

We may suspend or restrict accounts where reasonably necessary for:

  • security;
  • suspected misuse;
  • violations of these Terms;
  • legal requirements; or
  • protection of the website and its users.

Additional account-specific terms may be introduced if account functionality materially expands.

33. Privacy

Use of personal data through the website is addressed in the Privacy Policy.

By using the website, you acknowledge that technical and other information may be processed as described there.

These Terms do not replace privacy notices or consent mechanisms required under applicable data-protection law.

34. Corrections, complaints and grievances

Requests concerning factual accuracy, editorial treatment, privacy, copyright or other publication issues will be considered under the relevant aiautomatein policies and applicable law.

Submitting a complaint does not automatically establish that:

  • the content is inaccurate;
  • a legal violation occurred;
  • the content must be removed;
  • compensation is due; or
  • aiautomatein accepts liability.

Where appropriate, possible outcomes may include correction, clarification, update, amendment or other action consistent with the Editorial Policy.

35. Copyright complaints

If you believe material on aiautomatein infringes copyright or another intellectual-property right, you may contact:

support@aiautomatein.com

A useful notice should identify:

  • the work or right concerned;
  • the material complained of;
  • the relevant URL;
  • the basis of your claim;
  • your relationship to the rights holder; and
  • information reasonably necessary to assess the request.

We may request additional evidence before taking action.

Submitting a complaint does not guarantee automatic removal where the use may be licensed, permitted by law or otherwise lawful.

36. No warranty

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the website and its content are provided on an “as available” basis.

aiautomatein does not make an absolute warranty that:

  • every item will be error-free;
  • every page will always be available;
  • external links will continue to work;
  • the website will be free from all security threats;
  • information will remain current indefinitely; or
  • content will be suitable for every particular purpose.

This provision does not exclude any warranty, guarantee or statutory right that applicable law does not permit us to exclude.

37. Reliance on content

You remain responsible for decisions you make based on information obtained from the website.

Where a decision carries material technical, financial, security, regulatory, legal or business consequences, you should independently verify information and obtain appropriate expert advice where necessary.

Nothing in these Terms limits responsibility that applicable law does not permit aiautomatein to exclude.

38. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, aiautomatein will not be responsible merely because a user experiences loss resulting from:

  • reliance on information contrary to the qualifications stated in these Terms;
  • a third-party website or service;
  • temporary website unavailability;
  • unauthorised activity outside aiautomatein’s reasonable control;
  • changes made by a third-party provider after publication; or
  • use of content for a purpose for which it was not reasonably intended.

Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, these Terms do not attempt to do so.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, wilful misconduct or another liability that applicable law requires to remain available.

Nothing in this section removes rights that a consumer or other person has under mandatory law.

39. Indirect and consequential loss

To the extent permitted by applicable law, aiautomatein will not ordinarily be liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss arising solely from use of the free public website where such loss was not a reasonably foreseeable consequence of a breach attributable to aiautomatein.

This provision is subject to any mandatory statutory rights or remedies.

40. User responsibility and indemnity

To the extent permitted by applicable law, if your unlawful conduct, intentional misuse of the website or material you submit causes a third-party claim against aiautomatein, you may be responsible for the resulting loss reasonably attributable to that conduct.

This may include claims arising from:

  • intellectual-property infringement;
  • unlawful submissions;
  • impersonation;
  • malicious technical activity; or
  • violation of rights in material you knowingly submitted without authority.

This section is not intended to impose liability where the relevant loss was caused by aiautomatein’s own unlawful conduct or where applicable law prevents such allocation of liability.

41. Suspension or restriction of access

aiautomatein may take reasonable steps to restrict access to website features where necessary to address:

  • misuse;
  • abuse;
  • security threats;
  • unlawful conduct;
  • repeated Terms violations;
  • spam;
  • automated extraction; or
  • legal requirements.

Where practicable, action will be proportionate to the issue involved.

42. Changes to content and services

aiautomatein may change:

  • website structure;
  • categories;
  • publication formats;
  • features;
  • commenting functionality;
  • search;
  • newsletters;
  • advertising arrangements;
  • domains;
  • branding; or
  • other aspects of the publication.

The website is not required to preserve a particular feature indefinitely unless a separate contractual commitment expressly provides otherwise.

43. Changes to these Terms

These Terms may be updated from time to time to reflect:

  • changes in law;
  • website functionality;
  • business operations;
  • publication practices;
  • technology;
  • security requirements; or
  • other legitimate operational needs.

The Last updated date identifies the current published version.

Where a material change legally requires additional notice or consent, appropriate steps will be taken.

Continued use after an updated version becomes effective may constitute acceptance to the extent recognised by applicable law.

44. Electronic communications

Where you communicate with aiautomatein electronically, responses, notices and other communications may also be provided electronically where appropriate.

Use of electronic communications does not by itself mean that every enquiry creates a binding commercial agreement.

Where a separate contract is required for a commercial engagement, its formation will depend on the relevant communications and applicable law.

Indian law recognises that contracts are not unenforceable merely because proposals and acceptances are communicated electronically. India Code

45. Relationship between the policies

These Terms should be read together with:

Privacy Policy — personal-data processing and privacy practices.

Editorial Policy — editorial standards, sourcing, corrections, independence and publication practices.

Grievance Redressal — applicable process for qualifying grievances and complaints.

If a specific policy contains more detailed rules for its subject, that policy should be applied to that subject together with these Terms.

A separate written commercial or contributor agreement will prevail over these Terms where it expressly governs the same matter.

46. Governing law

These Terms and use of the website are governed by the laws of India, subject to any mandatory law that applies irrespective of this provision.

The Indian Contract Act governs core principles of contractual validity, while section 10A of the Information Technology Act recognises electronic contract formation. India Code

Nothing in these Terms requires a person to waive a legal protection that cannot validly be waived.

47. Jurisdiction

Subject to mandatory consumer, statutory or other jurisdictional rights, disputes relating to these Terms or the website will be subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts having jurisdiction over aiautomatein’s principal place of operation in India.

This provision is not intended to deprive a person of a forum that applicable mandatory law requires to remain available.

48. Severability

If a competent authority determines that a provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent legally possible.

Where appropriate, an invalid provision should be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable rather than invalidating the Terms as a whole.

49. No waiver

A failure or delay by aiautomatein in exercising a right under these Terms does not necessarily waive that right.

A waiver relating to one matter does not automatically constitute a waiver relating to another matter.

50. Transfer of website operations

If aiautomatein or substantially all relevant website operations are transferred, reorganised or operated through another legal structure, rights and obligations connected with the website may transfer to the successor where permitted by applicable law.

Any associated handling of personal data will remain subject to applicable privacy requirements and the Privacy Policy.

51. Entire understanding for website use

These Terms, together with the policies expressly incorporated into them, constitute the general terms governing use of the public website.

They do not replace separately executed:

  • employment agreements;
  • contributor agreements;
  • advertising agreements;
  • sponsorship agreements;
  • consulting agreements;
  • statements of work;
  • licences; or
  • other contracts.

Those arrangements remain governed by their own terms.

52. Statutory rights

Nothing in these Terms is intended to:

  • exclude rights that cannot lawfully be excluded;
  • prevent use permitted under applicable copyright law;
  • eliminate mandatory consumer protections;
  • prevent lawful reporting or criticism;
  • restrict access to courts where such access cannot lawfully be restricted; or
  • waive obligations imposed on aiautomatein by applicable law.

The Indian Contract Act itself restricts contractual provisions that are unlawful or improperly restrain legal proceedings, while the Consumer Protection Act recognises protections against unfair contractual terms. India Code
