Content Available through the Services Groq attempts to provide accurate information on its Websites. However, we take no responsibility for the accuracy of the information, content or materials which you may have access to as part of, or through your use of the Websites or Services. All information, content and material are provided as-is.

You agree that you are solely responsible for your reuse of information, content or materials made available through the Websites or Services, including providing proper attribution. You should review the terms of the applicable license prior to reuse.

Licensing: Nothing in these Terms grants you any license right or other rights to the Website, Groq Services, products or materials provided through the website.

Generative AI In addition to these Terms, use of and access to generative AI models made available through the Website (“Generative AI Services”) are also subject to terms and conditions specified by the owner of the generative AI models. You agree that your use of any of these models will comply with the additional terms and conditions as specified on the Model Card for the generative AI models identified at https://console.groq.com/docs/models

Notwithstanding the restriction on licensing set forth in section 4, Content Available through the Services, User Data shall be owned by you and is not retained or used by Groq other than to perform the Generative AI Services hereunder. User Data includes any and all content generated by the Generative AI Services in response to a Prompt (“Outputs”) as well as your Prompts and Training Data. “Prompts” are defined as any and all instructions, queries, visual or textual cues given by you to the Generative AI Services in order to generate an Output. “Training Data” is user supplied data for fine tuning or customization of models and may comprise a collection of textual, visual, and/or multimedia data that provides the model with the necessary context, knowledge, and inspiration to generate meaningful, coherent and responsive Outputs.

If you supply any Training Data for the purpose of prompting, fine-tuning or customizing the Generative AI Services to your specific needs or use-case, Groq will not use the Training Data other than to perform the Generative AI Services for you. Groq does not permanently retain Prompts, Output or your Training Data on its servers.

When you use the Generative AI Services, you provide Prompts to generate Outputs in return on a third party model. You are solely responsible for your use of the Prompts and the Outputs and for complying with the terms of use specified by the third party model owner. You shall only use Prompts to which you own all required rights under applicable law and do so in a manner that is consistent with the applicable law. You shall not intentionally make the Generative AI Services generate Outputs infringing intellectual property rights, third party rights or applicable law, or use such infringing Outputs after you become aware of such infringement.

You hereby represent that you own your Prompts. You retain all the rights, including but not limited to the intellectual property rights to Your Prompts. You grant Groq a worldwide, revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right to use the Prompts, together with your Training Data, for the purpose of performing the Generative AI Services, for the term of these Terms.

Where applicable, Groq assigns to you, all the intellectual property rights Groq may have in the Outputs generated by your Prompts. This assignment is granted worldwide and for the entire legal term of protection of the Outputs by the intellectual property rights applicable as provided for by the applicable law. However, you are expressly prohibited to use the Outputs and/or any modified or derived version of the Outputs to (directly or indirectly) to reverse engineer any aspect of the Generative AI Services.

You agree that, due to the nature of Generative AI Services, if another user uses a Prompt similar to yours, the Generative AI Services may generate an Output similar or identical to yours. We do not warrant that your Output is not similar or identical to another user’s Output. Consequently, we will not indemnify you in case your Output is similar or identical to another user’s Output or Training Data.

You acknowledge and agree that Generative AI Services are inherently subject to certain unpredictabilities, as such Outputs depend on your Prompt and the technology behind the Generative AI Services which is complex and continuously evolving.

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF ANY DOUBT AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE GENERATIVE AI SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY REGARDING THE QUALITY OR THE ACCURACY OF THE OUTPUTS. CONSEQUENTLY, YOU AGREE THAT THE OUTPUTS GENERATED BY GENERATIVE AI SERVICES MAY BE INCOMPLETE, NOT UP-TO-DATE OR NOT ENTIRELY ACCURATE.

The Generative AI Services may sometimes provide inaccurate or offensive content that doesn’t represent Groq’s views. You agree to use discretion before relying on, publishing, or otherwise using Output provided by the Generative AI Services. If you provide any feedback pertaining to the accuracy, relevance, and effectiveness of the Outputs, you grant Groq a worldwide, non-revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right to use your Feedback for the purpose of improving the Generative AI Services. You are responsible for making commercially reasonable efforts to make sure the Generative AI Services do not generate Outputs that contain offensive, inappropriate or illicit content. To this end, Groq strongly recommends that you implement appropriate moderation mechanisms for the model(s), by way of example, including the use of a system prompt that instructs the model to generate responses that are safe, respectful, and appropriate as well as providing clear and accessible guidelines for users. You are responsible for continuously monitoring and evaluating the model’s performance to identify and address any issues or concerns arising from your use. Because, neither we nor the model owners warrant that the Output generated will not be offensive, inappropriate or illicit, you are solely responsible for the use of the Output and you shall in no way use the Output for any illicit or unlawful purpose and/or to harm others. Do not rely on the Generative AI Services for medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. Any content regarding those topics is provided for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.

GroqCloud Terms of Sale

These terms and conditions (Terms) are an agreement between Groq, Inc.,(“Groq”) and you (“Customer” or “you”) that governs your use of our Services (as defined below). By executing the Order for the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms also refer to and incorporate Groq’s Privacy Policy, Terms of Use and any ordering document signed by you and Groq ( “Order Form”) or Groq webpage through which you purchased the Services (an “Online Order Form”) (collectively, the “Agreement”).

1. Purchase and Use of Services

1.1 Services. Services means services Groq makes available for purchase or use, along with any of our associated software, tools, developer services, documentation, application programming interfaces (“APIs”), and websites, but excluding any Hosted Model, Customer Data or Non-Groq application (as defined below).

1.2 Purchase of Services. Services and access to the Hosted Model are purchased pursuant to these Terms and include either applicable standard support for the Services that Groq provides to customers at no additional charge or upgraded support if purchased. “ Hosted Model” means the artificial intelligence models obtained from publicly available or third party providers and made available to Customer through Services. Groq will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services and Hosted Model available, except for: (a) planned downtime for which Groq can give reasonable notice; and (b) any unavailability beyond Groq’s reasonable control. 1.3 Use Rights. We grant you a non-exclusive right to access and use the Services during the Term (the “Use Rights”). Your Use Rights are non-transferable. Your Use Rights include the right to use Groq’s APIs to integrate the Services into your applications, products, or services (each a “Customer Application”) and to make the Services available to End Users through your Customer Applications. An “End User” means the legal entity who is authorized by Customer to use the Services through Customer Application.

1.4 Customer Responsibilities.

Your access to the content provided by the API may be restricted, limited, or filtered in accordance with applicable law, regulation, and policy. Additionally, some of the software required by or included in our APIs may be offered under an open source license. Open source software licenses constitute separate written agreements. For certain APIs, open source software is listed in the documentation. To the limited extent the open source software license expressly supersedes the Terms, the open source license instead sets forth your agreement with Groq for the applicable open source software.

1.6 Suspension. Any breach of this Agreement that in Groq’s judgment threatens the security, integrity or availability of Services may result in the suspension of Services to Customer and End Users. Groq will restore access to the Services after the event giving rise to the suspension has been resolved to Groq’s reasonable satisfaction.

_14.1 MANDATORY ARBITRATION. You and Groq agree to resolve any claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or our Services, regardless of when the claim arose, even if it was before this Agreement existed (a "Dispute"), through final and binding arbitration.

_14.2 Informal Dispute Resolution. We would like to understand and try to address your concerns prior to formal legal action. Before either of us files a claim against the other, we both agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally. If we are unable to resolve a Dispute within 60 days, either of us has the right to initiate arbitration. We also both agree to attend an individual settlement conference if either party requests one during this time. Any statute of limitations will be tolled during this informal resolution process.

_14.3 Arbitration Forum. Both you or Groq may commence binding arbitration through National Arbitration and Mediation (NAM), an alternative dispute resolution provider, and if NAM is not available, you and Groqwill select an alternative arbitral forum. The initiating party must pay all filing fees for the arbitration and payment for other administrative and arbitrator's costs will be governed by the arbitration provider's rules. If your claim is determined to be frivolous, you are responsible for reimbursing us for all administrative, hearing, and other fees that we have incurred as a result of the frivolous claim.

_14.4 Arbitration Procedures. The arbitration will be conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, video conference, or in person in Santa Clara, California or at another mutually agreed location. The arbitration will be conducted by a sole arbitrator by NAM under its then-prevailing rules. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except a California court has the authority to determine (a) whether any provision of this arbitration agreement should be severed and the consequences of said severance, (b) whether you have complied with conditions precedent to arbitration, and (c) whether an arbitration provider is available to hear the arbitration(s) under Section 14.3. The amount of any settlement offer will not be disclosed to the arbitrator by either party until after the arbitrator determines the final award, if any.

_14.5 Exceptions. Nothing in this Agreement requires arbitration of the following claims: (a) individual claims brought in small claims court; and (b) injunctive or other equitable relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement.

_14.8 Severability. If any part of this Section 14 is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remainder will remain in effect, except that if a finding of partial illegality or unenforceability would allow class or representative arbitration, this Section 14 will be unenforceable in its entirety. Nothing in this section will be deemed to waive or otherwise limit the right to seek public injunctive relief or any other non-waivable right, pending a ruling on the substance of that claim from the arbitrator.

15. Modifications to these Terms

15.1 Updates. We may update these Terms by providing you with reasonable notice, including by posting the update on our website.

16.8 Assignment. This Agreement cannot be assigned other than as permitted under this Section 16.8 (Assignment). We may assign this Agreement to an affiliate without notice or your consent. Both you and Groq may assign this Agreement to a successor to substantially all the respective party's assets or business, provided that the assigning party provides reasonable (at least 30 days) prior written notice of the assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Effective February 19, 2025

These terms and conditions (“Terms”) are an agreement between Groq Limited Company, a Saudi limited liability company registered in Riyadh under commercial register number 1009094094 and dated 02/03/1446H, having its head office in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (“Groq”) and you (“Customer” or “you”) that governs your use of our Services (as defined below). By executing the Order Form for the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms also refer to and incorporate Groqʼs Privacy Policy for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Terms of Use for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and any ordering document signed by you and Groq ( “Order Form”) or Groq webpage through which you purchased the Services (an “Online Order Form”) (collectively, the “Agreement”).

Purchase and Use of Services

1.1. Services. “Services” means services Groq or its affiliates makes available for purchase or use, along with any of our associated software, tools, developer services, documentation, application programming interfaces (“APIs”), and websites, but excluding any Hosted Model, Customer Data or Non-Groq application (as defined below). For the purposes of this Agreement, "affiliate" means any entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with a party. In particular, you agree that some of the Services may be performed for you by Groq, Inc. as agent for and on behalf of Groq.

1.2. Purchase of Services. Services and access to the Hosted Model are purchased pursuant to these Terms and include either applicable standard support for the Services that Groq provides to customers at no additional charge or upgraded support if purchased. “Hosted Model” means the artificial intelligence models obtained from publicly available or third-party providers and made available to Customer through Services. Groq will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services and Hosted Model available, except for: (a) planned downtime for which Groq can give reasonable notice; and (b) any unavailability beyond Groqʼs reasonable control.

1.3. Use Rights. We grant you a non-exclusive right to access and use the Services during the Term (the “Use Rights”). Your Use Rights are non-transferable. Your Use Rights include the right to use Groqʼs APIs to integrate the Services into your applications, products, or services (each a “Customer Application”) and to make the Services available to End Users through your Customer Applications. An “End User” means the legal entity who is authorized by Customer to use the Services through Customer Application.

1.4. Customer Responsibilities. Customer will (a) be responsible for End Usersʼ compliance with this Agreement, and (b) be responsible for the accuracy and legality of Customer Data, use of Customer Data with the Services, and Customer use of the Hosted Model. Customer further agrees to use the Services in accordance with the Terms of Use for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. You may not make account access credentials available to third parties, share individual login credentials between multiple users on an account, or resell or lease access to your account. You will promptly notify us if you become aware of any unauthorized access to or use of your account or our Services.

1.5. Third-Party Terms. The Hosted Model and any Non-Groq Applications are provided by third parties and are subject to separate terms of use. “Non-Groq Application” means application or functionality provided by the Customer or a third-party that interoperates with the Services. Customer will comply with the terms and conditions or license of any Non-Groq Application and Hosted Model with which Customer uses Services. Non-Groq Applications accessible through the Services, including our APIs, may be subject to intellectual property rights, and, if so, you may not use it unless you are licensed to do so by the owner of that content or are otherwise permitted by law. Your access to the content provided by the API may be restricted, limited, or filtered in accordance with applicable law, regulation, and policy. Additionally, some of the software required by or included in our APIs may be offered under an open source license. Open source software licenses constitute separate written agreements. For certain APIs, open source software is listed in the documentation. To the limited extent the open source software license expressly supersedes the Terms, the open source license instead sets forth your agreement with Groq for the applicable open source software.

1.6. Suspension. Any breach of this Agreement that in Groqʼs judgment threatens the security, integrity or availability of Services may result in the suspension of Services to Customer and End Users. Groq will restore access to the Services after the event giving rise to the suspension has been resolved to Groqʼs reasonable satisfaction.
Payment and Pricing

2.1. Fees. All Services shall be paid for in accordance with the Pricing Page or your Order Form, which may also designate the Services as fee-free or otherwise available without triggering a payment due for a limited time. Except as otherwise specified herein or in the applicable Order Form; (a) pricing and fees are calculated based on usage during the Term; (b) payment obligations are non-cancellable and fees are non-refundable: and (c) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the Term.

2.2. Taxes. Unless required by applicable law, fees are considered exclusive of taxes. Customer will be solely responsible for any and all applicable taxes, including but not limited to sales and use taxes, value added tax, corporate tax, withholding tax, excise tax, consumption tax, customs duties or similar charges or fees, which Groq will charge as required in accordance with the prevailing domestic tax laws applicable when the supply is made. Where taxes are due on the transaction, Groq will issue valid tax invoices in the timeframe and form required by the prevailing domestic tax laws.

2.3. Price Changes. Price changes will be effective thirty (30) days after they are posted to the Pricing Page, unless otherwise agreed to in an Order Form. For Services purchased according to an Order Form with annual commitments, pricing may not be changed during the Term of the then-current Order Form.

All other changes are effective immediately when we post them. Your continued use of any Website or Services following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes.

4. Content Available through the Services

Groq attempts to provide accurate information on its Websites. However, we take no responsibility for the accuracy of the information, content or materials which you may have access to as part of, or through your use of the Websites or Services. All information, content and material are provided as-is.

Licensing: Nothing in these Terms grants you any license right or other rights to the Website, Groq Services, products or materials provided through the website.

5. Generative AI.

In addition to these Terms, use of and access to generative AI models made available through the Website ("Generative AI Services") are also subject to terms and conditions specified by the owner of the generative AI models. You agree that your use of any of these models will comply with the additional terms and conditions as specified on the Model Card for the generative AI models identified at https://console.groq.com/docs/models.

Notwithstanding the restriction on licensing set forth in section 4, Content Available through the Services, User Data shall be owned by you and is not retained or used by Groq other than to perform the Generative AI Services hereunder. User Data includes any and all content generated by the Generative AI Services in response to a Prompt ("Outputs") as well as your Prompts and Training Data. "Prompts" are defined as any and all instructions, queries, visual or textual cues given by you to the Generative AI Services in order to generate an Output. "Training Data" is user supplied data for fine tuning or customization of models and may comprise a collection of textual, visual, and/or multimedia data that provides the model with the necessary context, knowledge, and inspiration to generate meaningful, coherent and responsive Outputs.

When you use the Generative AI Services, you provide Prompts to generate Outputs in return on a third-party model. You are solely responsible for your use of the Prompts and the Outputs and for complying with the terms of use specified by the third-party model owner. You shall only use Prompts to which you own all required rights under applicable law and do so in a manner that is consistent with the applicable law. You shall not intentionally make the Generative AI Services generate Outputs infringing intellectual property rights, third party rights or applicable law, or use such infringing Outputs after you become aware of such infringement.

You agree that, due to the nature of Generative AI Services, if another user uses a Prompt similar to yours, the Generative AI Services may generate an Output similar or identical to yours. We do not warrant that your Output is not similar or identical to another user's Output. Consequently, we will not indemnify you in case your Output is similar or identical to another user's Output or Training Data.

The Generative AI Services may sometimes provide inaccurate or offensive content that doesn't represent Groq's views. You agree to use discretion before relying on, publishing, or otherwise using Output provided by the Generative AI Services. If you provide any feedback pertaining to the accuracy, relevance, and effectiveness of the Outputs, you grant Groq a worldwide, non-revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right to use your Feedback for the purpose of improving the Generative AI Services. You are responsible for making commercially reasonable efforts to make sure the Generative AI Services do not generate Outputs that contain offensive, inappropriate or illicit content. To this end, Groq strongly recommends that you implement appropriate moderation mechanisms for the model(s), by way of example, including the use of a system prompt that instructs the model to generate responses that are safe, respectful, and appropriate as well as providing clear and accessible guidelines for users. You are responsible for continuously monitoring and evaluating the model's performance to identify and address any issues or concerns arising from your use. Because, neither we nor the model owners warrant that the Output generated will not be offensive, inappropriate or illicit, you are solely responsible for the use of the Output and you shall in no way use the Output for any illicit or unlawful purpose and/or to harm others. Do not rely on the Generative AI Services for medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. Any content regarding those topics is provided for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.

9. Indemnification

To the extent authorized by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Groq, its employees, officers, directors, affiliates, and agents ("Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, losses, expenses, damages, and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with any claim arising out of your breach of these Terms.

Your right to access and use the Websites and Services will be automatically terminated if you violate any of the Terms.

The disclaimer of warranties, the limitation of liability, and the jurisdiction and applicable law provisions will survive any termination. Your warranties and indemnification obligations will survive for one year after termination.

12. Miscellaneous Terms

You may not use or material in violation of US export laws and regulations.

The Terms (including the existence, breach, validity, interpretation, performance or termination of these Terms or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or relating to these Terms) shall be governed and construed by Saudi law.

Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, including any dispute relating to the breach, existence, validity, performance, interpretation or termination of these Terms or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or relating to these Terms, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration.
