Terms you can read without a lawyer.
These are the terms for using Sidecar. We've written them in plain language because that's the whole point of the product. Where a real legal decision hasn't been made yet, we say so instead of pretending.
Last updated: July 1, 2026
What Sidecar is
Sidecar is a business optimization platform. You upload documents — vendor agreements, invoices, reports — and Sidecar analyzes them to produce risk assessments, findings, deadlines, and recommendations for your business. By creating an account or submitting documents, you agree to these terms on behalf of yourself and, if applicable, the organization you represent.
What Sidecar is not: legal advice
Every analysis Sidecar produces carries this disclaimer, and it applies to the whole service:
This analysis is provided for informational and business decision support purposes only. It is not legal advice and does not replace review by qualified legal counsel. You should consult an attorney before making legal decisions or signing any agreement with material legal or financial impact.
Sidecar is decision support. It helps you understand what an agreement does and what to ask about — it does not create an attorney-client relationship, and its output should not be your only basis for a legally significant decision.
Your content
Documents you upload, and the analyses generated from them, belong to your organization. You grant us the limited rights needed to store and process them in order to provide the service — nothing more. We do not use your documents to train AI models. How we handle your data is described in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.
Acceptable use
Don't use Sidecar to:
- →Upload documents you don't have the right to share or process.
- →Attempt to access another organization's workspace, probe or circumvent access controls, or disrupt the service.
- →Resell or redistribute the service or its analyses as your own product without our written agreement.
- →Break the law, or use the output to help someone else break it.
We may suspend accounts that violate these rules. We'll tell you why.
No warranty
Sidecar is provided as-is. AI-generated analysis can be wrong or incomplete — that's why findings carry confidence levels and cite their sources, and why you should verify anything you're about to act on. We don't promise the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any analysis is complete or correct.
Limits on our liability
In plain terms: we are not liable for business decisions you make based on Sidecar's output, for indirect or consequential losses (lost profits, lost contracts, lost data), or for amounts beyond what you paid us for the service in the twelve months before the claim. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, in which case these apply to the fullest extent permitted. [Final limitation-of-liability language to be reviewed by counsel.]
Termination
You can stop using Sidecar and delete your data at any time — see the Privacy Policy for how deletion works. We may terminate accounts that violate these terms.
Governing law and disputes
[To be reviewed by counsel: governing law, jurisdiction, and dispute-resolution process have not yet been finalized and will be set here before general availability.]
Changes and contact
If these terms change materially, we'll update this page and the date at the top. Questions about any of this? Contact us or email privacy@sidecarpartner.com.
