Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using CIOPages.com. By accessing or using the Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing and using CIOPages.com (the "Website"), you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any of these terms, you are prohibited from using or accessing this site. The materials contained in this Website are protected by applicable copyright and trademark law.
2. Description of Service
CIOPages helps technology leaders with six jobs: deciding where AI goes in the business, governing the AI already in use, choosing and buying technology, controlling technology spend, modernizing the estate, and securing and complying. It publishes job pages, Buyer Guides, vendor comparisons, State of Play, Trench Notes, articles, research, a vendor Directory, interactive tools, decision apps that use AI (the "Apps"), and a store of digital products. Content is provided for informational and educational purposes. Paid placements, sponsorships and paid guest contributions are labeled.
3. Accounts and the Apps
The Apps are free to use with a CIOPages account. By creating an account you agree to the following:
- One person per account. Give your real name and a work email address you control. Keep your password confidential. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
- Allowance. Each account has a monthly allowance of AI requests. We may change the allowance, change or remove Apps, or end free access, at any time and without notice.
- What you enter. Enter only information you are allowed to share. Do not enter another organization's confidential information without permission, personal data about other people without a lawful basis, or regulated data such as health records or payment card numbers. When you ask an App's AI for help, what you entered is sent to our AI providers, as described in the Privacy Policy.
- AI output. App output is generated automatically. It can be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and it is not professional advice. Check it before you rely on it or share it. You may use the output for your organization's own purposes.
- Fair use. Do not create more than one account to get more requests, try to get around the allowance or rate limits, access the Apps by automated means, or use the Apps to build a competing product.
- Closing an account. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms. You can close your account at any time through our Contact Form.
