Important Disclaimers

Please read these disclaimers carefully before using CSOAI services

Version 1.0
Last Updated: January 2026

1. We issue no certification

A MEASUREMENT CARD DOES NOT GUARANTEE REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. WE DO NOT CERTIFY.

A Council Academy training record shows a person completed a course. It is not a certification of an AI system. We measure; we do not certify. However:

  • A training record is not a substitute for compliance. Organizations remain fully responsible for ensuring their AI systems comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and local laws.
  • A measurement is a point-in-time assessment. It reflects the state of the system at the time of the run, not ongoing compliance.
  • Regulatory requirements change. Laws and regulations evolve. A signed card does not guarantee compliance with future regulatory changes.
  • Each organization is unique. Our training covers general frameworks, but specific compliance requirements depend on your industry, jurisdiction, and AI use cases.
  • Organizations must conduct their own assessments. A measurement card does not replace the need for independent legal review, risk assessment, or regulatory audits.

2. Not Legal Advice

CSOAI SERVICES DO NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL ADVICE

CSOAI provides training, tools, and frameworks for AI safety and compliance. However:

  • Our services are educational and informational only. They do not constitute legal advice, regulatory advice, or professional consultation.
  • We are not a law firm and do not practice law. Our staff are not licensed attorneys and cannot provide legal opinions.
  • You should consult qualified legal counsel for advice specific to your situation, jurisdiction, and compliance requirements.
  • No attorney-client relationship is created by your use of CSOAI services.
  • Reliance on CSOAI materials does not substitute for professional legal advice.

3. AI-Generated Content & Council

CSOAI USES AI SYSTEMS THAT MAY PRODUCE ERRORS

Our platform incorporates artificial intelligence, including the designed 33-seat Council of AI (a design, not a measured live pipeline). Users should understand:

  • AI systems can make mistakes. AI-assisted assessments, AI-generated assessments, recommendations, and content may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies.
  • the council is a design, not a live safeguard. The target is a 23/33 threshold (strictly greater than two thirds), but no independent live voters, consensus property, or resilience under failed voters have been demonstrated.
  • AI cannot replace human judgment. All AI-generated outputs should be reviewed by qualified humans before taking action.
  • Training data limitations. AI models are trained on historical data and may not reflect current regulations, best practices, or emerging risks.
  • No guarantee of accuracy. We do not warrant that AI-generated content is complete, accurate, or suitable for any particular purpose.

4. Insurance Coverage Limitations

INSURANCE DISCLOSURE AND CLIENT RESPONSIBILITY

CSOAI LTD does not state professional indemnity cover until the policy document is on file (corrections ledger C-2026-0902-06). In any case:

  • No CSOAI cover is stated here. This page provides no evidence of a policy, coverage limit, insurer, broker, or term.
  • Organizations must maintain their own insurance. As specified in our Membership and Licensing Agreements, organizations are required to maintain appropriate insurance coverage based on their risk tier.
  • Analysts need their own coverage. Individual AI Safety Analysts should consider professional indemnity insurance for their consulting activities.
  • No reliance by third parties. Nothing on this page provides client organizations or third parties with insurance cover or a right to make a claim.

5. Earnings & Income Disclaimer

EARNINGS VARY AND ARE NOT GUARANTEED

CSOAI is pre-launch and publishes no earnings figures for AI Safety Analysts. Any historical marketing references to typical hourly rates were illustrative and have been removed. When the analyst marketplace is live, rate data will be published as measured, anonymised aggregates. Users should understand:

  • Earnings are not guaranteed. Income depends on individual effort, skill, market demand, location, and other factors outside CSOAI's control.
  • No rates are currently published. CSOAI does not quote hourly rates. Any third-party figures you may encounter are not from CSOAI and should not be relied upon.
  • Results vary significantly. Some analysts may earn more or less than quoted figures depending on their expertise, availability, and market conditions.
  • Training or participation does not guarantee employment. While we facilitate connections between analysts and organizations, we do not guarantee job placement.
  • Market conditions change. Demand for AI Safety Analysts may fluctuate based on regulatory changes, economic conditions, and technology evolution.

6. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW:

  • CSOAI LTD shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our services.
  • Organizations are solely responsible for the safety, compliance, and operation of their AI systems, regardless of any measurement card or training record they hold.
  • CSOAI's total liability for any claim shall not exceed the fees paid by you to CSOAI in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
  • We are not liable for regulatory penalties, fines, or enforcement actions taken against attested organizations.
