5. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer
Ovation uses Claude (by Anthropic) to generate review responses, social posts, and SEO recommendations. These outputs are suggestions only.
You are solely responsible for reviewing, editing, and approving any AI-generated content before publishing it publicly. By posting a response or content, you confirm that it is accurate, appropriate, and compliant with the relevant platform's policies.
Ovation makes no warranty that AI-generated content is accurate, complete, or suitable for your specific situation. We are not liable for any consequences arising from content you choose to publish.
6. Intellectual Property
You retain ownership of your business data and any content you provide. By using Ovation, you grant us a limited licence to process your data solely to deliver the service.
