SaaS Agreement Review: Read the Subscription Before You Commit.

Check who owns your data and whether the vendor may use it to train AI models; how and when the subscription auto-renews and how much notice cancelling needs; how far prices can rise at renewal; what the uptime commitment is and whether the only remedy is a small credit; how liability is capped; and how you get your data back when you leave.

Some can, if the terms grant broad rights to use your data to "improve" or "train" their models. That’s a real concern for sensitive business data. We flag training and data-usage clauses and check them against privacy-grade standards like the CCPA.

Caps are normal, but a cap of "one month of fees" offers almost no protection if the vendor loses your data or suffers a breach. Caps around 12 months of fees are more common. We highlight the cap and whether it leaves you exposed.

Many SaaS contracts renew automatically unless you cancel within a set window, sometimes 60–90 days before the term ends. Miss the deadline and you’re locked in for another full term. We surface the exact notice window so you don’t miss it.

A fair contract spells out how you export your data and how long the vendor keeps (or deletes) it after termination. We flag missing data-export and deletion terms so you’re not stranded.

A cap equal to the fees paid in the previous 12 months is common, often with higher caps or carve-outs for data breaches, confidentiality and indemnities. A cap of one month’s fees, or one with no carve-outs, is a flag.

Only what the contract says. Look for a right to export your data in a usable format, a period to do so after termination, and deletion afterwards. The report flags a missing export right.

Many online terms allow changes by posting an update. Ask for changes to apply only at renewal, with notice, or not to reduce your rights during a paid term.

Only if the contract allows it, and many now include broad “improve our services” language that can cover model training. The report flags that language and suggests an opt-out or a prohibition.

Find the notice window, put the date in your calendar, and ask for a renewal reminder obligation on the vendor. The report flags the window so you can diarise it.

A SaaS contract review checks who owns and can use your data, including for training models, the liability cap compared with your real risk, uptime commitments and service credits, auto-renewal and cancellation notice, price increases at renewal, whether the vendor can change terms by posting updates, and how you export and delete data at the end. ClauseAudit's automated review checks each of these.

Look for who owns your data and whether the vendor may use it to improve services or train models, the liability cap, the uptime SLA, renewal and cancellation terms, price increase limits, and whether the vendor can change terms unilaterally. Also confirm you can export your data in a usable format when you leave. ClauseAudit's automated review flags each of these.
