Terms of Use

Last updated: November 1, 2026

Buyers and sellers are solely responsible for their data transactions and for their own legal and regulatory compliance.

These terms apply to your use of this website and of DLC's services, operated by DataLicense Co ("DLC", "we", "us"). By using the website, submitting a form, or accepting an introduction, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the website or our services.

1. What DLC does

DLC is a referral company. Our only service is to introduce companies that own data ("sellers" or "data owners") to potential buyers, such as AI labs ("buyers"), and buyers to sellers. DLC does not handle, negotiate, structure, process, approve or close any transaction. DLC does not hold, receive or process funds for any party and is not a party to any agreement between a buyer and a seller.

The content of this website is general information only. It is not an offer, and it is not legal, tax, financial or other professional advice.

2. DLC does not handle data

DLC does not own, access, verify, store, sell or transfer any customer datasets. Any data, samples or access that a seller chooses to provide is provided directly by the seller to the buyer, at their own risk and under their own agreements. Please do not send actual datasets, samples, personal information about other people, or confidential files to DLC through this website or otherwise.

3. Buyers and sellers are solely responsible

Buyers and sellers are solely responsible for their data transactions and for their own legal and regulatory compliance. Each party is solely responsible for:

DLC does not verify, and is not responsible for, any party's identity, rights, consents, representations, data, conduct or compliance.

4. Inquiries and introductions

Submitting an inquiry or referral does not create any agreement or obligation for you or for DLC, and DLC is not required to make any introduction. You agree that the information you submit is accurate and that you are authorised to share it.

Introductions to buyers are subject to a separate written referral agreement between DLC and the buyer. Nothing on this website is a substitute for that agreement.

5. Independent parties

DLC, buyers and sellers are independent parties. Nothing in these terms or in any introduction creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, employment or franchise relationship. DLC does not act as an agent, representative or adviser for any buyer or seller and has no authority to bind any of them.

6. Disclaimer: use at your own risk

Use of this website and of DLC's services is entirely at your own risk. DLC takes no responsibility for any outcome of using them.

No warranties

The website, its content, any introduction and DLC's services are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. This includes, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness or results. DLC makes no representation about any buyer, seller or data, and does not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, secure or without errors.

  • DLC makes no guarantee that an introduction will be made, that a deal will result, or of any outcome, revenue or other result.
  • DLC is not responsible for the data itself, or for the conduct, payment, data handling, security or legal compliance of any buyer, seller or other party.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DLC and its owners, officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates will not be liable for any claims, damages or losses of any kind arising from or related to:

  • the conduct, acts or omissions of any buyer, seller or other third party;
  • any transaction, negotiation, agreement or dealings between buyers and sellers, or any failure to reach one;
  • any data, including its ownership, rights, quality, accuracy, legality, security, use, loss or disclosure;
  • any dispute between parties, non-payment, or breach of any agreement or of any law;
  • any regulatory inquiry, investigation, enforcement action or penalty involving any party; or
  • your use of, or inability to use, the website or DLC's services.

This applies to direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary and punitive damages, and to lost profits, lost revenue, lost business opportunity, and loss or corruption of data, however caused, under any theory of liability, even if DLC was advised of the possibility of such damages. Where liability cannot be excluded by law, it is limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Your sole and exclusive remedy for any dissatisfaction with the website or DLC's services is to stop using them.

8. Indemnification

You, and each buyer and seller, agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless DLC and its owners, officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal costs) arising from or related to:

  • your data, or any data you provide, receive, license, buy or sell;
  • any transaction or dealings between you and any other party;
  • your conduct, or your breach of these terms or of any agreement;
  • your failure to comply with any law or regulation, including privacy, data protection and intellectual property laws; or
  • any claim by a third party, including a regulator or a person whose data is involved.

9. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release and waive all claims against DLC and its owners, officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates, known or unknown, arising from or related to any dealings, disputes or transactions between you and any buyer, seller or other party introduced through DLC. If a law limits releases of unknown claims, you waive the benefit of that law to the extent it can be waived.

10. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the website, including by attempting to disrupt it, access it without authorisation, or submit false, unlawful or harmful content.

11. Intellectual property

The website, its content and the DLC name and logo belong to DataLicense Co. You may not copy or reuse them without permission, except as allowed by law.

12. Severability and changes

If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the rest remains in effect. We may update these terms; the date at the top shows when they last changed, and continued use of the website means you accept the updated terms.
