5.2. We do not guarantee that conclusions drawn from synthetic data will precisely reflect real-world behaviours or outcomes. Users of synthetic data understand that:
- The data is approximated and intended for research and analytical purposes.
- Decisions based on synthetic data remain the sole responsibility of the entity using the insights.
- Updates and Amendments
6.1. We reserve the right to modify this section of our Terms and Conditions to reflect evolving best practices in synthetic data usage.
