Not counted on this board

8 named documents fell outside what this board reads once we had read them; their reasons follow. They are tallied, never scored as answers.

Slack, Main Services Agreement: the stored read (3,580 chars) is Slack's legal navigation shell: a list of agreement links with no Main Services Agreement text
Slack, Legal: Slack terms & policies index: a list of links to Slack's legal documents, no terms text
Wire, Legislation and Compliance: Wire's legal landing page (3,100 chars): a short summary and links to its documents, no terms on customer data
Cisco (Webex), Offer Descriptions and Supplemental Terms: Cisco's offer descriptions index: a list of links to per-product terms, no Webex data terms text
Troop Messenger, Terms of Service: the stored read is Troop Messenger's marketing home page, not its Terms of Service
Symphony, Legal, Privacy, Compliance: Symphony's legal page as read is a cookie-consent banner and links, no terms text
Salesforce (Slack's parent), Legal: Salesforce's legal landing page: a link list to agreements, no terms text on customer data
AWS Wickr: AWS Wickr product marketing page, no terms on customer data

Method

Each vendor's own published terms were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row).

For every document, four questions were answered from the vendor's own words: who owns the business's data, vendor keeps aggregated or anonymised use, training AI on the business's data, export at exit.

Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the document read does not address the question.

A vendor with several documents reads 'varies' where they disagree.

13 vendors, 19 documents.
