“ 18. Reservation of Rights and Feedback. Except as expressly provided under these Terms, Microsoft does not grant you ”
“YOU GRANT US A NONEXCLUSIVE, WORLDWIDE, ROYALTY-FREE, IRREVOCABLE, SUBLICENSABLE, AND FULLY PAID-UP RIGHT TO ACCESS, COLLECT, USE, PROCESS, STORE, DISCLOSE AND TRANSMIT ANY DATA, INFORMATION, CONTENT, RECORDS OR FILES (“ CONTENT ”) THAT YOU LOAD, SUBMIT, TRANSMIT TO OR ENTER INTO…”
The license grant over user inputs is irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and sublicensable—meaning Cohere retains these rights even if the user terminates their account. The scope is extremely broad.
“ iii. Bing Places. When you provide your Data or Your Content to Bing Places, you grant Microsoft a worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, save, modify, aggregate, promote, transmit, display, and distribute your Data and Your Content (including intellectual property r…”
“All right, title and interest, including intellectual property rights, in the Cohere Solution, the source code in the software we use to provide the Cohere Solution (the “ Software ”) and all other materials provided by us hereunder, and any updates, adaptation, translation, cust…”
Cohere claims sole ownership of the Cohere Solution and 'all other materials provided by us hereunder' including derivative works. It is ambiguous whether AI-generated outputs are 'materials provided by' Cohere and thus owned by Cohere rather than the user.
“ As part of our efforts to improve and develop our products, we may use your data to develop and train our AI models. Learn more here .”

Cohere uses Trial and Research user inputs and outputs for model training/improvement under 'legitimate interests' rather than consent, giving users limited ability to object. Paid/Enterprise users may have different treatment but this is not clarified here.
“ b. The software is licensed, not sold, and Microsoft reserves all rights to the software not expressly granted by Microsoft, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. This license does not give you any right to, and you may not: ”
“you further represent and warrant to and covenant with Cohere that you will not (and will not attempt to) directly or indirectly: disable, overly burden, impair, or otherwise interfere with servers or networks connected to the Cohere Solution (e.g., a denial of service att…”
Commercial exploitation of the Cohere Solution itself is prohibited without prior written permission, which significantly restricts resale, white-labelling, or embedding scenarios.
“ Rights. You have the right to (i) know what personal data we collect, use, disclose, “share”, and sell, (ii) delete your personal data, (iii) correct your personal data, (iv) restrict the use and disclosure of your sensitive data, (v) receive a copy of your personal data, and (v…”

“ f. Support. Support for some Services is available at https://support.microsoft.com and certain Services may offer separate or additional customer support, subject to additional terms. Support may not be available for preview or beta versions of features or Services. Availabilit…”
“EXCEPT FOR ANY SPECIFIC WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS PROVIDED IN AN APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW”
Warranty and other protections may differ for users with a separate Subscription Agreement (typically paid/enterprise tiers), but the specific differences are not disclosed in this document.
