“ 4.1 You are responsible for all Inputs you submit to our Services and corresponding Outputs. By submitting Inputs to our Services, you represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, and permissions that are necessary for us to process the Inputs under our Terms. Y…”
“ 1. Your Content and Ownership ”
“we grant you a revocable, non-transferable, and non-exclusive right to legally use this product and related services. All other rights not expressly authorized by these Terms are reserved by DeepSeek, and before exercising such rights, you must obtain written permission from…”
The terms do not explicitly assign ownership of generated outputs to users. Combined with DeepSeek's broad reservation of all non-expressly-granted rights, there is no clear statement that users own or receive an unrestricted license to their outputs.
“Content you publish as a public App is automatically made subject to the MIT License , which allows others to view, copy, modify, and distribute your code, on or off platform. Other users may “fork” your public Apps, which will provide them a copy of your App that they control. I…”
Publishing a public App automatically applies the MIT License to user code, which is an irrevocable permissive license allowing any third party to use, modify, and distribute the code commercially. Users may not be aware of this automatic licensing.
“To improve and develop the Services and to train and improve our technology, such as our machine learning models and algorithms. Including by monitoring interactions and usage across your devices, analyzing how people are using it, and training and improving our technology.”
User inputs and interactions are explicitly used to train AI models with no opt-out mechanism described in this section.
“Content published in public Apps may be used by Replit for improving the Service, including but not limited to developing or training large language models, both during and after the term of this agreement.”
Public App content can be used to train LLMs indefinitely, including after a user terminates their account. No opt-out mechanism is mentioned.
“ (4) Without DeepSeek's authorization, copying, transferring, leasing,”
“ Content on the Service originates from various sources and is made accessible for your use on the Service only. You acknowledge that your access and use of this content is at your own risk. You are not authorized to use such content outside of the Service, nor to download third…”
“the right to delete Personal Data you’ve provided to us, or that we’ve obtained about you;”
The policy mentions a deletion right but provides no information on actual retention periods, deletion timelines, or whether model weights trained on user data can be 'deleted'.
“Upon account deletion, we will delete your stored data in accordance with our data retention policy and applicable law.”
Deletion is deferred to an unspecified 'data retention policy' not included in these terms. Users cannot assess actual retention timelines from this document alone.
“and **Payment Personal Data** are not applicable to DeepSeek App.”
“If you prefer to not have others see your code, you can upgrade to make that code private. If you import code from GitHub and your repository is public, it will remain public by default on Replit. If you wish to import code from GitHub and your repository is private, you can upgr…”
Free-tier users have their code public by default, exposing potentially proprietary or sensitive code to all users. Privacy is a paid feature, creating a significant risk for free-tier users unaware of this default.
