“If you choose to give us any ideas, know-how, algorithms, code contributions, suggestions, enhancement requests, recommendations or any other feedback for our products or services (collectively, “Feedback”), you acknowledge and agree that GitHub will have a royalty-free, fully pa…”
Feedback provided during Beta Preview (which could include code, algorithms, or technical know-how) is subject to an extremely broad, irrevocable, perpetual, sublicensable, commercially exploitable license with no compensation to the user.
“ Ownership; Restrictions: The technology and software underlying the Service or distributed in connection therewith are the property of Suno, its affiliates, and its licensors (the "Software"). You agree not to copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, reverse…”
“ GitHub and our licensors, vendors, agents, and/or our content providers retain ownership of all intellectual property rights of any kind related to the Website and Service. We reserve all rights that are not expressly granted to you under this Agreement or by law. The look and f…”
“use the Services (and any Output or Voice Model) to create, develop or improve any competing products or services or to power, enable or train other artificial intelligence and machine learning models, tools or technologies;”
Users are prohibited from using outputs or Voice Models to train competing AI/ML systems or build competing products, significantly restricting downstream use of generated content.
“In addition, for Individual subscribers only: GitHub may use Copilot interaction data — including prompts (inputs), s uggestions (outputs), and code snippets generated during Copilot sessions — to train and improve AI models. This training helps improve code suggestions for all C…”
Individual (Free/Pro/Pro+) subscribers' prompts, outputs, and code snippets are used for AI model training by default. Opt-out is available but must be actively exercised.
“We use certain User Activity Information, Submissions, Interactive Chat Information, and other Content to improve our Services, product offerings, promotional activity, and business, including to train and enhance the models that power our Services as it is in our legitimate inte…”
Suno explicitly uses user Submissions, Interactive Chat Information (including prompts), and other Content to train and enhance its AI models, justified under 'legitimate interests' with no opt-out mechanism described for this use.
“It is your responsibility to assess what is appropriate for the situation and implement appropriate safeguards.”
The document places responsibility for assessing appropriateness of use entirely on the user but does not explicitly restrict or permit commercial use of outputs. No affirmative commercial use restriction or permission is stated.
“use the Services (and any Output or Voice Model) to create, develop or improve any competing products or services or to power, enable or train other artificial intelligence and machine learning models, tools or technologies;”
Users are prohibited from using Outputs or Voice Models to train any other AI/ML models or tools. This restricts legitimate downstream AI development use cases and is broader than a simple non-compete.
“GitHub and third parties use social media cookies to show you ads and content based on your social media profiles and activity on GitHub’s websites. This ensures that the ads and content you see on our websites and on social media will better reflect your interests. This also ena…”
Third parties can use data collected on GitHub to improve their own products on entirely separate websites, extending data use well beyond the GitHub platform context.
“You acknowledge that Suno may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including the maximum period of time that data or other content will be retained by the Service and the maximum storage space that will be allotted on Suno's or its third-part…”
Suno can delete all user Submissions and Outputs upon account inactivity or at any time it changes its retention practices, with no defined notice period and no obligation to notify users. Users risk permanent loss of their content.
“When a school or employer supplies your GitHub account, they assume the role of Data Controller for most Personal Data used in our Services. This enables them to: Manage and administer your GitHub account, including adjusting privacy settings. Access and utilize your Person…”
Users on organization-provisioned accounts have significantly reduced privacy protections — their employer or school can access content, files, and usage data and adjust privacy settings.
“ Refunds and Cancellations: Payments made by you hereunder are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Suno.”
