Start here. These are the highest-risk verified clauses AIRIN found in the platform's own policy text.
Establishes an obligation to retain personal information for as long as necessary for service provision, legal and recordkeeping compliance, dispute resolution, and agreement enforcement, and notes that retention periods vary by information type and collection purpose.
Defines the scope of the policy, identifying the data controller (Forge Technologies Inc. and affiliates), the categories of covered activities (collect, use, share), the touchpoints covered (website, services, interactions), and states that use of services constitutes agreement to the described practices.

How to read this page: Overall risk rates what Forge's own policy terms mean for your prompts, outputs, and data. The benchmark bands below grade those same verified terms relative to peers — a platform in a risky-by-default category can rate HIGH risk and still grade STRONG against its peer set. Both trace to the cited findings.
