What this means for you
  • Ollama's terms explicitly protect your inputs from training use — the policy is affirmatively favorable on this point.
  • Your outputs and prompts are explicitly yours — Ollama's terms include affirmatively protective IP language.
  • Data handling is conditional — 1 privacy or retention clause warrant review before using Ollama at scale.

Derived from AI-enriched analysis of the verified findings below — informational only, not legal advice.

How to read this page: Overall risk rates what Ollama'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.

Conflicting provisions (3)
  • Clause A states that if any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect, while Clause B introduces an ambiguous 'exception of any of the provisions' to its severability rule, implying that for some provisions, the outcome of unenforceability might differ, creating confusion about the universal application of severability.

    " These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Ollama regarding our services. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision does not constitute a waiver. The exercise of any remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms. You may not assign these Terms without our consent."
    " Arbitration: Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of our services shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall take place in San Francisco, California. Payment of all filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. With the exception of any of the provisions in these Terms, if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply."
    Within one document
  • Clause A states that data may be processed if specific consent is given, but Clause B explicitly prohibits knowingly collecting personal information from anyone under 18, creating a direct conflict for minors attempting to provide consent.

    " Consent: We may process your data if you have given us specific consent to use your personal information in a specific purpose."
    " Our services are intended for users aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. By using the Service, you represent that you are at least 13 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Service. If we learn we have collected such information, we will delete it promptly."

  • Clause A states data may be processed with specific consent, but Clause B prohibits knowingly collecting data from anyone under 18 and mandates its deletion, creating a conflict for users aged 13-17 who are permitted to use the service with parental consent.

Cross-clause notes

Cross-reference

Two verified clauses intersect on the same subject matter: the Privacy Policy, § 6 (Data Retention) addresses how long content is retained, and the Privacy Policy, § 2 (How Ollama Works) addresses use of content in connection with model training or service improvement. Both clauses are in force at the same time — read them together.

Ambiguity — Caution

Verified retention clauses point in different directions: the Privacy Policy, § 6 (Data Retention) describes broad or open-ended retention, while the Privacy Policy, § 6 (Data Retention) describes deletion or erasure. Which clause controls in a given situation is not resolved by the documents' text alone — this is surfaced as an ambiguity, treated as Caution.
