AI-generated solutions and production deployments
IMPORTANT: BuildForce uses experimental AI technology that is continuously evolving. While we strive for accuracy and reliability, AI models may produce unexpected, incorrect, or inappropriate outputs. BuildForce is not a substitute for professional consulting services in regulated fields such as legal, medical, or financial advising. You acknowledge and agree to the following:
- Experimental Technology: BuildForce utilizes experimental AI technology that may sometimes provide inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable recommendations. Use discretion and professional judgment before relying on, implementing, or deploying any AI-generated solutions. AI outputs should be reviewed by qualified personnel with relevant domain expertise.
- Approval Authority: You maintain sole responsibility for reviewing and approving all AI-generated solutions, recommendations, and deployments before they are applied to your production environments. BuildForce provides tools and suggestions, but YOU make the final decision.
- Production Environment Risk: Any changes deployed to your production SaaS platforms (Salesforce, ServiceNow, HubSpot, etc.) through BuildForce—whether manual or automated—are done at your own risk. You are responsible for testing in sandbox/staging environments before production deployment.
- No Warranty of AI Accuracy: AI-generated code, configurations, and recommendations are provided 'as is' without warranty of accuracy, completeness, or fitness for your specific use case. AI models may produce incorrect, incomplete, or inappropriate solutions that could negatively impact your systems.
- No Liability for Deployment Impact: BuildForce is NOT responsible for any damages, data loss, downtime, business interruption, or other harm resulting from deployments to your production environments, including but not limited to: broken integrations, configuration errors, data corruption, security vulnerabilities, compliance violations, or user access issues.
- Testing Requirement: You agree to thoroughly test all AI-generated solutions in non-production environments before deploying to production. BuildForce strongly recommends establishing rollback procedures and backup policies.
- Third-Party Platform Terms: Deployments to connected platforms (Salesforce, ServiceNow, HubSpot) are subject to those platforms' terms of service. You are responsible for compliance with all third-party platform policies.
- One-Click Remediation Risk: Features labeled 'one-click remediation' or similar automated deployment capabilities require your explicit confirmation before execution. By clicking to deploy, you accept full responsibility for the resulting changes.
- Monitoring and Rollback: While BuildForce provides monitoring and rollback capabilities, you are ultimately responsible for monitoring your production environments and maintaining your own backup and disaster recovery procedures.
Acceptable use policy
You may not use BuildForce to:
- Violate any laws, regulations, or third-party rights.
