Corrections

What we got wrong, and what we changed

Each Terms Watch edition lists corrections to the one before it, apart from vendor changes and never counted as one. They are collected here. If you find a cited fact that does not reproduce, email us; we will check it, list it here and refund your purchase (see refunds).

12 Oct 2026 edition, rebuilt on 15 Oct 2026

Our own review of the first print of this edition found errors. One change was false: the Cohere API’s IP indemnity showed as moving from Yes to Not stated, because a long contract was dropped from the search. Four matrix changes had been accepted on 2 of 3 model votes, when the method requires 3. Three changes found in newly tracked documents read as that week’s news, though they were months old. We fixed the method and rebuilt the edition. The 12 Oct sample on this site is the rebuilt edition.

None of the documents behind these values changed, so they are our corrections, not vendor changes.
