9. AI System Limitations and Disclaimers
Luminir uses artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms that are inherently probabilistic. You acknowledge and agree that: Luminir provides risk assessments, not definitive classifications. All verdicts represent the system's probabilistic evaluation and should be treated as advisory information, not statements of fact.
- The Service cannot and does not guarantee 100% accuracy in threat detection, classification, or analysis
- False positives may occur when the system identifies legitimate messages as potentially malicious
- False negatives may occur when the system fails to detect a genuine threat
- Detection capabilities may vary across languages, regions, and evolving threat landscapes
- AI model performance may change as models are updated or new data patterns emerge
- The Service may not recognize all phishing patterns, brand impersonations, or social engineering techniques
You agree to implement appropriate human oversight and review processes for all AI-generated security assessments. You shall not rely solely on automated classifications without implementing reasonable verification procedures. You remain solely responsible for validating AI outputs and making final decisions regarding message security.
10. Limitation of Liability
Luminir provides analysis results as informational guidance only. We do not guarantee 100% accuracy in threat detection.

This clause does not apply to the extent that it would override your statutory rights as a consumer.
12. AI Transparency and Automated Decision-Making
In compliance with applicable regulations including the UK AI regulatory framework, UK GDPR Article 22, and the EU AI Act (where applicable):

- You may contact us to understand the logic involved in automated decision-making
- Analysis results do not produce legal effects and are advisory in nature only
