Thus, it falls to our clients to inform individuals about these practices.

9.2. Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation. Sembly AI may process any Personal Information we collect in accordance with the objectives stated in our Policy or as otherwise communicated to you. We commit not to use Personal Information in ways that diverge from these stated purposes without obtaining your subsequent consent. We take reasonable steps to limit the collection and usage of Personal Information to that which is relevant for the purposes for which it was collected, and to ensure that such Personal Information is reliable, accurate, complete and current.
