| Plan and modules | Public claim only | Contracting entity is Ansarada Pty Limited (ACN 131 899 397). Terms updated 17 June 2026 plus Order Form and an incorporated DPA.

Ask AiDA is on paid plans; a free room exists without the full Intelligence suite.

Microsoft Azure (Zurich, Johannesburg, Dubai) and Oracle Cloud (Jeddah) are additional hosting options. DPA: Personal Data is stored in the customer-designated region; Ansarada may transfer it outside that region in performance of the Services but says it continues to be stored in the designated region. | Name the hosting provider and region on our Order Form (Sydney AWS vs Azure/Oracle), and confirm backups stay in that region. | [Ansarada and GDPR](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/gdpr); [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| AiDA and Intelligence features | Public claim only | Ask AiDA is a RAG assistant inside the room: semantic search, sourced answers, Q&A similar-question drafting (≥80% similarity), summaries of PDFs up to 200 pages/50 MB. Admins control who can use AiDA; it follows room permissions. Other Intelligence: AI-Sort, AI-Translate, AI-Redact, AI-Predict (bidder engagement, not the same as AiDA). Remote document self-destruct and watermarking on the VDR. | Which Intelligence features will be on for our rooms, and is Ask AiDA limited to Data Room Administrators? | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada Intelligence / AI-Predict](https://www.ansarada.com/features/ai); [Secure Virtual Data Room for Transactions](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/transactions-security) |
| Australia | Public claim only | Australian company (Sydney HQ, founded 2005). AWS Sydney is a listed hosting location. Terms: NSW law and NSW courts for customers in Australia, Asia Pacific or Japan. Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and Australian Privacy Principles are referenced. Offices include Sydney plus London, Amsterdam, Johannesburg, Ho Chi Minh City, Chicago and Berlin. | Will our rooms be hosted in AWS Sydney, and will support from Vietnam/US/UK still access room content? | [LLM Info Page — Ansarada](https://www.ansarada.com/llm-info); [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ansarada About](https://www.ansarada.com/about) |
| Pricing | Public claim only | No public list prices. Quote and demo forms. Free data room to start; Ask AiDA and full Intelligence on upgrade/paid plans. Availability Guarantee 99% monthly with credits as exclusive remedy. CPI-linked fee adjustment language exists in the Terms. | Provide an itemised quote covering rooms, storage, Intelligence/AiDA, Vault archive, support and any CPI or renewal uplift. | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida) |
| SSO, audit and permissions | Public claim only | GDPR page: SSO and MFA supported. Transaction security page: full audit trails, granular permissions, watermarking, expiry. Ask AiDA respects existing room permissions. Non-Ansarada applications may be connected at customer's risk (Terms 8(a)(iv)). | Demonstrate Entra SSO/MFA, guest offboarding, and that a bidder cannot obtain answers via AiDA from documents they cannot open. | [Ansarada and GDPR](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/gdpr); [Secure Virtual Data Room for Transactions](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/transactions-security); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Support locations | Public claim only | Subprocessors for support: Ansarada UK Ltd (London), Ansarada US Inc. (Chicago), Ansarada Vietnam Limited (Ho Chi Minh City, Application Support). Help Centre at help.ansarada.com. No public severity SLA found besides Availability Guarantee credits. | What are contractual Sev-1/Sev-2 times, and will Vietnam application support staff see our room content? | [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Quality and citations | Public claim only | Ask AiDA article: answers linked to source documents; vendor says it tells you if the answer is not in the room and does not fabricate. Q&A drafts still require human review and approval. No independent hallucination benchmark was published. 99.98% availability is a platform claim, not an AI quality metric. | Show citation accuracy and missed-document rates on a sample of our deal files, including Australian-style agreements. | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada and GDPR](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/gdpr) |
| Task fit | Not confirmed | Fit for permissioned Q&A, document search and summarisation inside a deal room. Not a licensed primary-law citator. Redaction, translation and sort are separate Intelligence tools. Court/affidavit work remains lawyer-led. Guest users only see authorised content if permissions are correctly set. | For each deal, who may use AiDA, is web/general knowledge off, and will Q&A drafts always be lawyer-approved before send? | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada Intelligence / AI-Predict](https://www.ansarada.com/features/ai) |
| Bidders and guests | Not confirmed | The product is a deal VDR used by bidders and advisors, not a consumer chatbot. Guests with AiDA access receive answers only from documents they may view (vendor claim). Customer warrants it has notices/consents for sharing content with Guest Users. No Australian client-disclosure template for AI use was found. | Will bidder-side AiDA be off by default, and what notice do we give counterparties that AI search is running in the room? | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida) |
| Model provider | Not confirmed | Ask AiDA is described as LLM + RAG. The published subprocessor list names AWS, Azure and Oracle for hosting, and Ansarada affiliates for support — it does not name OpenAI, Anthropic or another foundation-model vendor. 'No documents transmitted externally' (article) is a vendor claim that needs reconciling with the unnamed LLM path. | Name every model provider, endpoint region and whether inference stays in our chosen AWS/Azure/Oracle region. | [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida) |
| Subprocessors | Public claim only | Published list: AWS (Sydney and other regions), Microsoft Azure (Zurich, Johannesburg, Dubai), Oracle Cloud (Jeddah), Ansarada UK Ltd, Ansarada US Inc., Ansarada Vietnam Limited. 60 days' notice of new subprocessors via site update; objection on data-protection grounds; exclusive remedy is terminating the Order Form. DPA requires flow-down no less protective than the Addendum. | Confirm this list is complete for AiDA inference (not only hosting), and that we will receive the 60-day notice. | [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Training on room content | Public claim only | Ask AiDA article and product page: room content is not used to train AI models / not used to train general AI models. That is marketing, not a clause in the 17 June 2026 Legal Terms extract. DPA treats Feedback and Usage Data as Ansarada-controlled for Business Operations. Privacy policy 'training' language concerns website personal data and support messages, not a room-content training prohibition. | Put a no-training clause in the Order Form covering prompts, documents, embeddings, Q&A drafts and logs, including any model provider. | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ansarada Privacy Policy](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/privacy) |
| Feedback and usage data | Public claim only | Feedback is excluded from Confidential Information. DPA 2.4: Feedback and Usage Data, if personal, are processed by Ansarada as independent controller for Business Operations. Scope of 'Usage Data' for AiDA sessions is not defined on the AiDA pages. | Is AiDA session content excluded from Feedback/Usage Data, and can we disable any improvement channel? | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Retention of AiDA sessions and rooms | Public claim only | Ask AiDA article: conversations cleared at end of session and never archived. Room/document retention follows the deal room and Vault/Always products. DPA: return or destroy Personal Data on written request unless law requires longer. Archived backups need not be immediately erased. | Confirm session non-retention in the contract, backup lag, and Vault archive period after the deal closes. | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ansarada Vault](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/transactions-vault) |
| Deletion and return | Public claim only | On written request, content is destroyed or returned for an additional fee; invoices must be paid first. Backups may persist under confidentiality until destruction. DPA: certify deletion on request. Remote self-destruct is a VDR feature for distributed copies. | Matter-level deletion of AiDA indexes/embeddings, backup purge time, and a deletion certificate without a return fee dispute. | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Secure Virtual Data Room for Transactions](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/transactions-security) |
| Vendor staff access | Public claim only | Support affiliates in UK, US and Vietnam are subprocessors with access to Your Content. DPA: employees under confidentiality. Ask AiDA article does not describe a customer-visible access log for Ansarada staff. | When can Ansarada or Vietnam application-support staff read our room or AiDA prompts, and is that access logged to us? | [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida) |
| SSO, MFA and room permissions | Public claim only | SSO and MFA supported. Granular room permissions, watermarking, expiry. Admins control AiDA access. Users must accept AUP. Ansarada may remove a user at the employer's request. | Enable SSO-only and MFA, and show guest disable within the hour plus an AiDA permission-wall test. | [Ansarada and GDPR](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/gdpr); [Secure Virtual Data Room for Transactions](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/transactions-security); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida); [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Encryption | Public claim only | DPA Appendix 2: AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2 in transit.

| Assurance | Public claim only | ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (article 13 Jan 2026); ISO 27001 since 2009 (GDPR page). Ask AiDA article also claims SOC 2 Type II for Ansarada. AWS's own SOC/ISO are listed separately and are not Ansarada's report. Reports were not inspected. | Provide current ISO 27001:2022 certificate and SOC 2 Type II report scoped to Deals and AiDA, with exceptions. | [What ISO 27001 really means for your deal (13 Jan 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-iso27001-means-for-your-deal); [Ansarada and GDPR](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/gdpr); [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida) |

ACL rights preserved to the extent they cannot be excluded. | Execute the published DPA, confirm 2x cap covers confidentiality/privacy/security, and that AiDA is in scope. | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions) |
| Cross-border transfers | Public claim only | Customer picks storage region (Sydney available). DPA allows processing outside that region while storage remains. SCCs/IDTA for EEA/UK. Support in Vietnam, US and UK. Azure/Oracle regions are outside Australia even if we pick Sydney AWS for storage — confirm AiDA does not silently use another cloud. | Feature-by-feature map for storage, AiDA inference, backups and support access, for an APP 8 assessment. | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors); [Ansarada Privacy Policy](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/privacy) |

| Unilateral changes | Public claim only | AUP and Privacy Policy may be amended. Subprocessor changes: 60-day site update. Scheduled maintenance ≤12 hours/month with ≥24 hours' notice; updates must not materially diminish functionality. Trial services can be withdrawn. CPI-style fee language in Terms. | What notice before AiDA model or permission behaviour changes, and is auto-renewal off unless we confirm? | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [Ansarada Subprocessors](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/subprocessors) |

| Connectors | Public claim only | VDR is the system of record. Partner Marketplace and Non-Ansarada Applications exist; customer bears privacy/security risk. Intelligence features are in-platform. | List every marketplace/integration that will be on, and confirm unused stay off. | [Ansarada General Terms & Conditions (updated 17 June 2026)](https://www.ansarada.com/legal-policies/terms-conditions); [LLM Info Page — Ansarada](https://www.ansarada.com/llm-info) |
| Web search | Public claim only | Ask AiDA article: does not operate on public internet data; exclusively room content. Confirm this is a hard control, not a prompt instruction. | Can AiDA call the open web or a general LLM corpus, and how do we prove it is off? | [What is Ask AiDA?](https://www.ansarada.com/article/what-is-ask-aida); [Ask AiDA product page](https://www.ansarada.com/data-room/ask-aida) |
