You’re shipping something new in the United Kingdom. Data provenance and the claims you make are where the exposure sits.

Information, not advice

This page is information, not legal advice about your matter. A retainer begins only when a lawyer confirms it.

Start here

Write down what your system does, and what you say it does

The gap between those two sentences is where most legal risk sits, and existing regulators apply their own rules to it. Closing it early costs very little.

What to work through, in order

Which regime already applies

The approach is sector-led rather than a single statute, with existing regulators applying their own rules. The ICO, FCA and MHRA have each issued guidance in their domains.

Data and privacy

UK GDPR requires a lawful basis, transparency, and a data protection impact assessment for high-risk processing. Automated decision-making with legal effects carries specific restrictions.

IP ownership in outputs

UK law recognises computer-generated works in limited circumstances, though the provision is under review. Contractual allocation remains the practical answer.
