You’re shipping an AI product in the British Virgin Islands. Data provenance, the claims you make and the contracts you sign this quarter set your exposure.
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 model is trained on, and what you say it can do
Those two facts sit behind every contract you sign. With no dedicated AI statute here, your exposure arrives through contract and data protection law instead.
What to work through, in order
Data provenance
The Data Protection Act follows a consent-led model, and there is no dedicated text and data mining exception. Provenance is largely a contractual question with your data sources.
Claims about the system
Misleading statements are addressed through consumer and general law rather than a dedicated regime. Claims made to customers elsewhere engage those jurisdictions’ rules.
Contracts and liability
Common-law principles govern allocation of liability, with wide freedom to contract. Enterprise buyers increasingly require IP indemnities covering training data.
