Professional and AI Disclaimer
Effective 2026-09-23.
This Disclaimer forms part of the Terms of Service (https://app.baseloom.app/?view=legal&doc=terms). It explains what the BaseLoom apps do and do not do, domain by domain. Each app links to the section that applies to it.
General
BaseLoom apps are software tools. They check the documents and data you provide against deterministic rules and reference tables, and return findings, evidence, draft letters and converted files. Every Output is a draft for a qualified professional to review before anyone relies on it, files it, sends it or acts on it. The apps support, but do not replace, a licensed professional such as an attorney, certified public accountant or chartered accountant, enrolled agent, customs broker, PCI Qualified Security Assessor, actuary, physician, certified coder or compliance officer. Using an app does not create a professional, fiduciary or advisory relationship with us.
Reference data changes. Tax rates, thresholds, deadlines, tariff and code tables, sanctions and restricted-party lists, and regulatory text may be out of date, incomplete or different in your jurisdiction on the day you use an app. Each app's Method tab lists the values it relies on and the settings you should confirm. An app that finds nothing has not proved that nothing is wrong: it only checked the rules it contains against the data it was given.
Legal
Apps that review contracts, leases, court dockets, data processing agreements, zoning rules or regulatory texts point out clauses, dates and gaps against a fixed checklist. They do not give legal advice, do not know the facts of your matter, and do not reflect every jurisdiction, court rule or recent case. Deadlines calculated by a docket app must be checked against the governing court rules and any order in the case by a lawyer admitted in that jurisdiction. Draft letters and notices should be reviewed by counsel before they are sent.
Tax and accounting
Apps covering sales tax, clean energy tax credits, cannabis Section 280E, state escheatment, vendor billing recovery, royalty statements and similar work apply published rules to your figures. They are not tax advice, a tax return, an audit, a review or an attest engagement, and they do not account for elections, rulings or facts they were not given. Rates and thresholds change often; confirm them for the relevant period and jurisdiction. A CPA, chartered accountant or enrolled agent should review any figure before it is filed, claimed or paid.
Healthcare
Apps for claims, chargemasters, pharmacy rebates, Business Associate Agreement review and HIPAA checks compare documents against coding, pricing and contract rules. They are not medical advice, clinical decision support, coding certification or a HIPAA compliance determination, and must not be used for patient care decisions. Do not upload protected health information unless a signed Business Associate Agreement is in place with us; otherwise use de-identified data. Code sets (such as CPT, ICD-10 and HCPCS) are owned by their publishers and may require your own licence.
Financial services
Apps covering securities filings (such as Form 13F and cybersecurity Form 8-K), FinCEN beneficial ownership reporting, HMDA fair lending, FCRA adverse action notices, GLBA, NACHA and SWIFT file checks, ERISA Form 5500 and payment data produce draft reports and file checks. They are not investment, securities, banking, credit or legal advice, and we are not a broker-dealer, investment adviser, consumer reporting agency or bank. Filings must be reviewed by the person legally responsible for them before submission. Fair lending and adverse action Outputs support a human review process and must not be used as the sole basis of a credit decision.
Employment
Apps covering EEO-1, NLRB, BIPA, TCPA consent and similar workplace and consumer-contact rules check records and draft documents against the rules they contain. They are not employment law advice and do not decide whether any practice is lawful. Outputs must not be used as the sole basis of hiring, firing, pay or other employment decisions about individuals. Local and state employment rules vary widely; confirm with employment counsel or an HR professional.
Export control and sanctions
Apps for ITAR and EAR classification support, the ITAR technical data gate, OFAC and other sanctions screening, and HTS customs classification help you organise evidence and spot likely issues. Screening is not clearance: a "no match" result does not mean a party or transaction is permitted, and a "match" is not a determination that it is prohibited. Classification suggestions are not a commodity jurisdiction, a CCATS, a binding ruling or a licence; decisions belong to your empowered official, trade compliance counsel or licensed customs broker. Lists change daily, so confirm results against the official current lists. Do not upload ITAR technical data, EAR-controlled technology or CUI.
Privacy
Apps that review data processing agreements, GDPR vendor terms, FERPA, CCPA and similar requirements compare documents against a checklist of common legal requirements. They are not legal advice and do not determine whether your processing is lawful, whether a transfer mechanism is valid or whether a breach must be notified. Privacy law differs by country and state and changes often. A privacy lawyer or your data protection officer should confirm the result.
Safety and environment
Apps covering OSHA 300 logs, EPA Tier II reporting, California Proposition 65, ADA website audits and similar rules check your records and draft forms or notices. They are not safety engineering, environmental, industrial hygiene or accessibility certification, and they do not inspect any site, product or substance. Thresholds and chemical lists change; confirm them with the regulator's current publications. An automated accessibility audit finds only some barriers and does not show that a site conforms to WCAG or the ADA.
Insurance
Apps that read insurance forms, policy text, certificates and ACORD data extract fields and compare them against requirements you set. They are not insurance advice, a coverage opinion or a binding of cover, and we are not an insurance broker, agent or adjuster. Whether a loss is covered depends on the full policy, endorsements and law; confirm with a licensed insurance professional or the insurer.
Government contracting
Apps for CMMC, NIST SP 800-171 and 800-172 practices, FDA 510(k) and 21 CFR Part 11, and other government requirements map your documents against published control lists. They are not a CMMC assessment, a certification, an FDA submission review or an authorisation, and we are not a C3PAO, a registered practitioner or a regulator. Do not upload Controlled Unclassified Information; the Service is ordinary commercial cloud and is not FedRAMP or GCC High authorised. Final assessments and submissions must be made by the responsible official or an authorised assessor.
Standards and trademarks
Apps read and produce data in formats such as ASC X12, HL7, SWIFT MT and ISO 20022, ACORD, NACHA, FIX, PCI DSS and NIST publications, and translate legacy formats such as AS/400, COBOL copybooks and Baan exports. These names and marks belong to their owners. BaseLoom is not affiliated with, certified by or endorsed by X12, HL7 International, SWIFT, ACORD, Nacha, the FIX Trading Community, NIST, the PCI Security Standards Council or any other standards body, unless we say so expressly. A file that passes an app's checks is not certified as conforming, and your trading partners' own implementation guides may add rules the app does not check.
Automated support
Replies to support emails and tickets are drafted by an automated assistant using an AI model (Anthropic's Claude) and say so. They are generated from the text of your message and our documentation, may contain mistakes, and are not professional advice. They do not change the Terms or your rights unless confirmed by the proprietor. You can ask for a human at any time by saying so in your reply.
