Information security is at the centre of everything we do. LawVu is committed to maintaining a trust and compliance program that aligns with the needs of your organization, including those associated with any AI powered tools supplied as part of our services.
In addition to our Trust Centre pillars, Security, Reliance, Privacy and Compliance, LawVu uses and designs AI powered tools following its Principles for AI.
Our security and privacy practices that apply to AI powered tools will be updated as these services evolve. LawVu will ensure that our security and privacy program align with industry best practices and adheres to all applicable laws.
LawVu AI Powered Products:
When LawVu refers to “LawVu AI Powered Products”, we mean functionality provided in the LawVu Services such as AI product features or automation capabilities.
Feature | Partner Technology |
Contract Extraction | Zuva DocAI |
Bulk Contract Import | Zuva DocAI |
Invoice Extraction | Microsoft Document Intelligence |
Workspace Intelligence | Microsoft Azure OpenAI, Document Intelligence, Content understanding. |

In addition to LawVu’s existing security and privacy practices, LawVu is aligned with the new ISO42001 standard for AI Management Systems and is actively pursuing independent audit and certification.
LawVu has also adopted AI Principles for the use, development and implementation of AI tools.
LawVu is using third-party services as set out in the table above to power the AI Powered Products available in the LawVu Services.
No, neither directly nor indirectly. We do not use your data to train any models or allow our third-party service providers to train their models using your data. Your inputs and outputs to the AI service are also not used for training purposes.
We do not submit your data to our third-party service providers for abuse monitoring or review.
AI Powered Products are a proven tool to increase efficiency, provide valuable insights and scale legal services - all with less effort. LawVu wants to support you to engage with this technology. However, we understand that these are new technologies, and our customers have different adoption rates and risk profiles. As such, we will provide you with a clear and explicit opportunity to opt into our AI powered products that use Generative AI technologies. We have decided to enable some AI features that do not have a Generative AI component (e.g. invoice extraction) by default. This decision has been made after full review against LawVu’s extensive security and privacy and data practices.
LawVu is a cloud-based company and primarily runs on Microsoft Azure. LawVu’s engineering team has helped to closely test many of Microsoft’s new technologies and LawVu’s security and privacy teams determined that the visibility we had into their product development was in accordance with preexisting thorough and regular due diligence of this long-time service provider. Microsoft provides extensive information to all users of its AI product, including the Microsoft Responsible AI Standard, which meets our goals of providing transparent information on the use of AI tools to our customers.
We selected Zuva because of their experienced team of machine learning engineers, knowledge experts and leadership who have previously built award winning contract analysis software that is trusted by the majority of the AM Law 100. We host Zuva’s DocAI within our Azure environment, which ensures that we retain control and governance over our customer’s data and can provide Zuva’s DocAI in accordance with our existing security posture and meet our customer’s data privacy requirements. We integrate the Zuva DocAI model deeply within our existing user interface and control the user experience.
Organization Admins will be able to opt-in for new LawVu features and control the use permissions for their users. Please contact your Customer Success Contact to discuss.
You can discontinue use. Our AI powered products do not use your data for any purpose other than to provide the service to you. Interactions with our AI powered tools are transactional and do not retain your data.
Your User Data is stored in your designated Data Stack Location, as specified in your SaaS Agreement with LawVu. Certain AI-powered products, such as Workspace Intelligence and Billing Guidelines, may process data outside of your selected Data Stack Location, as outlined in our Subprocessor List, for the purpose of generating outputs. However, any User Data processed in this context is stored only transiently and solely to deliver the relevant services to you.
Your company's data remains logically segregated from any other data and is not used to train public models. Your company's data is kept safe and secure by LawVu’s Information Security program. Please see our Security Pack for more information.
LawVu maintains a comprehensive data privacy program, including a commitment to GDPR and CCPA compliance which is audited by a third party. LawVu ensures that its practices are evolving with developing privacy and security laws and standards that apply to AI. LawVu will continue to complete privacy data impact assessments for all new AI features and functionality.
LawVu’s use of AI systems inherits the same application security and privacy controls as our hosted software and use of third-party service providers. Our standard authentication and authorization controls are applied prior to any processing being conducted by AI systems. All communication continues to use encryption for data in transit and customer data continues to be encrypted at rest.
All users will be required to acknowledge our Acceptable Use Policy for using AI Powered Products that rely on generative AI technologies. These terms also form part of your SaaS Agreement with LawVu.
LawVu has Data Processing Agreements with all of our subprocessors, and those providing us with AI systems are no exception. By contract and by law, these subprocessors must maintain regulated standards for privacy and security.
No. Due to the sensitive nature of our customers’ data, LawVu has a full exemption from Microsoft’s standard terms allowing Microsoft to monitor use of their Azure OpenAI.
