Certified: The IAPP AIGP Audio Course

This episode explains why AI governance must include careful review of vendor contracts and licensing terms before deployment, because legal and operational exposure often hides in clauses that technical teams overlook. You will learn how contract language can affect data rights, confidentiality, liability allocation, audit access, security commitments, model improvement rights, service levels, and termination options, while licensing terms can restrict how outputs are used, whether fine-tuning is allowed, and who bears responsibility for downstream misuse. For the AIGP exam, the important lesson is that governance does not stop at technical evaluation or privacy review. A well-chosen tool can still become a bad deployment decision if contractual terms undermine oversight, shift risk unfairly, or permit uses that conflict with the organization’s legal and ethical obligations. In real practice, strong governance means reviewing not only what the AI can do, but also what the vendor is allowed to do with your data, how problems are handled, and whether the agreement supports defensible deployment.
