LinkSquares
AI-powered contract lifecycle management with automated clause extraction, AI-assisted redlining, risk scoring, and contract generation.
LinkSquares is an AI-powered contract lifecycle management platform designed for legal teams, procurement professionals, and business stakeholders who need to accelerate contract review and reduce legal risk. The platform automates the extraction of key clauses from contracts, applies intelligent risk scoring to flag potential exposure, and surfaces critical terms for negotiation—eliminating the manual work of clause-by-clause review. Beyond extraction, LinkSquares offers AI-assisted redlining capabilities that suggest edits and generate contract language, helping teams standardize terms and enforce playbooks across deals. The tool integrates with common workflows and document repositories, making it practical for teams managing high contract volumes or complex negotiations. Organizations typically use LinkSquares to shorten contract turnaround times, improve consistency in deal terms, and reduce the legal overhead of routine reviews—allowing in-house counsel to focus on strategic negotiation rather than repetitive analysis.

No training opt-out mechanism was identified in the legal documents.
High risk across multiple dimensions. Only use with public, non-sensitive data.
LinkSquares explicitly reserves the right to use Client Data in aggregated and anonymized form to 'train' its artificial intelligence algorithms and machine learning models. The TOS states LinkSquares can use Client Data 'to improve ('train') its artificial intelligence algorithms and machine learning models associated with the Software' during the Term and thereafter.
“to improve ('train') its artificial intelligence algorithms and machine learning models associated with the Software”
The license grant is extremely broad. Client irrevocably grants LinkSquares rights to use Client Data for internal research, benchmarking, product improvement, and AI training during and after the Term. The rights are perpetual for aggregated/anonymized use and include broad permissions for LinkSquares' business purposes.
“Client hereby irrevocably grants all such rights and permissions in or relating to Client Data: (a) to LinkSquares, during the Term as necessary or useful to perform the Services; (b) to LinkSquares during the Term and thereafter”
LinkSquares shares Client Data with third-party service providers, partners, resellers, and integrations. The TOS explicitly permits disclosure to service providers, partners for co-marketing, Third Party Resellers, and third-party integrations. Client Confidential Information can be shared with resellers.
“LinkSquares may share Client Confidential Information with a Third Party Reseller subject to Section 6 (Confidentiality). Additionally, Client acknowledges and agrees that Third Party Reseller may disclose Client personal data to LinkSquares”
While clients can request deletion within 90 days of termination, LinkSquares explicitly retains the right to keep one copy of Client Data indefinitely for 'archival, audit, disaster recovery, legal or regulatory purposes' and is not required to search archived backup files. This creates indefinite retention risk.
“LinkSquares (i) may retain one copy of Client Data solely for archival, audit, disaster recovery, legal or regulatory purposes and (ii) will not be required to search archived electronic back-up files”
Client Data ownership is retained by Client, but LinkSquares gains broad rights to use it. The Services, Software, and Materials are exclusively LinkSquares' property. Client retains ownership of Client Data but grants irrevocable rights to LinkSquares for use, training, and improvement purposes.
“All Client records and data uploaded onto the System by or on behalf of Client (the 'Client Data') are the property of Client as between the parties.”
LinkSquares commits to SOC 2 Type II audits and penetration testing annually, which is positive. However, the document references a separate Data Processing Addendum for GDPR, CCPA, and PIPEDA compliance rather than stating direct certifications. HIPAA compliance is not mentioned.
“LinkSquares shall, at a minimum, undergo independent third-party SOC 2 Type II audits and penetration testing on an annual basis.”
