Who is responsible for uploaded documents?

Overview

Users are responsible for ensuring they have the legal authority to upload, store and share any information submitted to SeraCase. SeraCase provides secure storage and AI-assisted organization but does not determine whether uploaded content is legally permissible.

Why this feature exists

Uploads can include sensitive third-party information. Clear responsibility helps users stay aligned with court orders, confidentiality duties, and the Terms of Service.

Step-by-step

1. 1

   Upload only what you are authorized to use

   Confirm you have the legal right to store and process the documents before using Add Documents.

2. 2

   Review the Terms and Privacy Policy

   The Terms of Service explain your representations about uploaded content. The Privacy Policy explains how SeraCase processes what you choose to upload.

Best practices

• Do not upload sealed or restricted materials unless you are entitled to process them.
• When working with counsel, confirm what materials are appropriate to store in your workspace.

Productivity tips

• Use one case per matter so authorized materials stay organized and easier to review.

Common mistakes

• Assuming SeraCase reviews every upload for legal permissibility — it does not.
