operation of the Service Offering/Work according to their applications as envisioned by Provider’s

any Service Offering/Work or goods manufactured to the Subscriber’s design, (b) software or services
provided in accordance with the Subscriber’s instructions, or (c) Provider’s Service Offering/Work when
used in combination with any other devices, parts or software not provided by Provider hereunder.

grants Subscriber only a personal, non-exclusive license to access and use the software provided by
Provider with the Service Offering/Work purchased hereunder solely as necessary for Subscriber to enjoy
the benefit of the Service Offering/Work. A portion of the software may contain or consist of open-source
software, which Subscriber may use under the terms and conditions of the specific license under which the
open-source software is distributed. Subscriber agrees that it will be bound by all such license agreements.
Title to software remains with the applicable licensor(s). In connection with Subscriber’s use of the Service
Offering/Work, Provider may obtain, receive, or collect data or information, including data produced by the
Service Offering/Work. In such cases, Subscriber grants Provider a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free,
perpetual, non-revocable license to use, compile, distribute, display, store, process, reproduce, or create
derivative works of such data, or to aggregate such data for use in an anonymous manner, solely to
facilitate marketing, sales and R&D activities of Provider and its affiliates.

or indirectly, by any person or entity, to any government official, government employee, or employee of
any company owned in part by a government, political party, political party official, or candidate for any

otherwise constitute or have the purpose or effect of public or commercial bribery, acceptance of or
acquiescence in extortion, kickbacks or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining business or any
improper advantage, with respect to any of Subscriber’s activities related to this Service Offering
Agreement. Provider asks Subscriber to “Speak Up!” if aware of any violation of law, regulation or our Code
of Conduct (“Code of Conduct”) in relation to this Service Offering. See Integrity and compliance | Veralto
for a copy of the Code and for access to our Helpline portal.
12. Force Majeure.
Provider is excused from performance of its obligations under this Service Offering Agreement to the
extent caused by acts or omissions that are beyond its control, including but not limited to Government
embargoes, blockages, seizures or freeze of assets, delays or refusals to grant an export or import license or

conditions, or any other acts of God; quarantines; labor strikes or lockouts; riots; strife; insurrections; civil
disobedience or acts of criminals or terrorists; war; material shortages or delays in deliveries to Provider by

equal to the period of delay. If the force majeure circumstances extend for six months, Provider may, at its
option, terminate any part of or all of this Service Offering Agreement without penalty and without being
deemed in default or in breach thereof.
13. Non-Assignment and Waiver.
Subscriber will not transfer or assign this Service Offering Agreement or any rights or interests hereunder
without Provider’s prior written consent. Failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any
provision of this Service Offering Agreement, or to exercise any right or privilege contained herein, or the
waiver of any breach of the terms or conditions of this Service Offering Agreement will not be construed as
thereafter waiving any such terms, conditions, rights, or privileges, and the same will continue and remain

14. Limitation of Liability.
Provider, its affiliates, subsidiaries, and each of their respective directors, officers, members, partners,
and/or employees (individually, a “Provider Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Provider Indemnified
Parties”) will not be liable to Subscriber under any circumstances for any special, treble, incidental or
consequential damages, including without limitation, damage to or loss of property other than for the
Work purchased hereunder; damages incurred in installation, repair or replacement; lost profits, revenue or
opportunity; loss of use; losses resulting from or related to downtime of the products or inaccurate

strict liability or otherwise). The total liability of the Provider Indemnified Parties arising out of the
performance or non-performance hereunder or Provider’s obligations in connection with the design,
manufacture, sale, delivery, and/or use of the Service Offering/Work will in no circumstance exceed in the
aggregate a sum equal to twice the amount actually paid to Provider for any Service Offering/Work
delivered hereunder.
15. Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution.
The construction, interpretation and performance hereof and all transactions hereunder shall be governed
by the laws of the Province of British Columbia, without regard to its principles or laws regarding conflicts
of laws. If any provision of this Service Offering Agreement violates any Federal, State or local statutes or
regulations of any countries having jurisdiction of this transaction, or is illegal for any reason, said provision
shall be self-deleting without affecting the validity of the remaining provisions. Unless otherwise specifically
agreed upon in writing between Provider and Subscriber, any dispute relating to this Service Offering
agreement which is not resolved by the parties shall be adjudicated in order of preference by a court of
competent jurisdiction (i) in the Province of British Columbia, if Subscriber has minimum contacts with
British Columbia and, (ii) elsewhere in Canada if Subscriber has minimum contacts with Canada, but not
British Columbia, (iii) in the State of New York if Subscriber does not have minimum contacts with Canada.
16. Funds Transfers.
Subscriber and Provider both recognize that there is a risk of banking fraud when individuals impersonating
a business demand payment under new banking or mailing instructions. To avoid this risk, Subscriber must
verbally confirm any new or changed bank transfer or mailing instructions by calling Provider and speaking
with Provider’s accounts receivable contact before mailing or transferring any monies using the new
instructions. Both parties agree that they will not institute mailing or bank transfer instruction changes and
require immediate payment under the new instructions but will instead provide a ten (10) day grace period
Page 19 of 67

Page 20 of 67

to verify any payment instruction changes before any new or outstanding payments are due using the new
instructions.
17. Entire Agreement & Modification.
These Terms & Conditions of Sale and accompanying software or service agreement constitute the entire
agreement between the parties and supersede any prior agreements or representations, whether oral or
written. No change to or modification of these Terms & Conditions shall be binding upon Provider unless in
a written instrument specifically referencing that it is amending these Terms & Conditions of Sale and
signed by an authorized representative of Provider. Provider rejects any additional or inconsistent Terms &
Conditions of Sale offered by Subscriber at any time, whether or not such terms or conditions materially
alter the Terms & Conditions herein and irrespective of Provider’s acceptance of Subscriber’s order for the
described Service Offering/Work.

1.1 CLEARVIEW AI OVERVIEW
​ ​
1.1.1 CAPABILITIES STATEMENT
Clearview AI’s mission is to enhance national security, drastically reduce crime, fraud, and risk to make
communities safer and keep commerce secure. In 2019, federal, state, and local police departments
across America began using Clearview AI as a solution to help solve crime and ensure public safety. As a
platform for intelligence and identity management, it has quickly become a favored resource for law
enforcement, helping solve even the most difficult crimes. Today, many law enforcement agencies trust
Clearview AI’s one-of-a-kind, facial search technology.​ ​




Clearview AI’s revolutionary investigative platform allows investigators to search any facial image of a
suspect, victim, or other person of interest against over 60 billion online images. By using this tool to
efficiently process information investigators already possess, Clearview AI helps investigators identify
those without a prior arrest record, without an online presence, without a DMV record, or others that
would often otherwise go unidentified. Our solutions help to identify persons of interest, criminal
offenders, terrorists, human traffickers and child predators. Clearview AI also helps clients accelerate
their investigations, meaning they can do more with less.

1.2 ABOUT CLEARVIEW AI
Clearview AI is a privately-owned, U.S. based company, dedicated to innovating and providing the most
cutting-edge technology to law enforcement to investigate crimes, enhance public safety and provide
justice to victims.​

We believe law enforcement should have the most cutting-edge technology available to investigate
crimes, enhance public safety, and provide justice to victims. And that's why we developed a revolutionary,
web-based intelligence platform for law enforcement to use as a tool to help generate high-quality
investigative leads. Our platform, powered by facial recognition technology, includes the largest known
database of facial images sourced from public-only web sources, including news media, mugshot
websites, public social media, and other open sources. ​
Our solutions allow agencies to gain intelligence and disrupt crime by revealing leads, insights and
relationships to help investigators solve both simple and complex crimes, increase officer and public
safety, and keep our communities and families safer.

1.2.1 NIST: LEADING FACIAL RECOGNITION ALGORITHM IN THE U.S.​
Facial recognition technology has faced persistent criticism for alleged inaccuracies and biases,
particularly racial and demographic bias. However, advancements have rendered FRT more accurate and
sophisticated than the human eye by training on diverse datasets. The National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST), renowned for its rigorous facial recognition evaluations, tests over 650 algorithms,
revealing that top performers boast over 99%1 accuracy in matching photos out of large lineups. And
contrary to misconceptions, NIST's evaluations demonstrate minimal demographic bias in top algorithms,
with Clearview AI’s algorithm achieving over 99% accuracy across all demographics1.
Clearview AI is a leading facial recognition technology in the U.S. for its performance in accurately
matching mugshot photos (99.85% with a 12 million photo sample), VISA borders photos (99.86% with a
1.6 million photo sample), VISA photos (99.81%), and border photos (99.42%). While acknowledging the
need for regulation and ethical deployment, proponents argue for FRT's life saving potential as cited by
law enforcement in many cases of financial crimes, child exploitation rescue, and community crime
prevention. As discussions around FRT evolve, informed decisions based on scientific evidence and
accurate understanding of technology capabilities are crucial.
Clearview AI has been instrumental in thousands of cases including finding abducted children, identifying
endangered dementia cases, and apprehending drug traffickers, sex offenders, and other violent
criminals. Our database is the most representative of the population and is not limited to criminal
offenders (mugshot database). With over 50 billion publicly available images, Clearview AI’s database
covers a multitude of ages, ethnicities, and physical characteristics.

1.2.2 KEY BENEFITS
•​ HIGHLY EFFICIENT Allows agencies to address manpower and resource deficiencies by providing

high-probability investigative leads within a few seconds versus days or months.​
•​ INCREASE OFFICER, VICTIM + PUBLIC SAFETY Uncover actionable intelligence with powerful tools to

create cold case notification alerts. Support intelligence to validate suspect, victim and person of
interest identities that is often impossible using legacy identity tools.​
•​ DATA YOU CAN’T FIND ANYWHERE ELSE Clearview AI is the only facial recognition company that

provides billions of faces captured on the open web and “ in the wild”, offering the highest
probability of a successful match using the Clearview AI patented neural network algorithm and
1

This refers to performance in the categories of Demographic Effects on Visa-Border and Mugshot photos in the NIST Facial Recognition Vendor Test in the 1:1 setting, as well as performance in the
Mugshot-Mugshot, Mugshot-Webcam, Visa-Border, Border-Border (≥ 10 YRS), Mugshot-Mugshot (≥ 10 YRS) categories of the 1:N Investigative setting.

1.3 SECURITY & SOC2 COMPLIANCE
1.3.1 SOC2 CERTIFICATION​
Clearview AI has successfully completed its System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC 2) examination
certifying the company maintains effective controls over the security and processing integrity of its
clients’ data.
SOC 2 is an auditing procedure conducted by licensed and regulated certified public accountants that
rigorously reviews data service providers to ensure the secure management and accurate processing of
data. It is widely considered the highest standard of cybersecurity certification and is intended to protect
company’s interests and intellectual property when they engage data service providers.
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) outlines principles and criteria for SOC 2 examinations which
include exacting standards for security, cybersecurity, availability, process integrity and confidentiality.

1.3.2 DATA STORAGE & SECURITY​
We recognize that data storage and security concerns are of tremendous importance to public safety
agencies. We protect data in four ways:
•​ Routine automated code scans pinpoint vulnerabilities or dependencies within our source code.
We patch every issue upon discovery.
•​ Regular professional code audits and a bug bounty program with an industry-leading provider.
•​ Encrypt all traffic to the latest TLS specifications and protect it with Cloudflare reverse proxy
technology as it is routed through Clearview AI’s secure data center.
•​ Store data on multiple servers inside a secured data center with internal levels of access control.

OF
MARCH 9, 2026
RESOLUTION PROHIBITING THE USE OF CITY OF NEWBURGH PERSONNEL AND
RESOURCES FOR CIVIL IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT & REAFFIRMING THE
CITY OF NEWBURGH AS A FAIR AND WELCOMING CITY
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Newburgh ("City Council") adopted
Resolution No. 71-2017, declaring the City of Newburgh a Fair and Welcoming City, affirming
that all residents, regardless of immigration status, are entitled to equal protection of the laws and
to access municipal services; and
WHEREAS, the City's Fair and Welcoming policy reflects a long-standing recognition that
effective public safety requires trust between residents and local government, and that such trust is
undermined when immigrant community members fear that routine interactions with local police
or City agencies may lead to immigration enforcement; and
WHEREAS, since adoption of Resolution No. 71-2017, U.S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement ("ICE") and other federal immigration authorities have increased enforcement actions
in communities across the Hudson Valley, including operations in the Cities of Kingston and
Beacon and in the City of Newburgh, often conducted without prior notice to local officials and
sometimes involving tactics that cause confusion as to whether agents are local police or federal
officers; and
WHEREAS, the New York State Attorney General has issued "Guidance Concerning Local
Authority Participation in Immigration Enforcement and Model Sanctuary Provisions," which
confirms that local governments retain broad discretion to decline participation in civil immigration
enforcement and provides model language to limit the use of local resources for such purposes while
remaining fully compliant with federal and state law;
WHEREAS, multiple New York municipalities, including Hudson, Kingston, Beacon, and
Rochester, have adopted resolutions and ordinances that reaffirm their status as welcoming or
sanctuary jurisdictions and expressly limit their officers and employees from enforcing federal civil
immigration law or using local resources for that purpose;
WHEREAS, the Governor of the State of New York has recently proposed legislation,
sometimes described as the Local Cops, Local Crimes Act, that would prohibit formal agreements
deputizing New York law enforcement officers as federal immigration agents under 8 U.S.C.
§1357(g), and would bar the use of state-funded resources for civil immigration enforcement,
particularly in sensitive locations such as homes, schools, hospitals, and houses of worship;

Page 61 of 67

Page 62 of 67

WHEREAS, the New York for All Act has been advanced in the State Legislature to further
ensure that state and local resources, including personnel, facilities, and data systems, are not
diverted to carry out federal civil immigration enforcement and that sensitive information about
New Yorkers is protected;
WHEREAS, the City of Newburgh is home to a large and vibrant immigrant community,
with more than half of the City's residents identifying as Hispanic or Latino, and is also home to an
equally significant Black immigrant and Black American communities; and
WHEREAS, recent federal actions - including the repeal or restriction of Temporary
Protected Status, humanitarian parole, and other visa and work authorization programs - have
created a broad permission structure for increased civil immigration enforcement, exposing entire
communities to heightened surveillance, detention, and removal regardless of long-standing
community ties; and
WHEREAS, these actions have intensified community-wide vulnerability, particularly
impacting Latino, Black, and mixed-status families, and have undermined public safety, public
health, educational stability, and economic security for the City as a whole;
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that immigration law and civil immigration
enforcement are the responsibility of the federal government, and that nothing in this Resolution is
intended to prevent or obstruct the enforcement of criminal law, but rather to ensure that the City's
limited resources are focused on local public safety and community well-being;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Newburgh, that:
Section 1. Reaffirmation of Fair and Welcoming City Policy
1.1. The City Council hereby reaffirms Resolution No. 71-2017 declaring the City of Newburgh

enforcement.
1.2. It shall remain the policy of the City of Newburgh and its departments not to inquire into
