I was pretty sure that someone was going to "ackshually" me here, and here we are. The specific wording doesn't matter. I've negotioated dozens of these contracts and the value add of a vendor managing the data is liability. If they aren't liable for data mis-management, then their managed service is only worth the infra costs + a haircut on top, and we'll renegotiate with this in mind.
