Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Dadbrain ("Dadbrain," "we," "us," or "our"), including dadbrain.ai and any related services (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Who may use the Service

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By using the Service you represent that you are at least 18 and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

2. Not professional advice

Dadbrain is an AI-powered informational tool. It is not a doctor, pediatrician, nurse, therapist, counselor, psychologist, psychiatrist, social worker, pharmacist, attorney, or any other licensed professional, and does not provide medical, mental-health, legal, or other professional advice. Using the Service does not create a professional relationship. See our Disclaimer for details and crisis resources.

3. Your account and conduct

You agree not to:

• Violate any applicable law or regulation.
• Use the Service to obtain professional advice for a specific medical, mental-health, legal, or financial situation when a qualified professional should be consulted.
• Submit content that is unlawful, harassing, defamatory, hateful, threatening, pornographic, or that infringes another's rights.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or interfere with the Service or its infrastructure.
• Use the Service to develop a competing product, to train a model, or in violation of Anthropic's acceptable use policies.
• Upload or transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
• Impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation.

4. User content

You retain ownership of the content you submit to the Service ("User Content"). You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, process, transmit, and display User Content solely to operate, provide, and improve the Service. You represent that you have the rights necessary to grant this license.

5. AI output

Responses generated by the Service ("Output") may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or biased. You are solely responsible for evaluating Output before relying on it. Output is not guaranteed to be unique; similar prompts may produce similar results for different users.

6. Intellectual property

The Service, including the Dadbrain name, logo, mascot, code, designs, and content (excluding User Content and Output) are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable IP laws. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial use subject to these Terms.

7. Third-party services

The Service relies on third-party providers (including Vercel, Supabase, Resend, and Anthropic). Your use of the Service is also subject to their terms. We are not responsible for third-party services.

8. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, OR MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL DADBRAIN OR ITS OPERATORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (US$100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Dadbrain and its operators from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any applicable law or third-party right.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms. You may stop using the Service at any time.

12. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The exclusive venue for any disputes shall be the state or federal courts located in Washington, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.

(If you launch beyond the US or add paid features, we recommend replacing this section with a formal arbitration and class-action waiver clause drafted for your jurisdiction.)

13. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated Terms will be posted with a new "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance.

14. Miscellaneous

These Terms are the entire agreement between you and Dadbrain regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely.
