journAI — Terms of Use (EULA)

Effective 2026-06-09 · Last updated 2026-06-09

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Tushar ("journAI", "we", "us"), governing your use of the journAI mobile application and related services (the "App"). By downloading, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of digital consent in your country, if higher) to use journAI. By using the App you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide is accurate.

2. The service

journAI is a personal journaling app. You write entries; the App uses artificial intelligence to generate reflections, mood readings, weekly digests, and a chat that answers from your own entries. Some features are free; others require a paid subscription ("journAI Pro"). We may add, change, or remove features over time.

3. Your account

You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your sign-in method secure. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. You may sign in with email, Apple, or Google; your use of those sign-in methods is also subject to those providers' terms.

4. Subscriptions, billing, and cancellation

  • journAI Pro is offered as auto-renewing monthly or annual subscriptions. Pricing is shown in the App at the point of purchase.
  • Payment is charged to your Apple App Store or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase.
  • Auto-renewal: subscriptions renew automatically for the same period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
  • Managing or cancelling: manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.
  • Free trials / promotions, if offered, convert to paid unless cancelled before the trial ends; any unused trial portion is forfeited on purchase of a subscription.
  • Price changes will be communicated in advance as required by the app stores; continued use after a change means you accept the new price.
  • Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their respective policies; we generally cannot issue store refunds directly.

5. Your content

  • You own your entries. Your journal content remains yours.
  • Licence to operate the App. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to store, process, and transmit your content solely to provide the App's features to you — including sending entry text to our AI provider for processing as described in the Privacy Policy. We do not sell your content and do not use it for advertising.
  • Responsibility & backups. You are responsible for the content you write and for maintaining your own copies of anything important. The App is not a backup service, and to the fullest extent permitted by law we are not liable for any loss, deletion, or corruption of your content.

6. AI features — important disclaimer

journAI's reflections, mood readings, digests, and chat responses are generated by automated systems and are provided for personal reflection only. They may be inaccurate or incomplete and are not professional, medical, psychological, or mental-health advice. Do not rely on the App for diagnosis or treatment.

journAI is not a crisis or emergency service. If you are in distress or think you may harm yourself or others, contact your local emergency services or a qualified professional immediately.

No monitoring; no duty to intervene. journAI does not monitor, review, or moderate your entries in real time, and has no ability or obligation to detect, respond to, escalate, or alert anyone — including emergency services — based on anything you write. Mood readings are automated reflections, not safety monitoring, and must not be relied on to identify any medical or psychological condition.

Assumption of risk. You use journAI's AI features at your own discretion and risk and accept that its outputs may be wrong, incomplete, or unsuitable for your situation.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to: use the App unlawfully; attempt to access other users' data; reverse engineer, disrupt, or overload the service or our AI providers; bypass subscription controls or rate limits; or use the App to store content you have no right to store. We may suspend or terminate access for violations.

8. Intellectual property

The App, its design, brand ("journAI"), and software are owned by us and our licensors and are protected by law. These Terms grant you a personal, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App; they do not transfer any ownership in the App to you.

9. Third-party services

The App relies on third parties including Apple, Google (including the Gemini AI API), Supabase, RevenueCat, PostHog, and Sentry. Their services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for them.

10. Disclaimers

The App is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that AI outputs will be accurate or suitable for any purpose.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, or goodwill arising from your use of the App. Our total liability for any claim relating to the App will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or USD 50. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.

Consumer law. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under mandatory consumer-protection law that cannot lawfully be excluded — including the Australian Consumer Law, the consumer-protection law of your Canadian province, India's Consumer Protection Act, and applicable U.S. state law. Where the Australian Consumer Law applies and our liability for breach of a non-excludable guarantee may be limited, our liability is limited (at our option) to re-supplying the service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of your misuse of the App, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

13. Apple App Store — additional terms

If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, the following apply and prevail over any conflicting terms above with respect to your use on Apple devices:

  1. These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
  2. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App; we are solely responsible for support, at tushardahiya84@gmail.com.
  3. To the extent permitted by law, Apple has no warranty obligation; any failure to conform to a warranty will be our responsibility.
  4. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product-liability, legal/regulatory, or consumer-protection claims.
  5. In the event of a third-party intellectual-property claim, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge.
  6. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting," and are not on any U.S. prohibited or restricted-party list.
  7. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
  8. You must comply with applicable third-party agreement terms (e.g. your wireless data plan) when using the App.
  9. Google Play. If you obtained the App from Google Play, you also agree to Google Play's Terms of Service, and the equivalents of the above protections apply in Google's favour to the extent Google requires.

14. Dispute resolution; arbitration; class-action waiver (U.S. residents)

This section applies only if you are a resident of the United States. It affects how disputes are resolved — please read it carefully.

  • Informal resolution first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to email us at tushardahiya84@gmail.com with a description of your dispute and to allow 30 days to resolve it in good faith.
  • Binding arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, any dispute arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by a recognized arbitration provider (e.g. the American Arbitration Association) under its consumer rules, rather than in court, except as stated below. The arbitrator decides all issues, except that a court may decide the validity of the class-action waiver below.
  • Exceptions. Either party may (i) bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and (ii) seek injunctive relief in court for intellectual-property infringement or unauthorized access to the service.
  • Class-action and jury waiver. You and we agree that disputes will be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding. You and we waive any right to a jury trial. If this class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) will proceed in court.
  • 30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing tushardahiya84@gmail.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name and that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

15. Termination

You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time (Profile → Delete account). We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or to comply with law. On termination, your right to use the App ends; sections that by their nature should survive (e.g. content licence limits, disclaimers, liability limits) will survive.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as the App evolves. We will update the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, give notice in the App. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

17. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be subject to the courts of New Delhi, India, except where applicable consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts, and except for disputes subject to arbitration under §14.

18. General

  • Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions remain in full force.
  • Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior understandings.
  • No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
  • Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms. We may assign them — for example, in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of the App.
  • Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including failures of third-party services (such as Apple, Google, Supabase, or our AI providers), network or hosting outages, or acts of God.
