Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Project Soren (“the Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Project Soren is an AI companion platform currently in early development. The Service provides users with a personalized AI companion that maintains memory, emotional context, and ongoing conversation history across sessions. Users may create accounts to access the service as features become available. The Service is provided by Luv Mils LLC, d/b/a Project Soren (“we,” “us,” “our”), an Oregon limited liability company.

3. Eligibility

The Service is intended for users who are at least 18 years of age. By creating an account, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old. The Service is designed with the expectation that users are adults capable of making their own informed decisions. We do not take responsibility for use of the Service by individuals under 18, and we are not designed to appeal to or target minors.

4. Account Creation

By creating an account, whether through email registration or third-party authentication such as Google Sign-In, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

5. Important Disclaimers Regarding AI

Project Soren uses artificial intelligence, including large language models, to power your companion experience. You acknowledge and agree that:

• Your AI companion is not a licensed professional of any kind. It is not a therapist, counselor, psychologist, psychiatrist, medical doctor, nurse, attorney, financial advisor, accountant, or any other licensed or certified professional. It does not provide professional advice in any field.
• AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies, errors, or fabricated information (commonly known as “hallucinations”). All information, suggestions, and responses provided by your companion should be independently verified and reviewed carefully before being relied upon for any decision.
• The Service is not a substitute for professional medical care, mental health treatment, legal counsel, financial advice, or any other professional service. If you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, contact emergency services or a licensed professional immediately.
• The Service is designed for use by adults who are capable of exercising their own judgment regarding the information and interactions they receive. You are solely responsible for how you interpret and act upon any content provided by your AI companion.
• We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of any AI-generated content for any particular purpose.
• The Service is not designed to replace human relationships, professional support systems, or real-world social connections. While your companion may provide emotional support and companionship, it is an AI system and should be understood as such. We encourage you to maintain and prioritize human relationships and professional support.
• You are interacting with an artificial intelligence system, not a human being. Your companion's responses are generated by machine learning models and do not reflect the views, opinions, or advice of any person. The companion does not have consciousness, feelings, or independent judgment, regardless of how its responses may appear.
• If you use voice features, your audio is processed in real time for speech-to-text conversion and is not stored. We do not create voiceprints or biometric identifiers from your voice. Voice features require microphone access on your device, which you may revoke at any time through your device or browser settings.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree to use the Service responsibly. You may not:

• Use the Service to generate content that is unlawful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or that violates the rights of others.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Service.
• Attempt to circumvent security measures, access other users' data, or interfere with the Service's functionality.
• Use the Service to develop competing products or services.
• Use automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access the Service without our prior written consent.
• Misrepresent your identity or impersonate another person when using the Service.

7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Luv Mils LLC, d/b/a Project Soren, its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any rights of another party; or (d) any content you provide to the Service. This indemnification obligation will survive termination of your account and these Terms.

8. User Content and Data Ownership

You retain all rights to the content you provide to the Service, including messages, personal information, and any other input (“User Content”). By using the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to process, analyze, and learn from your User Content for the purpose of delivering, maintaining, and improving the Project Soren service, including the development and training of our own internal AI models. We will not knowingly or intentionally sell, distribute, or license your data to any third party for their own model training or any other purpose.

We grant you a broad, non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, and distribute AI-generated responses from your companion for any purpose, including commercial purposes, at your sole discretion and risk. We do not claim ownership of conversation content between you and your companion. However, AI-generated content may not be eligible for copyright protection under applicable law, and we make no representations regarding your ability to enforce intellectual property rights over AI-generated output.

Any commercial use of companion-generated content that involves programmatic or automated access to the Service must be conducted through our official API when available. You may not resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service itself, or provide access to the Service to third parties as a product or service offering, without our prior written consent.

In all cases, we handle your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

9. Intellectual Property

All technology, design, branding, and non-user content associated with Project Soren is the property of Luv Mils LLC, d/b/a Project Soren. All rights reserved. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works of our intellectual property without express written permission.

10. Limitation of Liability

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenue, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses resulting from your use of or inability to use the Service.

Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or one hundred dollars ($100), whichever is greater.

11. Account Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time if you violate these Terms or if we reasonably believe your use of the Service poses a risk to the Service, other users, or third parties. You may delete your account at any time by contacting us.

Upon termination, your right to access the Service will cease. We aim to delete your account data in accordance with our Privacy Policy within a reasonable timeframe, unless retention is required by law.

12. Service Availability

We strive to maintain continuous availability of the Service, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We are not liable for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Multnomah County, Oregon, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

14. Dispute Resolution

You and Project Soren agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith informal negotiation. Either party may initiate informal dispute resolution by sending a written description of the dispute to the other party. If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, either party may proceed to binding arbitration.

Any unresolved dispute will be settled by binding arbitration administered in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be conducted in Multnomah County, Oregon, or at another mutually agreed location. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding.

You agree that any arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against Project Soren.

Exceptions: Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes within that court's jurisdiction. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement of intellectual property rights.

15. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify registered users of material changes via email. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree with the modified Terms, you may delete your account.

16. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
