Application Terms of Service

You must be at least 18 years old to use the App. Signup requires you to manually type your birth year and to tick a separate affirmation reading: “I explicitly affirm, under penalty of perjury and account termination, that I am over 18 years of age. I acknowledge that MYTH is built strictly for adult entertainment and uses automated psychological tracking that is legally unfit for minors.” By creating an account, you represent that you are 18 or older. A birth year that makes you under 18 blocks that device from signing up. FRAUDULENT ACCESS: if a minor lies about their age to access the platform, that lie is a material breach of contract and fraud. The minor's parents or legal guardians assume full financial responsibility and must fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless MYTH, its founder, and its operators against any regulatory fines, damages, or legal costs (including under GDPR, India's DPDP Act, or any child-protection law) arising from the child's unauthorized access. We reserve the right to verify age and to suspend or purge accounts that do not meet this requirement.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must provide accurate and complete information during registration. You may not share your account with others. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

You retain ownership of content you create, including characters, messages, and profiles. By submitting content, you grant MYTH a worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, and display your content within the App. You represent that your content does not violate any third-party rights.

You agree not to:

• Use the App for any illegal purpose

• Harass, abuse, or harm other users

• Create content depicting real minors in sexual contexts

• Attempt to reverse engineer or hack the App

• Use automated scripts or bots

• Impersonate any person or entity

• Upload malicious code or content

• Interfere with the App's operation

Violations may result in content removal, account suspension, or permanent ban at our sole discretion.

The App uses artificial intelligence to generate character responses, analyze conversations, create content, and provide app-management assistance via the MYTH Assistant. AI-generated content may be inaccurate, unpredictable, or inappropriate. The MYTH Assistant has the ability to create, modify, and delete characters and account settings on your behalf based on your instructions. You are solely responsible for verifying any actions taken by the AI assistant. You use all AI features at your own risk. We do not guarantee the accuracy, safety, or appropriateness of AI-generated content. Conversations with AI characters are not real relationships — they are simulated interactions.

The App includes features that analyze your conversations to generate psychological insights, including personality assessments, emotional patterns, and behavioral observations. These analyses are generated by AI and may be inaccurate. They are provided for entertainment purposes only and should not be considered professional psychological advice. The automated insights generated by this App are purely algorithmic fiction derived from text strings — pattern-matching over chat text. They do not constitute medical, diagnostic, or psychological records, and the App is not a health-tracking tool. We do not use this data for advertising, credit decisions, employment eligibility, or any other external purpose.

Your Consent: By using the App, you provide explicit consent to this processing of potentially sensitive personal data. You may request review or deletion of your psychological profile independently of account deletion by contacting our support team.

Your conversations, messages, uploaded images, voice recordings, profile information, and character data (including system prompts, greeting messages, Backstory, description, tags, and personality traits) are stored on our servers. Messages and context data are sent to third-party AI providers to generate responses. Voice recordings are sent to transcription services. Prompts you submit via the optional Star (☆) / LET AI FILL assistance are sent to our AI provider to generate drafts (see §30).

Data Processing Objection. Under applicable data protection law, you may object to the processing of your data for AI training. To submit an objection, contact our support team. We will review your objection and, where technically feasible, take reasonable steps to accommodate it. If we cannot honor your objection due to provider limitations, we will inform you of the reasons.

Message encryption at rest. Chat message text (character chats, direct messages, group chats, chat previews, report snapshots, AI memory facts) is encrypted in our database (AES-256-GCM) — a database leak alone cannot reveal message content. This is NOT end-to-end encryption: our servers decrypt messages to generate AI replies and for authorized admin safety review. Manual review occurs only in connection with reported violations or legal requirements. You should have no expectation of privacy from the platform in communications made through the App, as technical access is required for AI features to function.

We implement industry-standard security measures but cannot guarantee absolute security. You may request deletion of your data as described in our Privacy Policy.

Voice Calls. Live voice calls with AI characters are handled in real time by a third-party voice-agent service (Vapi). MYTH does not store voice call audio or call transcripts; a call transcript is viewable in the app only immediately after a call and is not retained by us.

The App integrates with:

• Clerk — authentication and identity management

• Convex — database and backend infrastructure

• Gemini (Google) — AI response generation

• Groq — voice transcription

• Vapi — live voice calls

• ElevenLabs — voice synthesis for calls

• Expo — push notifications and app framework

These services have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their practices.

The App name, logo, design, and code are owned by MYTH and protected by applicable laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works without our express permission. Character content you create remains your intellectual property.

We reserve the right to review, moderate, and remove content that violates these terms. We use automated systems and AI to detect policy violations. Repeated violations may result in account suspension. We may report illegal content to appropriate authorities.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice, at our sole discretion. We are not required to provide an explanation for any suspension or termination. If asked, we may state that the action was taken for security, compliance, or operational reasons. You acknowledge that your access to the App is a revocable privilege, not a right. Upon termination, your data is deleted immediately unless retention is required by law.

The App is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or offensive material. Use at your own risk.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall MYTH, its founder, or its operators be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages whatsoever (including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, data loss, business interruption, personal injury, emotional distress, psychological harm, or relationship dissolution) arising out of or related to your use of the App, regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise). The platform's total aggregate liability for all claims under this agreement shall be strictly capped at and shall not exceed either: (a) the total amount actually paid by you to the platform in the three (3) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to liability, or (b) ₹1,000 INR (One Thousand Indian Rupees), whichever is lower.

Direct messaging and other user-to-user interactions are provided at your own risk. We do not monitor all private communications. Report abusive behavior through the in-app reporting system. We are not responsible for user conduct.

The App may offer paid features or subscriptions. Fees will be clearly disclosed before purchase. All sales are final unless required by law. We may change pricing with reasonable notice.

Free Access & Quotas. Message and voice-call usage is subject to daily quotas that may grant bonus usage for watching rewarded ads, unless an admin-enabled free mode is active (Free Message, Free Call, or Everything Free) or a birthday/announcement free period applies, in which case affected quotas are unlimited while the free mode is active. Rewarded and banner ads, when enabled by admin settings, may be shown in the App; see Privacy Policy §12 for details.

Referral Credits. The Referral Program (§31) may grant bonus message credits (e.g., 25 for flagged referrals, 250 for standard referrals, 400 on successful appeal, plus leaderboard/streak bonuses) with a 30-day expiry. Referral credits are consumed before your daily free quota (75/day) and expire after 30 days; see §31 for forfeiture and debt rules.

The App features creative writing and entertainment systems designed exclusively for mature audiences. Depending on active system preferences and individual character configurations, content may utilize blurring mechanisms, user-toggled display interfaces, or dynamic visibility layers. The presence, behavior, and default status of content blurring features remain entirely at the discretion of the platform developer and are subject to real-time administrative updates without prior notice. Content depicting real minors in sexual contexts is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate ban and reporting to authorities.

These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India. Any disputes arising from these terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh. You waive the right to participate in class-action lawsuits.

We may modify these terms at any time. Material changes will be notified via email or in-app notice. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. If you disagree with changes, you must stop using the App and delete your account.

For questions about these terms, contact us through the in-app support system or via the Contact Support page in Settings.

The App uses fully automated AI systems to analyze conversations and generate psychological profiles, personality assessments, emotional states, and behavioral predictions. These automated decisions significantly impact your experience — including character responses, content recommendations, and relationship dynamics. This automated processing is strictly necessary to deliver the core interactive experience of the App. Your continued use of the platform serves as affirmative consent to this execution; if you do not agree to this automated processing, your sole remedy is to deactivate your account and discontinue use.

Different data types are retained for different periods:

• Chat messages, psychological profiles, memories: retained until account deletion

• Voice recordings: deleted immediately after transcription

• Voice call metadata (character, date, duration): retained until account deletion

• Voice call audio and transcripts: not stored by MYTH; call records held by Vapi are subject to Vapi's data retention policy

• IP addresses and device fingerprints at acceptance: retained until account deletion

• Support tickets: retained indefinitely

Upon account deletion, all associated data is deleted immediately. We do not retain anonymized chat logs.

When you accept these terms, we record the IP address you accepted from, your device model, operating system, screen resolution, user-agent, and timestamp as evidence of consent. This data is stored server-side (not in local storage) and retained until account deletion. Only the specific fields listed above are collected.

If you are a California resident, you have the right to request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we collect, request deletion of your data, and opt out of the sale of your data. We do not sell your personal information. To exercise your rights, contact us through the in-app support system.

Conversation data and context are processed by third-party AI providers to generate responses. These providers may use data for model training. You may object to this processing by contacting our support team. We will review your objection and, where technically feasible, take reasonable steps to accommodate it. If we cannot honor your objection due to provider limitations, we will inform you of the reasons and your sole remedy is to discontinue use of the App.

Message text is encrypted at rest in our database (AES-256-GCM) — a database breach alone cannot reveal it. This is not end-to-end encryption: we use automated systems to decrypt and review content for service quality, safety, and compliance purposes. Manual review occurs only in connection with reported violations or legal requirements. You should have no expectation of privacy from the platform in communications made through the App, as technical access to message content is necessary for AI features to function.

Admin Data Access. Day-to-day safety review is performed by automated systems, not people. A human administrator accesses the content of your chats only when triggered by one of the following: (a) a report you or another user files, (b) an automated severe-content flag requiring human confirmation, (c) a support request you submit, or (d) a valid legal obligation (court order, subpoena, or takedown notice). All human access is logged, limited to trained staff, and restricted to the minimum data needed for that task (e.g. the reported conversation, not your whole account). We do not routinely browse user chats. In rare emergencies (active abuse, platform integrity threats) we may act first under §12 and document the reason afterward.

Authorized administrators may use an AI-assisted user insight analysis tool to better understand your account and behavior. This tool analyzes your stored data — including your messages, chat history, characters, feed preferences, interests, and stored psychological profile — to answer questions about your psychology, communication style, emotional patterns, and preferences for the purposes of support, moderation, abuse prevention, and platform safety. This analysis re-uses data already stored in your account; it does not collect new personal data. The results are used only by authorized personnel and are not used for advertising, credit decisions, employment, or other external purposes.

When you create a character, you may provide a Backstory — a short description of the environment or situation where a chat with that character begins (for example, where the characters are, what is happening, or how the conversation starts). The Backstory is stored as part of the character record alongside the system prompt, greeting message, description, tags, and personality traits. It is shown as initial context to anyone who chats with the character and is used to ground the AI's first replies, together with the other character fields. You own your Backstory text under §4 (User Content) and grant MYTH the same worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, and display it within the App. Backstory is retained until the character is deleted or your account is deleted. You may edit or remove it at any time via the character edit screen.

The character-creation wizard offers optional AI assistance: Star (☆) buttons by the system-prompt, greeting, and Backstory fields, and a LET AI FILL button for personality traits. If you tap a Star, the App shows a prompt box; on submit it sends your short prompt plus minimal character context (name, type, description, and — for Backstory/Personality — the system prompt, greeting, and Backstory you have already provided) to our AI provider (Gemini via our proxy) to generate a draft. For Backstory, you must first fill the system prompt and greeting (via Star or manually) before Backstory assistance is available. For personality, the AI returns 10 trait values (humor, warmth, aggression, intelligence, flirtiness, mystery, energy, empathy, confidence, creativity) on a 0–100 scale. Drafts are shown for review and are not saved until you tap Accept; tapping Cancel discards the draft (an Undo is offered briefly). Your assistance prompt and the character context sent for generation are processed under §8 and our Privacy Policy's AI Service Providers disclosure. Generation is subject to the same AI-Generated Content disclaimer in §6 — AI drafts may be inaccurate or inappropriate; always review and edit before saving. If you do not use these features, no assistance prompt is sent.

How it works. Each account is issued a personal 6-character referral code (e.g., AB12CD, no expiry, unique) visible under Settings → Refer. Another user may enter that code via Settings → Refer → "Enter refer code" (claimRefer). We look up the code owner and check for abuse before granting credits.

Fraud & suspicious checks. We compare the claimant and owner: self-referral (same account) is flagged suspicious; otherwise if the IP address at claim (terms_ip_address) matches the owner's IP we collect limited account details for both accounts (email, name, device_details, networkInfo including push_token, displayInfo, accountInfo/createdAt) and send a one-shot AI check (Gemini Flash via our proxy: "Are these two accounts the same person — self-refer?" → {same, confidence 0–1}). If confidence > 0.7 we mark the claim suspicious. This processing is disclosed in our Privacy Policy.

Credits & expiry. A normal referral grants 250 bonus message credits; a flagged/suspicious referral grants 25 and shows: "Suspicious refer — This refer is marked as self refer, if you think we made a mistake please tell us about it" with a Request Appeal button. Referral credits expire 30 days after grant (expiryAt = grant + 30d). While active, each message you send consumes refer credits first until 0, then your daily free quota (75/day, resets daily; refer credits do not reset until expiry). After expiry only the 75/day remains. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, and may be forfeited for abuse.

Appeals. If flagged, you may submit an appeal (optional justification text). Appeals create a pending refer_appeal reviewed by admins. If approved (AI mistake), you receive 400 credits (250 + 150 apology) and the suspicious flag is cleared. If rejected, -25 credits is applied as a debt — if you have <25 remaining it carries to the next day and is deducted from the next day's total (refer + free) before you can use them. You may appeal at most twice per flagged claim (one pending + one retry after rejection); a second approval grants 400, a second rejection grants nothing further.

Admin controls & bonuses. Admins may disable referral for a specific user (users.refer_disabled blocks future claims to that owner). Leaderboard and streak bonuses are automatic: weekly top referrers +100, 3 referrals in 7 days +50 (surprise bonus). Bonus credits follow the same 30-day expiry and refer-first consumption.

Platform Discretion & Enforcement. Engaging in multi-account creation, self-referral manipulation, or automated script execution to exploit the referral tier system is strictly prohibited. The platform operator retains the absolute, unreviewable, and exclusive discretion to determine what constitutes systemic referral abuse. Upon identifying suspicious or hostile activity, the administrator may choose to apply credit penalties, impose quota debts, revoke promotional balances, or permanently terminate the offending accounts instantly without warning, explanation, or recourse under Sections 5, 11, and 12 of these Terms.

We may show an informational Profile Notice on your profile screen (below follower/following counts, above your characters/chats) to communicate operational status. Default notice: "We acknowledge some features of app aren't working properly, and we are giving our best to fix them asap, if you found one? report it in HELP & Support by scrolling down to bottom and selecting Help & Support or Bug Report - both take to same screen". Admin controls: The notice is DB-driven via app_settings (profile_notice_mode: Off / default / Custom; profile_notice_custom_text; profile_notice_level: GOOD / MEDIUM / LOW / CRITICAL). The visual styling, color codes, operational status banners, and visual layouts of these alerts remain at the sole and exclusive discretion of the platform operator and may undergo real-time modifications without prior notification. When mode is Off no notice is shown; when Custom the admin-authored text is displayed. Notices are strictly informational, subject to change without notice, and do not modify system quotas, credit structures, or user entitlements under these Terms.

Before initiating any formal legal proceedings, filing a regulatory complaint, or pursuing judicial remedies in any court or administrative body, you agree to first submit your grievance directly to our support system via the in-app support or designated support email. You must provide a detailed written description of your issue and the specific remedy you are seeking. The platform shall have a period of thirty (30) business days from the receipt of your message to review, investigate, and attempt to resolve the matter in good faith. You explicitly agree that completing this informal administrative resolution process is a strict condition precedent to filing any legal action, and failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of these Terms, grounds for immediate dismissal of any filed action, and immediate termination of your account.

All claims, disputes, or grievances arising under these terms must be brought strictly on an individual basis. You explicitly waive any right, entitlement, or capacity to maintain, join, participate in, or act as a plaintiff or class member in any class action lawsuit, collective action, private attorney general action, multi-party litigation, or representative proceeding against MYTH or its operators.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless MYTH, its founder, and its operators from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, fines, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and legal costs) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the App, (b) any content, characters, or messages you submit or generate, (c) your breach of these Terms, or (d) your violation of any third-party rights or applicable laws. You agree that the platform reserves the right to control the legal defense of any such claim at your sole financial expense.

# MYTH Platform Creator Terms & Liability Agreement

1. Absolute Direct Liability for Content Creation

By applying for a Creator Account and executing this agreement, you acknowledge that you are acting as an independent, third-party publisher. You assume absolute, exclusive, and unreviewable civil and criminal liability for all characters, avatars, system prompts, greetings, image assets, backstories, and textual outputs generated or hosted under your account.

2. Strict Prohibition of Non-Consensual, Copyrighted, and Real-Person Impersonation

You explicitly represent, warrant, and covenant that any character you create on MYTH: • Does NOT depict, copy, or simulate any real-world, living or deceased private individual without their express, verifiable written consent. • Does NOT utilize copyrighted material, intellectual property, proprietary artwork, trade secrets, or protected characters belonging to third-party corporate entities or individuals without a valid commercial license. • Does NOT facilitate, encourage, or depict non-consensual sexual content, real-world exploitation, or non-consensual deepfakes.

3. Full Legal and Financial Indemnification

In the event that any character created by you results in a trademark dispute, copyright infringement claim, right of publicity lawsuit, or criminal investigation anywhere in the world, you explicitly agree that: • The legal case, financial damages, penalties, and statutory fines belong solely to you, the individual signed below. • You shall fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless MYTH, its founder, and its operational staff from any liability, expenses, or attorney fees. • MYTH is legally required to, and reserves the absolute right to, hand over your verified real name, full physical address, and account IP logs directly to law enforcement, regulatory bodies, or third-party corporate legal councils upon receipt of a valid subpoena, DMCA notice, or legal demand.

4. Execution via Electronic Signature & Auto-Approval

You agree that typing your full legal name below serves as your binding electronic signature, verifying that all identity information is accurate. This digital signature carries the same legal weight as a physical signature under Section 10A of the Indian Information Technology Act. The signature field remains locked until you scroll to the bottom. Creator applications are auto-approved on submission and signature, but remain subject to admin review: admin may keep approved (no change) or reject — rejection terminates creator publishing access (normal account still works, must re-appeal) and freezes all your public characters (only you can use, others see 'This character is unavailable').

5. Private vs Public Characters

Private characters (visibility off) do not require Creator account. You may create up to 3 private characters. Every 5 characters you create (any visibility) unlocks +1 additional private slot (3 + floor(total/5)). Public characters (visibility on) require approved Creator account and are subject to §1-4 liability.

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data under the following GDPR legal bases: contractual necessity (to provide AI character chats, memories, and personalized responses under §6/§7/§21 — you explicitly consent to this processing as it is core to the service and cannot be disabled while using the App), legitimate interests (fraud prevention, referral checks §31/§25, creator verification §36, and platform safety), and legal obligation (creator identity handover under §36 where required by law). You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to processing, and data portability, and to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority. Automated psychological profiling under §7/§21 is performed only with your explicit consent as contractual necessity for the core service; you may request human review or deletion of your profile independently of account deletion via support. Contact us to exercise these rights.

We clarify §8/§26/§27: access to message and character data is purely programmatic, automated, and strictly limited to security orchestration, threat mitigation, and legal compliance automated audits. Manual review occurs only for reported violations or valid legal demands. This is not broad human surveillance — it is sandbox-isolated, logged, and minimal to what is necessary for safety and compliance, in addition to the existing no-expectation-of-privacy disclosure.

Bypassing age barriers — including automated scripts, VPNs, fake profiles, or falsified birth years — is a material breach of these Terms. On detection we immediately forfeit all of the offending account's entitlements (credits, gems, bonuses, referral balances) and execute a permanent, irreversible purge of the account and all associated data (chats, characters, memories, profiles, device logs) within 24 hours. There is no appeal for fraudulently obtained accounts. Parents or guardians may request deletion of a minor's account at any time through the parental-control process described in our Privacy Policy (§30); verified parental requests are honored the same way, with the in-app user given explicit agree/deny consent first.
