The deal, in plain words.

By installing Alide, creating an account, or using the service, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use Alide - and if you've already installed it, uninstalling the extension and deleting your account ends the agreement.

These terms work alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes what data Alide handles. Where the two overlap, the Privacy Policy governs how we treat your data.

You must be at least 13 years old. If you're under 18, you need a parent or guardian's permission. If you're using Alide for an employer, you're confirming you have the authority to accept these terms for them.

One account per person. Don't share your sign-in link or let someone else use your account - your usage allowance and your history both belong to your account, and we treat activity on it as yours.

Alide reads the prompt you're writing on a supported chat site and suggests how to make it clearer. That's the whole product. It is a writing assistant, not a professional adviser.

Suggestions come from an AI model and can be wrong. They may be inaccurate, incomplete, or ill-suited to what you actually meant. You are responsible for what you send. Never treat Alide's output as legal, medical, financial, or professional advice, and check anything that matters before you rely on it.

Alide works on the chat sites we list, and those sites are run by other companies. They can change their pages at any time, which can break Alide's ability to read the prompt box until we catch up. We aren't affiliated with any of them.

Alide is free right now. The free plan includes 3 full prompt reviews every 30 days, counted from your first review in a period, along with the grammar and clarity checks that run locally on your own machine and don't count against anything.

We may change what the free plan includes. If we reduce it, we'll say so on the pricing page before the change takes effect. A paid plan is planned but does not exist yet - nothing in Alide charges you today, and we will not start charging an existing account without asking you first.

You keep every right you have in what you write. We claim no ownership of your prompts, your drafts, or anything you produce with Alide's help.

You give us permission to do one narrow thing with that text: send it to our model provider and back so a suggestion can be produced for you. That permission exists only to run the service, lasts only as long as the request, and covers nothing else. As the Privacy Policy explains, your prompts are not stored in our database at any point, and are never used to train models.

Don't use Alide to:

Break the law, or help someone else do it. Produce content that sexualises minors, incites violence, or harasses a real person. Generate malware, phishing pages, or credential-harvesting content. Impersonate someone else. Infringe copyright or trade secrets you don't hold.

And on the technical side: don't try to break, overload, or reverse-engineer the service; don't automate access outside the extension, script it, or resell it; don't work around usage limits by creating extra accounts; and don't upload anything designed to damage our systems or another user's.

If you do any of this we may suspend or close your account. Where it's reasonable to do so, we'll tell you why first.

You can stop any time: uninstall the extension, or delete your account from the extension's settings, which permanently removes your account and all server-side data. There is nothing to cancel and no notice period.

We can suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, or that we're required to act on by law. If we ever discontinue Alide entirely, we'll give reasonable notice so you can export anything you want to keep.

Alide is provided "as is". We don't warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at any particular moment, and we don't warrant that its suggestions will suit your purpose. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Some places don't allow those exclusions. If you live somewhere that doesn't, this section applies to you only as far as local law permits, and it doesn't remove consumer rights you have by statute.

To the fullest extent the law allows, Alide is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or lost business - including anything that follows from acting on a suggestion Alide produced.

Our total liability for any claim relating to Alide is capped at whichever is greater: the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or one hundred US dollars. Since Alide is currently free, that cap is one hundred dollars.

Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited - including for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

We may update these terms as the product changes. When we make a material change, we'll update the effective date at the top and give notice in the extension or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use Alide after that means you accept the new terms; if you don't, delete your account.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you and Alide each consent to that jurisdiction.

If you're a consumer outside the United States, this doesn't deprive you of the protection of mandatory laws in the country where you live, or of the right to bring a claim there.

Before filing anything, please email us - almost everything is faster to fix by asking.

If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest stays in force. If we don't enforce something right away, we haven't given up the right to enforce it later. You can't transfer this agreement to someone else; we can transfer it as part of a merger or sale of the business. Together with the Privacy Policy, this is the entire agreement between you and Alide about the service.
