Terms of Service

Last updated: [Date]

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the 1MinuteBrain service ("Service") operated by [Your Organization Name] ("we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the Service, creating an account, or using an access token, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

1MinuteBrain is an AI-powered knowledge bot that allows visitors to ask questions and receive answers based on a curated document knowledge base. The Service is built on Cloudflare's infrastructure and is provided as an open-source, self-hostable application.

The AI-generated responses are based on uploaded documents and may not always be accurate, complete, or current. Responses should not be treated as professional advice (legal, medical, financial, or otherwise).

3. Access Tokens & Permitted Use

Access to the chat interface requires a valid access token issued by the site operator. By using an access token, you agree to:

• Keep your access token confidential and not share it with unauthorized parties
• Use the Service only for its intended purpose — asking questions related to the knowledge base
• Not attempt to circumvent rate limits, authentication, or security measures
• Not use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to interact with the Service without prior authorization

We reserve the right to revoke access tokens at any time, for any reason, without notice.

4. User Responsibilities

When using the Service, you agree not to:

• Submit content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, or otherwise objectionable
• Attempt to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or breach security measures
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers/networks connected to it
• Attempt to extract, download, or reconstruct the underlying knowledge base documents
• Use the Service in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international law
• Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely state or misrepresent your affiliation

5. Conversation Recording & Review

By using the Service, you acknowledge and consent to the following:

• All conversations are recorded — every message you send and every AI response is stored as a complete transcript
• The site operator can read your conversations — the person or organization running this Service has access to view your full chat history alongside your name, email address, and phone number (if provided)
• Your contact information may be used for follow-up — the site operator may contact you regarding your inquiry or to provide additional information related to the topics you discussed
• Chat transcripts are encrypted at rest — conversations are protected using AES-256-GCM encryption, but are accessible in decrypted form to the site operator through the admin dashboard

If you do not consent to your conversations being recorded and reviewed, do not use the Service.

6. Intellectual Property

The 1MinuteBrain software is licensed under the MIT License. The source code is free to use, modify, distribute, and deploy without restriction.

The knowledge base content (uploaded documents and AI-generated responses) is owned by the site operator. Your chat inputs remain yours, but you grant us a limited license to process, store, and review them for the purposes described in these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that:

• The Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
• AI-generated responses will be accurate, reliable, or complete
• Any errors in the Service will be corrected
• The Service will meet your specific requirements

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL [YOUR ORGANIZATION NAME], ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

• Your use of or inability to use the Service
• Any AI-generated content or responses provided by the Service
• Unauthorized access to or alteration of your data
• Any third-party conduct on the Service
• Any other matter relating to the Service

Our total aggregate liability for all claims arising from or related to the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or $100 USD, whichever is greater.

9. Data & Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your data. Key points:

• We collect your name, email, phone number (if requested), and full chat transcripts
• Chat logs are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM but are viewable by the site operator
• Chat logs are retained for 90 days by default, then automatically deleted
• The site operator may contact you based on your inquiry
• We do not sell or share your data with third parties
• No third-party tracking or analytics are used

10. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including if you breach these Terms.

Upon termination:

• Your right to use the Service will immediately cease
• Your access tokens will be revoked
• Your chat history will be deleted in accordance with our data retention policy

Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive (including Intellectual Property, Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, and Governing Law).

11. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [Your State/Country], without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be resolved in the courts of [Your Jurisdiction], and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

12. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

For material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected users (e.g., via email if you have opted in to communications).

13. Severability

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