Terms and conditions
Version 1, in force from . This is the version currently in force. Its permanent address is /terms/1.
Using the bot
Assistant is a Discord bot. Adding it to a server, or using it in a server it is already in, means these terms apply to you. If you do not agree with them, do not use it: nothing here is a command you have to run, and the bot will simply decline to act for you.
Some of what the bot does is decided by a language model. It is asked to work out a sequence of operations and to carry them out, and it can only ever use the same operations a person can, with the same permission checks applied. It can get things wrong. Anything that changes a server or a member is shown to you before it runs, and anything a model does is recorded against whoever asked for it.
What you are responsible for
You are responsible for what you ask the bot to do. An operation carried out because you asked for it is your action, recorded against your account, and a server’s administrators can see it. Asking the bot to do something you are not permitted to do does not make it permitted: the bot checks, and refuses.
Server administrators are responsible for how the bot is configured in their server, including which roles are treated as staff and what the bot is allowed to do on their behalf.
What we are responsible for
The bot is provided as it is, with no guarantee that it is available, or that a model’s judgement is correct. It is not a substitute for a moderator reading something themselves. Where the bot has acted wrongly and the record shows it, the record is the record: it is kept precisely so that mistakes can be found rather than argued about.
Ending it
Remove the bot from a server and it stops acting there immediately. What was configured is kept for a period afterwards so that a removal which turns out to be a mistake does not cost a year of settings, and is then deleted. Anyone may ask for their data to be deleted sooner, and it will be.
Changes
These terms are versioned. Changing them publishes a new version and asks you to accept it; it does not quietly apply to an acceptance you gave to something else. Every version anyone has accepted stays readable at its own address.
Accept these terms to let the assistant act on what you ask it for. Reading them does not need an account; accepting is recorded against yours.
The rest of it
Privacy statement, version 1. The two are published together and share a version number, because agreeing to terms without the statement of what they do with your data is agreeing to half of something.
