Terms of Service

By accessing or using Daylogue ("Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Service.

These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service. By using Daylogue, you represent that you are at least 13 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

Daylogue is a system for self-understanding. Pattern journaling is how it reads you. It is not therapy and is not a replacement for professional care.

Daylogue provides:

• Manual journaling, curated prompts, structured check-ins, and optional AI conversations
• Rules-based patterns and, when you choose AI features, generated narratives and insights
• Historical data visualization and exports
• Enterprise features for team participation tracking (participation rates and reported themes only — not individual emotional scores)
• Optional sharing of a limited set of signals with a provider you name and authorize

AI Disclosure: When you choose an AI conversation or generated feature, you are interacting with an AI system, not a human. Daylogue identifies those features in the product. Manual journals, curated prompts, Quick check-ins, structured fields, manual tags, and eligible rules-based patterns do not require generative AI.

The Service is provided "as is" and we reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time.

To use certain features of the Service, you must create an account. You agree to:

• Provide accurate and complete information when creating your account
• Maintain the security of your password and account
• Promptly notify us of any unauthorized use of your account
• Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or engage in fraudulent activity.

Your privacy is important to us. Our collection and use of personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

Your Data: You retain ownership of all content you submit to the Service, including journal entries and check-in responses. By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to store, process, and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service.

Encryption: Your data in transit is protected by TLS encryption, and your account is protected by strict per-user access controls and row-level isolation, subject only to any sharing you have separately authorized. Where an account has an encryption key, vault entries are stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM; there is no setting in the Service that turns this on or off. Vault storage protects your entries from routine staff access and from most data breaches, but it does not guarantee that we can never access that content, including in response to valid legal process. Entries stored outside the vault are stored in readable form on our servers. AI-generated summaries and structured metrics are stored separately to power features like narratives and insights, and are always stored in readable form. The Service is not end-to-end encrypted.

AI Processing Choice: Adult accounts start with AI features enabled. No AI mode can be turned on later from Settings. Accounts for ages 13–17 remain in No AI mode automatically. No AI mode prevents newly submitted content from being sent to Daylogue's generative AI, embedding, transcription, voice, or image-analysis providers on supported web, iPhone, and Apple Watch experiences. No AI mode is not a device-local or end-to-end-encrypted mode: entries still sync to and are stored by Daylogue. Turning AI features back on requires an affirmative choice and applies only to future content; content protected while No AI mode was active is not backfilled. Rules-based crisis matching remains available without a provider call and may produce false positives.

When you share with someone: We do not show your account to anyone else unless you authorize it. If you use Daylogue alongside a coach, consultant, therapist, or similar provider, you may separately authorize us to disclose a specific, limited set of signals to a person you name. That authorization is a separate document you sign in the product. It names the recipient, lists exactly what is disclosed, and you can withdraw it at any time in one step. Your journal entries, voice recordings, transcripts, conversations with Daylogue, and check-in times are never included. Accepting these Terms is not that authorization and does not by itself disclose anything to anyone.

You agree not to use the Service to:

• Violate any applicable laws or regulations
• Infringe on the rights of others
• Transmit any malicious code or interfere with the Service
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service
• Use the Service for any commercial purpose without our consent
• Impersonate any person or entity
• Harass, abuse, or harm another person

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action against anyone who violates these provisions.

Free Tier: Basic features are available at no cost.

Pro Subscription: Additional features are available through a paid subscription. By subscribing, you agree to pay the applicable fees as described at the time of purchase.

Billing: Subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Your subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel before the renewal date.

Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds are provided for partial billing periods.

Price Changes: We may change subscription prices with 30 days notice. Continued use after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new price.

Program Name: Daylogue SMS Check-ins

By opting in to SMS check-ins, you agree to receive recurring automated text messages from Daylogue at the phone number you provide. Consent is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services.

Message Frequency: Up to 5 messages per day (1 outbound check-in prompt plus up to 4 conversational follow-ups per session).

Message and Data Rates: Message and data rates may apply. Check with your mobile carrier for details.

How to Opt In: You opt in exclusively through the Daylogue app (daylogue.com) by navigating to Settings > SMS Check-ins, entering your phone number, verifying it with a one-time code, and toggling SMS check-ins ON. SMS is off by default. No messages are sent until you explicitly opt in. There is no web form, keyword, or checkout-based enrollment.

How to Opt Out: Reply **STOP** to any message to stop receiving texts. You can also disable SMS check-ins in your Daylogue app settings. After opting out, you will receive one final confirmation message. Reply START to re-subscribe.

Help: Reply **HELP** for support, or contact hello@daylogue.io.

Supported Carriers: Major US carriers are supported. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

Crisis handling: If your SMS conversation is identified as containing signs of a crisis, such as thoughts of suicide, self-harm, or immediate danger, Daylogue is designed to pause its usual data capture. This detection is automated and may not identify every instance.

Detection of crisis content is performed automatically. In No AI mode, this uses rules-based text matching without AI-assisted review. When AI processing is enabled, Daylogue may also use AI-assisted review. No human routinely reviews your message content as part of this automated flow.

If a crisis is detected, we will send you crisis resource information: 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (US), Crisis Text Line at 741741 (US), and findahelpline.com (international directory). The check-in session ends at that point. Daylogue does not provide crisis counseling or intervention, and does not contact emergency services, notify any third party, or take any action on your behalf in response to crisis content.

Privacy: Your phone number and message data are governed by our Privacy Policy. No mobile information, including phone numbers, SMS consent records, and opt-in/opt-out data, will be shared with or sold to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

The Service and its original content (excluding user content), features, and functionality are owned by Daylogue LLC and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Service without our explicit written permission.

Our trademarks and trade dress may not be used in connection with any product or service without our prior written consent.

Not Therapy: Daylogue is a system for self-understanding, not a therapist and not therapy. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It does not assess, diagnose, or treat any condition. Always seek the advice of qualified health providers with questions regarding medical conditions. Daylogue may be used alongside professional care but is not a replacement for it.

AI-Generated Content: When enabled, AI conversations, generated summaries, and narratives are informational only and may not always be accurate. You should not rely solely on AI-generated content for important decisions about your health, relationships, or professional life. Manual entries and rules-based patterns are not AI-generated.

No Warranty: The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

Automated Crisis Detection Limitations: Daylogue's automated crisis content detection is designed to pause data capture and provide crisis resources when crisis content is detected. It may not identify every instance. Daylogue does not provide crisis counseling or intervention.

The AI-generated-content disclaimer applies to output generated by Daylogue's AI systems. Crisis resources are an automated safety handoff, not an assessment, diagnosis, or emergency-response service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Daylogue LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits or lost business opportunity, arising from:

• Your use of or inability to use the Service
• Any interruption, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service
• Any bugs, viruses, or other harmful code transmitted through the Service
• Any content produced by AI features you have chosen to use

Our maximum liability: Our total liability to you, for all claims arising from these Terms or the Service taken together, will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or (b) two hundred fifty U.S. dollars (250 USD).

The 250 USD minimum applies whether or not you have ever paid us anything. If your access to Daylogue is paid for by a coach, consultant, therapist, employer, school, or anyone else, you have the same minimum as every other user. We set a fixed floor deliberately, so that this section limits our liability rather than eliminating it.

What this section does not limit: Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for any of the following:

• Fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful injury, or gross negligence
• Death or personal injury caused by our negligence
• Statutory damages available to you under the California Consumer Privacy Act, the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, or any other law that does not permit those rights to be limited or waived by agreement
• Any other liability that applicable law does not permit us to limit or exclude

If any part of this section is held unenforceable, that part is severed and the remainder of this section continues to apply to the fullest extent the law allows.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Daylogue LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from third-party claims, damages, losses, and reasonable attorneys fees arising from:

• Content you submit to the Service that infringes or violates the rights of another person
• Your violation of these Terms or of any applicable law
• Your use of the Service for a commercial purpose without our consent

This section does not apply to claims arising from our own acts or omissions, and it does not apply to any user under 18 years of age.

If we ask you to cover a claim, we will notify you promptly, give you control of its defense and settlement, and cooperate with you at your expense. You may not settle a claim in a way that imposes an obligation on us without our written consent.

If someone else pays for your access: If a coach, consultant, therapist, employer, school, or other organization pays for your access to Daylogue, this section does not make you responsible for that organization's conduct, or for how it uses information you have authorized us to share with it. Our separate agreement with that organization covers those things.

Your total obligation under this section will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose or two hundred fifty U.S. dollars (250 USD), except for claims arising from your fraud or willful misconduct.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Terms on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.

Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, please discontinue use of the Service.

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the Service immediately, without prior notice, for any reason, including breach of these Terms.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease immediately. You may export your data before termination. After termination, we may delete your data in accordance with our data retention policies.

Please read this section carefully: It affects how disputes between you and Daylogue are resolved, and it limits your ability to bring or join a class action. You can opt out within 30 days, and opting out costs you nothing.

Talk to us first: Before starting arbitration or a lawsuit, you agree to tell us about the dispute in writing at legal@daylogue.io, and we agree to do the same for you. Your notice should describe the problem and what you want. Both sides then have 60 days to try to resolve it informally. This is a required first step for both of us, and the deadline for bringing any claim pauses while it runs.

Individual arbitration: If we cannot resolve a dispute in those 60 days, you and Daylogue agree to resolve it through binding individual arbitration rather than in court, except as stated below. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, which are published at adr.org. The arbitrator, not a court, decides the merits of the dispute. Questions about whether this section is valid or enforceable are decided by a court, not the arbitrator.

We pay the costs: For any arbitration you begin, you pay only the consumer filing fee set by the AAA rules, and Daylogue pays all remaining filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees. If the arbitrator finds your claim was frivolous, the AAA rules on fee allocation apply.

No class actions: You and Daylogue each agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator has no authority to hear claims on a class or representative basis or to consolidate the claims of more than one person. If a court decides this paragraph is unenforceable, then this paragraph alone is void and the dispute proceeds in court — the rest of this section is unaffected, and the two carve-outs below remain in place regardless.

Claims that are not arbitrated: Two kinds of claim are outside this section entirely and were never subject to arbitration. First, either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies. Second, a claim for public injunctive relief — relief aimed at stopping unlawful practices affecting the general public — may be brought in court. Nothing in this section waives, limits, or delays your right to seek public injunctive relief in any forum, and if the rest of this section were ever held unenforceable, that right would still stand.

Many similar claims at once: If 25 or more claims of a similar nature are filed against Daylogue by or with the help of the same lawyers or coordinated group, all of those claims will be processed under the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules. If a smaller set of cases is heard first to help resolve the rest, the outcomes of those cases do not bind anyone who was not a party to them, everyone in the group has access to the record, the deadline for bringing a claim pauses for everyone waiting, and anyone whose claim is not resolved keeps the right to their own individual arbitration.

If you are under 18: If you are between 13 and 17, this section applies only where a parent or guardian has agreed to these Terms on their own behalf as well as yours. It does not limit any right you have under California law to disaffirm an agreement you entered into as a minor.

How to opt out: You can opt out of this entire section by emailing arbitration-opt-out@daylogue.io within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, or within 30 days of accepting a version that first added this section. Include the email address on your account. That is all that is required. Opting out has no effect on your account, your access, or your price, and does not affect any other part of these Terms. If you opt out, disputes are resolved in court as described in Section 15.

Existing disputes: This section applies only to disputes arising after you accept it.

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

Subject to Section 14, any dispute not resolved by arbitration — including a claim for public injunctive relief, a claim brought in small claims court, and any dispute involving a user who has opted out of arbitration — shall be resolved exclusively in the courts located in Los Angeles County, California.
