Premium subscriptions are available at $10.00/month or $100.00/year. Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled through your account settings or by contacting support. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period. No partial refunds are provided for mid-cycle cancellations.

Content and Conduct

You are solely responsible for all content you submit, including journal entries, goals, and personal information. You agree not to:

Intellectual Property

Shadow Ember and its content, features, and functionality are owned by us and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You retain ownership of your personal content but grant us a license to use it to provide our services.

Data Privacy and Security

Your privacy is important to us. We collect, use, and protect your information as described in our Privacy Policy. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, but cannot guarantee absolute security.

Therapeutic Disclaimer

Important: Shadow Ember is not a substitute for professional therapy, counseling, or medical advice. Our AI-powered insights are for personal growth and educational purposes only. If you're experiencing severe mental health symptoms, depression, anxiety, or thoughts of self-harm, please consult with qualified healthcare providers or contact emergency services immediately.

Service Availability

We strive to maintain service availability but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the service with reasonable notice. Planned maintenance will be communicated in advance when possible.

Age Requirements

Shadow Ember is intended for users aged 18 and older. Users under 18 must have parental consent to use our services. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Limitation of Liability

Shadow Ember shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages resulting from your use of the service. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for the service in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these terms will be resolved through binding arbitration rather than court proceedings, except for small claims court matters. You waive the right to participate in class action lawsuits.

Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email or service notifications. Continued use of the service after changes constitute acceptance of the new terms.
