Terms of Use

Effective Date: May 12, 2025

Beta Testing Phase

Jocasta is currently in beta. During this phase, data may fluctuate as we optimize our systems. Your settings and preferences may reset during maintenance windows, and some features might be temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your understanding and feedback.

Welcome to Jocasta, your intelligent AI assistant engineered to help you make sense of private documents, study materials, and everything in between — with elegance, speed, and just a touch of wit. These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of the Jocasta platform (“we,” “us,” “our”). By accessing or using Jocasta, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you're not okay with that, we respectfully recommend you close this tab — no hard feelings.

1. Beta Phase Acknowledgment

Jocasta is currently in beta. That means:

  • Things may break, improve, or disappear as we fine-tune features.
  • We may collect diagnostic data to identify bugs and understand how users interact with Jocasta.
  • You may experience bugs, and we’d appreciate your feedback (human debugging is underrated).
  • Expect rapid iteration. It’s part of the magic.

Your feedback is essential to Jocasta’s growth — thank you for helping us build the future of personal AI.

2. Use of AI Technology

By default, Jocasta uses Google Gemini as the underlying AI for chat interactions, document summarization, and embedding. However, we believe in giving you choice. You may optionally connect and use your own AI model provider, such as:

  • OpenAI
  • Mistral
  • Local LLMs via platforms like Ollama

When using a custom provider, your data will be processed through their systems, subject to their terms. Jocasta does not assume responsibility for third-party behavior — please review their policies accordingly.

3. Integrations

Jocasta offers integrations with select third-party services to enhance your workflow. This may include (but is not limited to):
  • Cloud storage providers (e.g., Google Drive, Dropbox)
  • Note-taking tools (e.g., Notion, Obsidian)
  • Learning platforms or productivity apps
  • Self-hosted AI Models
  • Other third-party services that enhance your experience

You control which integrations are enabled. When connected, Jocasta will request only the minimum data required to deliver features (e.g., file access, syncing notes). Your data stays private and is never sold.

4. Your Responsibilities

To keep things civil and secure, you agree to:

  • Use Jocasta only for lawful and ethical purposes
  • Refrain from uploading content that infringes on copyrights, violates privacy, or includes malicious code
  • Not attempt to interfere with, reverse-engineer, or exploit the service
  • Maintain the confidentiality of your account credentials

You are responsible for all activity under your account — even if the AI gets too clever for its own good.

5. Content Ownership

You retain full ownership of all documents, files, and content you upload to Jocasta. We do not use your private content for AI training. Ever.

You grant us a limited license to process, store, and index your content solely to provide core functionality (e.g., chat responses, search, summarization).

6. Children's Privacy

Jocasta is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

7. Intellectual Property

All software, designs, branding, and core functionality are the property of Jocasta AI. You agree not to replicate, redistribute, or repackage the service unless given explicit written permission (and a digital high-five).

8. Limitation of Liability

While Jocasta strives for accuracy and intelligence, it is still powered by machines (however charming they may be).

We are not liable for:

  • Inaccurate or unexpected AI responses
  • Data loss or corruption
  • Downtime or service interruptions
  • Any direct or indirect damages, including those caused by reliance on AI output

Always review critical information before acting on it.

9. Account Suspension or Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account for:

  • Violation of these Terms
  • Abuse of AI systems or integrations
  • Actions that compromise the privacy, security, or reliability of the platform

You can also delete your account at any time. We'll ensure your data is deleted responsibly upon request.

10. Updates to Terms

We may revise these Terms as we expand Jocasta’s features or move out of beta.

If we make significant changes, you’ll be notified via email or within the app. Your continued use implies acceptance of the latest version.
