1. Operator and scope
These are draft Terms of Use for YIKES, operated by Ezhara LLC. They cover the current AI-assisted dating conversation product, including Decode, Ask the Guys, Draft, roster and saved-history tools. They are for owner and legal review and are not yet adopted. An effective date and acceptance process must be confirmed before launch.
The accompanying Privacy Policy draft describes the current handling of submissions and account data. These Terms do not authorize undisclosed data uses or override rights that cannot legally be waived.
2. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 18 and legally capable of agreeing to these Terms where you live. You confirm this yourself when you create an account or before your first AI request; YIKES relies on that confirmation and does not independently verify age. Do not confirm falsely, use someone else’s account or supply misleading account information. If we learn an account belongs to someone under 18, access may be restricted or the account closed. Owner review item: the process for handling reports of underage accounts.
An account is required to invoke AI and save cloud roster/history data. Guests may browse and keep browser-only data. Keep your login and device secure, and do not share access tokens or passwords. Use the password-reset and account-deletion controls when appropriate.
3. What YIKES is — and is not
YIKES offers AI-generated opinions, explanations and possible replies for reflection and entertainment. Chad, Dad and Grandad are generated perspectives, not real people reviewing your situation. Scores and pattern summaries are interpretations of the material provided, not verified facts about a person.
YIKES is not therapy, medical or legal advice, professional relationship counseling, a background-check service, or an emergency or safety-monitoring service. It cannot establish whether someone is truthful, safe, faithful or suitable for a relationship, or know their private thoughts. You remain responsible for your decisions and for any message you send.
If you or someone else faces immediate danger, contact local emergency services or an appropriate crisis resource directly. Do not wait for an AI response. The app is not monitored as an emergency channel.
4. AI limitations and review of replies
AI can misunderstand speaker roles, omit context, misread a screenshot, reflect bias or produce inaccurate, incomplete or inappropriate output. Similar inputs may produce different answers; different users may receive similar wording. An output score is not a diagnosis or proof of intent.
Review and edit every drafted reply before sending it. No response is sent automatically by the current app. A confident tone does not make a generated claim reliable. Do not use an analysis as the sole basis for an important safety, legal, health or relationship decision.
5. Your submissions and other people’s privacy
Submit only material you have an appropriate lawful right to share and have processed by the services described in the Privacy Policy. Respect confidentiality, privacy, intellectual property and applicable recording or communications laws. Receiving a private message does not by itself establish a right to disclose it to an AI service.
Use the minimum relevant content. Remove identifiers, unrelated messages and unnecessary sensitive information. Do not upload sexual content involving minors, nonconsensual intimate images, account credentials or identity documents. Do not submit another person’s sensitive material without an appropriate legal basis.
You retain any rights you already have in your submissions. To provide the features you request, you authorize Ezhara LLC and its processing services to receive, process, transmit and, when you choose to save, store that content. This permission is for operating those features, not a claim of ownership or an undisclosed marketing license. Third-party rights continue to apply.
6. Acceptable use
Do not use YIKES to harass, threaten, stalk, coerce, expose private information, impersonate someone, or exploit a person. Do not use it to generate unlawful content or to automate abusive messages.
Do not bypass authentication, usage limits, ownership controls or safety protections; create accounts to evade limits; access another account’s information; interfere with the service; or introduce malicious files. These restrictions do not prohibit lawful security research performed under an agreed authorization or rights that applicable law protects.
The service may reject requests or pause AI access when usage, safety, provider availability or account verification prevents processing. The current app does not promise a particular human moderation or appeal workflow; Ezhara LLC must establish appropriate abuse-reporting and account-action procedures before launch.
7. Free allowances and service availability
The current free configuration allows 3 Decode requests, 3 Ask the Guys requests and 3 Draft requests per account per UTC calendar month. Shared short-window defaults allow 2 AI reservations in 60 seconds and 5 in an hour across the three features, with one active request per account. These centralized limits are configurable; check the current app feedback for availability and reset timing.
A request that obtains an AI reservation counts even if generation fails or you cancel it. A request rejected before reservation does not use a monthly allowance. Deleting saved history does not refund usage. Short-window rejections show when you can try again; the app does not automatically repeat billed requests.
AI features depend on network, hosting, account and model services and may be interrupted, restricted or unavailable. The current app offers no guaranteed response time, uptime, correctness or continued free allowance. Applicable statutory rights remain unaffected.
8. Saving, deletion and sharing
You decide whether to save generated results to your roster, and person-linked saving still asks separately. Optional private History is off by default and, when enabled, automatically saves future successful Decode and Draft generated results for your account. It omits full source messages, screenshots and roster context, though generated evidence can contain brief excerpts. Later edits are not silently archived. Raw screenshot image files are not persisted by the current app, but screenshots are transmitted for analysis and third-party processing is described in the Privacy Policy.
Browser guest data is not backed up to your account. Archive is not deletion. Deleting a roster person removes associated saved history and receipts; deleting all saved data keeps the account and preferences; account deletion also removes active account records and usage metadata. Deletion can partially complete if a step fails, and does not promise immediate removal from provider logs, backups or copies you shared.
Be careful when copying or sharing results. YIKES does not grant you rights to publish someone else’s private messages, name, image or personal information.
9. Product and output rights
Ezhara LLC and its licensors retain rights in the YIKES name, design and software. You may use the app for its intended lawful purposes; these draft Terms do not transfer the product’s intellectual property to you.
Generated output may not be unique, factually correct or eligible for exclusive intellectual-property protection. Any rights you may have in output remain subject to applicable law and third-party rights. The app makes no promise that a reply is legally safe to publish or that no one else will receive similar output.
10. No current paid subscription
Paid billing is not enabled in this version. YIKES Plus and other “coming soon” references are not an offer to charge you and do not enroll you in a subscription.
If paid services are introduced, Ezhara LLC must disclose the price, billing interval, renewal behavior, cancellation method, trial conditions and applicable refund terms before purchase and obtain any legally required consent. No future pricing, renewal or refund policy is established by this draft.
11. Disclaimers, responsibility and disputes — legal review required
The limitations above describe the current product, not a waiver of mandatory consumer rights. No outcome, factual accuracy, private-intent assessment or safety result is guaranteed. Use reasonable judgment and seek qualified help when needed.
No governing law, venue, mandatory arbitration, class-action waiver, indemnity obligation or monetary liability cap has been selected in this draft. Ezhara LLC and its legal reviewer must decide whether any such terms are appropriate and enforceable for the intended users and locations. Do not assume a broad disclaimer eliminates legal responsibilities.
Support, privacy requests, intellectual-property concerns and misuse reports go to yikesapp.support@gmail.com. The owner still must approve an account restriction/dispute process, confirm the channel is monitored, and decide whether any legally required business contact details are added. No company address or jurisdiction beyond the contact email is claimed here.
12. Changes, acceptance and contact
Before launch, the owner and counsel must approve this draft, choose an effective date, confirm the 18+ self-attestation approach is adequate for the intended markets, keep the yikesapp.support@gmail.com contact channel available, and establish how users see and accept the final Terms. The current app does not record acceptance of this draft.
A final version should explain how material changes are announced and when renewed acceptance is needed. Ending use does not clear browser data or automatically delete your account; use the available controls. Any provisions that need to continue after account closure must be reviewed in the final Terms.
