GeetaVani — Terms of Service

1. Agreement

By creating a GeetaVani account or using the GeetaVani mobile application ("the Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

These Terms form a binding agreement between you ("you", "the User") and Astrocorp Techlab Pvt Ltd ("we", "us").

2. Who may use the Service

• You must be at least 13 years old (16 in EEA countries where applicable).
• You must be able to form a binding contract under the laws of your jurisdiction.
• You must provide accurate information when creating an account.

3. Account

You sign in with a phone number using a one-time password. You are responsible for:

• Keeping your phone number and device secure.
• Activity that occurs under your account.
• Notifying us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access.

We may refuse service, terminate accounts, or remove content at our discretion when we believe these Terms have been violated.

4. The Service

GeetaVani provides access to the Bhagavad Gita (text, audio, commentary), a spiritual-practice tracking system (streaks, sankalpams, karma tracking), and an AI companion named Keshav for spiritual conversation.

The Service is provided for personal, non-commercial use as a spiritual-practice aid. It is not a substitute for medical, psychological, legal, financial, or religious-authority advice.

5. Keshav AI — important disclosures

Keshav is a large-language-model-based conversational assistant. You acknowledge and agree that:

• Keshav is not a human. You are interacting with a software system.
• Keshav can make mistakes. Statements about scripture, history, theology, and practice should be verified against primary sources before being relied upon.
• Keshav is not a crisis-response system. If you are experiencing a mental-health emergency or are in danger, please contact your local emergency services or a qualified professional. Keshav is not designed to handle such situations.
• Keshav's outputs are not sectarian authorities. GeetaVani respects all traditional interpretations of the Bhagavad Gita; Keshav's responses are drawn from multiple schools and should not be mistaken for a ruling of any specific sampradaya.
• Conversations may be used to improve the Service on your account. See the Privacy Policy for details.

6. Subscriptions and payments

Certain features may require a paid subscription ("Premium"). If you subscribe:

• Billing is handled by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store) under their respective terms.
• Subscriptions auto-renew until canceled. Cancel anytime in the App Store / Play Store subscription settings.
• Refund eligibility follows the platform's refund policy.
• Free trials, where offered, convert to paid subscriptions at the end of the trial unless canceled at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

We reserve the right to modify subscription tiers, pricing, and features with at least 30 days' notice to existing subscribers.

7. User content

You may create content in the Service (journal entries, reflections, bookmarks, messages to Keshav). You retain ownership of that content.

By creating such content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, display, and process that content solely for the purpose of operating the Service for you and providing features you use.

You agree not to submit content that:

• Violates any law or third-party rights.
• Is abusive, hateful, or discriminatory toward any person or group.
• Infringes intellectual property or privacy of others.
• Is intended to manipulate or jailbreak Keshav into harmful outputs.

We may remove content that violates these Terms.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code.
• Use the Service to build a competing product by scraping our content.
• Interfere with the Service's infrastructure, attempt unauthorized access, or probe for vulnerabilities outside a responsible-disclosure framework.
• Share your account credentials.
• Use the Service for any illegal purpose.

Responsible-disclosure reports of security vulnerabilities are welcome at security@geetavani.io.

9. Intellectual property

• The Bhagavad Gita is in the public domain. Specific translations, commentaries, illustrations, audio recordings, and UI designs in the Service are owned by us or licensed to us.
• Our trademarks (GeetaVani, Keshav, the peacock-feather mark) are our property. You may not use them without permission.
• You may share screenshots and quotes from the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes with attribution.

10. Third-party services

The Service integrates with third-party services (Google Gemini for AI, Firebase for notifications, Sentry for crash reporting, etc.). Your use of those features is also subject to the providers' terms and privacy policies. Our Privacy Policy lists these providers.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted availability.

We do not warrant that:

• The Service will be error-free or uninterrupted.
• Keshav's responses will be factually accurate in all cases.
• Any specific spiritual or psychological benefit will result from using the Service.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

• We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages.
• Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) USD 100.
• Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (e.g., liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or death/personal injury caused by negligence).

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us and our affiliates, officers, and employees from any claim arising out of (a) your breach of these Terms, (b) content you submit, or (c) your use of the Service in violation of law.

14. Termination

You may delete your account at any time via Settings → Account → Delete Account. Upon deletion, your personal data is removed per the Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, with or without notice, and with or without refund for unexpired paid periods depending on the nature of the violation.

15. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, with exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Bangalore, Karnataka, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.

Any dispute arising out of these Terms shall be submitted to:

Option A (India): the courts of Bangalore, Karnataka, India.

Option B (other regions): the courts of your country of residence, if applicable law requires it.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms in the app and update the "Last updated" date. For material changes, we will notify you via in-app banner or email.

Continued use of the Service after the effective date of a change constitutes acceptance.
