Terms of Service

Last updated: April 19, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of streamrift.ai and the related chat and API services (the “Service”) operated by StreamRift (“StreamRift”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). By accessing or using the Service you (“you”, “user”) agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Read carefully. The Service is provided AS-IS, with no warranties. It forwards your prompts to open-source language models without adding or removing safety tuning. You are responsible for what you send and for anything you do with what comes back. Disputes are handled by binding arbitration on the election of either party. By using the Service you waive class-action rights.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least eighteen (18) years old and competent to form a binding contract to use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms, in which case “you” refers to both you individually and that organization.

2. The Service & the Models

The Service provides access to third-party open-source large language models that StreamRift runs on its own hardware. As of the date above, the Service is supported by:

Google Gemma 4 (released by Google under the Gemma Terms of Use)
IBM Granite 3.1 (released by IBM under the Apache 2.0 license)

StreamRift runs these models as published by their respective creators. We do not add additional safeguards, content filters, policy wrappers, or instruction layers on top of what the model vendors ship, and we do not remove, disable, strip, or otherwise modify any safety tuning, refusal behavior, or alignment training that the vendors included. The model you interact with behaves the way its creator trained it to behave — no more, no less.

We may add, replace, or retire models from this list without notice. The currently-served model set is always identified on the Service. Nothing in these Terms obligates StreamRift to serve any particular model at any particular time.

3. No Professional Advice

Model outputs are produced by statistical language models. They may be inaccurate, misleading, out-of-date, biased, offensive, or fabricated. Nothing produced by the Service is legal, medical, financial, tax, psychological, safety, or other professional advice, and no attorney-client, doctor-patient, fiduciary, or other professional relationship is created by your use of the Service. Do not rely on model outputs for any decision that has legal, medical, financial, or safety consequences. Consult a licensed professional.

4. Your Responsibility for Prompts & Outputs

You are solely responsible for (a) everything you send to the Service as a prompt, (b) everything the model returns to you in response, and (c) anything you do with a model output, including sharing, publishing, acting on, or distributing it. You bear all risk associated with your use of model outputs. You represent and warrant that your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and third-party rights in every jurisdiction you access the Service from.

5. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Service, and not to authorize or permit any third party to use the Service, to:

violate any applicable law or regulation, or any third party’s legal rights;
generate, solicit, or distribute child sexual abuse material, non-consensual intimate imagery, or content sexualizing minors in any form;
plan, facilitate, or carry out violence against any person, or the production or acquisition of weapons capable of mass casualties (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or cyber-physical);
conduct unauthorized access, intrusion, or denial-of-service against any computer system, network, or account;
generate content that defames, harasses, stalks, doxxes, threatens, or impersonates any specific real person in a way likely to cause harm or deceive;
produce material designed to facilitate fraud, identity theft, election interference, or targeted political microtargeting based on protected characteristics;
make automated decisions about real people (hiring, credit, insurance, housing, criminal-justice risk, or similar) based on model outputs;
reverse engineer, scrape, or attempt to extract model weights, training data, or infrastructure credentials from the Service;
resell, sublicense, or rebrand the Service as your own offering without a written agreement with StreamRift;
interfere with, circumvent, or disable any security, rate-limit, wallet, authentication, or billing mechanism of the Service.

StreamRift may investigate suspected violations and may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that StreamRift believes in good faith violates this Section or otherwise harms the Service, other users, or StreamRift. Because the Service does not inspect prompts or responses for content, enforcement of this Section happens after the fact, if at all. That does not relieve you of your obligation to comply.

6. Accounts & Authentication

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials — including passwords, wallet private keys, Discord OAuth tokens, and API keys — and for all activity occurring under your account. Notify us immediately if you suspect a credential has been compromised. You may not share your account or credentials with any other person.

7. Privacy & Logging

StreamRift does not store the content of your conversations with the Service. Prompts and responses are processed in memory and, outside of transient network buffers, are not written to any persistent store operated by StreamRift. StreamRift does retain account metadata (identifier, plan, wallet balance, timestamps) and request metadata (token counts, model alias, backend id, duration, error status) for billing, operations, abuse response, and service improvement.

The Service is provided ephemerally. You should not assume any prompt or response is recoverable after the request completes. You remain solely responsible for keeping your own records of any output you intend to rely on.

8. Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of your prompts. As between you and StreamRift, you may use model outputs that you generate for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by these Terms, subject to the upstream model licenses (Gemma Terms of Use; Apache 2.0 for Granite). StreamRift makes no representation as to the copyrightability, novelty, or non-infringement of any model output. Model outputs may reproduce or closely resemble material present in the training data of the underlying models; you are responsible for your own clearance before any downstream use.

The Service itself — including source code, UI, branding, and the “StreamRift” name — is StreamRift’s property and is licensed to you only for use of the Service in accordance with these Terms. No rights in StreamRift trademarks are granted.

9. Billing, Refunds & Plan Changes

Paid plans, if any, are billed in advance through our payment processor (currently Stripe). Fees are non-refundable except where required by law. You may cancel at any time; cancellation stops future billing but does not refund the current billing period. Free-tier limits (including the token wallet and refill rate) are part of the Service definition and may change without notice, including retroactively to accounts currently at zero balance. StreamRift may price, reprice, introduce, or retire any plan tier at any time.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service, all model outputs, and all content accessible through the Service are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, availability, and any warranty arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade. StreamRift does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that any output will be accurate or useful. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties; in such jurisdictions the foregoing exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall StreamRift, its owners, employees, contractors, service providers, or model vendors be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other theory, even if StreamRift has been advised of the possibility of such damages. StreamRift’s total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the greater of (a) one hundred United States dollars (US$100) or (b) the total fees you paid to StreamRift in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. The limitations in this Section apply to the fullest extent permitted by law and survive termination of these Terms.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless StreamRift and its owners, employees, contractors, and service providers from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) any prompt you submit or output you receive; (c) your breach of these Terms or violation of any applicable law or third-party right; or (d) any content, decision, or action you produce or take based on a model output. StreamRift reserves the right, at your expense, to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with StreamRift’s defense.

13. Binding Arbitration & Class-Action Waiver

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.

13.1 Informal resolution. Before bringing a formal proceeding, you and StreamRift agree to try in good faith to resolve any dispute by contacting the other party in writing and allowing thirty (30) days for resolution.

13.2 Election to arbitrate. If the dispute is not resolved under Section 13.1,either party may, at that party’s sole election, require the dispute to be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration instead of in court. The other party must comply with that election. Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, or by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules if the AAA is unavailable. The arbitration shall take place in Clark County, Nevada, or, at the claimant’s election, by videoconference or on the documents alone. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

13.3 Class-action waiver.You and StreamRift agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. An arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If this class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to any claim, then that claim shall be severed from arbitration and brought in the courts identified in Section 14, while the remainder of the arbitration agreement shall remain enforceable.

13.4 Small-claims carve-out.Notwithstanding Section 13.2, either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court for any dispute within that court’s jurisdiction, provided it remains in that court and does not seek class or representative relief.

13.5 Injunctive relief. Either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property, confidential information, or security of the Service pending resolution of the underlying dispute.

13.6 Opt-out of arbitration. You may opt out of the arbitration and class-waiver provisions in this Section 13 by sending written notice to legal@streamrift.ai within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms, stating your account identifier and that you opt out. Opt-out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.

14. Governing Law & Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 13, the state and federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claim not subject to arbitration, and you and StreamRift each consent to personal jurisdiction there.

15. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. StreamRift may suspend or terminate your account or access to the Service at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 3–5, 8, 10–14, and this Section 15) shall survive.

16. Changes to These Terms

StreamRift may modify these Terms at any time by updating this page. The “Last updated” date reflects the current effective version. Your continued use of the Service after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to a change, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service.

17. Miscellaneous

These Terms are the entire agreement between you and StreamRift regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder shall remain in full force. No waiver of any term is a waiver of any other term, and failure to enforce any term is not a waiver of the right to do so later. You may not assign these Terms without StreamRift’s prior written consent; StreamRift may assign these Terms freely. Notices to StreamRift may be sent to legal@streamrift.ai.

These Terms are provided without representation as to their legal sufficiency in any particular jurisdiction. They are drafted to be maximally protective of StreamRift and minimally committal regarding model behavior. You should consult a lawyer before relying on them.
