Terms of Service

Status: in force. Written by the operators of this service, not by a lawyer.

This document was drafted in-house and has not been reviewed by counsel. We are telling you that rather than leaving you to assume otherwise, because you are entitled to know how much weight to put on it. What it does have going for it is that every factual claim about how the software behaves was checked against the implementation instead of adapted from a template — where the system does not do something a policy would normally promise, this says so.

If you are relying on this for a decision that matters, get your own advice.

1. Who we are

showusyourprompts.com ("the Service") is operated by Aleph Consulting LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("we", "us"). The Service is a public, collaborative home for prompts: they can be versioned, forked, proposed against, reviewed, and merged.

The software running the Service is free software, licensed AGPL-3.0-or-later. You may run your own instance. These Terms govern this deployment only — they say nothing about, and impose nothing on, an instance you host yourself.

2. Accounts

Accounts are provided through IDConnect, our identity provider. You are responsible for what happens under your account.

We may suspend or deactivate an account that breaches these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy. Deactivation immediately revokes all of that account's active sessions.

You must be at least 16 years old to hold an account. Sixteen rather than the US COPPA floor of 13 because we treat EU and UK users as in scope (see the Privacy Policy), and in much of the EU an account for a 13- to 15-year-old requires verified parental consent. We have not built consent-verification machinery, and setting an age we could not actually honour would be a promise rather than a policy.

If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 16, we will deactivate it.

3. Your content

You keep ownership of what you publish. You are responsible for having the right to publish it.

The licence you grant us

By publishing content on the Service you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce and display it, for the purpose of operating the Service. This licence exists so we can lawfully serve your prompt to the people you published it for. It ends when you remove the content, except for copies retained as described in the Privacy Policy.

The licence you grant other users

This is the part worth reading carefully, because it is the point of the Service.

Publishing a public prompt repository means other users may read it, fork it, and propose changes. The terms on which they may *reuse* your prompt are set by the licence you declare in your prompt.yaml manifest — see CONTENT-LICENSING.md. If you declare a licence that permits reuse, you cannot later withdraw that permission for copies already made under it.

Forking is a first-class operation here. A fork is a genuine copy: removing your original does not remove forks of it.

Visibility

• Public — listed in discovery and readable by anyone.
• Unlisted — not surfaced in browse, but not access-controlled. Treat an unlisted repository as public-if-someone-has-the-link.
• Private — readable only by you and platform staff.

Do not use this Service to store confidential material. Hosting confidential prompts is an explicit non-goal (ROADMAP.md).

4. Our content and marks

The software is AGPL-3.0-or-later. Trademark use is governed separately by TRADEMARKS.md — the software licence does not grant trademark rights.

5. Acceptable use

The Acceptable Use Policy (ACCEPTABLE_USE.md) is part of these Terms.

6. Moderation

We may remove or hide content, and suspend accounts, where we believe the Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy have been breached, or where we are legally required to.

Moderation actions are recorded, with a reason. Where we remove content you published, we will tell you what was removed and why, unless we are legally prevented from doing so.

If you think we got it wrong

There is no appeal button in the software, and we would rather say so than imply a process that does not exist. Write to the contact address in section 12 and a person will re-read the decision. Include what was actioned and why you think it was mistaken.

What we commit to is a human re-reading it, not a particular outcome and not a deadline. If a re-read changes the decision we restore the content and correct the record; the original action stays in the moderation log, because a log you edit is not a log.

If this becomes a real workload we will build a proper appeals queue rather than keep routing it through an inbox. Until then, the inbox is the whole mechanism.

7. Availability

The Service is provided as-is. We do not promise it will be available, uninterrupted, or that data will never be lost. Keep your own copies of anything you care about — the software is designed so you can.

8. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or end your access for breach of these Terms.

Ending your access does not automatically delete content you published, where others have forked it or where retention is required — see the Privacy Policy.

9. Liability

No warranty

The Service and the software behind it are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied — including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that any content on it — including any prompt, evaluation result or metric published by anyone — is accurate, safe, lawful, or fit for the use you have in mind. Prompts published here are other people's work. Evaluate them before you rely on them.

This mirrors the warranty disclaimer of the AGPL-3.0-or-later licence the software is distributed under. Running your own instance does not change it.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither Aleph Consulting LLC nor its members, employees or contractors are liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, nor for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service — whether the claim is framed in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, and whether or not we were told such damage was possible.

Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve months before the claim, or one hundred United States dollars (US$100). The Service is currently offered free of charge, so for most users the first figure is zero and the second is the operative one.

Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded — including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any right you have as a consumer under the law of the place you live that cannot be waived by agreement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or of incidental or consequential damages, so parts of the two sections above may not apply to you.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced before they take effect.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the law of the State of Nevada, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

12. Contact

Write to [email protected].

It is an alias, not a mailbox — mail routes into the firm's triage inbox rather than an address nobody reads. A real mailbox would silently override the catch-all and orphan it, which is the failure this arrangement avoids.
