1. Introduction
- Service Description: “Persona” is a Discord bot that enables users to engage in immersive role-playing by generating character-based text responses using ChatGPT, powered by OpenAI.
- Acceptance of Terms: By using “Persona”, you agree to these terms.
2. User Responsibilities
- Account Requirements: No personal account is required to use the bot. However, user IDs are retained to track who created the personas for editing purposes as part of the bot’s normal functionality.
- User Conduct: Users must not misuse the bot, engage in harmful or illegal activities, or create personas with offensive content.
3. Usage Restrictions
- Prohibited Activities: Users must not exploit the bot for unauthorized data access, manipulation, or use it to generate harmful, offensive, or illegal content.
- User Liability: By using the Persona bot, users explicitly acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for any content they create, including personas, and for any consequences or damages that arise from such content. This includes, but is not limited to, any legal claims, liabilities, costs, or expenses resulting from the creation or use of content that violates laws or the rights of others. The bot’s creators, operators, and associated entities bear no responsibility for any illegal or harmful actions taken by users through the use of the bot.
- Content Violations: Prompts that violate these terms will be recorded and reviewed to ensure compliance. Users who create illegal or harmful content may face legal action and will be held liable for any resulting damages.
- Termination of Service: We reserve the right to terminate access to the bot for violating these terms.
4. Intellectual Property

- Limitation of Liability: In no event shall we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly.
6. Data Handling
