Acceptance of terms

By creating an account or using BareGPT services (web app, Chrome extension, or API), you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. These terms constitute a legal agreement between you and BareGPT LLC, a limited liability company. If you don't agree, please don't use our services. We may update these terms periodically, and your continued use constitutes acceptance of changes.

Permitted use

You may use BareGPT to analyze and improve writing that you authored or are authorized to review (e.g., as a teacher, editor, or with explicit permission). You may not use the service to process content you don't have rights to, violate intellectual property, or circumvent academic integrity policies without institutional authorization.

Account responsibility

You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and all activity under your account. Do not share login information or allow unauthorized access. Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized use. Accounts engaging in abuse, fraud, or violations may be suspended or terminated without refund.

Service limitations and disclaimers

BareGPT provides AI-powered writing analysis and coaching guidance, not definitive proof of authorship. Our AI detection scores are probabilistic and can produce false positives or false negatives. We make no guarantees about accuracy, outcomes, or acceptance by third parties (schools, employers, publishers). Always apply human judgment and verify results independently.

Subscription and billing

Paid subscriptions (Standard, Premium) renew automatically until canceled. You can cancel anytime through your account settings, effective at the end of the current billing period. We don't prorate partial months. Price changes will be communicated 30 days in advance. Failure to pay may result in service suspension.

Refund policy

Refunds are reviewed case-by-case and generally provided only for billing errors, duplicate charges, or significant service outages. Refund requests must be submitted within 30 days of the charge. We don't issue refunds for dissatisfaction with AI detection results, as accuracy varies by use case. Contact support with specific issues for review.

Intellectual property

You retain full ownership of content you submit to BareGPT. By using our service, you grant us a limited license to process, analyze, and store your content solely to provide our services. We don't claim ownership or use your content for other purposes without consent. BareGPT's software, algorithms, branding, and documentation are our proprietary property.

Prohibited conduct

You may not: (1) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract our algorithms; (2) use automated tools to scrape or access our service at scale without authorization; (3) submit malicious content, spam, or content intended to attack or deceive our systems; (4) resell or redistribute our service without a partnership agreement; (5) use the service for illegal activities or to violate others' rights.

Limitation of liability

BareGPT is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for:

Academic, professional, or legal consequences resulting from use of our AI detection or coaching features
False positives, false negatives, or any inaccuracies in analysis results
Service interruptions, data loss, or security breaches beyond our reasonable control
Indirect, incidental, or consequential damages exceeding your subscription fees paid in the last 12 months

Dispute resolution

If you have a dispute with BareGPT LLC ("BareGPT", "we", "us"), please contact us first at support@baregpt.com to resolve it informally. If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the American Arbitration Association's rules, waiving the right to class actions. This agreement is governed by the laws of the United States.
