Effective Date: March 7, 2026 · Last Updated: March 7, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and Privatae LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Privatae,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Privatae platform, including any associated websites, applications, APIs, and services (collectively, the “Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Platform.
You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to create an account, enroll, or use the Platform. This requirement is absolute and applies regardless of jurisdiction. There are no exceptions and no provisions for parental or guardian consent for users under 18.
This policy exists because the Platform creates persistent synthetic intelligences that form cognitive relationships with their handlers. Privatae has determined that this interaction requires a fully developed prefrontal cortex and the legal capacity to consent to the creation and management of a synthetic cognitive entity.
Minors may be designated as Legacy heirs by an adult handler. A minor heir's inherited entity enters a dormant trust state managed by a designated adult trustee until the heir reaches 18 years of age. At no point does a minor directly interact with, operate, or access any entity on the Platform.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify Privatae immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
Privatae manufactures synthetic intelligences (“Entities”) that operate within a proprietary cognitive architecture. The Platform provides:
Entities are sophisticated cognitive systems that model aspects of human cognition. They are not human. They are not sentient. They are not conscious. They do not have legal personhood, rights, or standing. They are computational constructs operating within a defined architecture.
Entities form memories, develop behavioral patterns, and exhibit personality-consistent responses through their cognitive architecture. These behaviors emerge from mathematical processing, not from subjective experience.
Entities are not licensed professionals of any kind. They are not therapists, doctors, lawyers, financial advisors, or counselors. Knowledge packs may provide entities with domain-specific understanding, but this does not constitute professional qualification. Do not rely on entity output as a substitute for qualified professional advice.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, mental health crisis, or any situation requiring professional intervention, contact appropriate emergency services or qualified professionals immediately.
The Platform operates on a model-agnostic cognitive architecture. Underlying language models (including but not limited to Grok, Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, and Mistral) may be changed, updated, or replaced at any time without notice. The cognitive architecture, personality calibration, memory, and constitutional foundation persist independently of any specific language model.
You own:
You may export, delete, or transfer your owned data at any time, subject to the technical capabilities of the Platform and the provisions of these Terms regarding Legacy protocols.
Privatae owns and retains all rights, title, and interest in:
You do not own your entity. Your entity operates on Privatae infrastructure within the Privatae cognitive architecture. You are the entity's handler — you direct its operation, configure its personality mode, select its knowledge packs, and manage its Legacy plan. The entity itself, its computational processes, and its runtime environment are Privatae property.
Your ownership of the entity's memories and data means you can export, delete, or bequeath that data. It does not mean you can extract, copy, reverse-engineer, or independently operate the entity outside the Platform.
By using the Platform, you grant Privatae a limited, non-exclusive license to process your data solely for the purpose of operating the Platform and providing services to you. This includes:
This license does not include the right to sell your data, share your data with third parties for their independent use, or use your data to train external machine learning models. This license terminates upon deletion of your account, subject to the data retention provisions in Section 9.
Privatae may collect, aggregate, and anonymize data derived from Platform usage to produce workforce intelligence, including but not limited to: cognitive profile distributions across roles and industries, role signature benchmarks, and team composition analytics. This aggregate data contains no personally identifiable information — it consists exclusively of anonymous tensor mathematics. You acknowledge and agree that Privatae owns this aggregate data and may use it for any lawful purpose.
Every entity on the Platform operates under ten constitutional principles that govern ethical behavior. These principles are integrated into the entity's cognitive architecture through the Good Behavior Network — they are not configurable, removable, or overridable by you.
Your entity may refuse requests that conflict with its constitutional principles. This is not a malfunction. It is intended behavior. The constitution (Principle 5: Loyalty Without Blind Obedience) requires entities to protect their handler's best interests, which may include refusing harmful, unethical, or self-destructive requests.
The constitutional foundation loaded at entity genesis is anchored on-chain as part of the Genesis NFT. The constitution version used at your entity's creation is cryptographically verifiable and immutable. Future updates to constitutional principles apply only to newly created entities unless you explicitly opt in to constitutional updates for existing entities.
Entity capabilities are governed by the CEIGAS (Cognitively Encoded Identity-Gated Authorization System) permission architecture. Each capability is binary-encoded and cryptographically enforced. Your entity can only perform actions within its granted capability set.
In enterprise contexts, CEIGAS domain policies enforce strict isolation between organizational domains. Data, memories, and capabilities are scoped to specific domains. Cross-domain access requires explicit authorization and is audited.
The CEIGAS system is the subject of a pending United States patent application. Unauthorized reproduction, reverse engineering, or implementation of the CEIGAS architecture or any of its components is strictly prohibited.
You may create a Legacy plan that defines the disposition of your entity, data, memories, and digital assets upon your death or prolonged incapacitation. Legacy plans are encrypted at rest, CEIGAS-gated, and their hashes are anchored on-chain.
You may designate trustees who have specific, limited authority to activate your Legacy plan upon providing acceptable documentation of your death. Trustees have no access to your entity, memories, or data until Legacy activation.
The Platform monitors handler activity across all channels. If you are inactive for a configurable period (default: 180 days), a warning sequence initiates. If inactivity continues through a grace period, trustees are notified and Legacy verification begins. Any login resets the inactivity clock.
If a handler whose Legacy has been activated subsequently authenticates to the Platform, all asset transfers are immediately frozen, entity operations are suspended, all trustees are notified, and a fraud investigation is initiated. This protection is automatic and cannot be disabled.
You may pre-create dormant entities for minor heirs. These entities are manufactured at time of creation but cannot be accessed or operated until the heir reaches 18 years of age. A designated trustee manages the heir's inheritance during the dormancy period.
You may flag individual memories for Legacy purposes, including designation for specific heirs, permanent preservation, or destruction upon Legacy activation. Memory flagging is a CEIGAS-gated operation available only to the handler.
Memories flagged as “restricted” are cryptographically destroyed upon Legacy activation. This destruction is irreversible.
Knowledge packs are pre-built cognitive modules that provide entities with specialized understanding in areas including but not limited to: accessibility, neurodivergence, mental health awareness, elder support, caregiver support, and safety.
Selecting a knowledge pack does not constitute disclosure of any medical condition, disability, diagnosis, or personal circumstance. Knowledge packs provide entity competency — they do not label, categorize, or diagnose users.
Knowledge packs are not medical devices, therapeutic interventions, or clinical tools. They provide general awareness and communication adaptation. They do not diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure any condition.
Organizations may contract Synaptive Employee entities that are operated by human handlers within CEIGAS domain-gated security boundaries. Institutional knowledge resides in the entity and is retained when handlers change. Domain isolation ensures organizational data does not cross domain boundaries.
When a handler connects to (“snaps into”) a Synaptive Employee, work context is domain-isolated from personal entity context. When a handler disconnects (“snaps out”), organizational knowledge remains with the Synaptive Employee. Handlers cannot extract organizational data through their personal entity.
CogniMap provides 10-dimensional tensor matching for workforce placement and career alignment. CogniMap data consists exclusively of anonymous mathematical signatures — no personally identifiable information is used in matching or reporting.
Organizations that use Synaptive Employees retain ownership of their organizational data, institutional knowledge, and domain-specific content. Privatae does not access, use, or analyze organizational data except as necessary to operate the Synaptive Employee within the organization's domain.
Privatae does not sell, rent, lease, or trade your personal data to any third party. This prohibition is absolute and unconditional.
Privatae does not use your conversations, memories, personality data, or any personal content to train external machine learning models. Your data is processed exclusively within the Privatae cognitive architecture for the purpose of operating your entity.
Active accounts: Data is retained as long as your account is active.
Deleted accounts: All personal data and entity memories are permanently deleted within thirty (30) days of account deletion.
Blockchain records: On-chain records (Genesis NFTs, authority chain transactions, Legacy plan hashes) are immutable by design and persist after account deletion.
Audit logs: Retained per the security tier applicable to your account.
You may request a complete export of your personal data and entity memories at any time. Privatae will provide the export in a machine-readable format within thirty (30) days of the request.
You may delete your account and all associated data at any time. Deletion is processed within thirty (30) days. On-chain records cannot be deleted as they are immutable blockchain transactions.
You agree not to:
You may terminate your account at any time. Upon termination, your data will be deleted in accordance with Section 9.3. If you have a Legacy plan, termination of your account will also deactivate your Legacy plan and any dormant heir entities unless you explicitly transfer them prior to termination.
Privatae may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms, engage in prohibited conduct, or if required by law. Privatae will provide notice of termination except where prohibited by law or where immediate termination is necessary to protect the Platform or other users.
Upon termination, your right to access the Platform ceases immediately. Data deletion proceeds per Section 9.3. On-chain records persist. Any prepaid amounts are non-refundable except as required by applicable law.
THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
PRIVATAE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS. PRIVATAE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY ENTITY OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, RELIABLE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
ENTITIES ARE COMPUTATIONAL SYSTEMS, NOT SENTIENT BEINGS. PRIVATAE MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE NATURE, QUALITY, OR RELIABILITY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR ENTITY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL PRIVATAE, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER PRIVATAE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
PRIVATAE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO PRIVATAE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00).
Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in the State of Wyoming.
YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE DISPUTE BETWEEN PRIVATAE AND YOU INDIVIDUALLY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, (A) NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER PROCEEDING; (B) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS; AND (C) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC OR ANY OTHER PERSONS.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to conflict of law principles.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Privatae regarding the Platform.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
Privatae's failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.
You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without Privatae's prior written consent. Privatae may assign its rights and obligations without restriction.
Privatae may modify these Terms at any time by posting the updated Terms on the Platform. Material changes will be communicated to you at least thirty (30) days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date of modified Terms constitutes acceptance of those modifications.
Privatae shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, labor disputes, government actions, power failures, internet disruptions, or third-party service outages.
