Terms of Service

Last updated: August 9, 2026

Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using StonedGPT (the "Service"), operated by Hypertheory LLC ("we", "our", or "us"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Service.

Description of Service

StonedGPT is a conversational AI service for creative and entertainment purposes. Responses are generated by artificial intelligence, not a human. The Service is built on third-party AI models and may search the web to inform its responses.

Eligibility and Account Registration

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. To access certain features you must register for an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep it updated. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity under your account.

Plans, Rate Limits, and Subscriptions

We offer free and paid plans with different usage limits, which reset every 24 hours. Paid subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring monthly basis through Stripe and renew automatically each month until canceled. You may cancel at any time through the billing portal in your account settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and no refunds are issued for partial billing periods. We may change pricing with at least 30 days notice; price changes apply to subsequent billing periods. We reserve the right to modify, terminate, or otherwise amend our offered plans and features.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair it. Specifically, you agree not to:

  • Use automated methods or scripts to access, scrape, or collect information from the Service
  • Engage in spamming, harassment, or other abusive behavior
  • Share your account credentials or subscription access with others
  • Attempt to bypass any access restrictions, rate limits, or security measures
  • Upload or transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code
  • Generate content that is illegal, harmful, harassing, defamatory, or violates others' rights
  • Use the Service to create misleading, fraudulent, or deceptive content
  • Attempt to reverse engineer or extract proprietary information from the Service

User Content and AI-Generated Content

You may submit prompts, images, and other content to generate AI responses. You retain ownership of the content you submit and grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to store and process it solely to provide the Service. You own the AI-generated content created for your account, and you may use it for personal and commercial purposes. You agree to submit only content that you own or have permission to use, and not to submit content that is illegal, harmful, or violates others' rights.

If you share a chat, anyone with the link can view it without signing in. You are responsible for what you choose to share.

AI Output Disclaimer

AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, inappropriate, or unexpected, and we do not guarantee that any output will be suitable for your purposes. You are responsible for reviewing output before relying on it or publishing it. Nothing in the Service is professional advice of any kind, including medical, legal, or financial advice, and including any content related to cannabis. Cannabis laws vary by jurisdiction, and you are solely responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you.

Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, features, branding, and underlying technology, is owned by Hypertheory LLC and protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, republish, or transmit any material from the Service without prior written consent, except as the Service is intended to be used.

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT AI-GENERATED CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HYPERTHEORY LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, INCLUDING DAMAGES ARISING FROM AI-GENERATED CONTENT. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR $100, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Hypertheory LLC, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, your content, your violation of these terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account and access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including breach of these terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and the arbitration agreement) remain in effect.

Changes to Terms

We may modify these terms at any time. We will notify users of material changes by posting the updated terms on this page and revising the "Last updated" date at the top. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the new terms.

Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

Informal resolution first: Before initiating arbitration, you agree to contact us with a description of the dispute and to attempt in good faith to resolve it informally for 30 days.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in English, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either party may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this arbitration agreement.

YOU AND HYPERTHEORY LLC EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve that party's individual claim.

Coordinated filings: If 25 or more arbitration demands raising similar claims are filed against us with the assistance of the same or coordinated counsel, the parties agree the demands shall proceed in staged batches: 10 demands selected by each side proceed first as bellwethers, all other demands are held (with no filing or administrative fees due) until the bellwethers conclude, and the parties shall then mediate the remaining demands in good faith before any of them proceed.

Opt-out: You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by submitting a request through our contact form with your account email within 30 days of first accepting these terms. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these terms.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes not subject to arbitration shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in these courts.

Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Hypertheory LLC regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
