Vibeark — Terms of Use

Effective date: 20 July 2026

Last updated: 20 July 2026

Website: https://vibeark.co.in

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("you", "your", "User") and Vibeark, a sole proprietorship operated from India operating the Vibeark platform ("Vibeark", "we", "us", "our"). They govern your access to and use of the Vibeark website, applications, and services (together, the "Service").

By creating an account, verifying your email, or using the Service, you accept these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

These Terms incorporate by reference our Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, Content Policy, Safety Policy, AI Chat Companion Policy, Platform Rules, Prohibited Activities, and all other policies in this package (together, the "Agreement").

✅ 10 Key Points at a Glance

This summary is for convenience only and does not replace the full Terms below.

1. You must be 18 or older. Vibeark is strictly for adults. No exceptions.
2. One account per person. Fake, duplicate, or shared accounts are not allowed.
3. Chats are anonymous — we cannot verify anyone. We do not guarantee any user's age, gender, location, profession, or honesty.
4. Some chats are with an AI companion, not a human. The AI is clearly labelled and can be wrong. It is not medical, legal, financial, or emergency advice.
5. You are responsible for what you send and share. You own your content but grant us a limited licence to run the Service.
6. Meeting anyone offline is entirely at your own risk. Never share sensitive personal or financial information with strangers.
7. Harassment, hate, illegal content, CSAM, scams, and the other Prohibited Activities are banned and can lead to an immediate, permanent ban.
8. We can suspend or ban accounts — sometimes without prior notice — to protect users and comply with law.
9. The Service is provided "as is." Our liability is limited as described in Section 15.
10. These Terms are governed by the laws of India, and disputes are subject to the jurisdiction described in Section 20.

1. Eligibility

1.1 Age. You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. Vibeark is an adult-only service and is not directed to minors.

1.2 By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet the age requirement and that all registration information you provide is true and accurate.

1.3 If we learn that a user is under 18, we will suspend or terminate the account. If you believe a minor is using the Service, report it to vibearkin@gmail.com.

1.4 Right to refuse service. We may decline to provide, or may withdraw, the Service to any person, at any time, at our discretion, to the extent permitted by law.

2. Your Account

2.1 Registration. You create an account using email one-time password (OTP) authentication provided through Supabase Auth. We do not ask you to create or store a password. You are responsible for keeping access to your email account secure.

2.2 One account per person. Each person may hold one account. Creating multiple accounts, or operating accounts on behalf of others without authorisation, is prohibited.

2.3 Username uniqueness. Each username is unique to one account. You may not choose a username that:

impersonates another person, brand, or Vibeark itself;
infringes a trademark or other right;
is offensive, misleading, or violates the Community Guidelines.

2.4 Username reclaim. We may reclaim, reassign, or require you to change a username that: (a) is inactive; (b) impersonates or infringes rights; (c) violates our policies; (d) is used in bad faith (including "squatting"); or (e) is requested by a rightful trademark owner. We are not obligated to preserve any username.

2.5 Fake accounts and impersonation. Fake, automated, bulk-registered, or impersonating accounts are prohibited and may be removed without notice. See Prohibited Activities.

2.6 Identity verification disclaimer. Vibeark does not verify the real-world identity of users. Profile details (display name, avatar, bio, gender, city, date of birth) are self-declared and unverified. We make no representation that any user is who they claim to be. See Section 5 and the Safety Policy.

2.7 Account security. You are solely responsible for all activity that occurs through your account and email login. Notify us at vibearkin@gmail.com immediately if you suspect unauthorised access. We are not liable for losses arising from your failure to secure your email or account.

3. Nature of the Service

3.1 Vibeark is an anonymous stranger-chat platform. You may be connected to:

another real user of the Service; or
an AI-powered chat companion ("AI Companion"), which may be offered when a real user is not available or in other situations we choose.

3.2 The AI Companion is clearly identified within the Service. It is software, not a human. See the AI Chat Companion Policy.

3.3 You choose what you share. Because chats are anonymous, you decide what information to reveal. We strongly recommend you never share sensitive personal, financial, or identifying information. See the Safety Policy.

3.4 The Service, its features, and availability may change, be suspended, or be discontinued at any time (see Section 17).

4. Profiles and Self-Declared Information

4.1 You may add a display name, avatar emoji, bio, gender, optional city, and optional date of birth. All such information is optional (except as required for registration) and is provided by you.

4.2 You must not include in your profile any content that violates the Content Policy, including personal contact details of others, sexual content involving minors, hate speech, or another person's private information.

4.3 You are responsible for the accuracy of your profile. Providing false information (for example, a false date of birth to bypass the age requirement) is a material breach of these Terms.

5. No Guarantees About Other Users

5.1 Because Vibeark is anonymous and identities are not verified, we cannot and do not guarantee:

the age of any user;
the gender of any user;
the location or city of any user;
the profession or background of any user;
that any user is truthful, genuine, or acting in good faith.

5.2 Interactions are at your own risk. You are responsible for your interactions with other users. We are not a party to, and are not responsible for, communications or dealings between users.

5.3 Offline meetings. If you choose to meet another user in person, you do so entirely at your own risk. Vibeark does not conduct background checks and takes no responsibility for offline conduct. Please read the Safety Policy before meeting anyone.

6. User Content and Licence

6.1 You own your content. As between you and Vibeark, you retain ownership of the messages, text, and other content you create and send ("User Content").

6.2 Licence to operate the Service. You grant Vibeark a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licensable licence to host, store, transmit, display, reproduce, and process your User Content solely to the extent necessary to operate, provide, secure, and improve the Service, to enforce our policies, and to comply with law. This licence ends when your User Content is deleted from our systems, except for copies retained for backup, legal, safety, or evidentiary purposes as described in the Privacy Policy and Section 14.

6.3 You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of sending it. You represent that you have all rights necessary to send it and that it does not violate this Agreement or any law.

6.4 We are not responsible for User Content. Vibeark does not endorse, and is not responsible or liable for, any User Content. As an intermediary, we do not pre-screen all content. See Section 13 (Intermediary status).

6.5 Right to remove. We may remove, restrict, or refuse any User Content, and limit or disable any feature, at our discretion, without prior notice, where we reasonably believe it violates the Agreement or applicable law, or is necessary to protect users or the Service.

6.6 Preservation of evidence. We may retain and preserve User Content, account records, and related data where required by law, court order, or lawful request, or where we reasonably believe preservation is necessary to investigate abuse, ensure safety, or protect our legal rights. See the Law Enforcement Request Policy.

7. Acceptable Use

7.1 You agree to follow the Community Guidelines, Content Policy, Platform Rules, and Prohibited Activities, which are part of this Agreement.

7.2 Without limiting those documents, you agree not to use the Service to: harass, bully, threaten, or abuse others; post hate speech, violent, or illegal content; share child sexual abuse material or exploit any person; promote self-harm, terrorism, drugs, weapons, or trafficking; distribute non-consensual intimate imagery; commit scams, fraud, phishing, or spam; distribute malware; impersonate others; dox or violate others' privacy; scrape, reverse-engineer, or overload the Service; or sell, transfer, or share accounts.

7.3 A violation may result in content removal, warnings, feature limits, suspension, or a permanent ban, and may be reported to authorities. See the User Reporting & Moderation Policy.

8. AI Chat Companion

8.1 The AI Companion is governed by the AI Chat Companion Policy, which is part of this Agreement.

8.2 In summary: the AI is software and is clearly labelled; it may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate output; it is for casual conversation only; and it is not a substitute for professional medical, legal, financial, psychological, or emergency advice. Do not rely on it for important decisions. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services or a qualified professional.

9. Reporting, Blocking, and Moderation

9.1 You can block other users and report abusive behaviour or content within the Service.

9.2 We may review reports and take action under the User Reporting & Moderation Policy. We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with law enforcement as described in the Law Enforcement Request Policy.

9.3 Moderation decisions are made at our discretion. An appeals process, where offered, is described in the User Reporting & Moderation Policy.

10. Suspension, Bans, and Termination

10.1 Immediate suspension without notice. We may suspend or restrict your account immediately and without prior notice where we reasonably believe it is necessary to: protect users or the public; prevent harm, fraud, or abuse; comply with law or a lawful request; or protect the integrity or security of the Service.

10.2 Permanent bans. Serious or repeated violations — including any involvement with child sexual abuse material, credible threats of violence, human trafficking, or other serious unlawful conduct — may result in a permanent ban and referral to authorities.

10.3 Termination by you. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. See the Account Deletion Policy.

10.4 Inactive accounts. We may deactivate, restrict, or delete accounts that have been inactive for 24 months, and may release the associated username, after reasonable attempts to notify you where practicable.

10.5 Effect of termination. On termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections that by their nature should survive (including Sections 6, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 19, and 20) will survive.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

15.1 THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, whether express, implied, or statutory, to the maximum extent permitted by law. We disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage.

15.3 We make no guarantee regarding other users' identity, age, gender, location, profession, conduct, or truthfulness (Section 5), and no guarantee regarding the outcome of any interaction.

15.4 Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (including under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019). Where the law implies non-excludable guarantees, our liability is limited, to the extent permitted, to re-supplying the Service.

16. Limitation of Liability

16.1 To the maximum extent permitted by law, Vibeark and its owners, employees, officers, contractors, and partners ("Vibeark Parties") will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or reputation, arising out of or relating to the Service or this Agreement, even if advised of the possibility.

16.2 The Vibeark Parties are not liable for: the conduct of any user, whether online or offline; any offline meeting; User Content; AI Companion output; unauthorised access to your account resulting from your email being compromised; or events beyond our reasonable control (Section 18).

16.3 Aggregate cap. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of the Vibeark Parties for all claims relating to the Service or this Agreement will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid to Vibeark, if any, in the 6 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) INR 1,000.

16.4 These limits apply to all theories of liability and survive termination.

17. Changes, Availability, and Beta Features

17.1 Modifications to the Service. We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice.

17.2 Service interruptions. The Service may be unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues, or events beyond our control. We are not liable for interruptions.

17.3 Beta features. We may offer experimental or "beta" features that are provided "as is," may be unstable, and may be changed or withdrawn at any time. Do not rely on beta features.

17.4 Changes to these Terms. We may update this Agreement. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you (for example, in-app notice or via the Service). Changes take effect when posted, or on the date stated. Your continued use after changes means you accept them. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete your account.

18. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, fire, flood, epidemic or pandemic, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, changes in law, labour disputes, power or internet failures, cyber-attacks, or failures of third-party providers (including hosting, authentication, and email providers).

19. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Vibeark Parties from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your User Content; (c) your breach of this Agreement or any law; or (d) your interactions with any other user, including any offline meeting.

20.2 Grievance first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to first contact our Grievance Officer (Section 13) and attempt to resolve the matter in good faith.

20.3 Jurisdiction / dispute resolution.

Subject to Section 20.2, the courts at New Delhi, India will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Service, and you consent to that jurisdiction. This does not prevent us from seeking urgent or interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, and does not limit any remedy a consumer may pursue under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.

(Note for Vibeark: if you later prefer arbitration instead of courts, replace this clause with an arbitration clause under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 — discuss with your advocate.)

20.4 Consumer rights preserved. Nothing in this Section limits any non-waivable right you have as a consumer under Indian law.

21. General Terms

21.1 Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

21.2 Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.

21.3 Entire agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and Vibeark regarding the Service and supersedes prior agreements on the subject.

21.4 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement. We may assign it to an affiliate or successor (for example, in a merger or sale) without restriction.
