Terms of Service
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Intel CFO LLC, d/b/a Bare AI Labs (“Bare,” “we,” “us”). They govern your use of the Bare AI assistant at https://www.gobare.ai and any related services (the “Service”).
By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use the Service.
1. What Bare is
Bare is a consumer AI chat assistant. You type (or speak) a message; our systems generate a response using AI models. Your conversation history is stored on your device, in your browser — not on our servers. Section 5 explains what that means for you. Our Privacy Policy explains the full data picture.
2. Beta status
The Service is currently in private beta. That means:
- Features may change, break, or be removed without notice.
- We may suspend or reset the Service, usage limits, or beta features at any time.
- The Service may be unavailable for periods without warning.
- Access is gated by a waitlist and access codes until public launch.
- A temporary, opt-in beta feedback system exists (see Section 11). It will be removed at launch.
We ship fast and fix fast. During beta, expect rough edges.
3. Who can use Bare
You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. The Service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with a parent’s or guardian’s permission.
By using the Service, you confirm you meet these requirements. We deliberately collect very little about you, so this is a stated rule you agree to — not something we verify with ID checks.
4. Anonymous use, accounts, and the free tier
- No account is required. You can use Bare anonymously. We identify your browser session with a single signed cookie containing one opaque identifier — nothing more.
- Anonymous use carries a daily turn cap enforced on our servers. Signing in raises the free limit and unlocks additional features with their own daily limits. All current limits are shown in the product. We may change limits, and we will show you honest meters when we do.
- Optional sign-in (currently Google sign-in or an email link) exists to raise limits, enable optional features and, in the future, paid plans. Signing in adds exactly one thing to what we store: your account identifier (such as the email associated with your sign-in).
- You are responsible for activity that occurs under your session or account.
5. Your data: you hold it, we don’t
This section describes how the Service actually works — it is architecture, not marketing.
- Your conversations are stored in your browser’s local storage, on your device. Our servers keep only metadata: thread titles (short, derived, capped at 120 characters), timestamps, message counts, and usage counters.
- When you send a message, we process it transiently to generate a response — it travels over an encrypted connection to our servers and to the AI infrastructure we run on, is processed in memory, and is not stored or logged by us.
- The consequence you must accept: if you lose your device, clear your browser storage, use a private/incognito window, or your browser evicts the data, your conversation history is gone and we cannot recover it. We never had it. Export tools are provided in the product; using them is your responsibility.
- History does not sync across devices. That is a design choice.
- Burn Receipt: when you delete a thread, the product gives you a cryptographically signed receipt attesting to the deletion. You can verify it against our published verification key.
6. Acceptable use
You may not:
- use the Service to create, request, or distribute content that is illegal where you are, or to plan or facilitate harm to any person;
- probe, scan, overload, disrupt, or attack the Service, or attempt to bypass rate limits, turn caps, or security controls (including automated session cycling);
- abuse the waitlist, referral, or access-code systems — including submitting addresses you don’t control, generating referrals through automated or fake signups, or sending unsolicited bulk email through any feature we provide;
- access the Service with bots, scrapers, or other automated means, or resell or redistribute the Service (there is no public API offering today);
- reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code, models, or prompts underlying the Service, except where the law gives you that right regardless of this term;
- misrepresent AI-generated output as human-authored where the law requires disclosure;
- infringe anyone’s intellectual property, privacy, or other rights.
We enforce this section primarily with technical controls (rate limits, turn caps, firewall rules). We may block sessions, IP addresses, or accounts that violate it.
7. AI output — read this before you rely on anything
- Output is generated by machine-learning models. It may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or otherwise wrong, and it may occasionally be inappropriate for your purpose.
- Output is not professional advice. It is not legal, medical, financial, tax, or any other kind of professional advice, and no professional-client relationship is created by using the Service.
- You are responsible for verifying output before relying on it, acting on it, or publishing it.
8. Ownership of your content and output
As between you and us: you own the prompts and content you submit, and we claim no ownership of the model output generated for you. Because we don’t store your conversations, we could not build products on them even if we wanted to — and we don’t want to.
9. Optional Google connection
If you choose to connect your Google account (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Contacts), you authorize Bare to access those services on your behalf, within the OAuth scopes you approve, solely to fulfill the requests you make (for example, “summarize my unread email”).
- Your Google tokens are stored in your browser, not on our servers, and ride each request transiently.
- Content retrieved from your Google account is processed transiently to answer your request and is not retained by us.
- You can disconnect at any time in the product or by revoking access in your Google account settings.
- Your use of Google services remains governed by Google’s own terms.
10. Usage limits and fair use
Daily turn caps and feature-level limits are enforced server-side and displayed in the product. Hitting a cap pauses the relevant feature until it resets. Circumventing limits is a violation of Section 6.
11. Beta feedback (temporary)
During the beta, you can voluntarily flag a response or send feedback. If you choose to do this, and only then, the specific conversation excerpt you flag, your comment, and any screenshot you attach are sent to us and stored for 30 days, then deleted automatically. You see a preview of exactly what will be sent before you send it. This is the one exception to our no-content-storage design, it exists only with your explicit action, it is used solely to fix beta issues, and the whole system will be removed at launch. Details are in the Privacy Policy, Section 5.
12. Paid tier
A paid subscription tier is planned but is not yet available. When it launches, separate billing terms (including pricing, renewal, and cancellation) will be presented before you pay anything. Payments will be processed by a PCI-compliant third-party payment processor; we will not store your card details.
13. Termination
- By you: stop using the Service at any time. If you have an account, you can delete it in one click; deletion removes your account record, thread metadata, and usage counters from our systems and shows you a signed Burn Receipt. Your local conversation data is wiped from your browser as part of the same flow.
- By us: we may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Service. Because your transcripts live on your device, termination on our side does not delete your local conversation history.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED AVAILABILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
15. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BARE AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA (INCLUDING CONVERSATION HISTORY STORED ON YOUR DEVICE), OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE SERVICE IS CAPPED AT THE GREATER OF (a) USD $100 OR (b) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED BY LAW.
16. Indemnification
You will indemnify and hold Bare harmless from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Service, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
17. Dispute resolution
Any dispute arising out of these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its consumer rules, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court and either party may seek injunctive relief for intellectual-property misuse. You and Bare each waive the right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing support@gobare.ai with the subject “Arbitration opt-out.”
18. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Illinois, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.
19. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted at https://www.gobare.ai with a dated changelog, and (for signed-in users) we may also notify you in the product. Continued use after the effective date of a change means you accept it. If you don’t accept a change, stop using the Service.
20. Copyright complaints (DMCA)
If you believe content available through the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice compliant with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to our designated agent:
DMCA Agent, Intel CFO LLC, d/b/a Bare AI Labs
Email: support@gobare.ai (subject line “DMCA Notice”)
We will respond to valid notices, which may include removing material and terminating repeat infringers where applicable. Note that because conversations are stored on users’ devices, our ability to remove user-side content is inherently limited to what our servers host.
21. General
- Entire agreement: these Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
- Severability: if any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.
- No waiver: our not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it.
- Assignment: you may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
- Export/sanctions: you may not use the Service in violation of US export controls or sanctions.
