Terms of Service

Effective 2026-07-12 · applies to the Fugal website and chat demo

The short version

This is a free, open-source research demo, provided as-is with no uptime or accuracy guarantees. AI output can be wrong — don't rely on it for anything important. Your chats are yours. Don't abuse the service. Full privacy details are in the Privacy Policy.

1. Agreement

By using the Fugal website (the "Service") you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Service. The Service is an open-source research project — source at github.com/jtdoherty/openfugu-v1 — not a commercial product, and it may change, break, or shut down at any time without notice.

2. The Service

The Service demonstrates cost-aware routing of queries to language models. Depending on the deployment stage, responses may be routing decisions only or answers generated by third-party AI models. AI-generated content can be inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading. It is not professional advice of any kind — medical, legal, financial, or otherwise — and you should not rely on it without independent verification.

3. Accounts

  • Signing in is optional; it enables chat sync across devices.
  • You're responsible for activity under your account and for keeping access to your sign-in provider (Google/GitHub/email) secure.
  • You can delete your account at any time from Settings; deletion is permanent.

4. Acceptable use

Don't use the Service to do anything illegal, and don't:

  • probe, bypass, or interfere with its security or access controls (including attempting to access other users' data);
  • overload it — automated bulk scraping, denial-of-service, or abusive request volumes;
  • use it to generate content intended to harm others.

We may suspend or terminate access that violates these rules.

5. Your content

You own the messages you write and the conversations you have. You give us only the permission needed to operate the Service — storing and processing your chats to show them back to you and sync them across your devices. Chats are used to improve the routing model only if you enable the opt-in toggle in Settings (off by default), as described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Open source

The Service's code is publicly available in the repository under its stated license. These terms cover your use of the hosted Service; the code license covers your use of the code.

7. Disclaimers & liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED — INCLUDING ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. THIS IS A FREE RESEARCH DEMO; USE IT ACCORDINGLY.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms; the effective date above will change when we do, and the history is preserved in the public repository. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated terms.
