Terms of Service

1. Agreement and operator

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and AFTER THE ROLL L.L.C. (“AfterTheRoll,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), based in Peoria, Arizona, United States. “Service” means the AfterTheRoll website, Discord application, hosted web application, recording, transcription, recap, campaign-lore, and related support services.

By creating or linking an account, installing or using the Discord application, starting or participating in a recording through the Service, or otherwise using the Service after receiving these Terms, you agree to them and to our Privacy Policy. If you use the Service for an organization or campaign group, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility and U.S. availability

You must be at least 18, legally able to enter a contract, and located in the United States to use the Service. You may not use the Service to record a person under 18. The Service is not offered where its use would violate law or impose requirements we have not agreed to meet.

3. Accounts and authorized use

You must provide accurate information, protect your login and linked Discord account, and promptly report suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity performed through your account and for configuring server, campaign, and access rules appropriately. You may not transfer an account, bypass access controls, or use another person’s identity or credentials.

A server owner or administrator controls whether the Discord application is installed and which channels it may access. Only an authorized, linked user with the required campaign permissions may control recording or protected campaign content.

4. Recording consent is your responsibility

Laws governing recording vary by location and circumstance. Before starting or resuming a recording, you must clearly inform every participant that AfterTheRoll will receive, store, transcribe, and summarize the audio; identify the purpose; obtain every consent required by law; and provide a reasonable way to decline without being recorded. You must stop immediately if anyone declines or withdraws consent.

The bot’s audible announcement is an additional safeguard, not legal advice and not a substitute for your obligations. You represent and warrant each time you start or resume a recording that you have authority over the selected channel and have obtained valid permission from every participant. You may not record secretly, record a minor, defeat a platform privacy control, or use the Service where all required permissions cannot be obtained.

5. The Service and generated material

The Service receives Discord voice audio on infrastructure operated by AfterTheRoll, creates speaker-attributed transcripts, generates recaps and proposed lore, and helps authorized users review and organize campaign memory. Processing does not occur on an end user’s device. Features may be experimental, incomplete, or changed before or after general availability.

Transcripts and generated material may be incomplete, inaccurate, offensive, or inconsistent. They are drafting aids, not authoritative facts. You must review output before publishing or relying on it. Do not use the Service or its output for legal, medical, financial, employment, credit, insurance, safety-critical, or other high-impact decisions.

6. Your content and permissions to operate the Service

As between you and AfterTheRoll, you retain the rights you have in audio, transcripts, notes, campaign material, and other content you submit or direct the Service to process (“User Content”). You are responsible for User Content and must have all rights, licenses, notices, and consents needed to provide and process it.

You grant AfterTheRoll a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, copy, transmit, convert, transcribe, analyze, generate from, display, back up, and otherwise process User Content only to provide, secure, support, and improve the requested Service for you and authorized users, comply with law, and enforce these Terms. This license ends when the content is deleted, subject to shared content, legal retention, and backup expiration described in the Privacy Policy.

We do not claim ownership of User Content and do not use session content to train a general-purpose or third-party machine-learning model.

7. Acceptable use

You may not use the Service to:

• violate recording, privacy, data-protection, intellectual-property, or other law;
• record anyone without valid notice and consent or record anyone under 18;
• harass, stalk, exploit, impersonate, defame, threaten, or facilitate abuse;
• process highly sensitive information for health care, financial services, employment, education admissions, insurance, biometric identification, or government decisions;
• upload malware, attack the Service, evade limits, scrape, probe, or gain unauthorized access;
• reverse engineer the Service except where law expressly permits it;
• resell, sublicense, or provide the Service as a bureau service without written permission;
• misrepresent generated material as verified fact or use it for an unlawful decision; or
• violate Discord’s terms, policies, or platform restrictions.

We may investigate suspected violations and remove content, restrict functionality, suspend access, or report conduct when reasonably necessary to protect people, the Service, or legal rights.

8. Privacy and deletion

Our Privacy Policy describes collection, use, disclosure, retention, security, and deletion. Organizers must provide participants with legally sufficient notice and cooperate with privacy and deletion requests. Shared session content may require redaction or deletion of an entire session. Account closure does not automatically delete shared campaign or session content.

9. Discord and other third parties

Discord and any identity provider are independent services governed by their own terms. AfterTheRoll is not endorsed by or affiliated with Discord, Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, or other game publishers. Product and game names belong to their respective owners. We are not responsible for a third party’s availability, acts, rules, or changes to its platform.

10. AfterTheRoll property and feedback

The Service, software, design, documentation, branding, and original site content, excluding User Content, belong to AfterTheRoll or its licensors. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use the Service for its intended purpose. No other rights are granted.

If you provide feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use it without restriction or compensation, without identifying you publicly unless you agree.

11. Fees

If paid plans are offered, the price, billing interval, usage limits, renewal terms, taxes, and cancellation terms shown at purchase become part of these Terms. Unless the purchase terms state otherwise, fees are non-refundable except where law requires. We will not charge a new recurring fee without presenting the applicable purchase terms.

12. Changes, suspension, and termination

We may change or discontinue features, impose reasonable limits, or suspend the Service for maintenance, security, legal, or operational reasons. We may suspend or terminate access for a material breach, risk to users or the Service, nonpayment, or legal requirement. You may stop using the Service and request account closure at any time. Sections that by nature should survive termination—including ownership, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, disputes, and accrued payment duties—will survive.

13. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE AND ALL OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” AFTERTHEROLL DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT RECORDING, TRANSCRIPTION, SPEAKER ATTRIBUTION, GENERATED OUTPUT, STORAGE, OR THIRD-PARTY CONNECTIONS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, SECURE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of this section may not apply to you. Rights that cannot legally be waived remain in effect.

14. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AFTERTHEROLL AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA; OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH DAMAGE IS POSSIBLE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THEIR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID AFTERTHEROLL FOR THE SERVICE DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

These limitations do not apply to liability that law does not permit us to limit.

15. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless AfterTheRoll and its members, managers, employees, contractors, and licensors from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from your User Content, your recording or privacy practices, your violation of these Terms or law, your misuse of the Service, or your infringement of another person’s rights. We may control the defense and settlement of a covered claim, and you will reasonably cooperate. You may not settle a claim that imposes an obligation or admission on us without our written consent.

16. Informal resolution and individual arbitration

Before filing a claim, you and AfterTheRoll agree to send a written notice describing the dispute and requested relief and to try in good faith to resolve it for 30 days. Notices to AfterTheRoll must be sent to the email address in Section 20.

Except for an eligible small-claims case or a claim seeking injunctive relief for misuse of intellectual property or unauthorized access, any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this provision. Arbitration may occur by video, telephone, written submissions, or in Maricopa County, Arizona, as the rules and arbitrator permit.

YOU AND AFTERTHEROLL WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING IT.

You may opt out of arbitration by emailing a notice with your name, account email, and a clear statement that you opt out within 30 days after first accepting these Terms. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, that claim must proceed in court and not arbitration. Nothing in this section prevents either party from reporting a matter to a government agency.

17. Governing law and courts

Arizona law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration. For a dispute not subject to arbitration, you and AfterTheRoll consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Maricopa County, Arizona, and waive objections to venue, subject to any non-waivable consumer right.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will change the effective date and provide additional notice where required. A material change applies prospectively. Continued use after a change becomes effective constitutes acceptance only to the extent permitted by law; if you do not agree, stop using the Service.

19. General terms

These Terms and incorporated purchase terms are the entire agreement about the Service. If a provision is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the greatest lawful extent and the rest remains effective. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them in connection with a reorganization, financing, merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We are not liable for delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control. Headings are for convenience only. Electronic communications and signatures satisfy legal writing requirements where permitted.

20. Contact and legal notices

A legal notice must identify the sender, relevant account, facts, and requested relief. Do not send passwords, tokens, or unnecessary sensitive information.
