Dirac — Terms of Service

What Dirac Is

Dirac is a personal assistant application for Discord. It is operated by David Monaghan on his own hardware. It is not a company, a product, or a hosted service that you can sign up for.

Dirac joins a small number of private servers by invitation. There is no public invite link, no account to create, and no fee. If Dirac is in a server you are in, someone with authority over that server put it there.

Acceptance

If you send a message that Dirac can read, or speak in a voice channel that Dirac has joined, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not interact with the application. You can also ask the server owner to remove it.

These terms can change. The date above says when they last did.

Use of Service

Use Dirac lawfully. The operator may stop responding to any account, at any time, for any reason, and does not have to explain why.

Prohibited Activities

Do not:

• Use the application for an illegal purpose
• Try to obtain access, data, or actions that the operator has not granted you
• Try to make the application act against its operator, or misrepresent who you are
• Send malware, or content designed to damage a system that reads it
• Harass another person through the application
• Automate traffic to the application without permission

User Accounts

Dirac has no accounts of its own. Your identity is your Discord account, and the permissions you have are the ones the operator has granted to that account. Permissions are not transferable, and a claim made inside a message does not grant any.

Availability

Dirac runs on one machine. It goes offline for updates, reboots, power cuts, and network faults. There is no uptime commitment, no support channel, and no guarantee that a message gets an answer.

Intellectual Property

You keep the rights to what you write. The application, its name, and its configuration belong to the operator. Answers produced by the application are generated text; treat them as information, not as professional advice.

Limitation of Liability

The application is provided as is. The operator is not liable for loss or damage that follows from its use, from its answers, or from its absence.

Termination

The operator can remove the application from a server, or stop responding to an account, without notice. A server owner can remove the application at any time.
