PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY. BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, ACCESSING, OR USING THE RENAISSANCE APPLICATION OR ANY RELATED SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE.
SECTION 17 CONTAINS A MANDATORY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. THESE PROVISIONS AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO BRING A LAWSUIT IN COURT OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding legal agreement ("Agreement") between you ("you", "your", or "User") and ExtraordinAi, the unincorporated personal project that operates the Renaissance application and related services ("ExtraordinAi", "Company", "we", "us", "our"), governing your use of the Renaissance mobile application, our website at https://extraordinai.com, and all related services, features, and content (collectively, the "Service").
For the purposes of this Agreement, "ExtraordinAi" refers to the natural person who operates the Service under that name. All references to "Company", "we", "us", or "our" shall be construed accordingly.
By creating an account, downloading the app, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
You must be at least 13 years of age to create an account or use the Service. If you are between 13 and the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction (typically 18), you may use the Service only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.
You represent and warrant that: (a) you have the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement; (b) you are not located in, or a national or resident of, any country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated by the U.S. government as a "terrorist-supporting" country; and (c) you are not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information promptly. The Service is not directed to children under 13.
Renaissance is an AI-powered personal journaling and memory application that allows you to capture text, images, locations, and other content ("Entries"), and to retrieve and explore those Entries using artificial intelligence-powered search and conversational features ("AI Features").
The Service is provided "as is" and we may modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We do not guarantee continued availability of any specific feature.
To use most features, you must register for an account. You agree to:
We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above. You may create only one account per person unless we expressly authorize otherwise.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install, and use the Service on devices you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use.
You may not, and may not permit any third party to:
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
You retain all rights, title, and interest in and to any content you submit, upload, or create through the Service, including Entries, photos, text, audio, and any other materials ("Your Content"). We claim no ownership of Your Content.
You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up license to host, store, copy, transmit, display, process, modify (solely as necessary for technical operation), and otherwise use Your Content solely for the purpose of providing, maintaining, securing, improving, and supporting the Service for you and operating the AI Features described in Section 7. This license terminates when you delete the content or your account, subject to a reasonable retention period for technical backups and legal compliance.
We will not use Your Content to train any artificial intelligence or machine learning models, sell it, license it to advertisers, or make it publicly available, except as strictly necessary to provide the Service to you.
You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all necessary rights to Your Content; (b) Your Content does not infringe or violate any third party's intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights; (c) Your Content complies with these Terms and all applicable laws.
You are solely responsible for maintaining your own backups of Your Content. We provide a data export feature (see Section 11), and we recommend that you periodically export and store copies of Your Content outside the Service. While we take commercially reasonable measures to preserve Your Content, we do not guarantee that Your Content will be preserved without loss, corruption, or interruption.
The Service uses third-party services to enable conversational search, content understanding, and other AI Features. Currently, these providers include:
We may add, replace, or remove third-party providers at any time. We will update these Terms or our Privacy Policy to reflect material changes.
To enable AI Features, portions of Your Content (including Entry text and image-derived captions) are transmitted to the third-party AI providers identified above. These providers process the content solely to generate the requested AI output and, under their standard API terms, do not use this content to train their models.
AI Features generate output ("AI Output") based on probabilistic models. AI Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, outdated, fabricated, offensive, or misleading. AI Output may "hallucinate" by generating content that appears plausible but is factually wrong. You should not rely on AI Output as authoritative or accurate without independent verification.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we make no representations or warranties about the accuracy, reliability, completeness, timeliness, or fitness for any purpose of AI Output.
AI Output does not constitute and is not a substitute for professional advice of any kind, including but not limited to medical, mental health, legal, financial, tax, accounting, investment, or other professional advice. Do not use AI Output as a basis for making decisions in any of these areas without consulting a qualified professional. If you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, contact emergency services immediately.
As between you and us, you own AI Output generated in response to Your Content, to the extent that you have rights to the underlying inputs. However, we make no representation that AI Output is copyrightable, original, or non-infringing, and similar AI Output may be generated for other users. AI Output is provided to you "as is" with no warranties.
In addition to the prohibitions in Section 9, you may not use AI Features to:
Our Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information about you. By using the Service, you consent to our data practices as described in the Privacy Policy. Where applicable, additional rights may be available to you under laws such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation, the California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act, the UK Data Protection Act 2018, and the Australian Privacy Act 1988.
You agree not to use the Service to:
(a) Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights;
(b) Upload, transmit, or store content that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, pornographic (including child sexual abuse material), harassing, threatening, hateful, or otherwise objectionable;
(c) Infringe any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, right of publicity, or other right of any party;
(d) Transmit any viruses, worms, malicious code, or other harmful computer code;
(e) Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other users' accounts, or our systems;
(f) Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its servers;
(g) Engage in any form of automated data collection (scraping, harvesting, etc.);
(h) Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation;
(i) Solicit personal or sensitive information from other users;
(j) Use the Service for any commercial purpose without our express written consent;
(k) Use the Service in a manner that could be used to identify, profile, surveil, or harm any other individual without their consent;
(l) Take any action that imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure.
We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor, investigate, remove, or take action against any content or conduct that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms or harms the Service or its users.
The Service is free to download. We offer a free tier supported in part by advertising (see Section 10.5) and optional paid subscriptions ("Subscriptions") that unlock additional features, usage limits, or capabilities. Specific Subscription tiers, prices, and included features are displayed in the Service prior to purchase.
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each subscription period (e.g., monthly, annually) at the then-current price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
You can manage and cancel your Subscription at any time through your App Store account settings (Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions on iOS). Uninstalling the app does not cancel your Subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you will retain access to paid features until then.
We reserve the right to change Subscription prices, features, or terms. If we make material changes to a Subscription you are currently enrolled in, we will provide notice in advance and you will have the opportunity to cancel before the change takes effect. Continued use after the change constitutes acceptance.
The free tier may display advertisements and may offer the option to view advertisements in exchange for in-app credits or feature access ("Rewarded Ads"). You acknowledge that advertisements are provided by third-party advertising networks and are subject to those networks' terms. We do not endorse, and are not responsible for, any product or service advertised.
All payments are processed by the Apple App Store and are subject to Apple's refund policies. We do not directly issue refunds for App Store purchases. Refund requests must be submitted through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. Except where required by applicable law (e.g., the EU 14-day right of withdrawal, with limitations), all payments are non-refundable.
Prices may be subject to applicable taxes and fees, which may be added to your invoice. You are responsible for any taxes associated with your use of the Service, other than taxes based on our net income.
You may export Your Content from the Service at any time through the in-app data export feature. Exports are provided in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format (typically a ZIP archive containing HTML, JSON, and your original attachments).
You may delete your account at any time through the in-app account deletion feature in the Service's settings. Upon account deletion:
The Service, including all software, designs, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, service marks, and other content (excluding Your Content and AI Output) is owned by or licensed to us and is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. "Renaissance," "ExtraordinAi," our logos, and all related marks are trademarks of ExtraordinAi. You may not use them without our prior written consent.
We respect intellectual property rights and respond to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement consistent with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, please send a notice to [email protected] containing the information required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), including:
We will respond to valid notices by removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material as appropriate. We may terminate accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
If you send us suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully sublicensable license to use, modify, and commercialize that feedback without obligation or compensation to you.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT:
NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM US OR THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL EXTRAORDINAI, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, OR LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, "COMPANY PARTIES") BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT WILL THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY PARTIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100).
THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, OR ANY OTHER LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company Parties from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debt, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of and access to the Service; (b) your violation of any term of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property, privacy, or publicity right; (d) Your Content; (e) your use of AI Features or any AI Output; or (f) any other party's access and use of the Service through your account.
We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims.
You may terminate this Agreement at any time by deleting your account through the Service.
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Service at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, including if we believe you have violated these Terms or pose a risk to us, other users, or third parties.
Upon termination: (a) your right to use the Service ceases immediately; (b) we will delete Your Content in accordance with Section 11 and our Privacy Policy; (c) any provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 6.3, 7.3, 7.4, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, and 18) will survive; (d) you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees previously paid except as required by applicable law.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
Before filing any claim, you agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us at [email protected]. We will attempt to resolve the dispute by negotiating in good faith for 60 days after notice.
If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service ("Dispute") will be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except as set forth in Section 17.4 below.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in Hudson County, New Jersey, unless you and we agree otherwise or applicable law requires it to be held in the county of your residence. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding, and judgment may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of Section 17 will be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
The following are excluded from arbitration: (a) claims that may be brought in small claims court if they qualify; (b) claims for injunctive or other equitable relief to stop unauthorized use of, or infringement of intellectual property rights in, the Service; (c) any claim that cannot be subject to arbitration as a matter of law.
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to [email protected] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, the email associated with your account, and an unambiguous statement that you wish to opt out. Opting out will not affect any other provisions of these Terms.
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. If the arbitrator finds that the substance of your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, then payment of all fees will be governed by AAA's commercial rules.
These Terms and any Dispute arising out of or related to them or the Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
To the extent any litigation is brought in court (e.g., for the carve-outs in Section 17.4), you and we consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Hudson County, New Jersey.
The following terms apply if you obtain the Service through the Apple App Store ("App Store Terms"). In the event of conflict between the App Store Terms and the rest of these Terms, the App Store Terms control with respect to your use of the Service obtained from the App Store.
(a) Acknowledgment. These Terms are between you and ExtraordinAi only, and not with Apple Inc. or its subsidiaries ("Apple"). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the Service and its content.
(b) Scope of License. The license granted to you for the Service is limited to a non-transferable license to use the Service on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, and as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the Service may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
(c) Maintenance and Support. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the Service, as specified in these Terms or as required by applicable law. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the Service.
(d) Warranty. We, not Apple, are responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed in these Terms. In the event of any failure of the Service to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the Service to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Service.
(e) Product Claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the Service or your possession and/or use of the Service, including: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the Service fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
(f) Intellectual Property Rights. In the event of any third-party claim that the Service or your possession and use of the Service infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
(g) Legal Compliance. You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist-supporting" country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
(h) Third-Party Beneficiary. You acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act ("CPRA"), described in our Privacy Policy. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
Pursuant to California Civil Code § 1789.3, if you have a complaint about the Service, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N-112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or Australia, additional terms may apply, and certain provisions of these Terms (including warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability) may be modified to the extent required by applicable law. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer that cannot be waived under applicable law.
EU and UK residents have additional rights under the GDPR / UK GDPR. Australian residents have additional rights under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded. Where these Terms conflict with non-excludable consumer rights, those rights prevail.
The Service is not directed to or intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us personal information, please contact us at [email protected] so we can delete it.
We may modify these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by (a) posting the updated Terms in the Service with a new "Last Updated" date, and (b) for material changes affecting your rights, providing notice through the Service or via email at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any updated Terms constitutes your acceptance of those Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and delete your account.
We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, civil unrest, government action, epidemics, pandemics, labor disputes, internet outages, third-party service failures (including failures by Apple, our cloud providers, or our AI providers), or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
We may give you notices by email to the address associated with your account, by posting in the Service, or by other reasonable means. You consent to receive electronic communications from us, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
Notices to us must be sent to [email protected].
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by us.
You may not assign, transfer, or sublicense these Terms or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or by operation of law.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.
You and we are independent contractors. These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency relationship between us.
