Who we are
SoulTalk is an AI powered journaling and self-reflection application that uses artificial intelligence to generate written insights and reflections from what You write. SoulTalk supports personal self-reflection and wellbeing. It is not a therapy, medical, mental-health, or crisis service.

4. Your entries and the insights we generate

The content the Services generate from Your Entries, including insights, reflections, tags, affirmations, and summaries such as SoulSights, SoulSignals, and SoulShifts, are "Insights." Together, Entries and Insights are "Materials." 4.2 You own your Entries. As between You and SoulTalk, You retain all rights in Your Entries. We do not claim ownership of them. To the extent We hold any rights in the Insights generated for You, We assign them to You. 4.3 License to operate the Services. You grant SoulTalk a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, process, and transmit Your Entries solely as necessary to operate the Services and generate Your Insights, including by sending Your Entries to the AI Providers described in Section 5. This license exists only to provide the Services to You and ends when You delete the relevant content or Your account, as described in the Privacy Policy. 4.4 We do not train on your Materials. We do not use Your Entries or Insights to train artificial-intelligence models, and We do not sell them. 4.5 Reliance on Insights. Artificial intelligence is a developing technology. By using the Services, You acknowledge and agree that: 4.5.1 Insights are generated automatically and may be inaccurate or incomplete, even when they appear specific or confident; 4.5.2 Insights may not reflect correct, current, or complete information; and 4.5.3 You should not rely on any Insight without using Your own judgment, research, and, where appropriate, consulting a qualified professional.

5.1 To generate Your Insights, the Services send Your Entries to third-party AI providers (the "AI Providers"), that process them on Our behalf. These are currently Anthropic (the Claude API) and Voyage AI, a MongoDB company. 5.2 The AI Providers do not use Your Entries to train their models.

Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against You as they relate to Your use of the App.
