Terms of Service

The service

Qamishlo is an invite-only audio learning app that generates personalized micro-courses and supports mid-lesson questions. The beta may be incomplete, unreliable, or unavailable without notice.

Eligibility and invites

Private beta / as-is

The service is provided “as is” and “as available” for testing. We make no warranties—express or implied—about accuracy, uptime, fitness for a particular purpose, or that AI-generated lessons or answers are correct, complete, or safe for any use. Do not rely on Qamishlo as professional, medical, legal, or safety advice.

AI-generated content

Courses, narration, and Q&A answers are generated or assisted by AI (including Microsoft Azure OpenAI and, when configured, ElevenLabs). Content can be wrong, biased, or incomplete. You are responsible for how you use what you hear or read.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Permissions and device features

The Android app may ask for microphone (spoken questions), activity recognition and Bluetooth (optional commute reminders on-device), and notifications (course-ready / nudge alerts). Declining permissions limits features but does not by itself terminate these terms. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Your content

You retain rights to text you submit (for example custom subjects or questions). You grant us a license to process that content to operate the beta—including sending it to AI providers—and to store generated courses and Q&A as described in the Privacy Policy.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gidrono / Qamishlo is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from your use of the private beta. Our total liability for any claim relating to the beta is limited to zero dollars (USD $0) or the minimum amount required by mandatory law, whichever is higher.

Termination

You may stop using the beta at any time. We may end the beta or your access at any time. Provisions that by nature should survive (including limitation of liability and acceptable use) survive termination.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material updates will bump the version shown in the app’s accept screen. Continued use after you accept a new version means you agree to the updated terms.
