Our Usage Policy (also referred to as our “Acceptable Use Policy” or “AUP”) applies to anyone who can submit inputs to Tathastu AI's products and/or services, including via any authorized resellers or passthrough access, all of whom we refer to as “users.” The Usage Policy is intended to help our users stay safe and promote the responsible use of our products and services.
Tathastu AI’s internal review processes will implement detection and monitoring to enforce our Usage Policy, so please review this policy carefully before using our products or services. If we learn that you have violated our Usage Policy, we may throttle, suspend, or terminate your access to our products and services. We may also refuse to generate, restrict, remove, or block outputs when inputs violate our Usage Policy.
Users are responsible for ensuring they have the necessary rights and permissions for any prompts, uploaded materials, names, likenesses, trademarks, or other content they provide to the Service.
Tathastu AI uses a combination of automated systems and internal human review to detect and block harmful content in user inputs and outputs, and prioritizes reports related to child safety. Tathastu AI reserves the right to suspend your account for any violation of this usage policy. If you believe your account has been wrongly suspended, you can appeal by emailing dhruv@tathastuai.com.
If you believe that our platform outputs are potentially inaccurate, biased or harmful, please notify us at dhruv@tathastuai.com, or report it directly in our product through the “report” thumbs down button or similar feedback features (where available).

This list is not exhaustive, and these policies will continue to evolve over time as our products changes and as we learn more about how people use the Tathastu AI and find it most helpful.
This means we may take action against an account, server, or content that violates the spirit of these Guidelines when we encounter a new threat or harm that is not explicitly covered in the current version.
We will always make our best effort to notify you when we update these Guidelines, but it is up to you to follow them and to use Tathastu AI responsibly.
Of course, context matters. We consider multiple factors when evaluating outputs, including educational, documentary, artistic or scientific applications.
Making sure that Tathastu AI adheres to these guidelines is tricky: There are limitless ways in which users can engage with Tathastu AI, and equally limitless ways that Tathastu AI can respond. This is because LLMs are probabilistic, which means that they are always producing new and different responses to user inputs. And Tathastu AI's outputs are informed by its training data, which means that Tathastu AI will sometimes reflect the limits of that data. These are well-known issues for large language models, and while we continue to work to mitigate these challenges, Tathastu AI may sometimes produce content that violates our guidelines, reflects limited viewpoints or includes overgeneralisations, especially in response to challenging prompts.
