Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you (“you,” “your,” or “DM” if you are the campaign owner) and Peter Neale, trading as Scry, an Australian sole trader (ABN 12 605 313 932) (“Scry,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of the Scry website, application, Discord bot, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By creating an account, inviting the Scry Discord bot to a server, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Who Can Use Scry

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to create a Scry account, hold a subscription, or act as a Dungeon Master/campaign owner on the Service. By creating an account you represent that you meet this requirement and that all registration information you provide is accurate.

Scry is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 through account registration. Section 10 of our Privacy Policy explains how this applies to session participants (players) who may be minors invited into a campaign by a DM, and what that means for the DM's own obligations.

You authenticate via Discord OAuth (through Clerk). You are responsible for the security of your Discord account and for all activity that occurs under your Scry account.

2. The Service

Scry records Dungeon Master and player voice sessions in Discord (with consent — see Section 7), transcribes them, and uses AI to build and maintain a written campaign wiki, including a spoiler-safe version for players. Core features include session transcription and recap, the wiki editor and knowledge graph, the Unseen Servant (read-only wiki Q&A), DM Assistant (AI-drafted wiki edits that require your approval before anything is saved), Prep Assistant, and PDF/sourcebook ingestion.

Scry's AI features only organize, surface, and structure content that you and your players actually created at the table. They are not used to invent new canon, characters, or plot on your behalf. Full detail on what each AI feature does, which models are used, and what data is sent to them is in our AI Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

We may add, change, or remove features at any time. We'll try to give notice of changes that materially reduce functionality you're actively paying for.

3. Plans, Billing, and Free Access

Current plans, pricing, feature limits, and free-tier terms are described on our Pricing page, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference and may be updated from time to time. We describe billing mechanics here rather than duplicating specific limits, so that a pricing change doesn't put this document out of sync with what you're actually being charged.

• Payment processing. All payments are handled by Stripe. We do not store your full payment card number.
• Subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price for your plan until you cancel. We'll give you reasonable advance notice by email before a price increase takes effect on your next renewal.
• Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You keep access through the period you already paid for. We do not provide prorated refunds for partial billing periods, except where required by law.
• Free access tiers (however structured on the Pricing page at the time) are provided at our discretion and may be modified, capped, or discontinued. Free access does not create any right to continued free access.
• Non-payment. If a payment fails, we may suspend paid features after a grace period described at checkout or in your account settings, while preserving your underlying data.

4. Your Content

“Your Content” means everything you or your players submit to the Service: session audio, transcripts, wiki entries and edits, chat messages to the Unseen Servant or DM Assistant, campaign metadata, images you upload to entities, and PDF or document files you upload.

4.1 You own it

You retain all ownership rights in Your Content. We don't claim ownership over your campaign, your world, your characters, or your prose.

4.2 The license you grant us

To operate the Service, you grant Scry a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, transmit, index, and process Your Content, and to create derivative works from it (such as AI-generated summaries, entity extractions, and embeddings), solely for the purpose of providing and improving the Service to you. This license ends when you delete the relevant content or close your account, subject to the retention terms in our Privacy Policy and standard backup cycles.

We do not use Your Content to train third-party foundation models, and we do not sell Your Content. See the AI Policy for specifics.

4.3 Uploaded PDFs and sourcebooks — your representation and warranty

Scry lets you upload PDF sourcebooks, homebrew documents, and other files so the Service can extract entities, vocabulary, and (where detected) art and stat blocks into your wiki. Before you can upload any file, you must affirmatively confirm that you own the content or otherwise hold the legal right to upload it, have it processed by our systems, and use the material it contains within your campaign wiki. This confirmation is a condition of the upload feature, not a formality — it's a representation and warranty you're making to us, and one we may need to point to if a rights holder ever challenges the upload.

Specifically, by uploading a file you represent and warrant that:

• you own the copyright in the file, or you have a license, permission, or legal right (including fair use/fair dealing you're prepared to stand behind) sufficient to upload it, have it processed for entity/vocabulary extraction, and use the resulting content in your campaign wiki;
• the file does not infringe any third party's copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy, or other rights;
• you are not uploading a file merely to work around a paywall, DRM, or licensing restriction that the rights holder placed on that content; and
• if the file is a commercial TTRPG sourcebook (a published module, core rulebook, or similar), you understand Scry does not verify your license to that specific title, and that responsibility for that verification rests entirely with you.

Uploaded files are processed under an ephemeral pipeline: we extract text, vocabulary, and (where applicable) art and stat block candidates, and the source file is deleted from storage after processing (backed by an automatic 24-hour deletion policy regardless of processing outcome). We do not redistribute, publicly display, or share your uploaded source files with anyone. The wiki entries, vocabulary terms, and embeddings derived from the file are retained as part of your campaign, subject to Section 4.2.

This does not create a license for Scry to use your uploaded sourcebook content beyond your own campaign. We process the file to help you build your wiki; we do not acquire rights in the underlying copyrighted work, and nothing here transfers any rights in third-party-owned content to Scry or to you.

If you make your campaign wiki public (Section 6) and it contains material derived from a sourcebook you didn't have the right to use, you are solely responsible for that publication and for any resulting claims — see Section 15 (Indemnification).

4.4 Voice, transcripts, and player content

Session audio and the transcripts and summaries derived from it are Your Content under this section, subject to the consent mechanism described in Section 7 and our Privacy Policy.

5. AI Features

Scry uses third-party AI models (see the AI Policy for the current list) to transcribe audio, extract entities, summarize sessions, and power the Unseen Servant, DM Assistant, and Prep Assistant. You acknowledge that:

• AI-generated summaries, extractions, and suggestions can be incomplete or inaccurate, and you're responsible for reviewing AI-generated content before relying on it, especially anything DM Assistant proposes — nothing DM Assistant drafts is written to your wiki without your explicit approval;
• when you interact with the Unseen Servant, DM Assistant, or Prep Assistant, you are interacting with an AI system, not a human; and
• Scry's positioning is “archivist, not author” — these features are designed to organize and surface what you and your table already created, not to originate new canon on your behalf, and we do not represent them as doing otherwise.

6. Public Sharing

If you choose to publish a campaign, entity, or wiki page publicly (including through the Discover feature), you grant Scry a license to display that content publicly as part of the Service, and you're representing that you have the right to publish everything contained in it — including any content derived from uploaded sourcebooks under Section 4.3. You can unpublish previously public content at any time, though cached or previously-viewed copies may persist briefly.

Commercial use of publicly published content, where offered as a plan feature, is governed by the plan terms on the Pricing page.

7. Discord Integration, Voice Recording, and Consent

The Service records voice audio in Discord voice channels that you invite the Scry bot into. Recording consent laws vary by jurisdiction — some require only one participant's consent, others require every participant's consent. Scry provides an in-app consent mechanism: when the bot joins a session, it posts a disclosure with an opt-out window before recording begins, and participants can withdraw consent at any time, including via the /scry delete-my-data command, which deletes their prior audio and transcript data.

You, as the person initiating recording (typically the DM), are responsible for complying with the recording consent laws of your own jurisdiction and the jurisdictions of your players. Scry's consent mechanism is a tool to help you meet that obligation — it does not substitute for your own judgment about who's in your session and what their local law requires. If you know a participant does not want to be recorded, do not record them.

8. Acceptable Use

You will not, and will not permit anyone using your account or invited into your campaign to:

• upload, transmit, or generate content that is illegal, that infringes another's intellectual property or privacy rights, or that violates Section 4.3;
• use the Service to harass, threaten, or endanger any person;
• attempt to circumvent feature gates, rate limits, or plan restrictions, or misrepresent your plan tier to the Service;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or scrape the Service, or use automated means to access it beyond normal use;
• upload malware or attempt to gain unauthorized access to Scry's systems or other users' data;
• use the Service to build a competing product using data or output scraped from Scry; or
• impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.

We may suspend or terminate access for violations of this section, with or without notice depending on severity, as described in Section 12.

9. Scry's Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, the Scry name and logo, the Unseen Servant character and brand illustrations, and all associated documentation, is owned by Scry and protected by intellectual property law. These Terms grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable license to use the Service for its intended purpose — nothing more. You may not use Scry's name, logo, or branding without our written permission, except as reasonably necessary to describe your use of the Service (e.g., a “Built with Scry” attribution).

10. Copyright Policy (DMCA)

We respect intellectual property rights and expect the same from our users. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a notice to our designated agent.

10.1 Designated Agent

10.2 Notice of Claimed Infringement

To be effective, a takedown notice must include, at minimum:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail (e.g., a URL or campaign/entity reference) for us to locate it;
4. Your contact information (address, phone number, email);
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.

On receipt of a valid notice, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material and will notify the user who posted it.

10.3 Counter-Notification

If you believe material you posted was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notice to the agent above containing:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the material removed and its location before removal;
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;
4. Your name, address, and phone number, and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal court in your district (or, if outside the U.S., an appropriate judicial district) and that you'll accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice.

We will forward a valid counter-notice to the original complainant. Unless they inform us they've filed a court action within 10 business days, we may restore the material.

10.4 Repeat Infringers

We will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users determined to be repeat infringers.

10.5 Misrepresentation

Anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages under applicable copyright law.

11. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on and integrates with third-party providers, including Discord, Stripe, Clerk, Vercel, Supabase, Railway, DeepSeek, Groq, OpenAI, PostHog, and Sentry. Your use of Discord in connection with Scry is also subject to Discord's own Terms of Service and Developer Policy. We aren't responsible for the availability, content, or practices of third-party services, and your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their own terms.

12. Termination

You may stop using the Service or cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, use the Service unlawfully, fail to pay applicable fees, or if we're required to by law. Where the violation isn't severe or ongoing, we'll generally attempt to notify you and give you an opportunity to correct it first.

On termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. Data retention and deletion after termination or cancellation are governed by our Privacy Policy and the AI Policy's “your right to leave” section, including your ability to export your wiki via Obsidian export before deletion.

13. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT AI-GENERATED CONTENT (INCLUDING TRANSCRIPTS, SUMMARIES, AND WIKI SUGGESTIONS) WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING AI-GENERATED CONTENT BEFORE RELYING ON IT.

Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy conferred on you by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified by agreement. To the extent the Service is not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic, or household use or consumption, our liability for failing to meet a non-excludable guarantee is limited, at our option, to re-supplying the Service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SCRY (PETER NEALE) AND ANY CONTRACTORS WORKING ON THE SERVICE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, OR PROFITS, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (B) USD $100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, liability for our gross negligence, willful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by our negligence, where applicable).

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Scry (Peter Neale) and any contractors working on the Service from any claim, liability, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) Your Content, including any claim that a PDF or sourcebook you uploaded infringed a third party's rights; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or third-party right; or (d) your use of the Service in a way not authorized by these Terms.

16. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Western Australia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be resolved in the courts of Western Australia, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Before filing a claim, we ask that you first contact us at peter@getscrying.com so we can try to resolve the issue informally. Nothing in this section overrides the Australian Consumer Law savings clause in Section 13, or any non-excludable right you have under the law of your own country of residence as a consumer.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If a change is material, we'll notify you by email or an in-app notice before it takes effect. Continued use of the Service after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

18. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision isn't a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and AI Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Scry regarding the Service.

If you are a data controller subject to the GDPR, UK GDPR, or an equivalent law with respect to your use of the Service, our Data Processing Addendum is incorporated into and forms part of these Terms. It doesn't apply to you otherwise, and you don't need to do anything to accept it beyond agreeing to these Terms. If your organization requires a separately countersigned copy for procurement purposes, contact us at peter@getscrying.com.
