Terms of Use

Last updated · August 3, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to the ARIHA website at ariha.life and the ARIHA web application at app.ariha.life (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

Important notice

ARIHA is self-reflection software. It is not a medical device, and it does not provide medical, psychological, psychiatric, therapeutic, legal, or financial advice. It does not diagnose or treat any condition, does not predict the future, and is not a substitute for care from a licensed professional. If you are in crisis or may be in danger, contact your local emergency number or a crisis line immediately.

1. What ARIHA is

ARIHA is automated software for personal self-reflection. It offers prompts, questions, and written or spoken reflections generated by artificial intelligence. There is no human counsellor, coach, clinician, or advisor reviewing or responding to your input.

The Service is provided for general personal, informational, and reflective purposes only. Any decision you make after using ARIHA is your own.

2. AI-generated content disclaimer

  • ·Content in the Service is generated by AI models and may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or inappropriate for your situation. It is not verified by a professional.
  • ·AI output is probabilistic. The same input can produce different results, and nothing generated should be treated as a fact, a prediction, a diagnosis, or professional guidance.
  • ·ARIHA does not make claims about future events, outcomes, or supernatural insight. Its reflections are prompts for your own thinking — not statements about what will happen.
  • ·You are responsible for evaluating AI output before relying on it, and for verifying anything important with a qualified source.
  • ·Do not enter sensitive personal information — such as medical records, government identifiers, or financial account details — into the Service.

3. Medical and mental-health safety

ARIHA is not a healthcare service and does not create a therapist-client, physician-patient, or any other professional relationship.

  • ·Never disregard, avoid, or delay seeking professional advice because of something you read or heard in the Service.
  • ·Do not use the Service to diagnose or treat any physical or mental health condition, or to make decisions about medication or treatment.
  • ·The Service is not intended for emergencies and does not monitor your input for signs of risk. It cannot summon help.
  • ·If you are experiencing thoughts of self-harm or suicide, or a mental-health or medical emergency, stop using the Service and contact emergency services or a crisis line right away. In the United States, call or text 988. In the EU and many other countries, call 112.
  • ·Reflection can surface difficult feelings. If that happens, pause and reach out to a licensed professional or someone you trust.

4. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old (or the age of digital consent where you live, if higher) to use the Service. By using ARIHA you confirm that you meet this requirement and that you have the legal capacity to accept these Terms.

5. Your account and responsibilities

Some features require an account in the ARIHA app. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for activity that occurs under your account. Please provide accurate information and tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorised use.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • ·Use the Service for any unlawful, harmful, deceptive, or abusive purpose.
  • ·Present ARIHA output as professional advice, a diagnosis, or a prediction to anyone else.
  • ·Attempt to reverse engineer, scrape, overload, or interfere with the Service or its security.
  • ·Upload content that infringes the rights of others or that is unlawful, hateful, or harassing.
  • ·Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute the Service or its output.

7. Your content

You keep ownership of what you write in the Service. You grant us a limited licence to process and store that content solely to operate and improve the Service for you, as described in our Privacy Policy.

8. Availability and changes

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, and we may update these Terms. When we make material changes we will update the date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any output will be accurate or suitable for you.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ARIHA and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, wellbeing, or opportunity, arising from your use of or reliance on the Service or any AI-generated content. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid for the Service in the twelve months before the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot lawfully be limited.

11. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or if we reasonably believe your use puts the Service or others at risk.

12. Subscription, billing and cancellation

  • ·Free start. You may begin a conversation with ARIHA without creating an account and without providing any payment method. The free start includes up to three (3) messages from ARIHA. No charge is made during the free start, and it does not convert into a paid subscription automatically.
  • ·Account and payment to continue. After ARIHA's third message, the app displays a window asking you to create an account and subscribe. A fourth message from ARIHA, and any further use of the conversation, is available only after you create an account and your payment is confirmed. If you choose not to subscribe, the conversation ends there and you owe nothing.
  • ·Continuity. Once your payment is confirmed, the conversation continues from the same point, with the same conversation history, linked to your new account. Conversation content from the free start is kept only so it can be continued as described here, in line with our Privacy Policy.
  • ·Price. The subscription costs US $8 per month, charged at the time you subscribe and then on the same day each month. The price, the billing frequency, and the renewal terms are shown in the app before you confirm payment. Prices are shown in U.S. dollars and exclude any taxes that may apply where you live.
  • ·Your subscription renews automatically each month and your payment method is charged the then-current price until you cancel. You authorise these recurring charges when you subscribe.
  • ·You can cancel at any time from your account settings, or by emailing support@ariha.life. Cancellation stops future renewals; access continues until the end of the period you already paid for.
  • ·Except where required by law, payments already made are non-refundable, and we do not provide partial refunds for unused time.
  • ·We may change pricing with reasonable advance notice. Price changes apply to renewals after the notice period, and you may cancel before they take effect.
  • ·Payments are processed by third-party payment providers. We do not receive or store your full card details.

13. No professional relationship; assumption of risk

You acknowledge that using the Service does not create any therapist-client, physician-patient, counsellor, coach, attorney-client, or fiduciary relationship, and that no statement in the Service has been reviewed or approved by any licensed professional or regulatory body, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

You use ARIHA voluntarily and at your own risk, and you take full responsibility for any decision, action, or inaction you take based on anything you read, hear, or reflect on in the Service.

14. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ARIHA, its owners, operators, employees, contractors, and suppliers from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, your violation of any law, or your reliance on AI-generated content.

15. Governing law, arbitration, and class-action waiver

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act with respect to arbitration.

  • ·Informal resolution first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to contact us at support@ariha.life and give us 30 days to try to resolve the dispute.
  • ·Binding arbitration. Any dispute that is not resolved informally will be settled by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, conducted remotely or in the county where you live.
  • ·Class-action waiver. Disputes must be brought in your individual capacity only. You and we waive any right to bring or participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action, or to a jury trial.
  • ·Small claims and opt-out. Either party may bring a qualifying claim in small-claims court. You may opt out of arbitration by emailing us within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.
  • ·Any claim must be filed within one year after it arises, to the extent permitted by law.

16. Export, sanctions and local law

You may not use the Service where doing so is prohibited by applicable law, sanctions, or export controls. You are responsible for complying with the laws of the place you access the Service from.

17. Severability and entire agreement

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions stay in full force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior understandings. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

ARIHA is self-reflection software for personal growth. It is an automated companion that runs in your browser — it does not predict the future, diagnose, or provide medical, psychological, or professional advice, and it is not a substitute for therapy or licensed care. If you are in distress or in crisis, please contact a qualified professional or your local emergency services.
