Terms of Service
Effective Date: March 25, 2026 · Last Updated: June 17, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Grade My Take (“the App”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the App. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Zaela LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. Users between 13 and 18 represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and accepted these Terms.
3. Account
You may use the App without creating an account. Signing in with a valid Google account enables score history, streak tracking, public and competitive eligibility, and the friend features described in Section 7. You are responsible for all activity under your account. Notify us at info@zaelasolutions.com if you suspect unauthorized access.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Submit content that is hateful, threatening, sexually explicit, infringes another party’s rights, or is otherwise inappropriate
- Set a display name or tagline that is offensive, misleading, impersonates another person, or violates any applicable law
- Attempt to circumvent play limits, bot verification, or other controls through any technical means
- Use automated scripts or bots to interact with the App
- Manipulate community voting through duplicate or coordinated accounts, paid voting, or any scheme designed to inflate or suppress scores
- Reverse engineer, hack, or otherwise compromise the App’s security or systems
5. Artificial Intelligence Disclosure
Content you submit in game modes is processed by third-party AI to generate scores, explanations, summaries, reactions, or similar output. All AI-generated output is subjective and provided for entertainment purposes only. AI output may occasionally be inaccurate or unexpected, and we are not responsible for the content of AI-generated responses. AI-generated summaries may not exactly match the wording you submitted and are not reviewed by a human before being displayed.
We apply automated safety screening to submissions to detect content that expresses self-harm or suicidal intent. When such content is detected, the normal flow is replaced with information about mental health crisis resources. This automated screening is imperfect, is not a substitute for professional mental health care, and the App is not a crisis intervention service. If you are in crisis, please contact 988 (US), Crisis Text Line (text HOME to 741741), Samaritans (UK & Ireland, 116 123), or another appropriate emergency resource. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any outcome arising from the operation or non-operation of this screening.
6. User Content and Public Visibility
You retain ownership of the content you submit. By submitting content, you grant Zaela LLC a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to use, store, reproduce, modify, adapt, distribute, display, and create derivative works from your submissions for any lawful purpose related to operating, improving, developing, or commercializing the App and Zaela LLC’s products, services, and business. If you set a public display name or share your result, the displayed version of your response may be shown publicly on leaderboards, in share previews, and — when a response ranks near the top of a daily game mode — in a public archive of past daily results; such pages may be indexed by search engines. By choosing to set a display name or share your result, you consent to this public visibility.
While you hold an active paid subscription, your player card — including your display name, an optional tagline and badge you set, summary statistics, and the answers that finished in a daily top tier — is publicly viewable at a profile page and may be indexed by search engines. Players without an active subscription have a private player card visible only to themselves, and your card becomes private again if your subscription lapses.
To keep public features family-friendly and free of duplicates, we may hide individual submissions from public display at our discretion, including (but not limited to) submissions that contain inappropriate content, substantially duplicate another player’s answer, or otherwise violate the Acceptable Use rules in Section 4. Hidden submissions may still be scored and remain visible to the player who submitted them; they are simply not shown publicly.
Signed-in players meeting our voting eligibility rules may vote on leaderboard entries. Votes contribute to a community-adjusted score that is displayed publicly alongside the AI score and may determine ranking order. We reserve the right to disregard or remove votes that we reasonably believe are the result of coordinated manipulation, duplicate accounts, or other abuse, and to adjust or recompute scores at any time.
7. Friend Connections
Signed-in players may add other signed-in players as mutual friends, subject to limits we may set or change at our discretion. Friend connections are created either by sending a friend request to another player from within the App (which they may accept or decline) or by sharing a personal invite link, which any signed-in recipient may open to add you as a friend. Do not share your invite link with people you do not want as friends. Either party may remove the connection at any time, which deletes it for both sides without notification. We reserve the right to limit, throttle, or revoke friend functionality in cases of suspected abuse.
8. Subscriptions and Payments
We offer optional paid subscriptions that unlock additional features. Current pricing and feature details are shown within the App. Payment is processed by Stripe; we never receive or store your payment card details. Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. You may cancel at any time, and access continues until the end of your current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial billing periods, except where required by law. Pricing and features are subject to change with reasonable notice. By subscribing, you agree to Stripe’s terms of service.
9. Email Reminders
If you opt in, we send reminder emails. Email reminders are strictly opt-in and never enabled by default. You may opt out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email or by toggling reminders within the App. For more details on how we handle your email, see our Privacy Policy.
10. Intellectual Property
The App, including its design, code, prompts, game content, and branding, is owned by Zaela LLC and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on the App without our express written permission.
11. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties. You may delete your account at any time from within the App, which removes your account and associated data. You may also request deletion by contacting info@zaelasolutions.com.
12. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
13. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ZAELA LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE OR (B) $100.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Zaela LLC and its members, officers, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your use of the App, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
15. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
Governing law. These Terms and any dispute between you and Zaela LLC are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.
Let’s talk first. If you have a problem, please contact us at info@zaelasolutions.com and give us at least 30 days to resolve it informally. Most issues can be sorted out this way.
Where disputes are handled.If we can’t resolve a dispute informally, you agree that it will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Ohio, and you and Zaela LLC each consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. Either party may still bring a qualifying individual claim in small-claims court.
16. Advertising
The App is supported in part by third-party advertising. Ads are served by Google and its partners through Google AdSense and may use cookies and similar technologies, as described in our Privacy Policy. We do not control and are not responsible for the content of ads or any third-party sites or products they link to. An active paid subscription removes ads. You agree not to click or interact with ads fraudulently or to take any action that violates the ad providers’ policies.
17. Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. We may modify these Terms at any time and will indicate the date of the most recent update at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform due to causes beyond our reasonable control.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Zaela LLC regarding the App. Questions? Contact Zaela LLC at info@zaelasolutions.com.
