Acceptable Use Policy — CurryStudio by AI for Good

This Policy is Part of Your Agreement

This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") forms part of your agreement with AI for Good and supplements our Terms of Service. Violation of this AUP may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account without refund.

CurryStudio is an AI-powered interactive learning platform. We provide this service to support education, curiosity, and genuine learning. This Policy defines what use is and is not acceptable. It applies to all users, regardless of plan, location, or account type.

Medical conditions including mental health, self-harm, and suicide (permitted for health literacy; we follow safe messaging guidelines)
Legal processes including criminal law and court procedures
Political ideologies including extremist movements (permitted for academic analysis, not promotion)

Scraping — systematically extracting content from the Service for commercial purposes without express written permission

Infrastructure attacks — any attempt to overload, disrupt, or attack our servers, APIs, or infrastructure (DDoS, injection attacks, etc.)
Data harvesting — collecting personal data about other users from the platform
Misrepresenting AI output — presenting AI-generated content as your own original human-authored work where this is prohibited or constitutes fraud

Third-Party AI Provider Policies

CurryStudio routes your prompts through Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT-4), and Google (Gemini). By using CurryStudio, you also agree to comply with each provider's usage policies. These policies have their own restrictions that apply directly to you as a downstream user:

Where our AUP and a provider's policy conflict, the stricter requirement applies. We are not liable for content moderation decisions made by Third-Party AI Providers.

Minors

CurryStudio is designed for users aged 13 and above. Users aged 13–17 in India (or the applicable digital age of consent in their jurisdiction) must have verifiable parental or guardian consent.

You must not create an account on behalf of a minor without proper parental consent
You must not use the Service to generate sexual, violent, or otherwise inappropriate content directed at minors
If we discover that a user is under the minimum age, we will suspend the account and delete associated data in accordance with our Privacy Policy
Parents or guardians who believe their child has registered without consent should contact privacy@curry.studio immediately

Academic Integrity

CurryStudio is a learning tool, not a substitute for original work. You are responsible for understanding and complying with the academic integrity policies of any educational institution you are enrolled in.

Important — Your Responsibility

Submitting AI-generated content as your own original work where your institution prohibits this may constitute academic misconduct. CurryStudio is not liable for consequences arising from such misuse. Use the platform to learn and understand — not to replace your own thinking.

Many institutions now permit or even encourage AI-assisted work with proper disclosure. Check your institution's policy and, when in doubt, disclose that AI was used in your process.

Intellectual Property

When using CurryStudio:

Do not submit prompts that include copyrighted material in its entirety (e.g., full text of books, song lyrics, proprietary code) without authorisation
Do not use the Service to generate content that infringes third-party intellectual property rights, including trademarks, patents, and copyrights
AI Output may sometimes resemble existing works due to training data — you are responsible for checking output for potential infringement before commercial use
We do not claim ownership of AI Output generated in response to your prompts — see our Terms of Service Section 8 for IP ownership details

Enforcement

How We Enforce This Policy

We use a combination of automated safety filters (built into our AI providers), human review triggered by reports, and periodic audits to detect violations. We do not proactively monitor every conversation.

Consequences of Violation

Severity	Examples	Action
Minor — first offence	Accidental jailbreak attempt, borderline content	Warning email; content blocked
Moderate	Repeated jailbreaking, automated abuse, account sharing	Temporary suspension (7–30 days); no refund
Severe	Harassment, generation of illegal content, infrastructure attacks	Immediate permanent termination; no refund; possible legal action
Critical	CSAM, terrorism content, weapons assistance	Immediate termination; mandatory reporting to law enforcement

We reserve the right to determine the severity of any violation at our sole discretion. Appeals may be submitted to support@curry.studio within 14 days of any enforcement action.

Reporting Violations

If you encounter content or behaviour that violates this AUP — whether your own or another user's — please report it:

Urgent / illegal content: safety@curry.studio — we aim to respond within 4 hours
General violations: support@curry.studio — we respond within 1 business day
Grievance Officer: Yatin Shah — grievance@curry.studio — for formal complaints under IT Rules 2021

We treat all reports confidentially and do not disclose the identity of reporters except where required by law.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this AUP from time to time to reflect changes in our platform, applicable law, or the usage policies of our Third-Party AI Providers. Material changes will be communicated via email and an in-app notice at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated AUP.

This Acceptable Use Policy is published by AI for Good on behalf of CurryStudio and is effective as of 1 April 2026. It forms part of your agreement with us alongside the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. It does not constitute legal advice.
