Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using Deep Personality ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use the App.

2. Educational and Informational Purpose

This service provides educational and informational content about personality psychology. It is not a psychological service, psychological assessment, or psychological treatment as defined by any regulatory body.

Deep Personality is a consumer information product, similar to:

• Genetic ancestry services (23andMe, Ancestry)
• Personality type indicators (16Personalities, Enneagram tests)
• Health tracking applications (fitness trackers, sleep monitors)

Like these services, we provide data and interpretations for personal use. We do not provide clinical diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or professional psychological services.

3. No Professional Relationship

Use of this service does not create a psychologist-patient, therapist-client, or any professional healthcare relationship. Deep Personality Inc. does not employ, contract with, or represent any licensed psychologists, psychiatrists, or mental health professionals in providing this service.

The interpretations provided are generated by artificial intelligence algorithms and have not been reviewed, approved, or endorsed by any licensed mental health professional or regulatory body.

4. Nature of the Service

Deep Personality provides personality insights and self-reflection tools based on established psychological frameworks. The assessments include personality traits, Dark Triad indicators, and mental health screening questions (GAD-7, PHQ-9, ACE, PCL-5).

This App is NOT:

• Medical or psychological advice
• A diagnostic tool for mental health conditions
• A substitute for professional mental health care
• A replacement for consultation with qualified healthcare providers

All scores and analyses are based on self-reported responses and should be used for personal reflection purposes only. If you are experiencing mental health concerns, please consult a licensed mental health professional.

5. Dark Triad Assessment

The Dark Triad assessment measures three personality traits: Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychopathy. These are personality dimensions that exist on a spectrum in the general population.

High scores do not indicate a personality disorder or mental illness. These traits are not clinical diagnoses and should not be interpreted as such. The results are intended for self-awareness and personal development only.

6. Mental Health Screening Tools

The App includes validated screening instruments (GAD-7, PHQ-9, ACE, PCL-5) that are commonly used in clinical settings. However, their use in this App is for informational purposes only.

If your results suggest elevated anxiety, depression, trauma, or other concerns, please seek support from a qualified mental health professional.

7. User Responsibility

You acknowledge and agree that:

• You are using this App voluntarily and at your own discretion
• You are solely responsible for how you interpret and act upon your results
• You will not use the results to diagnose yourself or others
• You will seek professional help for any mental health concerns
• Sharing your profile with others is your choice and responsibility

8. AI-Generated Content Limitations

The App uses artificial intelligence to generate personality analyses and relationship insights. Our AI interpretations are:

• Generated by language models trained on general psychological literature
• Not validated against clinical diagnostic standards
• Not equivalent to assessment by a licensed professional
• Provided "as-is" without guarantee of accuracy or applicability

Different users with identical scores may receive different interpretations. The AI does not have access to your life context, history, or circumstances that a professional would consider. AI-generated content should not be relied upon for important decisions.

9. Assumption of Risk

By using this service, you acknowledge and accept that:

• Personality assessment involves inherent uncertainty
• Self-report data has known limitations
• You may encounter information about yourself that is uncomfortable
• Psychological self-reflection can occasionally trigger emotional responses
• You are solely responsible for how you interpret and use results

You voluntarily assume all risks associated with using this service.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Deep Personality Inc. and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the App, including but not limited to emotional distress, relationship decisions, or actions taken based on assessment results.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Deep Personality Inc., its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:

• Your use of the service
• Your violation of these Terms
• Your violation of any third party rights
• Any claim that your use of results caused harm to yourself or others

12. Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

13. Modifications

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified terms.

14. Geographic Availability

This service is available to users in Canada and the United States only. By using this service, you represent that you are located in one of these countries.

15. Dispute Resolution

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this service shall be resolved through binding arbitration in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, administered by the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre (BCICAC) in accordance with its rules, rather than in court. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

For users in the United States: By using this service, you agree that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision, and you waive your right to a jury trial.

Class Action Waiver: You agree to waive any right to participate in class action lawsuits, class-wide arbitration, or any consolidated or representative proceedings against Deep Personality Inc. All claims must be brought in your individual capacity.

Exceptions: This arbitration agreement does not apply to: (a) disputes that qualify for small claims court in your jurisdiction; (b) claims for injunctive relief to prevent unauthorized use of intellectual property; or (c) complaints filed with government agencies (such as the FTC or privacy commissioners) that may seek relief on your behalf.

Costs: Each party shall bear its own costs and attorney fees. If any portion of this arbitration clause is found unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in effect.

16. Governing Law

These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, without regard to conflict of law principles. For users in the United States, the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration-related matters.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the parties' original intent.
