Welcome to AURA. These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and AURA ("we," "us," "our") governing your access to and use of the AURA mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use AURA.

Account Creation
You may create an account using your email address or through a supported third-party sign-in provider (such as Apple or Google). You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your account information updated.
Account Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials.

03
How AURA Works
AURA provides a personality-first dating experience powered by artificial intelligence. By using the Service, you acknowledge and agree to the following mechanics:
AI Personality DNA
During onboarding, you will engage in an AI-powered conversation to generate your Personality DNA and Emotional Fingerprint.
Your conversation responses are analyzed by AI to identify personality traits, communication style, and compatibility factors.
The AI analysis is a computational interpretation and does not constitute a psychological assessment, diagnosis, or professional evaluation.
Blur Reveal System
All matches begin with blurred profile photos that progressively reveal through a 4-stage system.
Blur progression is earned through genuine interaction, mission completion, and mutual engagement.
The reveal pace is determined by the system and may vary based on activity level and match dynamics.
You understand that you may not see a match's full photos or profile until sufficient interaction has occurred.
Chemistry Score & Matching
AURA uses AI-generated Chemistry Scores to suggest compatible matches. These scores are estimates based on personality analysis and do not guarantee relationship success or compatibility.
The number of daily matches is limited and may vary between free and premium tiers.
Matches may expire if no interaction occurs within the designated timeframe.
Confession Wall
The Confession Wall allows users to post anonymous confessions visible to the AURA community.
Confessions are subject to content moderation. Mutual "resonance" on confessions may generate match suggestions.
While confessions are displayed anonymously, they are linked to your account internally for moderation purposes.
Shared Missions
AI may pair you with another user for collaborative missions before any profile information is revealed.
Mission participation is voluntary. Declining or abandoning missions may affect your match progression.
Near-Miss Notifications
AURA may send notifications about potential connections, expiring matches, or other engagement prompts.
These notifications are system-generated and designed to enhance the experience. You may disable notifications at any time through your device settings.
04
User Conduct
AURA is built on respect, authenticity, and genuine human connection. You agree to abide by the following rules of conduct:
You Agree To
Treat all users with dignity and respect.
Use only your own authentic photos and information.
Engage honestly and in good faith with matches and features.
Report any behavior that violates these Terms or makes you feel unsafe.
You Agree Not To
Prohibited Conduct
Harass, bully, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or defame any user.
Post, send, or share any content that is sexually explicit, pornographic, violent, hateful, discriminatory, or illegal.
Impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity, age, or affiliations.
Use AURA for commercial purposes, advertising, solicitation, or spam.
Solicit money, financial information, or personal contact details for fraudulent purposes.
Use automated systems, bots, scrapers, or scripts to access or interact with the Service.
Attempt to circumvent the Blur Reveal system, screenshot protections, or other security features.
Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the application.
Create multiple accounts, or create a new account after having been terminated.
Share, distribute, or publicly post private conversations, photos, or profile information of other users without their consent.
Use the Service to engage in any activity that is unlawful in your jurisdiction.
Exploit, manipulate, or abuse the matching algorithm, reward system, or any other feature for unfair advantage.
Violation of these conduct rules may result in content removal, account suspension, or permanent termination at our sole discretion.
05
User Content
Your Content
You retain ownership of the content you create and share on AURA, including photos, messages, confessions, and mission responses ("User Content"). By submitting User Content, you grant AURA a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, display, and distribute your User Content solely for the purpose of operating, improving, and promoting the Service.
Content Standards
All User Content must comply with the following standards:
Photos must be of you and must not contain nudity, graphic violence, or illegal content.
Content must not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party.
Confession Wall posts must not target, identify, or defame specific individuals.
Content must not promote illegal activities, substances, or self-harm.
Content Removal
We reserve the right to remove any User Content that violates these Terms or that we deem, in our sole discretion, to be inappropriate, harmful, or detrimental to the community — without prior notice. You may also remove your own content at any time.
Content Responsibility
You are solely responsible for your User Content. AURA does not endorse, verify, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any User Content. Your interactions with other users and their content are at your own risk.
06
Safety & Moderation
The safety of our community is our highest priority. AURA employs the following safety measures:
Automated Moderation
AI-powered content filtering automatically scans messages, photos, and confessions for explicit, harmful, or harassing content.
Screenshot detection alerts may be triggered when screenshots are captured within certain areas of the app.
You may block any user at any time. Blocked users cannot view your profile, send messages, or interact with you in any way.
You may report any user or content that violates these Terms. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team and, where applicable, by automated systems.
We take all reports seriously and may take action including warnings, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans.
Safety Advisories
AURA may display safety prompts during certain interactions, such as confirming decisions made during late-night usage.
These advisories are informational and do not create any liability or obligation on our part.
Important Safety Notice
AURA does not conduct criminal background checks on users. We cannot guarantee the identity or intentions of any user. Always exercise caution when communicating with people you meet through the Service. Never share financial information and always arrange first meetings in public places. If you feel threatened or unsafe, contact local law enforcement immediately.
07
After Dark Mode
After Dark is a time-limited feature available between 10:00 PM and 3:00 AM (local time) that provides a modified experience with different interaction dynamics.
Opt-In Nature: After Dark features are optional. You may enable or disable After Dark through the app settings.
Modified Rules: After Dark includes faster blur reveal progression, different mission types, Whisper messaging, the Hot/Cold game, and Last Train matches. All content standards and conduct rules in these Terms apply equally during After Dark.
Whisper Messages: Whisper allows sending anonymous messages to unmatched users. Whisper messages are subject to the same content moderation and conduct rules as all other communications. Abuse of Whisper will result in feature revocation or account termination.
Age-Appropriate Content: After Dark does not permit adult, explicit, or pornographic content. The same content standards apply at all times.
Decision Safeguards: AURA may present confirmation prompts for certain actions during After Dark hours. These are optional safety measures and do not represent a duty of care.

AI & Matching Disclaimer
Understanding Our AI
AURA's AI features are designed to enhance your dating experience, but they have inherent limitations. Please read this section carefully.
Not Professional Advice: AI-generated personality analysis, Chemistry Scores, and compatibility assessments are computational estimates for entertainment and social connection purposes. They do not constitute psychological, medical, or professional advice.
No Guarantee of Compatibility: Chemistry Scores and match suggestions are based on AI analysis of personality data. A high score does not guarantee romantic compatibility, relationship success, or personal safety.
AI Limitations: Our AI systems may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or biased results. Personality DNA profiles are interpretive models, not definitive descriptions of who you are.
Human Judgment: AI matching is a supplement to, not a replacement for, your own judgment. Always use your personal discretion when interacting with matches.
Continuous Improvement: Our AI models are continuously updated and improved. Your match suggestions and Chemistry Scores may change over time as algorithms evolve.
No Identity Verification: While our AI analyzes personality traits, it does not verify the identity, background, or intentions of users. Exercise the same caution you would with any online interaction.
