Excalibur AI : Terms & Conditions

Please review these terms before using Excalibur AI. This is a draft intended for legal review, not a guarantee against lawsuits.

1. Who provides the service

Excalibur AI is a student-focused application created by Biruk Asres and Rajih Mpanga. It is an independent project and is not an official Gannon University or Blackboard service unless expressly stated otherwise.

2. Agreement and eligibility

By checking the agreement box and selecting Continue, you accept these terms and acknowledge the Privacy Notice. You must have legal capacity to agree, or obtain permission from a parent or guardian where required by law. If you disagree, do not use the service.

3. What Excalibur AI does

The service offers AI-assisted studying, Blackboard calendar information, cafeteria information and links to third-party study-room booking services. Features, integrations and availability may change or be discontinued.

4. AI can make mistakes

AI-generated replies, deadlines, schedules, room availability and other information may be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. Check assignments and grades in official Blackboard records; confirm any reservation directly with the library. The service does not guarantee academic performance, bookings, or uninterrupted operation.

5. Academic integrity and acceptable use

You must follow your instructors' rules and your school's academic-integrity policies. Do not use Excalibur AI for cheating, harassment, impersonation, unlawful conduct, attempts to disrupt the service, or submitting information you lack permission to share.

6. Accounts and safety

The regular login identifies users by a chosen username and does not verify identity or protect accounts with passwords. Do not use a username that impersonates someone else. Do not enter passwords, payment card details, highly sensitive personal information, or confidential student records into the chat.

7. Data and third-party services

The service may save usernames, submitted prompts, usage events, and terms-acceptance records in its database. Some features send inputs or retrieve information through external AI, calendar, dining, or room-booking providers. Please read the Privacy Notice for details. Third-party services have their own terms and policies.

8. Availability and changes

We may modify, limit or suspend the service for maintenance, security, misuse, or other operational reasons. We may update these terms. When material changes are made, the app should require acceptance of a new version before further use.

9. No warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of accuracy, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so they may not apply to you.

10. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Excalibur AI's operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, including lost data, lost opportunities, missed deadlines or failed reservations arising from use of the service. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

11. Legal rights

These terms do not waive rights that cannot be waived under applicable consumer, privacy or other laws. Any legal dispute remains subject to the applicable law and courts with proper jurisdiction.

12. Contact

For questions about these terms or a privacy request, contact the project operator through the contact information published within Excalibur AI. A verified support email and any required operator details should be added before formal public launch.
