Dialectiq is an AI debate coach — a learning tool for the philosophy of logic, rhetoric, and reasoning. This page explains what information the app handles, how, and the terms under which you may use it. By using Dialectiq you agree to these terms.
Your debate text (including text transcribed on-device from voice input) passes through our server (Cloudflare Workers) to our AI providers:
Your content is used solely to generate your debate experience. It is not sold and not used for advertising. It is shared with no one other than the AI providers listed above, whose own privacy policies govern their handling of it.
Dialectiq's opponent, coach, and judge are artificial intelligence systems. AI-generated text can be inaccurate, incomplete, or offensive, and does not reflect the views of the operator. Dialectiq is an educational tool for practicing reasoning — it is not a source of facts and not professional, legal, medical, financial, or other advice. Verify important claims independently. You are responsible for how you use or rely on anything the AI says.
Dialectiq is a learning tool and may be used by students. It is not directed at children under 13, and you must be at least 13 to use it. If you are under 18, use Dialectiq with a parent or guardian's permission.
Because your profile, history, and settings live only on your device, you can erase them at any time by clearing the app's data or reinstalling. Anything sent to AI providers is processed in real time under their own privacy policies (Groq, Google).
If you use the in-app feedback form to report a bug or suggest a feature, that report (your message plus basic device information such as browser/app type) is stored on our servers so the developer can read and act on it. Reports contain no account or identity — only what you choose to write. They are kept until reviewed and deleted, and you can ask for deletion of a report at any time via the contact below.
Dialectiq (by John Louis Anetrella) stores your data only on your device — we keep nothing about you on our servers, so there is no retention period and nothing to expire.
The one exception is beta feedback you choose to send us (see above), which is stored until reviewed and deleted.
Data deleted when you clear the app's data or uninstall: your display name, profile password, app preferences and settings, debate history, tokens, ranks, badges, and any API key you entered. All of it is erased.
Data kept: none. Debate text is processed in real time by our AI providers (Groq, Google Gemini) and is not stored by us. Voice audio never leaves your device.
Two ways to delete:
We reserve the right to restrict access in cases of misuse.
Dialectiq is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operator shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of Dialectiq — including any reliance on AI-generated content.
If this page changes materially, the updated version will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use of Dialectiq after changes means you accept the updated terms.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, USA.
