Terms of Service
Valdris is operated by Eynhallo LLC.
· Last updated: August 6, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal
agreement between you (“you,”
“your”) and Eynhallo LLC
(“Eynhallo,” “we,”
“us”), a limited liability company organized under
the laws of the State of Tennessee, United States, governing your access to and use of
Valdris — our subscription, browser-based, AI-narrated
role-playing game and the related website, application, and services
(together, the “Service”), available at
playvaldris.com, play.eynhallo.com, and related domains.
By creating an account, signing in, or using the Service, you agree
to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our
Credits & Attribution notice. If you do
not agree, do not use the Service. Please read
Section 3 (AI-Generated Content),
Section 16 (Limitation of Liability), and
Section 18 (Dispute Resolution & Arbitration)
carefully — they affect your legal rights, including how disputes are
resolved and your right to bring or join a class action.

1. The Service
Valdris is a single-player, text-first fantasy role-playing game you play
in a web browser. Game rules and mechanics (dice, combat, character
progression, and similar) are computed by our software, while story prose,
scene descriptions, and non-player-character dialogue are produced on the fly
by an artificial-intelligence model (see Section 3).
The Service is provided online as a hosted service; you are not sold or given
a copy of the software, and nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of the
Service to you.
The Service is offered on an evolving basis and is under active
development. Features, content, and availability may change or be
discontinued (see Section 14).
2. Eligibility & age
You must be at least 18 years old — or the age of
majority in your jurisdiction, if higher — to create an account or use
the Service. The Service is intended for adults and is not directed to
minors.
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least
18 years old (or the age of majority where you live); (b) you have the legal
capacity and authority to enter into a binding contract with Eynhallo; and
(c) you are not barred from using the Service under the laws of your
jurisdiction. If you do not meet these requirements, you may not use the
Service.
3. AI-generated content
This is an important section. Please read it in full.
- How it is made. The narration, descriptions, NPC
dialogue, choices, and other story text you see are generated automatically
by one or more third-party AI models (the providers and models may change). This content is created
dynamically in response to your inputs and is not written or
reviewed by a human before you see it.
- It is fiction, and it is unpredictable. AI output is
probabilistic and inherently unpredictable. It may be inaccurate,
nonsensical, repetitive, inconsistent with earlier events in your game, or
unexpected. Despite the safeguards we use, it may occasionally produce
content that is disturbing, violent, or offensive. Valdris is a fantasy
adventure for adults that includes mature themes such as combat, danger,
and conflict.
- For entertainment only — no reliance. All
AI-generated content is provided solely for interactive entertainment. It
is fictional and must not be relied on as factual, or as professional,
medical, legal, financial, safety, or other advice. Any resemblance to real
persons, places, or events is coincidental.
- Safeguards are not guarantees. We use measures such as
curated content, name filtering, profanity scrubbing, and instructions to
the model to steer output, but we cannot and do not guarantee that AI
output will always be accurate, consistent, appropriate, or free of
objectionable material.
- Third-party processing. To generate the next passage,
your inputs and relevant game context are transmitted to the AI provider,
which processes them under its own terms. See our
Privacy Policy.
- No liability for AI output. To the maximum extent
permitted by law, Eynhallo is not responsible or liable for AI-generated
content or for any action taken or not taken in reliance on it. Your sole
remedy if you are dissatisfied with the content is to stop using the
Service. Please report objectionable output using in-app feedback.
4. Accounts & registration
You need an account to use the Service. Authentication is handled by our
third-party identity provider (Clerk). You agree to provide accurate
information, to keep your credentials secure, and to be responsible for all
activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly of any
unauthorised use. You may not share, sell, or transfer your account, and you
may not maintain more than one account except as we permit. We may refuse,
suspend, or reclaim any account or username at our discretion, including for
violation of these Terms.
5. Subscriptions, billing, auto-renewal & refunds
- Paid subscriptions. Some features require a paid
subscription. Available plans, prices, and what each includes —
including any metering by the number of exchanges (single
back-and-forth turns with the game) per month — are described
on our pricing and checkout pages, which are incorporated into these Terms. Any free tier or trial is offered
at our discretion and may change or end.
- Payment processor. Payments are processed by our
third-party processor, Stripe. By subscribing you also
agree to Stripe’s terms and authorise us and Stripe to charge your
selected payment method. We do not store full payment-card numbers.
- Clear disclosure and your consent before you are charged.
Before you subscribe, we present to you, clearly and conspicuously and next
to the point of consent: the plan name and what it includes, the price and
any applicable taxes or fees, the billing frequency (for example, monthly),
the fact that the subscription automatically renews until
cancelled, and how to cancel. We charge your payment method only
after you affirmatively agree (for example, by clicking
“Subscribe”). Your subscription and billing begin only after
that consent.
- Automatic renewal. Your subscription
automatically renews at the end of each billing period at
the then-current price for your plan, and your payment method is charged on
a recurring basis, until you cancel. You authorise these
recurring charges. We will send any renewal reminders, acknowledgements, and
notices required by applicable law.
- Cancel any time — as easy as signing up. You may
cancel at any time through your account’s billing settings (the Stripe
customer portal), using the same online method by which you subscribed
— no phone call, email, or retention step is required. Cancellation
stops future renewals and takes effect at the end of your then-current
billing period; you keep access until then.
- Price changes. We may change subscription prices. We
will notify you at least thirty (30) days in advance, by
email or in-app notice, before a price increase applies to you; the new
price applies only to billing periods beginning after that notice. If you do
not agree, you may cancel before the increase takes effect. Continuing to
use the Service after the effective date is your acceptance of the new
price.
- Refunds. Subscription charges pay in advance for the
applicable billing period. Except where required by law, all charges
are final and non-refundable, and we do not provide refunds,
credits, or proration for partially used billing periods, for unused
exchanges or other allowances, or for any period after you cancel. We may,
in our sole discretion, offer a refund or credit in an individual case;
doing so does not obligate us to do so again. Nothing in this section limits
any non-waivable statutory rights you may have.
- EU / EEA / UK withdrawal right. If you are a consumer in
the EU, EEA, or UK, you may have a statutory right to withdraw from a
purchase within 14 days. Because the Service is digital content supplied
immediately, by starting to use the Service you expressly request that we
begin providing it right away and acknowledge that, to the extent permitted
by law, you lose that right of withdrawal once we have begun performing and
you have started using the Service.
- Taxes & metering. Prices are exclusive of
applicable taxes unless stated; you are responsible for those taxes. Metered
allowances (for example, exchanges per month) reset at the start of each
billing period and do not roll over. We may also apply reasonable limits to
prevent abuse or protect the Service.
6. Your licence to use the Service
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to
access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial
entertainment. This is a licence to use a hosted service, not a sale
or licence of software; you receive no copy of the software. All rights not
expressly granted are reserved. This licence ends automatically if you violate
these Terms or when your access ends. Your use is also subject to the
restrictions in Section 11.
7. Our intellectual property
Except for third-party and licensed content identified in
Section 8 and your content under
Section 9, the Service and all of its
original contents — including the Valdris name and branding, the
original setting, world, lore, characters, artwork, text, the software and
source code, and the arrangement and “look and feel” — are
owned by Eynhallo or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property
and other laws. “Valdris,” “Eynhallo,” and related
marks and logos are trademarks of Eynhallo. You may not copy, reproduce,
republish, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display,
or commercially exploit any part of the Service except as expressly permitted
by these Terms or with our prior written consent.
8. Third-party & licensed content (SRD / Wizards of the Coast)
The Service’s game rules and mechanics include material from the
System Reference Document 5.2.1 (“SRD 5.2.1”) by
Wizards of the Coast LLC, used under the Creative Commons Attribution
4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence. The required attribution and a
note that changes were made appear on our
Credits & Attribution page.
No affiliation or endorsement. Valdris is an independent
product. It is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored by, or
approved by Wizards of the Coast LLC or its affiliates.
“Dungeons & Dragons” and “D&D” are trademarks
of Wizards of the Coast; those marks are not used to name,
describe, market, or endorse Valdris, and any nominal reference is for
identification only.
9. Your content: player inputs & generated story
- Definitions. “Player Inputs”
means the text and choices you submit. “Generated
Content” means the AI-produced story text returned in
response. “Game Content” means your session as a
whole (your Player Inputs together with the Generated Content), including the
exportable Chronicle of your adventure.
- Your Player Inputs. As between you and us, you retain
whatever rights you have in your own Player Inputs. You grant Eynhallo a
worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce,
transmit (including to the AI provider), process, and create the derived
game state necessary to operate, secure, support, and improve the Service.
We do not use the content of your Player Inputs or your Game Content
to train our own generative AI models. We may use aggregated or
de-identified data, and limited content as needed, to operate, secure,
debug, and improve the Service. Your inputs are processed by our third-party
AI provider under its terms; see the
Privacy Policy.
- Ownership of Generated Content is legally uncertain.
Under current U.S. Copyright Office guidance, material generated by AI
without sufficient human authorship is generally not protected by
copyright. We therefore make no promise that you (or we) own, or can
register or enforce, any copyright in the raw Generated Content, and you
should not assume you have exclusive rights in it. Generated Content may also
be non-unique — similar text may be produced for other players.
- Your licence to your own Chronicle. To the extent
Eynhallo holds or is able to grant any rights in your Game Content, we grant
you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to view,
download, and privately enjoy your own Game Content and
Chronicle for personal, non-commercial purposes. This does not grant rights
in our underlying IP (Section 7) or in third-party
content (Section 8), and does not permit
commercial use, resale, or redistribution.
- Deliberate misuse is at your own risk. If you
intentionally craft Player Inputs designed to make the AI generate content
that infringes another party’s intellectual property or right of
publicity, that reproduces protected, trademarked, or third-party
proprietary material, or that is otherwise unlawful, you do so
entirely at your own risk and are solely responsible for that content and
any use you make of it. You agree to indemnify Eynhallo for such
conduct as set out in Section 17. This conduct
is also prohibited under Section 11.
10. Your representations
By using the Service you represent and warrant that: (a) you meet the
eligibility requirements in Section 2,
including that you are at least 18 years old; (b) the information you provide is
accurate and kept current; (c) you have the legal capacity to accept these
Terms and to enter into a binding contract; (d) you will not use the Service
for any illegal or unauthorised purpose; and (e) your use will comply with
these Terms and applicable law.
11. Prohibited activities
You agree not to, and not to attempt to or permit others to:
- use the Service for any unlawful, infringing, fraudulent, harassing, or
harmful purpose, or in violation of any applicable law or these Terms;
- access, search, scrape, crawl, or harvest the Service or its content by
any automated means (bots, scripts, spiders), or bulk-extract data, except
as we expressly permit;
- attempt to discover, extract, reveal, copy, or reproduce the system
prompt, instructions, model, weights, or other underlying components of the
Service, or otherwise reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of
it, except to the limited extent such a restriction is prohibited by
applicable law;
- use prompt injection or other techniques to circumvent, disable, or
interfere with content safeguards, rate limits, metering, billing, or
security features;
- deliberately induce the AI to produce content that infringes third-party
intellectual property, reproduces protected or trademarked material, or is
defamatory, unlawful, or otherwise prohibited (see
Section 9.5);
- use the Service, or any Player Inputs or Generated Content, to build,
train, or improve a competing game, product, dataset, or AI model, or to
benchmark the Service for a competitor;
- share, resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit access to the Service;
circumvent usage metering; or use the Service on behalf of a third party
without authorisation;
- upload or transmit viruses or malicious code; probe, scan, or test the
vulnerability of the Service; breach security or authentication; or impose an
unreasonable load on our infrastructure;
- impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation, or use the
Service to harass, abuse, or harm others.
12. Service management
We may, but are not obligated to: monitor the Service for violations of
these Terms; take appropriate legal action against violators; refuse,
restrict, or disable access to any content or account; and otherwise manage the
Service to protect our rights and the Service’s proper functioning. We
may review, and where necessary retain or disclose, Player Inputs and Generated
Content to operate the Service, enforce these Terms, comply with law, or
respond to lawful requests, consistent with the
Privacy Policy.
13. Term & termination
These Terms remain in effect while you use the Service. We may suspend or
terminate your access or account at any time, with or without notice, for any
reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms or applicable
law, or to protect the Service or other users. You may stop using the Service
and delete your account and saves at any time from the account menu; deleting
your account permanently removes your stored data (see the Privacy Policy). If a
paid subscription is terminated by us for your breach, you may not be entitled
to a refund. Provisions that by their nature should survive — including
Sections 7–9 and 14–22 — survive termination.
14. Changes & interruptions to the Service
The Service is evolving. We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any part
of it — including features, content, AI models, world content, and game
balance — at any time, and previously generated content, saved games, or
characters may change or become unavailable. We do not guarantee that the
Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that any saved game will
be preserved indefinitely; we recommend exporting anything you wish to keep. We
are not liable for any unavailability, data loss, or modification of the
Service or its content, and we are under no obligation to maintain, support,
update, or provide corrections.
15. Disclaimers (“AS IS”)
THE SERVICE, INCLUDING ALL AI-GENERATED CONTENT, IS PROVIDED
“AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL
FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR
STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EYNHALLO DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT
THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT
AI-GENERATED CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, CONSISTENT, COMPLETE, OR
APPROPRIATE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN
WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
16. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EYNHALLO AND ITS MEMBERS,
EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA,
GOODWILL, OR SAVED GAME PROGRESS, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR
INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICE OR ANY AI-GENERATED CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON
WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL
AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE
GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU PAID EYNHALLO FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE
(12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED
U.S. DOLLARS (US$100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO
SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
17. Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless Eynhallo and its members, employees, and agents from
and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including
reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the
Service; (b) your Player Inputs, including any Player Inputs deliberately
crafted to produce infringing, protected, or unlawful content (see
Section 9.5); (c) your breach of these Terms or
of any law or third-party right; or (d) your violation of
Section 11. We may assume the exclusive defence
of any matter subject to indemnification, and you agree to cooperate.
18. Dispute resolution & arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY.
It affects your legal rights. It requires most disputes to be resolved by
binding individual arbitration, waives your right to a jury trial and to
participate in a class action, and gives you 30 days to opt out.
- Informal resolution first. Before starting an
arbitration, you agree to contact us at hello@eynhallo.com with a brief
description of the dispute and your contact information, and to give us at
least 30 days to resolve it informally. Most concerns can be resolved this
way.
- Binding individual arbitration. If a dispute is not
resolved informally and does not qualify for small-claims court, you and
Eynhallo agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or
relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by
binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than in
court, except as provided below. The Federal Arbitration Act
governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section. The arbitration
will be administered by the American Arbitration Association
(AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in
effect (available at adr.org). The arbitration will take place in the county
of your residence or, at your election, by telephone, video, or written
submissions, unless you and Eynhallo agree otherwise. The arbitrator’s
award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
- Small-claims carve-out. Instead of arbitration, either
party may bring an individual claim in a small-claims court if the claim
qualifies and stays in that court on an individual (non-class) basis.
- Injunctive / IP carve-out. Either party may seek
injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to
stop the actual or threatened infringement or misuse of intellectual property
or confidential information (including attempts to extract the system prompt
or reverse-engineer the Service).
- Class-action and jury-trial waiver. To the maximum
extent permitted by law, you and Eynhallo agree that each may bring claims
against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as
a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated,
or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one
person’s claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding.
You and Eynhallo also waive any right to a jury trial.
- Your 30-day right to opt out. You may opt out of this
Section 18 (arbitration and class-action waiver) by emailing
hello@eynhallo.com within 30 days of first accepting these
Terms, and stating your name, the email associated with your account, and
that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other part of
these Terms.
- Severability. If the class-action waiver in (5) is found
unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) will
be severed and may proceed in court; the rest of this Section 18 remains in
effect. If this Section is found not to apply to a dispute,
Section 19 governs.
- Non-waivable rights. Nothing in this Section waives any
right or remedy that cannot be waived under applicable law.
19. Governing law
These Terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of the
State of Tennessee, United States of America, without regard to
its conflict-of-laws rules, and, where applicable, by the Federal Arbitration
Act. Subject to Section 18, the exclusive venue for
any permitted court proceeding is the state and federal courts located in
Tennessee. This does not deprive you of any protection of the mandatory consumer
law of your place of residence.
20. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes we
will update the “Last updated” date and provide reasonable notice
(for example by email or in-app notice) before they take effect. Your continued
use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the
updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service.
21. Electronic communications
By using the Service you consent to receive communications from us
electronically (by email or in-app notice), and you agree that electronic
communications, agreements, and notices satisfy any legal requirement that such
communications be in writing. This does not affect any non-waivable right you
have to receive certain communications in a particular form.
22. Miscellaneous
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy,
the Credits & Attribution notice, and any
pricing terms, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service
and supersede prior agreements on that subject. If any provision is held
unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect and the unenforceable
provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary. Our failure to
enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our
consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of
assets. There are no third-party beneficiaries.
