AION is an open-source cryptographic protocol, currently a v0.5 unaudited prototype operated by a single maintainer of record. Reading this is the agreement that makes you eligible to use the cryptographic flows.
The Service is provided as-is and as-available, without warranty of any kind, express or implied.
v0.5 is an unaudited prototype. Do not seal anything you cannot afford to lose. The audit lands at the close of Phase 1.
AION cannot read, decrypt, or recover what is sealed. If fewer than the required threshold shards remain, AION cannot reconstruct the vault. This is a property of the architecture at the commit hash recorded with your acceptance, not a policy choice. AION cannot perform what mathematics forbids.
AION's aggregate liability to you is the greater of fifty United States dollars ($50) or the fees you paid AION for the subject vault in the prior twelve months. No indirect, consequential, punitive, or special damages.
Disputes are resolved by individual binding arbitration (AAA Consumer Rules in the United States; JAMS for European consumers). You waive class, collective, and representative actions. Non-derogable consumer rights in your residence are preserved.
You will not seal child sexual abuse material, infringing IP, sanctions-targeted technology, or material whose mere encryption is a crime in your domicile. AION cannot detect the sealed content; responsibility is yours.
You attest, under penalty of perjury, that you are at least 18, of sound mind, not under duress or undue influence, not in active mental-health crisis, not subject to a guardianship or conservatorship that would forbid this action, and not sealing on behalf of a person who has not given you lawful authority. You understand that sealing is cryptographically irrevocable. See the Safety doctrine for the protections that follow from this attestation and for crisis resources.

By clicking I AGREE below, you accept these commitments at commit v0.3.0. The acceptance time is recorded on this device. Material changes to the cryptographic primitives require a new acceptance.
