Terms of Service
1. Agreement
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and JUPELLI CONSULTING PRIVATE LIMITED, Flat No. 301, Raghavendra Colony, Kondapur, Serilingampally, K.V.Rangareddy-500084, Telangana, India (“ask tota”, “we”, “us”), governing your use of the ask tota mobile application and related services (the “Service”).
By creating an account or using the Service, you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the Service. Our Privacy Policy forms part of these Terms and explains how we handle your personal data — including that your birth-derived data and chat messages are processed by a third-party AI provider outside India.
2. Entertainment only — please read
ask tota is an entertainment product. It is not advice. Astrology is not a science. The readings, charts, predictions, compatibility scores, and other content the Service produces are for entertainment and self-reflection only. They are generated by an AI language model and are not statements of fact, not predictions of what will happen, and not professional advice of any kind.
In particular, nothing in the Service is, or should be relied upon as:
- medical, health, psychological, or psychiatric advice — always consult a qualified doctor or mental-health professional;
- financial, investment, tax, or business advice — always consult a qualified professional;
- legal advice;
- advice about relationships, marriage, career, education, travel, or any other significant life decision.
Do not make any important decision on the basis of a reading from this app. Compatibility readings in particular are a game — they say nothing real about any actual person or relationship, and must not be used to decide whether to enter, continue, or end a relationship or marriage.
If you are in distress or considering harming yourself, please contact a mental-health professional or a helpline immediately. In India, Tele-MANAS is available free, 24×7, on 14416.
Readings are AI-generated and may be inaccurate, inconsistent, or nonsensical. We do not guarantee their accuracy, and to the fullest extent permitted by law we accept no liability for any decision you make on the basis of them.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By using it you represent that you are. The Service is intended for users in India.
4. Your account
- You sign in with your mobile phone number, verified by a one-time passcode sent over WhatsApp. You must have the right to use that number.
- You are responsible for activity on your account and for keeping your phone and device secure.
- Do not share your OTP with anyone. We will never ask you for it.
- One account per person. Do not create accounts by automated means.
- We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these Terms, abuses the Service, or is used unlawfully.
5. Other people’s birth details
The compatibility feature lets you enter another person’s birth details. Only do this if you have that person’s permission. You are responsible for having the right to provide us with personal data about another person, and you must not use the Service to profile, harass, or make decisions about someone without their knowledge.
6. Subscriptions & payment
- The Service offers a free tier and paid tiers, which unlock higher usage limits and additional features. The current features and limits of each tier are shown in the app.
- All purchases are made through Google Play Billing. We do not collect or store your card or payment details.
- Subscriptions are auto-renewing — they renew at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- You manage and cancel your subscription in Google Play, not in ask tota. Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep access until the end of the period you paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.
- Refunds are handled by Google under Google Play’s refund policy and your rights under applicable law.
- Prices are in Indian Rupees and include applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. A price change will not affect a period you have already paid for, and we will give notice before it takes effect.
- Unused allowances do not carry over to the next period.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to: use the Service unlawfully or to harass, defraud, or harm anyone; present readings as factual predictions or professional advice to any third party; resell or commercially exploit the Service without our permission; access another user’s account, charts, or chats; scrape, reverse-engineer, or attempt to derive our prompts, models, or source code; circumvent usage limits, tiers, or paywalls, or use unofficial clients, emulators, or automated scripts; overload or probe the security of our infrastructure; or submit content that is illegal, obscene, defamatory, hateful, or infringing. We may rate-limit, suspend, or terminate access for any breach.
8. Intellectual property
- Ours: the Service, app, software, prompts, designs, branding, and content we supply belong to us or our licensors. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app for your own non-commercial use.
- Yours: your birth details and messages remain yours. You grant us the licence needed to process them to operate the Service, as described in the Privacy Policy — including sending them to our AI provider to generate your readings.
- Readings: you may use readings we generate for you personally and share them socially. We make no claim of exclusivity over AI-generated text and cannot guarantee a similar reading was not generated for someone else.
- Celebrity content: biographical facts about public figures are drawn from public sources; readings about them are speculative entertainment and are not endorsed by or affiliated with the person concerned.
9. Availability
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not promise it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or always available, and may change, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time. If we discontinue a paid feature you have paid for, we will provide a pro-rata refund or credit where the law requires it.
10. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We make no warranty whatsoever as to the accuracy, reliability, or predictive value of any reading, chart, score, or other astrological content (see §2).
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law: we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, opportunity, or relationships; we are not liable for any decision you make on the basis of a reading (§2); and our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, and (b) ₹500. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law — including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
12. Indemnity
You will indemnify us against claims, losses, and costs arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, or your submission of another person’s personal data without their permission (§5).
13. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete account, which erases your data as described in the Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Service. Sections 2, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 14 survive termination.
14. Governing law & disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts at Hyderabad, Telangana have exclusive jurisdiction, subject to any consumer-protection rights you have to bring proceedings elsewhere, and to your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020, which are not affected by these Terms.
15. Changes
We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will notify you in the app before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after that means you accept the updated Terms.
