1. Acceptance

By creating an account or using DeepShield, you enter into a binding contract with us under the Indian Contract Act, 1872 and agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. The service

DeepShield analyses images, audio, video, and text to estimate the likelihood of AI-generation, deepfaking, or social-engineering risk. Results are probabilistic — they are not legal evidence and must be combined with human judgement.

3. Intermediary status (IT Act §2(1)(w) & §79)

DeepShield acts as an intermediary within the meaning of Section 2(1)(w) of the Information Technology Act, 2000. We claim safe-harbour protection under Section 79 of the IT Act, subject to observance of due diligence requirements under the IT Rules, 2021. We do not initiate, select the receiver of, or modify the content of transmissions made by users.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to upload, transmit, host, publish or share content that:

  • You do not have the right to analyse or distribute.
  • Is unlawful under any Indian law, including content prohibited by Rule 3(1)(b) of the IT Rules, 2021 (obscene, paedophilic, defamatory, harmful to a child, infringing, impersonating, threatening the unity, integrity, defence, security or sovereignty of India, etc.).
  • Constitutes an offence under the IT Act including §66 (computer-related offences), §66C (identity theft), §66D (cheating by personation using a computer resource), §66E (violation of privacy), §67 / §67A / §67B (obscene, sexually explicit material and child sexual abuse material), or any provision of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
  • Is non-consensual intimate imagery, used to harass, dox, or impersonate any person.
  • Bypasses or attempts to bypass rate limits, credit accounting, RLS, authentication, or security controls; or scrapes, reverse-engineers, or resells the service.

Report violations or unlawful content to our Grievance Officer at cyber@deepx27.fun.

5. Takedown & grievance redressal (IT Rules 2021 Rule 3(2)(a))

On receipt of a complaint about content or service conduct, our Grievance Officer will acknowledge within 24 hours and dispose of the complaint within 15 days. Information related to requests received from a Government agency or court of competent jurisdiction will be processed in accordance with applicable Indian law.

6. Credits and billing

Scans consume credits at the per-mode rate displayed in the Scanner. Credits are issued via redemption codes or admin top-ups. All prices, where shown, are in Indian Rupees (₹) and are exclusive of applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) unless stated otherwise. Credits are non-refundable, have no cash value, and expire on account closure. Subject to your statutory rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, no refunds are provided once credits have been issued. For billing questions, email support@deepx27.fun.

7. Data and retention

All scans are permanently deleted 7 days after creation. See the Privacy Policy for the full DPDP Act, 2023 notice. You are responsible for downloading any reports you need to keep.

8. Disclaimers

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the maximum extent permitted by Indian law. Detection scores are estimates and may produce false positives or false negatives. Do not rely on DeepShield as the sole basis for legal, financial, or safety decisions.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Indian law, our total aggregate liability for any claim arising from your use of the service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, including loss of profits, goodwill, or data. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 or other mandatory provisions of Indian law.

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, applicable Indian law, or directions issued by a competent authority. You may stop using the service at any time and request account deletion via support@deepx27.fun.

11. Governing law & dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India. The parties shall first attempt good-faith negotiation, failing which the dispute shall be referred to mediation under the Mediation Act, 2023. Subject to the foregoing, the courts at Bengaluru, Karnataka shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

12. Changes

We may update these Terms. Continued use of the service after the "Last updated" date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
