Terms of Service
Last updated: June 22, 2022​
​
Please read these Terms of Use (“Terms”) carefully. By accessing or using the Psychedelic Diaries (PD) websites, Psilocybin Psoirée (PP) websites, mobile applications, or other products, services, or websites of Textsavvyapp, Inc. and our affiliates (“Psychedelic Diaries”, “we”, “our” or “us”), or the PD/PP services, features, or functionality jointly offered with other companies through our website, our mobile application, or our API (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms affect your legal rights and obligations, so if you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.
In the event you use a service, feature, or functionality that is operated by a third party and made available through our Services (including Services we jointly offer with the third party), each party’s terms will govern as to the respective party’s relationship with you. In these instances, we will take steps to make the third party’s terms available to you before you begin to use the service, feature, or functionality.
​
Services
These Terms form a legal contract and will read like a proper legal contract but much of this document is designed to help you understand our products and how to use them. These Terms let us provide and continue to improve our Services, while at the same time preventing users from misusing or relying too heavily on the product. Use the Services in the manner which it’s meant to be used.
​
These Services should not, under any circumstances, be used in lieu of seeing a mental health professional, nor should they be viewed as a diagnosis, prescription, or recommendation. Our tools do not diagnose or treat health conditions and should be used alongside the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional for help interpreting and using the Services.
The Services are not for emergency purposes. If you believe you have a medical emergency then call 911 or navigate to a nearby emergency room hospital. If you are considering or are in the process of committing suicide, call 911.
The Services are not psychiatrists, psychologists, or therapists, and should not be considered medical, psychological, legal, or other professional advice. The Services are, of course, not even human and are provided for informational purposes only. In fact, we hope that your use of these Services will be a step towards initiating one or many visits with a healthcare provider. We hope that the Services inspire a healthy regard for your own mental health and encourage further exploration into your own well-being and self-improvement, especially alongside the help of a healthcare provider. There are legal opportunities to explore psychedelics in various jurisdictions of the world and the Services may promote harm-reduction related to psychedelic compounds. However, we do not encourage, endorse, or promote any illegal activities or reckless drug use, and bear no responsibility for anyone’s decision to do so. You are solely responsible for your decisions.
​
The Services may observe and analyze your well-being but the Services do not include medical care or mental health services. The Services may provide information but that information is not reviewed by a healthcare provider and should not be interpreted as a diagnosis. The Services should be viewed as a tool to help you explore your own self-help program. Use of the Services does not create a doctor/patient relationship and the Services should not be viewed as medical advice, a medical opinion, or treatment. You should not use these Services to ignore, delay, or replace advice or guidance from a mental health professional or doctor. Speak with a medical professional if you seek a diagnosis or treatment plan.

Our Audience
Psychedelic Diaries is intended for people who are at least 18 years old that are NOT suffering from a severe mental health disorder (e.g. schizophrenia or acute psychosis). Persons under the age of 18 or those suffering from a severe mental health disorder are prohibited from using the Services. For certain features or functionality offered by us or others through the Services, users must be at least 18 years old. Those Services may be subject to separate terms from us or third parties that contain these further age requirements. If you are under 18 and use those Services, you may be violating the third party’s governing terms, which we deem a violation of these Terms as well.

The Services should not be used in lieu of professional help, especially in the case of mental health issues including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, addiction or suicidal thoughts. The feedback you receive from the Services is generated by a computer algorithm and thus may lack insights you may receive from a healthcare provider.

​
Disputes
ARBITRATION NOTICE: EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DISPUTES DESCRIBED IN THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE BELOW, YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND WE WILL BE RESOLVED BY MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
​
1) Indemnification
By agreeing to these Terms you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us harmless, including our managing members, shareholders, employees, affiliates, licensors, partners and suppliers (the “Company Parties”) from and against any and all complaints, charges, claims, damages, losses, costs, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) due to, arising out of, or relating in any way to (a) your access to or use of the Services; (b) any User Content you post, upload, use, distribute, store, or otherwise transmit through the Services; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation of the rights of another, including without limitation, any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, privacy, or proprietary right; or (e) your violation of any statutes, codes, ordinances, laws, rules, regulations, including without limitation, all regulatory, administrative, and legislative authorities.​

If, notwithstanding these Terms, we are found liable to you for any damage or loss that arises out of or is in any way connected with your use of the Services or any content, our liability shall in no event exceed $1.00. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations of liability, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.​
​
3) Arbitration Agreement; Class Waiver; Waiver of Trial by Jury.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US, AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.​
​
a. Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by us that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms set forth below (the “Arbitration Agreement”), except that you and Company Parties are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable and other relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Company Parties, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.
​
b. Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute-resolution provision. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of this arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules conflict with the Terms (“Arbitration Rules”). The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than ten thousand U.S. dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is ten thousand U.S. dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
​
c. Additional Rules for Non-appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance arbitration is elected as provided above, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online, and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties
​
d. Authority of the Arbitrator. The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Company Parties, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the Arbitration Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
​
e. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND COMPANY PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and us in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND COMPANY PARTIES WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
​
f. Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. Notwithstanding any other provision in these Terms, in the event that this subparagraph is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration and instead all claims and disputes shall be resolved in a court located in Los Angeles County, California.
​
g. Confidentiality. No part of the procedures shall be open to the public or the media. All evidence discovered or submitted at the hearing is confidential and may not be disclosed, except by written agreement of the parties, pursuant to court order or unless required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be prevented from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Arbitration Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
​​
h. Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.
​
i. Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Company Parties may bring an individual action in small claims court.
​
j. Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in Los Angeles County, California, for such purpose.
​
k. Survival. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with us.
​
4) Forum and Venue
A lawsuit, if any, by you or us against the other will occur in state or federal court in Los Angeles County, California. You and Company Parties agree that the jurisdiction and venue of these courts is exclusive.​
​
Applicable Law
Any dispute between you and us will be governed by these Terms and the laws of the State of California and applicable United States law, without giving effect to any conflict-of-laws principles that may provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction.​
​
Severability
If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
​
Complete Agreement
​These Terms supersede all prior understandings regarding the same and represent the complete agreement between you and us. These Terms do not create or confer any third-party beneficiary rights. We may change or modify these Terms at any time and in our sole discretion. If we make changes to these Terms, we will provide notice of such changes, such as by sending a notification, posting a notice on the Services, or updating the “Last Updated” date above. Your continued use of the Services will confirm your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to frequently review the Terms to ensure you understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Services. If you do not agree to the amended Terms, you must stop using the Services.
