Terms of Use
Last updated: July 2026
By using Maharsho Chat, you agree to these terms. They're kept short and plain on purpose — read them, they only take a minute.
Age requirement
You must be at least 18 years old to use this service. This app has no age verification, no content moderation, and no way for anyone to intervene in a conversation while it's happening — those are direct consequences of having no accounts and no stored data. That combination makes it inappropriate for minors, and we don't knowingly allow minors to use it.
What this service is
A two-person, real-time chat tool with no accounts, no message history, and no persistence. When both participants leave a room, it and everything sent in it is permanently and irrecoverably deleted. There is no way for us to retrieve a conversation after the fact — not for you, not for anyone, not under any circumstance, because it no longer exists anywhere.
Acceptable use
Don't use this service to:
- Harass, threaten, or abuse another person
- Share illegal content of any kind
- Impersonate someone else with intent to deceive or harm
- Attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the service or its infrastructure
- Use the service if you are under 18
Because there are no accounts and no persistent logs of message content, we have no practical mechanism to enforce this beyond what's built into the app itself (rate limiting, room capacity limits). You are responsible for your own conduct and for complying with the law in your jurisdiction.
No warranty
This service is provided "as is," free of charge, without warranty of any kind. We don't guarantee uptime, message delivery, or that the service will be available at any particular time. It's a small, independently-run tool, not a commercial product with a service-level agreement.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any damages arising from your use of this service, including but not limited to lost messages, service interruptions, or the conduct of other users. You use this service at your own discretion and risk.
No account, no recovery
There is no password reset, no message recovery, and no support ticket that can bring back a conversation after a room has ended. This is a deliberate design choice, not a missing feature — see our Privacy Policy for why.
Changes to these terms
If these terms change, the "last updated" date above will change with them. Continued use of the service after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Contact
This is a small, independently-run project without a dedicated support channel. If you have concerns about how the service is being used, the most effective step is simply to stop using it and not share the room code or link further.
