Acceptable Use Policy

Last updated: 7 November 2026

This policy explains what you may and may not do with HalusAI. It is part of our Terms of Service and applies to everyone who uses HalusAI.

Follow your school's or employer's rules on using AI tools. HalusAI is a writing tool. It helps you rewrite your own drafts, you choose what to keep, and you are responsible for what you submit or publish.

1. Allowed uses

You may use HalusAI to rewrite text you have the right to use, for example:

  • Your own drafts, including drafts you wrote with help from AI tools, where the rules that apply to you allow it.
  • Work writing, such as emails, reports, proposals, articles and posts.
  • Personal writing, such as letters, blog posts and notes.
  • Making a text clearer or plainer, and choosing between versions of each sentence.
  • Coursework, only where your school or teacher allows AI tools for that work.

2. Academic and workplace integrity

Schools, universities, publishers and employers set their own rules on AI-assisted writing, and those rules come first. If the rules for a piece of work do not allow AI tools, do not use HalusAI for it. If they ask you to say that you used AI, say so.

HalusAI does not promise any detector result. A detector score is an estimate, not proof of who wrote a text. Do not use HalusAI to submit work that breaks the rules that apply to you, or to hide AI use where you are required to disclose it.

3. Not allowed

You must not use HalusAI, or try to use it, for any of the following:

  • Breaking your institution's or employer's rules. Submitting work in breach of your school's, university's or employer's rules, such as handing in AI-assisted work where AI tools are not allowed.
  • Impersonation. Pretending to be another person or organisation, or writing in someone else's name to deceive.
  • Illegal, hateful or harmful content. Content that is illegal, harassment, threats, hate, content that promotes violence, sexual content involving minors, content that infringes someone else's copyright, privacy or other rights, or personal data you have no right to share.
  • Spam and deception at scale. Spam, fake reviews or testimonials, phishing, scams, or content produced in bulk to deceive people.
  • Attacks on the service. Trying to extract our prompts, models or settings; trying to manipulate the system with crafted texts; probing or getting around our guardrails, limits or security; overloading HalusAI; or testing its security without our written permission.
  • Automated access and scraping. Using bots, scripts or other automated means to use HalusAI, or to collect its pages, samples or results.
  • Reselling or sharing accounts. Sharing an account, its password or the codes we email you, selling or renting access to an account, or running HalusAI for other people as a service through your account.

4. Guardrails

HalusAI has automatic guardrails. They refuse texts that try to manipulate the system, for example texts written to make the model ignore its instructions or reveal how it works. A refused text is not rewritten. Sending refused texts again and again can lead to a pause or suspension.

5. Enforcement

If we believe an account breaks this policy, we may, depending on how serious the breach is:

  • refuse a text;
  • warn you;
  • pause the account for a while; or
  • suspend or close the account.

We may act without a warning when a breach is serious or the law requires it. A chargeback also pauses the account while it is open.

If you think we made a mistake, email support@halus.app from your account's email address and we will look at it again.

6. Reporting and questions

To report misuse of HalusAI or a security problem, or to ask whether a use is allowed, email support@halus.app. Never send card details.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. The date at the top of this page shows the current version. If a change is material, we will tell you by email or on the site before it takes effect, as the Terms of Service explain.
