Terms of use for Memory by Kiawak

§ 1 Scope

(1) These terms apply to the use of Memory at memory.kiawak.com. The provider is Lukas Köppl, Kiawak, Kolpingstraße 24, 84030 Ergolding, Germany, phone +49 151 47854616, e-mail contact@kiawak.com (“Kiawak”).

(2) Memory is aimed at consumers (§ 13 BGB) and entrepreneurs (§ 14 BGB). Deviating terms of the user do not apply.

§ 2 Services

(1) Memory is an online store for linked notes (a “memory”) that the user edits in the browser and connects to AI tools: via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with sign-in (OAuth) or API key and via a REST interface. Connected tools can search and read notes and, if the user allows it, write them. This includes links, graph view, search, earlier versions, history, trash, import and export.

(2) Limits per account during the launch phase: 5,000 notes, 25 MB of text, 100 KB per note, 5,000 requests by AI tools a day, 20 connections. Before the e-mail address is confirmed: 100 notes and no connections.

(3) The demo contains invented example data; nothing is stored there.

(4) Kiawak may develop Memory further as long as its core (storing notes, connecting, exporting) remains.

§ 3 AI tools of other providers

(1) The AI tools the user connects (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT or own agents) are offers of other providers. Their terms apply; the user concludes the necessary contracts himself. Kiawak has no influence on what these tools read, write or answer.

(2) What an AI writes into the memory may be wrong, incomplete or outdated. The user checks important content himself; every change is shown in the history with the name of the connection and can be undone with earlier versions.

(3) The user grants rights deliberately: connections can be read-only or limited to a folder. Whoever passes on an API key gives access to the memory; the user keeps keys secret and deletes a connection at once if he suspects misuse.

§ 4 Account

(1) An account is needed for use. The details must be correct; an account is not transferable. Connections with AI tools are available once the e-mail address is confirmed.

(2) The password must be kept secret. If there is a suspicion that third parties know it, the user changes it without delay.

(3) The user can delete his account at any time; all notes and connections are deleted with it.

§ 5 Content and duties of the user

(1) The user is responsible for his content, including content written by the AI tools he connects. He stores no unlawful content, no passwords, access or payment data and details about other people only as far as he is entitled to.

(2) He grants Kiawak only the rights needed to store the content, show it to him and transmit it to the tools he connects.

(3) The user backs up important data himself using the export functions.

(4) The user does not burden Memory abusively (e.g. by mass requests beyond the limits). Kiawak may temporarily block a connection or access if misuse is imminent or security is at risk and informs the user.

§ 6 Free use and launch phase

(1) Memory is free during the launch phase. There is no claim to certain functions or constant availability.

(2) Before Kiawak introduces paid plans or restricts or ends free use, Kiawak announces it by e-mail at least four weeks in advance. Paid services only arise if the user expressly books them; stored notes remain exportable.

§ 7 Availability

Kiawak operates Memory with usual care; interruptions for maintenance or faults cannot be ruled out. Whether an AI tool can use the memory also depends on that tool.

§ 8 Liability

(1) Kiawak is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the Product Liability Act and to the extent of a guarantee given.

(2) Otherwise, for free use Kiawak is liable only for intent and gross negligence (§ 521 BGB by analogy).

(3) Kiawak is not liable for content written by connected AI tools nor for decisions the user or a tool makes on the basis of stored content, except in the cases of paragraph 1.

§ 9 Changes to these terms

Kiawak may change these terms for the future if there is an objective reason (e.g. new functions, changed laws) and announces changes by e-mail at least six weeks in advance. Changes to the user's disadvantage apply only with his consent; if he does not agree, he can delete the account.

§ 10 Data protection

The privacy policy applies.

§ 11 Final provisions

(1) German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers this choice of law applies only insofar as they are not deprived of the protection of mandatory provisions of the state of their habitual residence.

(2) Place of jurisdiction for merchants, legal entities under public law and special funds under public law is Landshut, Germany.

(3) Kiawak is neither willing nor obliged to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

(4) If a provision is invalid, the remaining provisions stay valid.
