1. What This Service Is

Congressional Debate Simulator is an AI-powered practice tool for congressional-style debate. Speeches, cross-examination questions, and analysis are generated by artificial intelligence (OpenAI and Google Gemini models) and web-sourced research.

2. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

The Service uses AI to generate debate content, arguments, and quoted evidence. AI-generated content may be inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, or misattributed. Quotes and sources presented by the AI should be independently verified before being relied upon for actual competition, academic work, or any purpose requiring factual accuracy. We do not guarantee the correctness of any AI output.

3. No Professional Advice

Nothing generated by the Service constitutes legal, legislative, journalistic, or professional advice of any kind.

4. Subscription & Billing

The Service is offered on a recurring monthly subscription billed through Stripe. Your subscription renews automatically each month until cancelled. You may cancel at any time through your account billing settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to generate content that is unlawful, harassing, or infringing, or to attempt to circumvent usage limits, security measures, or payment requirements.

6. Limitation of Liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CONGRESSIONAL DEBATE SIMULATOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, INCLUDING RELIANCE ON AI-GENERATED CONTENT. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID IN THE PRECEDING THREE MONTHS.

7. Intellectual Property & Third-Party Content

The Service may retrieve and reference excerpts from third-party news, government, and research sources for educational and research purposes. Uploaded bill text remains the property of its original source. AI-generated speech drafts are provided for your personal practice use.
