Transmogrifier
Cardboard Intelligence, Inc.
Effective Date: April 20, 2026 | Last Updated: April 20, 2026
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") form a binding agreement between you ("you" or "User") and Cardboard Intelligence, Inc., a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business at 1111 6th Ave, Ste 550 PMB 703484, San Diego, CA 92101 ("Cardboard," "we," "our," or "us"), governing your access to and use of the Transmogrifier application, associated software, websites, APIs, and services (collectively, the "Service").
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, ACCESSING, OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND BY OUR PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE.
Section 16 contains a binding arbitration clause and class action waiver that affect your legal rights. Please review carefully.
1. The Service
1.1 Description. Transmogrifier is an AI-powered personal "chief of staff" and operator application that assists you in managing information and tasks across your personal digital ecosystem. The Service may, with your authorization, access and interact with your location data, files, devices, email accounts, calendars, and other personal data sources ("User Content").
1.2 Local-First Architecture. The Service is designed on a local-first, user-owned data model. Your User Content is intended to remain within your own device ecosystem, including a user-owned virtual machine (the "User VM") that functions as an always-on computing environment on your behalf. Cardboard does not intend to copy, retain, or process your User Content on Cardboard-controlled servers except as strictly necessary to deliver the Service and as described in our Privacy Policy.
1.3 Pattern Learning Data. The Service generates abstracted, de-identified, and aggregated signals derived from usage behavior ("Pattern Learning Data") that are transmitted to and shared across Cardboard's network to improve the Service. Pattern Learning Data is engineered to exclude personally identifiable information, personal location details, and the contents of your files, messages, or communications. See our Privacy Policy for details.
1.4 AI-Generated Output. The Service uses artificial intelligence and machine learning, including large language models and other probabilistic systems. Output generated by the Service ("AI Output") may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, or inappropriate for your specific situation. You are solely responsible for reviewing AI Output before relying on it, and for any actions you or the Service takes at your direction based on AI Output.
1.5 Third-Party Integrations. The Service connects to third-party platforms and services (e.g., email providers, calendar services, cloud storage, device operating systems, and mobile platforms) ("Third-Party Services"). Your use of Third-Party Services is governed by the terms of those services, and Cardboard is not responsible for their availability, accuracy, or content.
2. Eligibility and Accounts
2.1 Age Requirement. You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction (whichever is greater), to use the Service. The Service is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. In the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, the Service is not intended for individuals under 16.
2.2 Account Registration. You may be required to create an account. You agree to (a) provide accurate and current information, (b) maintain the security of your credentials, (c) promptly notify us of any unauthorized use, and (d) accept responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account.
2.3 Authority to Grant Access. By connecting Third-Party Services or authorizing the Service to access data on your devices, you represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights, consents, and authority to grant such access, including the consent of any third parties whose data may be incidentally accessed (such as email correspondents).
3. Licenses and Intellectual Property
3.1 Grant to You. Subject to these Terms, Cardboard grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install, and use the Service on devices you own or control for your personal, non-commercial use (or internal business use if you have an applicable commercial plan).
3.2 Cardboard IP. The Service, including all software, models, designs, trademarks, and documentation, is owned by Cardboard or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the license granted in Section 3.1, no rights are granted to you.
3.3 Your Content. You retain all rights in your User Content. You grant Cardboard a limited, worldwide, royalty-free license to access, process, transmit, display, and create derivative works of your User Content solely to the extent necessary to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Service for you. This license terminates when your User Content is deleted or your account is closed, except for (a) de-identified Pattern Learning Data that cannot reasonably be re-associated with you, and (b) retention as required by law.
3.4 Feedback. If you submit suggestions, ideas, or feedback, you grant Cardboard a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use such feedback without obligation to you.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to:
• Use the Service in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right;
• Use the Service to access, intercept, monitor, or exfiltrate data belonging to another person without their lawful consent;
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code or underlying models of the Service, except as permitted by applicable law;

5. Mobile Platform and Third-Party Terms
