Terms of Service
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Trust Onion (the "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create an account. Children under 18 may use the Services under parental supervision as part of a family group.
3. Account Registration
You may need to create an account to access certain features. You agree to provide accurate information and to maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials.
4. Description of Services
Trust Onion is a family safety application that provides layered identity verification tools:
Codewords: Time-based verification phrases generated locally on each device, shared within a family or friend group. Codewords rotate on a schedule and work offline with no server dependency.
Proofies: Biometric-verified selfies with the current codeword overlaid, cryptographically signed. Recipients can verify the signature matches the sender's identity.
Family Groups: Private verification circles where members exchange public keys to establish a cryptographic trust network.
Codewords are calculated locally on your device. They are never transmitted to or stored on our servers. Alibi Ledger, LLC cannot access your codewords.
5. Use of Services
You agree to use the Services only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. You may not interfere with the operation or security of the Services, access data not intended for you, reverse engineer, copy, or resell the Services without written permission, or use the Services to harass, stalk, intimidate, or surveil others.
6. Family Groups and Proofies
Family groups are private verification circles. By joining a group, you consent to share your verification status with other group members. Group administrators can invite or remove members. You can leave any group at any time.
When you create a Proofie, you consent to sharing your selfie, current codeword, and optional location data with the intended recipient. Proofies are designed for private, person-to-person verification. You may not use Proofies for surveillance, harassment, or any purpose other than voluntary identity verification.
7. Intellectual Property
All content, trademarks, software, and technology are the property of Alibi Ledger, LLC or its licensors. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to access and use the Services.
8. User Content
You retain ownership of content you submit but grant Alibi Ledger, LLC a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, host, and display it solely to operate the Services.
9. User Data and Privacy
Your codeword and verification data is under your control as described in Section 4. For more details, refer to our Privacy Policy.
10. Disclaimers
The Services are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. While we design our tools to help prevent impersonation scams, we cannot guarantee that all scams will be prevented. Trust Onion is a verification aid, not a security guarantee.
