You agree not to:
Your Content: You retain ownership of code, sessions, and content you share through /vibe. By sharing content publicly, you grant other users the right to view and fork it.
Our Content: The /vibe platform, branding, and documentation are owned by us. The MCP server is open source under MIT license.
Shared Sessions: When you share a session publicly, other users may fork and build upon it. Private sessions remain private.
Your use of /vibe is also governed by our Privacy Policy.
/vibe is provided "as is" without warranty. We strive for high availability but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service.
We may modify or discontinue features with reasonable notice. Your local data in ~/.vibe/ remains yours regardless of service status.
When we become aware of potential violations, we may take any of the following actions:

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. You may delete your account at any time by emailing delete@slashvibe.dev or using the account deletion feature in settings.
Upon termination, your right to use the service ceases immediately. Your local data in ~/.vibe/ remains on your machine. Server-side data will be deleted within 30 days per our Privacy Policy.
