Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Orion and its related services, operated by Zinley ("Zinley," "we," "us," or "our"). Please read these Terms carefully before using our services.

By using Orion, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not use our services.

Orion is an interconnected personal representative built by the Zinley team. It handles your calls, files, research, and everyday tasks autonomously. It works across desktop, mobile, command line, and your favorite messaging apps -- with persistent memory that learns how you work and gets better over time.

These Terms apply to all individual Orion plans (including Free, Plus, Pro, Max, and any future individual tiers). If you are using Orion Enterprise or any team-based plan, the Commercial Terms of Service apply instead.

For questions about these Terms, contact us at legal@meetorion.app.

Agreement to Terms

By using Orion, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. This constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and Zinley.

If you are using Orion on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and your agreement will be treated as the agreement of the organization.

You must be at least 18 years old (or the minimum legal age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use Orion. By creating an account, you represent that you meet this age requirement.

Service Description

Orion is an interconnected personal agent that performs tasks autonomously on your behalf. The service includes the following capabilities:

Core Features

• Autonomous task completion -- Orion completes tasks from start to finish, verifies its own work, and delivers results when done
• Phone calls on your behalf -- books appointments, makes reservations, and handles calls with third parties
• Local file access -- opens, edits, and organizes files directly on your device
• Persistent memory -- learns your preferences and maintains context across sessions
• Multi-platform access -- desktop (macOS, Windows, Linux), mobile (iOS, Android), CLI, and messaging apps (Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Slack, iMessage)
• Third-party integrations -- connects with Google Suite, Slack, Discord, LinkedIn, BigQuery, Jira, and more
• Always-on capability -- can run on servers to complete tasks while you are away

AI Output Accuracy

AI-generated outputs may not always be accurate, complete, or up to date. You are responsible for independently verifying any information before relying on it, especially for important decisions. Orion's AI features are tools to assist you -- not a replacement for your own judgment.

Service Availability

We strive to maintain reliable service, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability. Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or unforeseen issues. We will minimize interruptions and provide advance notice when possible.

Service Modifications

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of Orion at any time, with or without notice. We may also impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts of the service without notice or liability.

Commercial Use

You may use Orion for commercial purposes subject to your subscription plan limitations. However, you may not resell, redistribute, or create derivative services based on Orion without our written permission.

Your Devices and Platforms

Orion operates on your devices and connects through your messaging platforms. This requires the following responsibilities on your part:

Device and Platform Access

• You are responsible for the devices and accounts you connect to Orion
• Only use Orion on devices and platforms that you own or have authorization to use
• Keep your connected device and platform list current
• Ensure devices meet minimum security and compatibility requirements

Device Security

• Maintain appropriate security measures on all connected devices
• Keep device operating systems and Orion software updated
• Use device-level security features like encryption and access controls
• Report any suspected security breaches immediately

File Access and Permissions

Orion can access and modify real files on your device. You control which folders Orion can access through directory guardrails -- everything else is off-limits. Orion can make real changes to permitted files. You are responsible for granting appropriate permissions and ensuring all actions comply with applicable laws.

Phone Calls

When Orion makes calls on your behalf, you are responsible for ensuring those calls comply with applicable telecommunications laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. Orion will identify itself as an interconnected personal representative when required by law.

Privacy and Data Protection

Our full Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. The following summarizes key data practices:

Data Processing

• We process your data to provide Orion's services
• File access happens locally on your device; AI processing goes through our secure servers
• We do not build AI models. We use third-party models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) to power Orion
• Your data is never used to train any AI model -- not ours, not anyone else's
• You control your data and can export or delete it at any time

What We Log and Store

We log errors, performance metrics, and operational data to keep Orion running and improve the system. Your conversation history is retained so Orion can maintain context across sessions -- but it is never used for model training and is not viewable by any Zinley team member. When you delete a conversation, it is permanently and immediately deleted. File contents and call audio are not stored on our servers. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Data Security

We implement security measures including TLS encryption for all data in transit, AES-256 encryption for data at rest, secure key management, and regular security assessments to protect your information. See our Security page for full details.
