Solo Web Beta Terms and conditions
Part B · Terms: 1–4 the beta · 5–7 using Solo · 8–14 the rest
Part A · About Solo web
What Solo web is
- Solo watches only you, through your own camera and microphone, and tells you how you're coming across while you talk.
- It runs in this browser. Your video and audio never leave it.
- It works next to Zoom, Teams or Google Meet. A small strip floats over your call.
Your free sessions
- Three free sessions per person, each of up to 40 minutes. We confirm your email with a 6-digit code so each person gets three.
- A session counts as one of your free sessions once it passes 1 minute. If it ends sooner, it isn't counted.
- Every session stops at 40 minutes. Solo tells you at 5 minutes and at 1 minute left, then opens your review.
- A session can't be paused or started again.
- Beta testers have unlimited sessions. They also have a testing switch that lifts the 40-minute limit for stability tests.
What stays on your computer
- Solo opens your camera and microphone only during a session.
- Everything it works out about how you come across is computed here, in this tab.
- The recording for your review is kept in this tab's memory. It is gone when you leave the review. Your marks go with it.
- Solo keeps a few small entries in this browser's storage (your sign-in, your choice about usage counts, and the dates of the last counted opens). It sets no cookies. The privacy notice lists each entry (section 3).
What leaves your browser
- Your email check.
- Your address is sent to us when you ask for the code and again when you enter it, so we can check it. The code is emailed by Resend, a US email service. It works for 10 minutes and for 5 tries, and we send at most 3 an hour to one address. Resend keeps a copy of each email it sends, including your address, for 30 days in the United States, and then deletes it. We cannot delete Resend's copy sooner (section 12).
- We keep a one-way fingerprint of the address, how many of its free sessions have been used, and which version of these terms you agreed to and when. We don't keep the address itself.
- We keep the fingerprint until 30 days after the web beta ends. You can have it deleted sooner (section 12).
- We never email you anything except the code.
- Anonymous usage counts.
- What is sent: that Solo opened, and that a session started or ended, with its length in bands (0–5, 5–15, 15–30, 30–40 minutes) and whether it reached the limit. Also camera on or off, your browser and system type, and three yes/no flags: first time today, this month, ever.
- Never sent: a name, an email, an identifier, or anything Solo heard or saw.
- Counts are on by default. Switch them off at any time in Solo's Settings. If your browser sends Global Privacy Control, they stay off.
Where it works
- Google Chrome on a Windows or Mac computer.
- At this time, Solo web is not offered in the European Union, the EEA, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, or in the states of Illinois, Texas or Washington.
Part B · Terms
1. Who we are
Solo web is provided by Oded Biran, United States ("we", "us"). UnderCurrent is not yet incorporated; these terms will name the company once it is. Contact: privacy@undercur.com.
2. Who can use it
You must be 18 or older. You may use Solo web only where it is offered (A5). Don't use a VPN or similar tool to reach it from a place where it isn't offered.
3. A beta
Solo web is an early version. It may change, stop working or end at any time, without notice. Features may be added or removed.
4. Your free sessions and the limits
The limits are three free sessions per person and 40 minutes per session. A session counts as one of them once it passes 1 minute. Don't use more than one email address to get more sessions, and don't change or automate the app to get around a limit. Tester codes are personal: don't share them. We can withdraw a code at any time.
5. Coaching, not advice
Solo describes observable behaviour (your airtime, pace, pitch, gaze, expressiveness and questions) and how it may come across. It is not medical, psychological, legal or professional advice. It does not assess anyone else. What you do with it is your decision.
6. Other people on your calls
Solo records you, not your call. It uses only your camera and microphone and receives nothing from your meeting app. If your speakers play the call aloud, your microphone may also pick up other people's voices; that sound stays in this tab's memory with your recording and is discarded when you leave the review. Use headphones to keep other voices out. If other people may be heard, you are responsible for telling them that Solo is running and for getting their consent where the law requires it.
7. Acceptable use
Don't misuse Solo web. That means: no attacking or overloading the service, no automated access to the sign-in or counting addresses, no reverse-engineering to get around the limits, and nothing unlawful.
8. Privacy
Our privacy notice explains what we process and why. Part A above summarises it for Solo web.
9. Ownership
The software belongs to us. We give you a personal, revocable permission to use Solo web during the beta. If you send us feedback, we may use it to improve Solo.
10. No warranty
SOLO WEB IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. We do not promise that what Solo shows you about how you come across is accurate or right for any purpose. Some places do not allow some of these exclusions; where that is so, they apply only as far as the law allows.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, SOLO WEB. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ABOUT SOLO WEB IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF USD 100 AND WHAT YOU PAID US FOR IT (DURING THE BETA, NOTHING). Nothing in these terms limits a liability that the law does not allow to be limited.
12. Ending
You can stop using Solo web at any time. We may suspend or end your access, including if these terms are broken. To have your email fingerprint deleted, write to privacy@undercur.com from that address and we will delete it. That deletes everything we hold about that address: the fingerprint, whether its free session was used, and the terms you agreed to. Cloudflare, which hosts our database, keeps a restore history of the whole database for 7 days, so a deleted record can still exist in that history for up to 7 days. Resend, which sent your code, keeps its copy of that email for 30 days and then deletes it on its own schedule; we cannot delete it sooner.
13. Changes to these terms
You agree to these terms by ticking the two boxes on the email screen. If we change them, you'll be signed out and asked to tick the boxes again for the new version before your next session.
14. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the law of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and any dispute about them or about Solo web will be brought in the state or federal courts located in the State of New York. Rights you have under the law of the place where you live that a contract cannot take away are not affected.
If UnderCurrent is incorporated, these terms pass to the company that succeeds us in running Solo web, and "we" and "us" then mean that company. We will tell you by changing section 1 and the version of these terms.
