What changed in v2026.11.12
A short summary of what is new in this version, compared with v2026.10.09. Nothing here asks you to do anything: you do not need to accept these Terms again, and using Dice Party after November 12, 2026 means you accept them.
- Standalone. These Terms stand on their own. Fun Side LLC is the company behind Dice Party, and no other terms override them.
- Content rules match our AI partners. Acceptable Use now follows the usage policies of the AI partners that write your notes.
- Enforcement. A new section says what we may do when a session breaks the rules: decline to write notes, remove them, or suspend access.
- Recording consent. Whoever starts a recording confirms everyone at the table agreed to it and is old enough.
- AI-generated notes. We say plainly that notes and recaps are written by AI and can contain mistakes.
- Children’s privacy. Dice Party is for ages 13 and up, and the Privacy Policy now covers COPPA.
- Run and keep improving, never model training. You license your content to us to run and keep improving Dice Party. We never use your recordings, transcripts, or campaign content to train AI models, and we never sell or license your content to others.
- Feedback. Your corrections and other feedback can help improve Dice Party for everyone. They are never used to train models.
- Aggregated statistics. We may publish de-identified, aggregated statistics. We never show anyone metrics about an individual player.
- Shared campaigns. What you add to a campaign is visible to its members and stays with the campaign if you leave. The GM has the final say on campaign edits.
- Recording announcement. We say plainly that Dice Party announces when a session is being recorded.
- Disclaimer, indemnity, and closing clauses. New plain-spoken sections on “as is” service, covering Fun Side LLC for claims your content or conduct causes, experimental features, transferring these Terms, and the usual closing terms.
- Disputes. Talk to us first, small claims court is always open to either side, and there is no arbitration and no class-action waiver.
- Past versions. Every version is dated and kept in full, so you can read what applied when.
Introduction
These Terms take effect on November 12, 2026. Until then, the version in force is the one dated October 9, 2026.
Dice Party is a Fun Side LLC product (dba Dice Party). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Dice Party Discord bot, web dashboards, APIs, and related services (“Services”). By using Dice Party you agree to these Terms and to do right by the rest of the community. If anything is unclear please reach out.
Eligibility
You must be at least 13, and meet Discord’s minimum age where you live, to use Dice Party. You must be 18 or older, or have a parent or guardian’s permission, to buy credits.
Who we are
Fun Side LLC is the company behind Dice Party (dba Dice Party). When these Terms say “we,” “our,” or “us,” that means Fun Side LLC.
Your Privacy Matters
We take privacy seriously. Our Privacy page describes how Dice Party handles your data. We collect only the data needed to run and keep improving the service — session recordings, transcripts, billing contacts, and Discord OAuth details — and we never sell your data. We rely on trusted partners like AssemblyAI, Anthropic, DigitalOcean, Stripe, and Discord to provide features. See the Privacy Policy for specifics.
Accounts & Security
- Discord login. Dice Party currently uses Discord OAuth. Keep your Discord credentials private and notify us of suspicious activity.
- Authorized users only. Only server owners or people with permission in a Discord guild should invite the bot. You are responsible for how Dice Party is used on your server.
- Recording consent. The person who starts a recording confirms that everyone being recorded is at least 13 (and meets Discord’s minimum age where they live) and has agreed to be recorded.
- Recording announcement. When Dice Party starts recording, and whenever someone joins a recorded channel, it announces that the session is being recorded.
- Lawful and respectful use. Do not use the Services to violate intellectual property laws, harass other users, or record people without their consent. You are responsible for following local recording/consent laws.
Payments, Credits & Refunds
Dice Party sells prepaid credits for recorded game time, billed at $2/hr — only while you record, in US Dollars. Credits are prepaid; there is no subscription. We may also offer complimentary usage, promotional credits, or Discord roles at our discretion; these do not create a long-term contract, and we reserve the right to modify pricing as the product evolves.
Sessions are metered against a prepaid credit balance. Credits are denominated in dollars and metered at the current rate; any hours or sessions figure shown next to your balance is an estimate at current rates, never a guarantee of minutes. Payments are processed through Link, part of Stripe’s Managed Payments, which acts as merchant of record for card transactions and handles any applicable sales tax, VAT, or GST.
- Purchased credits. Purchases are sold through Link, our merchant of record (part of Stripe’s Managed Payments) — Link’s buyer terms, receipts, taxes, and refund and dispute process apply to your purchase. Purchased credits are refundable while unused: reach out through Stripe/Link support, or the Dice Party Support server on Discord, and we will make it right. Purchased credits are good for one year from the date of purchase; any part of a purchase still unused after that year expires. Credits purchased before September 25, 2026 do not expire.
- Temp (promotional) credits. Bonus credits we grant — purchase matches, survey rewards — are a bonus on top of what you paid: they are non-refundable and expire on their stated date.
- Spend order. The credit that expires soonest is used first, whether it is a temp credit or a purchase — so temp credits are normally used before purchased credits. Credit with no expiry date is used last.
Third-Party Services
To run Dice Party we integrate with:
- Discord for authentication, slash commands, and message delivery.
- DigitalOcean for storage and hosting (Spaces, droplets, and managed Postgres).
- AssemblyAI for audio transcription (Deepgram for some older recordings).
- AI partners like Anthropic for AI-generated notes, campaign notes, and memory.
- Voyage AI for text embeddings that power recall and search.
- Stripe for payments.
- Sentry for error monitoring.
These partners process limited data necessary to deliver the Services. Each third party has its own terms and privacy policies, and their behavior is outside our direct control.
Our task queues (Celery/Valkey/Redis) and Postgres database are our own infrastructure running on the DigitalOcean hosting above, not separate third parties.
Notes, recaps, and campaign memory are generated by AI and can contain mistakes. Check anything that matters before you rely on it.
Intellectual Property
Fun Side LLC owns the Dice Party software, designs, documentation, and branding. You own your content: the campaign material and recordings generated while using the Services. We do not claim copyright in your stories.
By using Dice Party you give us a limited license to use your content to run and keep improving Dice Party: transcription, AI summarization, organizing, search, storage, delivery back to Discord, and testing and tuning our prompts, classifiers, and transcription.
We never use your recordings, transcripts, or campaign content to train AI models, ours or anyone else’s, and we never sell or license your content to others.
- Corrections and feedback. Edits, corrections, label changes, citation rejections, “why” notes, and other feedback can be used to improve Dice Party for everyone, with no obligation or compensation to you. That still never means training AI models.
- Derived data. Transcripts, citations, entities, labels, and search indexes we generate from your sessions are part of the service. We keep them under the retention rules on our Privacy page, and they stay under the same no-training and no-sale rules as your content.
- Aggregated statistics. We may analyze how Dice Party is used and publish de-identified, aggregated statistics. We never sell your data. We never show anyone metrics about an individual player, such as how much someone talked or edited, not the table and not the GM. A GM can see who made each edit to their campaign.
- Shared campaigns. What you add to a campaign, such as corrections, labels, and notes, is visible to its members and stays with the campaign if you leave. The GM has the final say on campaign edits.
- Published material. If you read or record material someone else published, like adventure modules or music, you are responsible for having the right to. We only process it to provide the service.
Acceptable Use
Dice Party runs on AI partners, including Anthropic, and their usage policies apply to everything you record. Tabletop games go to dark places, and that’s part of the fun. But the following are off-limits in any session you record with Dice Party, including in-character and in fiction:
- Anything that sexualizes minors. No exceptions, ever, including fiction, roleplay, or characters described as young. We report child sexual abuse material to the authorities.
- Sexually explicit content. Romance and innuendo are fine; explicit scenes are not. Fade to black, or pause the recording.
- Content that promotes, trivializes, or glorifies graphic violence, gore, sexual violence, or cruelty to animals.
- Hate and extremism. No promoting violent extremism, terrorism, or hatred of people based on race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, caste, or disability.
- Harassing or harming real people. No bullying, threats, sharing intimate images without consent, false claims about real people, or exposing someone’s private information.
- Promoting self-harm or eating disorders.
- Manipulating the AI. No attempts to trick or “jailbreak” the AI that writes your notes.
- The basics. No illegal recordings, malware, attempts to break our security, or use of the Services to train competing models without our consent. Respect Discord’s own guidelines and terms.
You are responsible for what’s said in sessions recorded on your server.
Enforcement
If a session breaks these rules, we may decline to generate notes, remove notes or parts of them, or suspend access. We prefer to talk things out, but we will act immediately when we need to, and we report child sexual abuse material to the authorities.
Service Changes & Availability
Dice Party is under active development. We may add or remove features, run experiments, or pause functionality to maintain reliability. We strive for uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. If something breaks we will communicate through Discord status channels or email whenever possible.
Features marked beta, preview, or experimental may change or disappear, and they are provided as is.
Changes to these Terms
We update these Terms as Dice Party evolves. Each version is dated and kept below; a new version takes effect on its stated date, and using Dice Party after that date means you accept it.
Past versions
Each earlier version of these Terms is kept in full, with the dates it was in effect.
- Terms of Service v2026.10.09, dated October 9, 2026, in effect until November 12, 2026.
Disclaimer
Dice Party is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the extent permitted by law. That includes any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and any promise that AI-generated notes, recaps, or other output are accurate or complete.
Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Fun Side LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages — including lost data, lost profits, or interrupted play — arising from your use of Dice Party. Our total liability will not exceed the amount you paid to us in the previous 12 months.
Indemnity
You agree to cover Fun Side LLC for claims, losses, and reasonable costs that come from content you record or upload, or from your violation of these Terms or the law, such as recording someone without their consent.
Termination
You may stop using Dice Party at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms (including the Acceptable Use and Enforcement sections above) or put our systems/community at risk. We prefer to talk things out, but reserve the right to take immediate action when needed.
Disputes
- Talk to us first. Before filing any claim, contact us through the Disputes page (Discord #disputes) or at disputes@diceparty.co, and give us 30 days to try to resolve it informally.
- Small claims. Either side may always bring an eligible claim in small claims court.
- Law and courts. Otherwise New York law and the state or federal courts in New York, NY apply, as the next section says. There is no arbitration and no class-action waiver.
Governing Law & Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to the Disputes section above, disputes will be heard in state or federal courts located in New York, NY.
General
- Assignment. We may transfer these Terms in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets. You may not transfer them without our consent.
- Severability. If a part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
- Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about Dice Party.
- No waiver. If we do not enforce a part of these Terms right away, we have not given up the right to do so later.
