<p>
You can pair the phone app directly with your computer, or sign in to use Scient Connect. When you sign in, we receive your account email and user ID through Clerk.
</p>
<p>
To deliver notifications, Live Activities and widgets, we keep a random ID for your phone, its name, its operating system and app version, its notification tokens, and the project and conversation titles and short status lines those notifications show. Apple and Google carry the notifications. The latest status shown on your phone is kept until a newer one replaces it or you remove the phone or your account; notification delivery records are kept for 7 days.
</p>
<p>
The app sends error reports (error message, stack trace, app version, device model and operating system) and startup timings with a random ID that isn't tied to your account; you can turn them off in the app's Diagnostics settings. Requests to Scient Connect are also traced, and those traces are linked to your account. Diagnostics and logs are kept for 30 days. The app has no advertising or analytics trackers.
</p>
<p>
Your conversations and files travel between the phone and your own computers, and we don't store them. Through Scient Connect they are encrypted. A direct connection is encrypted when your computer's address uses HTTPS or a private network such as a tailnet; a plain <code>http://</code> address on a local network is not encrypted.
</p>
<p>
Voice dictation runs on the phone, or on your own computer with the speech service you choose there. On Android, Google's on-device speech component (ML Kit) sends Google device and app information, identifiers and diagnostics under Google's terms.
</p>
<p>
Deleting your account in the app removes your account, linked computers, phone registrations and notification records right away. <a href="/support#support-delete">What account deletion removes</a>.

In the phone app, open <strong>Settings → Scient Account → Scient Connect</strong> and choose <strong>Delete account</strong>. This deletes your Scient account and removes your linked computers from Scient Connect. You can also ask us by email.

Deleted right away: your account, linked computers and the tunnels Scient Connect created for them, phone registrations and notification tokens, and notification, Live Activity and delivery records. Technical logs and diagnostics already recorded expire after 30 days. Crash reports aren't tied to your account and also expire after 30 days. Files and conversations on your own computers are not touched. If another device links a computer while the deletion is running, delete again or email us so we can remove it.

<section class="content-section" aria-labelledby="terms-who">
<p class="content-section__label">Who we are</p>
<div class="content-section__body">
<h2 id="terms-who">Who we are</h2>
<p>
Scient and ScientFactory are operated by GENORE PREV LTD, an Israeli company (company number 516936846). By using Scient you agree to these terms.
</p>
</div>
</section>

<section class="content-section" aria-labelledby="terms-use">
<p class="content-section__label">Using Scient</p>
<div class="content-section__body">
<h2 id="terms-use">Using Scient</h2>
<p>
Scient runs on your own computers. You choose which AI services, models and tools it uses, and you are responsible for your use of them under their own terms, including any fees they charge.
</p>
<p>
Agents can read and change files, run commands and act in services you connect. Review what they do, keep backups of important work, and only connect accounts and computers you are allowed to use.
</p>
<p>
Don't use Scient to break the law, to harm others, or to attack, overload or get around the security of our services or anyone else's.
</p>

<section class="content-section" aria-labelledby="terms-account">
<p class="content-section__label">Your account</p>
<div class="content-section__body">
<h2 id="terms-account">Your account</h2>
<p>
A Scient account is needed only for Scient Connect and the hosted app; the phone app can also pair directly with your computer without one. Keep your sign-in secure; you are responsible for activity on your account.
</p>
<p>
You can delete your account at any time from the phone app's account settings, or by emailing <a href="mailto:support@scientfactory.com">support@scientfactory.com</a>. Deleting it removes your linked computers from Scient Connect.

<p class="content-section__label">Your work</p>
<div class="content-section__body">
<h2 id="terms-content">Your work stays yours</h2>
<p>
Your files, conversations and research results belong to you. Scient Connect carries them encrypted between your own devices; we don't claim any rights to them. Our <a href="/privacy">privacy notice</a> explains what information we collect.

<h2 id="terms-service">The service</h2>
<p>
Scient is provided as is. We work to keep it reliable, but we don't promise it will always be available or free of errors, and AI output can be wrong. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for loss of data.
</p>
<p>
We may change Scient and these terms. When a change matters, we will say so in the app or on this page before it takes effect. We may suspend accounts that break these terms.
</p>
<p>
Scient Desktop's source code is published under its own license, which governs the code itself. On iPhone and iPad, Apple's standard end-user license agreement also applies to the Scient app.
