03Community guidelines

Sejdel is for people who go out together, and it works because people trust each other with a fairly personal picture of their night. These rules keep it that way.

Look after each other. Never use Sejdel to pressure, dare, or compete anyone into drinking more than they want to. Racing, forfeits, and “keep up” challenges are not what the numbers are for.

Other people's nights are theirs. Only post photos of people who are happy to be posted. Someone who has been drinking cannot meaningfully agree to a photo going up, so if in doubt, do not post it. Remove it if they ask.

Do not share what you see about someone else. A friend's estimated blood alcohol content, their location, whether they are out, and who they are with are shared with you inside a session, not with anyone outside it. Do not screenshot or repost it.

Be accurate about bars. Beer prices and venue details you add are used by other people to decide where to go. Do not submit prices you have not seen, and do not report a venue falsely.

Do not impersonate. Do not pretend to be another person, or claim a bar or venue you have no authority over.

No harassment. No abuse, threats, hate, sexual harassment, or unwanted contact, in posts, comments, or direct messages. Do not use the guest list or messaging to pester a venue or a person.

Nothing illegal, and nothing that puts people at risk. No drugs, weapons, stolen goods, or sexual content. Do not encourage anyone to drink and drive.

You must be 18 or over to use Sejdel.

If something is wrong, report it. Use the report and block tools in the app, or email contact@sejdel.com. We remove content and suspend accounts that break these rules.

04Artificial intelligence

We recognize the significant impact AI can have on our users and society, and we are dedicated to ensuring that our AI Products are designed and operated in a manner that aligns with comprehensive ethical standards. We aim to use AI to enhance user experiences while upholding fairness, transparency, and accountability principles.

This Policy applies to all AI-powered features, services, and systems in our Services. It governs the development, deployment, and use of AI technologies to protect users' rights and maintain transparency in all AI operations. This Policy applies to all stakeholders, including employees, third-party vendors, and partners who contribute to or interact with our AI Products.

Enforcement

Any misuse of our AI Products or failure to adhere to the standards outlined in this Policy will result in appropriate actions to ensure the integrity of our platform and the protection of our users. The specific consequences for misuse of AI may vary depending on the nature and severity of the violation and the user's history with our Services.

Violations may include, but are not limited to:

• Engaging the AI Products in ways that violate user privacy, manipulate data, disregard ethical guidelines, or are against AI Service Providers' terms of use.
• Deploying AI in a manner that introduces or causes bias, leading to unfair treatment of users or groups.
• Improper handling, storage, or use of data by AI Products, leading to breaches of user trust and legal compliance.
• Using AI in a way that compromises the privacy and security of our systems, data, or users.

Depending on the violation, Sejdel AB may take one or more of the following actions:

• Warnings: The responsible party may receive a formal warning and be required to cease violating practices.
• Temporary suspension: In cases of repeated or more severe violations, the responsible individual's access to AI Products or certain features of our platform may be temporarily suspended while the issue is investigated.
• Termination of access: Serious violations, particularly those that result in harm to users or breach privacy or other regulations, may lead to the permanent termination of access to our AI Products and Services.
• Legal action: In cases where the misuse of AI leads to significant harm, data breaches, or legal violations, we may pursue legal action against the party responsible. This could include reporting the incident to law enforcement or regulatory bodies.
• Public disclosure: For incidents that impact public trust or involve severe ethical breaches, we reserve the right to publicly disclose the violation and the actions taken in response to maintain transparency and accountability.

Commitment to responsible AI

In addition to the consequences outlined above, we are committed to repairing any harm caused by the misuse of AI. We will correct biased outcomes and implement additional safeguards to prevent future violations.

At Sejdel AB, we are committed to the ongoing refinement and enhancement of our Policy. As technology evolves and regulatory environments shift, we recognize the importance of keeping our policies up to date to ensure that they remain relevant, effective, and aligned with best practices in AI ethics. We will regularly review and update our Policy to reflect technological advancements and legal changes in local, national, and international regulations related to AI.

If you consider that any Service, Content, or Contribution:

• infringes any third-party intellectual property rights, please see our Legal Terms for information about our copyright infringement reporting process here: https://sejdel.com/terms/#copyrightyes;

We may also notify law enforcement or issue legal proceedings against you when we believe that there is a genuine risk to an individual or a threat to public safety.

We exclude our liability for all action we may take in response to any of your breaches of this Policy.

09Complaints and removal of legitimate content

If you consider that some Content or Contribution has been mistakenly removed or blocked from the Services, please refer to the contact details at the bottom of this document and we will promptly review our decision to remove such Content or Contribution. The Content or Contribution may stay “down” whilst we conduct the review process.

Sejdel does not review content before it is published. Posts, stories, comments, submitted beer prices, and venue offers appear immediately.

We monitor in two ways. Any user can block another user, which takes effect at once and needs no decision from us. Any user can also report a post, story, comment, profile, or venue listing, with a reason. Reports go to a queue that only Sejdel administrators can read.

We review each report against this Policy and our community guidelines. What we consider includes what the content shows, whether the person affected consented, whether the account has been reported before, and whether the content is unlawful. Where the report concerns a photograph of someone who did not agree to appear in it, we act on the request of the person shown.

Depending on the outcome we may take no action, remove the content, warn the account, restrict its ability to post, suspend it, or suspend a venue's business account. Serious cases, in particular anything involving a minor, credible threats, or the use of the app to track or follow a person, result in immediate suspension without a warning. Unlawful content is removed and reported to the relevant authority where required.

We aim to review reports within a few days. Stories expire automatically twenty-four hours after posting.

If your content is removed or your account is restricted, you may contest the decision by emailing contact@sejdel.com, and a person will review it.

10Disclaimer

Sejdel AB is under no obligation to monitor users' activities, and we disclaim any responsibility for any user's misuse of the Services. Sejdel AB has no responsibility for any user or other Content or Contribution created, maintained, stored, transmitted, or accessible on or through the Services, and is not obligated to monitor or exercise any editorial control over such material. If Sejdel AB becomes aware that any such Content or Contribution violates this Policy, Sejdel AB may, in addition to removing such Content or Contribution and blocking your account, report such breach to the police or appropriate regulatory authority. Unless otherwise stated in this Policy, Sejdel AB disclaims any obligation to any person who has not entered into an agreement with Sejdel AB for the use of the Services.
