AI Disclaimer

1. Purpose

This AI Disclaimer explains the limitations of artificial intelligence features available within Q Intelligence ("the Service"), operated by Scott Harvey-Whittle trading as SHW Digital Services.

It should be read together with the:

By using AI features, you acknowledge and accept the limitations described in this document.

Medical and Crisis Disclaimer

Not a Clinical Service

Q Intelligence is a self-help and guidance tool. It is not a clinical treatment service, a medical device, or a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or psychiatric care. The platform's features, including AI conversations, life guides, and mood tracking, are intended for personal reflection and organisational purposes only.

Mood Tracking and Premium Insights

Journaling summaries and premium journal insights describe recorded patterns based solely on the data you choose to enter. They cannot diagnose a medical or mental health condition, establish the cause of a mood change, or represent your overall wellbeing on days you did not record.

Emergency and Crisis Support

Q Intelligence is not an emergency responder and does not provide a staffed helpline. The platform does not actively monitor your inputs for emergencies. While the application checks for crisis-related language and can signpost you to country-specific support directories, it cannot guarantee the detection of a crisis. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, contact emergency services (such as 999 in the UK) or a dedicated helpline immediately.

Privacy and Data Security Disclaimer

Local AI and Network Usage

While Q Intelligence offers a "local AI" processing mode, this does not mean the application operates entirely offline. Core functions such as account authentication, selected cloud continuity features, and any hosted AI processing you choose to enable require active network services and internet connections.

Discretion Limits and Device Storage

Features such as the Notes interface and the app-lock PIN are designed to reduce casual on-screen exposure. However, setting an app PIN does not encrypt the content stored on your device. Using these features does not erase your device's browser history, downloads, or network traffic records.

Cloud Continuity and Hosted Processing Risks

If you opt into premium cloud continuity, your data is backed up to Q's cloud servers, but these backups are not end-to-end encrypted. If you explicitly select hosted AI processing, your conversation context is sent to the configured provider: Groq when configured, otherwise OpenAI. Q applies personal-information masking and sanitisation controls to these requests, but absolute anonymity cannot be guaranteed, particularly if free-text journal entries or chat prompts contain identifiable details. Provider retention and location details appear in the Processor Register.


2. AI Technology

Q Intelligence provides both on-device AI through WebLLM and an optional hosted AI service. Users select the mode used for a conversation. These technologies assist users with tasks such as:

AI models generate responses probabilistically and do not "know" facts in the same way a human expert does.


3. No Guarantee of Accuracy

AI-generated output may:

You must independently verify all AI-generated information before relying upon it.


4. No Professional Advice

AI responses are provided for general informational purposes only.

They are not legal, financial, accounting, tax, medical, engineering, compliance, or other regulated professional advice.

You should consult an appropriately qualified professional before making decisions that could have legal, financial, medical, or other significant consequences.


5. User Responsibility

You remain solely responsible for:

The Service assists users—it does not replace human judgement.


6. User Content

You should only upload content that you:

Do not upload confidential, sensitive, or regulated information unless you have the necessary authority and your use complies with applicable laws and organisational policies.


7. Intellectual Property

AI-generated output may resemble publicly available material or content generated for other users.

Q Intelligence does not guarantee that AI-generated content:

You are responsible for carrying out appropriate legal and commercial checks before publishing or using AI-generated content.


8. Availability of AI Services

Local AI depends on compatible browser hardware, WebGPU support, sufficient storage, and the availability of model-download infrastructure. Hosted AI depends on configured third-party providers (Groq or OpenAI) and network availability.

We may:

without liability where reasonably necessary for operational, security, legal, or commercial reasons.


9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, SHW Digital Services accepts no liability for loss or damage arising from:

Nothing in this Disclaimer excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.


10. Acceptable AI Use

You must not use Q Intelligence's AI features to:

Use of AI features remains subject to our Acceptable Use Policy.

Help Videos and their written steps explain site features; they do not provide medical, legal, emergency or other professional advice. News updates are shown with the news item they concern.
