Acceptable use policy
What you can’t build, store or do with Tapwah.
Tapwah gives each person a Mac-hosted iPhone simulator, an AI agent and a backend for their app. Use them only to build and try your own apps, lawfully. This policy is part of our terms of use. It applies to everything you do on Tapwah: your messages, your app’s code, what your app does and the data it stores.
Content you may not create, store or share
Don’t use Tapwah for apps or content that:
- break the law, or help someone else break it;
- sexualize minors or exploit or endanger children in any way;
- contain sexually explicit material, or share intimate images of anyone without their consent;
- harass, bully, threaten, stalk, defame or intimidate anyone, or promote hatred or violence against people based on who they are;
- promote, support or glorify terrorism, violent extremism or self-harm;
- help make or get weapons, explosives, illegal drugs or other dangerous goods;
- deceive people, such as scams, fraud, phishing, fake reviews, impersonation, or apps that copy another company’s app or brand to mislead people;
- offer gambling, or financial, medical or legal services, without the licenses and permissions they require;
- infringe other people’s copyrights, trademarks, privacy, publicity or other rights;
- collect, track or monitor people without their knowledge and consent, or collect sensitive data (such as health, financial, biometric or government ID data, or data about children under 13) without a clear legal basis;
- send spam or unwanted messages.
Things you may not do
- Make malware, spyware, ransomware, phishing apps or other code meant to harm, take over or spy on devices, accounts or people.
- Try to get out of the app sandbox, reach our Macs or their network, other people’s sessions, apps or data, or get around the AI agent’s rules and limits, for example with prompts meant to make it ignore them.
- Probe, scan, test or overload our service or our providers, except as described on our security page.
- Access Tapwah with bots, scripts, scrapers or other automated means, or collect data from it, except through the pages we provide.
- Create more than one free account per person, use disposable email addresses, or share or switch accounts to get around the daily limits.
- Sell, resell, rent or share access to Tapwah, or use it to run something unrelated to building your app, such as mining cryptocurrency, hosting files for others, or running a proxy or VPN.
- Use your app’s backend to store or serve content for anything other than your app.
- Use Tapwah or its output in a way that breaks the usage policies of Anthropic, Apple or our other providers.
- Help, encourage or let anyone else do any of these things.
What we may do
We decide, at our discretion, whether something breaks this policy. We may, without notice: stop a session or a message, refuse a build, remove or disable content or an app, limit or suspend an account, or close it. We may also refuse sign-ups. We may look at an account’s content when we need to investigate a possible breach. Where we think it is appropriate and allowed, we’ll tell you why. We don’t have to monitor content, and we aren’t responsible for content our users create.
We may report activity that we believe is illegal to the police or other authorities, and we cooperate with valid legal requests. We report apparent child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC).
Report a problem
Seen something that breaks these rules, or think content on Tapwah infringes your rights? Email hello@tapwah.com with “Abuse report” in the subject. Tell us what you saw, where, and how to reach you. For a copyright complaint, include the work you own, where the infringing material is, your contact details, and a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorized and that your complaint is accurate. For security issues, see our security page.
Changes
We may change this policy. We’ll post changes here and update the date at the top. Continued use of Tapwah after a change means you accept it.
