Terms of Service

Last updated: October 2026



Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using the Best Move mobile application ("App", "Service") operated by Best Move ("we", "us", "our").

By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of these Terms, you may not use the App.

1. DECISION SUPPORT DISCLAIMER


IMPORTANT: Best Move is a decision-support tool, not a source of professional advice.

All game models, payoff matrices, equilibria, strategies and recommendations provided by this App are generated for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.

You expressly acknowledge and agree that:

• Recommendations are produced by mathematical game-theory models combined with AI (large language model) analysis of the situation as you described it. Their quality depends on the completeness and accuracy of your description.
• AI-generated content may contain errors, omissions or inaccuracies, and the App CANNOT predict actual future events or other people’s behavior.
• The App’s output is NOT professional advice — legal, financial, medical, psychological, or otherwise — and is not a substitute for consulting a qualified professional.
• You will NOT rely on this App as the sole basis for making any significant decision. The final decision, and responsibility for it, is always yours.

2. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY


TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO AND THE FEDERAL LAWS OF CANADA:

• The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
• We expressly disclaim all warranties including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
• We shall NOT be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, goodwill, data, or other intangible losses.
• We shall NOT be liable for any decisions you make based on the App's content or any actions you take as a result of using the App.
• We shall NOT be liable for any interruption, suspension, or termination of the App or any features thereof, including unavailability of third-party services (such as the Anthropic API or Google services).
• Our total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising from or related to the App shall not exceed the lesser of: (a) the amount you paid for the App in the twelve (12) months prior to the claim, or (b) fifty Canadian dollars (CAD $50.00).

3. USER DATA AND PRIVACY


Your privacy is important to us. Please review our Privacy Policy (available in the App: About → Privacy Policy), which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

Key points:
• All scenarios and analysis results are stored LOCALLY on your device by default.
• When you run an AI analysis, the text of your scenario is sent to the Anthropic API solely to perform the analysis. It passes through our relay server at api.bestmove.dev, which attaches the API credentials and forwards the request. No other data is transmitted.
• Our relay does NOT store or log your scenario text. It keeps only technical metadata — the endpoint called, the HTTP status, the duration, and a one-way hash of your installation identifier — to apply usage limits and protect the service from abuse.
• We do NOT sell your data and do NOT store your scenarios or analysis results on our servers.
• If you use your own Anthropic API key (Premium), those requests go directly to Anthropic and do not pass through our relay.
• Optional cloud backup (Google Drive) requires your explicit authorization and stores data in YOUR account.
• You can export or delete your data at any time through the App's settings.
• Our data practices comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
