Terms of Use
These Terms of Use govern the use of https://ca.psychologistai.ai and of the Psychologist AI service, operated by CEDIA Investigación y Desarrollo, S.L. (NIF B93806404), Av. Aragón 30, 46021 Valencia, Spain. The company's full details are available in the Legal Notice.
1. Introduction and nature of the service
1.1. Description of the service. Psychologist AI is a technology platform that uses artificial intelligence to provide information, guidance and resources related to emotional and psychological wellbeing. We offer automated conversation services, educational resources and self-help tools based on recognized psychological principles.
1.2. Nature of the service: virtual wellbeing assistant. Psychologist AI acts solely as a virtual assistant for emotional wellbeing supported by artificial intelligence technology. Its purpose is informative, educational and of general support for wellbeing. The answers, suggestions and recommendations provided are intended to complement the user's knowledge of mental wellbeing topics, but in no case do they intend to, or can they, replace the professional judgement of psychologists, psychiatrists or any other duly qualified and registered mental health professional.
1.3. Not a medical or professional psychological service. Psychologist AI is NOT a medical service, a professional psychological service or a clinical diagnosis service. We do not provide medical diagnoses, professional psychological treatment, prescriptions or specific medical advice. Any information provided should be regarded as general educational guidance and not as personalized professional advice or therapeutic treatment.
1.4. Artificial intelligence technology. Our services are based on artificial intelligence algorithms that process information and provide automated responses. Although we use advanced technology and extensive databases, users must understand that this is an automated system with the limitations inherent to this technology, and that at no time are they interacting with a mental health professional.
2. What Psychologist AI is not and does not do
Express statement of limitations. To ensure a clear and unambiguous understanding of the scope of the service, it is expressly stated that Psychologist AI is not, does not carry out and cannot carry out any of the following activities:
| Psychologist AI is NOT… | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Clinical diagnosis | The system does not assess, diagnose or determine the presence of any disorder, illness or mental health condition. No answer from the platform constitutes a medical or psychological diagnosis. |
| Psychotherapy | No therapeutic intervention of any kind is carried out. Conversations have no therapeutic value and are not equivalent to psychology or psychiatry sessions, clinical coaching or any other form of professional treatment. |
| Medical prescription | The platform does not prescribe, recommend or suggest medication, doses or pharmacological treatment of any kind. |
| Clinical risk assessment | The system does not assess the risk of suicide, self-harm or any other clinical risk. In a crisis, the user must contact a professional immediately. |
| Therapeutic relationship | There is no therapeutic relationship between the user and the platform, nor between the user and any professional. Interacting with the AI system does not create any clinical rights or obligations. |
| Emergency service | Psychologist AI is not a crisis or psychological emergency service. It must not be used as a resource in life-threatening situations or psychiatric emergencies. |
| Expert evidence or report | The conversations and answers generated by the system have no validity as a psychological report, expert assessment, certificate or official document of any kind. |
2.1. Name of the service. For the purposes of these Terms and of any official communication, Psychologist AI is defined as an AI-based virtual assistant for emotional wellbeing.

6.1. Confidential nature of conversations. The content of the conversations that users have with the Psychologist AI artificial intelligence assistant is considered confidential information. No third party, whether an individual or a legal entity, outside the technical operation essential to the service will have access to the content of those conversations.

- Critical errors in the AI system that may have generated potentially harmful or incorrect answers.

- The affected user will be notified as soon as technically possible, unless a legal confidentiality obligation temporarily prevents it.
- The information consulted will be subject to a reinforced duty of secrecy and may not be used for any purpose other than resolving the incident.
6.4. Processing of data to improve the service. If Psychologist AI uses conversation data in anonymized and aggregated form to improve the models or the service, users will be informed and their express and unambiguous consent will be obtained in advance, in accordance with Article 6 GDPR. Users may withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal.
6.5. Deletion of conversation history. Users have the right to request the deletion of their conversation history at any time, without prejudice to any minimum retention period required by law. The request can be made from the account settings or by writing to support@psicologoia.ai.

8. Privacy and data protection
8.1. Applicable regulations. The processing of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, in full compliance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 of 5 December on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD).
8.2. Data controller. The controller of users' personal data is the owner of the Psychologist AI platform, CEDIA Investigación y Desarrollo, S.L., whose full identifying details (company name, NIF and address for notifications) are set out in the Legal Notice. For any question about the processing of data, please write to support@psicologoia.ai.
8.3. Processing of special category data: health data (Art. 9 GDPR). Conversations held on this platform may contain information about the user's emotional, psychological or mental health. The GDPR classifies such data as a special category (health data, Art. 9.1 GDPR), which requires a higher level of protection.
The legal basis for processing this data is the user's explicit consent (Art. 9.2.a GDPR), given freely, specifically, in an informed and unambiguous manner at the time of registration through a separate checkbox. Users may withdraw this consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
Psychologist AI does not use this data to make clinical decisions or issue diagnoses, nor does it share it with health systems, insurers, employers or unauthorized third parties.
8.4. Data processor: Anthropic, PBC. To provide the artificial intelligence conversation service, Psychologist AI uses the API of Anthropic, PBC (Claude model). Under Article 28 GDPR, Anthropic acts as processor of the data that users enter in conversations, while Psychologist AI acts as controller.
The relationship with Anthropic is governed by its Data Processing Addendum (DPA), which includes the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission as a mechanism for international data transfers (modules 2 and 3). Anthropic undertakes to process the data only on the controller's instructions and not to use it to train its models unless expressly authorized.
8.5. International data transfers. Anthropic, PBC is based in San Francisco, California (USA). Processing conversations may involve an international transfer of data outside the European Economic Area. This transfer is carried out under the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission (Implementing Decision 2021/914), included in Anthropic's current DPA. Since August 2025, Anthropic has had infrastructure in several geographical regions (USA, Europe, Asia and Australia) to improve the reliability of the service.
8.6. Sub-processors. Psychologist AI informs users that the following main providers act as sub-processors in the provision of the service:
| Provider | Function | Location | GDPR safeguards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anthropic, PBC | Processing of conversations (Claude AI model) | USA / multi-region | DPA + SCCs (Art. 46 GDPR) |
| Hosting provider | Platform infrastructure and hosting | See the Privacy Policy | Signed DPA |
| Payment gateway (Stripe) | Processing of payments and subscriptions | USA / EU | DPA + SCCs |
| Email provider | Transactional communications and notifications | See the Privacy Policy | Signed DPA |
Users accept that Psychologist AI may use sub-processors to provide the service, provided that they are subject to equivalent data protection obligations. Users will be informed sufficiently in advance of any substantial change to the list of sub-processors.
8.7. Data retention by Anthropic. In accordance with Anthropic's policy for API customers, conversation inputs and outputs are deleted from Anthropic's servers within a maximum of 30 days of receipt or generation, unless a legal or technical exception applies (for example, if the conversation is flagged by abuse detection systems, in which case retention may be extended to up to 2 years). Anthropic does not use API data to train its AI models by default.
8.8. Data retention by Psychologist AI. Account data (username, email address) is kept for the duration of the contractual relationship and, once it ends, for the periods required by law. The conversation history stored on the platform is kept while the user's account remains active, unless earlier deletion is requested. Billing data is kept for the period required by current tax regulations (at least 5 years).
8.9. Restriction on use by minors. The service is intended only for persons aged 18 or over. Persons under 18 may not register for or use the service. In accordance with Article 7 LOPDGDD, processing the data of minors under 14 requires the consent of their parents or legal guardians. When registering, users expressly declare that they are 18 or older. If Psychologist AI becomes aware that a user is a minor, it will immediately cancel the account and erase the data.
8.10. Automated decisions. The service generates answers through automated processing of the information provided by the user. Under Article 22 GDPR, users have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significantly affect them. In the context of this service, the assistant's answers are purely informative and are not binding decisions. Users retain full autonomy over their personal decisions at all times. Users who wish to request a human review of an interaction can do so by writing to support@psicologoia.ai.
8.11. User rights. Users may exercise the following rights against Psychologist AI as data controller at any time:
- Access: obtain confirmation of whether their data is being processed and access it.
- Rectification: request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Erasure ("right to be forgotten"): request the deletion of their data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
- Restriction of processing: request the suspension of processing in certain cases.
