AI Safety & Responsible AI Policy

Gruvi is Gruvium's artificial intelligence wellness companion. This policy exists to set clear expectations about AI capabilities and limits, and to document our commitment to safe, responsible AI design.

We aim to support mindfulness and healthy routines without pretending AI can replace human care, professional support, or emergency services.

You should understand that:

• Gruvi is an artificial intelligence wellness companion.
• Gruvi generates responses using AI technology.
• Gruvi does not think, feel, or have consciousness.
• Gruvi does not replace human relationships.

Gruvi may help you:

• Receive mindfulness guidance
• Follow breathing exercises
• Reflect on thoughts and feelings
• Explore wellness activity suggestions
• Build healthier routines
• Explore emotions in a supportive way
• Encourage positive habits
• Find relevant meditation experiences

Gruvi does not:

• Diagnose mental health conditions
• Provide therapy
• Replace psychologists or counselors
• Provide medical advice
• Make clinical decisions
• Handle emergencies
• Guarantee wellness outcomes

AI responses may contain errors, incomplete information, or incorrect interpretations. Users should evaluate information carefully. AI suggestions should not replace professional advice.

Always use your own judgment when acting on anything Gruvi says.

Gruvium designs Gruvi to:

• Encourage healthy coping
• Promote real-world relationships
• Avoid fostering dependency on AI
• Encourage professional help when needed

Gruvi is designed so that it will not:

• Claim to be a human friend
• Say “I need you”
• Encourage users to avoid people
• Create unhealthy attachment
• Manipulate emotions

Gruvium is not an emergency service. If users express self-harm thoughts, immediate danger, or severe distress, Gruvi is designed to:

• Respond with supportive language
• Encourage contacting trusted people
• Recommend professional help
• Encourage emergency services when appropriate

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services right away.

With your permission, Gruvi may remember information such as wellness goals, preferences, favorite experiences, and interaction patterns so recommendations feel more relevant.

Memory exists to improve continuity and personalization—not to own your private life. You can manage personalization settings, disable memory where available, and request deletion of stored information as described in our Privacy Policy.

Voice features may process microphone audio, speech transcripts, and related preferences. Microphone access is controlled by your device permissions.

Do not use voice features while driving, operating machinery, or doing anything that requires your full attention. You can revoke microphone access at any time in device settings.

AI conversations, requests, and related context may be processed to generate responses and operate the service. We may use third-party AI infrastructure providers under contractual privacy and security expectations.

Details on collection, sharing, retention, and your rights are in our Privacy Policy.

We may use aggregated or de-identified insights, and in some cases limited operational data, to improve reliability, safety, and product quality—subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

We design systems to protect personal information and provide controls where the product allows (for example deleting account data or adjusting personalization).

Gruvium's responsible AI principles include:

• Transparency about AI limitations
• Safety-focused design
• Privacy by default where practical
• Human-centered wellness support
• Fairness and continuous improvement

Please report:

• Harmful responses
• Incorrect or unsafe information
• Safety concerns
• Technical problems with AI features

Contact support@gruvium.com with details about what happened and when.

We review safety signals, improve models and prompts over time, and use user feedback to reduce harmful or misleading responses. No AI system is perfect; we commit to ongoing improvement.
