shipped

  • MAJR — majr.app has a privacy policy at /privacy: what is collected, who it goes to, how long it is kept, and what is not done with it.
  • MAJR — majr.app has terms of use at /terms, with the liability cap, the governing law, and the beta's limits written down rather than left to inference.
  • MAJR — the access form names both documents beside its submit button, so agreeing to them is part of asking for access instead of something to find in the footer.
  • MAJR — the build refuses to publish a legal page that still has a blank in it, and the check now walks the whole document, so a section added later is covered without anyone remembering to add it to a list.

majr.app publishes a privacy policy and terms of use, and both are live. they were written against what is true right now: a free beta with no billing, access by a token issued by hand, and no availability guarantee, so the documents say those things instead of implying more. the privacy policy states plainly that customer data is not used to train models, and it admits that no zero-retention arrangement is in place with the model provider, because implying a stronger guarantee than exists was the easier and worse option. the build now refuses to publish either document with an unfilled blank left in it, and that check reads the whole document rather than a list of fields someone has to remember to keep current.

in flight

MAJR · the notice is live beside the submit button and links both documents; the required checkbox is not built.

making acceptance of the terms explicit: a checkbox the access form will not submit without, rather than acceptance implied by the act of asking for a token.

→ build it before any paid tier opens.

exploring

  • how much a legal document should claim about who owns model output. the terms state it as between you and us, and say outright that machine-generated material may not attract copyright in your jurisdiction at all, rather than assigning rights that may not exist to assign.
  • which parts of the terms stop being true the day billing starts. the sections that only hold because there are no fees are marked as such in place, so that rewrite is a known list rather than a re-read of the whole document.

system status & ops

nothing new in monitoring; the two open error groups are a blocked introspection query and a rejected unauthenticated request, both guards behaving as intended.

  • MAJR — both new pages serving, and the deploy behind them went green
  • MAJR agent services — the build that dropped the cold-start retry machinery is out; nothing new in monitoring
  • Return Goblin — quiet, nothing new in monitoring
  • Dossier — quiet, nothing new in monitoring

back at it sunday.
