Terms of service
Effective 6 November 2026
Short version: use Kagura fairly, follow Discord's rules, check what the AI says before you trust it, and only share chapters you are allowed to share. Kagura comes as it is, with no promises.
1. Who these terms cover
Kagura is a Discord bot. It tracks manga raw releases, helps run servers, and chats with an AI model. The web dashboard at torchy.cc is part of Kagura. "We" means the people who run Kagura. "You" means anyone who adds Kagura to a server, talks to it, or uses the dashboard.
By using Kagura you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy. If you do not agree, do not use Kagura.
2. Who can use Kagura
- You must meet Discord's minimum age and follow Discord's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
- Age-restricted features are for adults only (18+) and only work in channels Discord marks as age-restricted.
- If you use Kagura for a group, you confirm you may accept these terms for that group.
3. Server owners and admins
- Tell your members that an AI bot is active in your server and that it reads recent messages to reply.
- You choose the AI provider and add the API key. Your provider's terms, prices, and limits apply. You pay what your provider charges.
- You are responsible for how you set Kagura up: personas, prompts, channels, roles, and moderation actions you ask it to take.
- Kagura asks you to confirm large or destructive actions. You are still responsible for what you confirm.
- A dashboard account controls the server it is linked to. Keep your password safe. Do not share link codes from
/claim.
4. What you must not do
- Break the law, or use Kagura to help anyone else break it.
- Make, ask for, or share sexual content involving minors, in any form. We report this where the law requires.
- Harass, threaten, dox, or impersonate people.
- Spam, flood, or try to overload Kagura, its providers, or the sites the raw tracker checks.
- Try to get around rate limits, permissions, age checks, or safety features.
- Attack, probe, or reverse-engineer the service, the dashboard, or other users' data. Report security problems to us privately instead.
- Use Kagura to copy, sell, or spread content you have no right to share.
5. AI replies
Kagura's replies come from AI models. They can be wrong, out of date, rude, or made up. Do not rely on them for medical, legal, money, or safety decisions. You are responsible for what you do with them. Personas are fiction and do not speak for us.
6. Raw tracking and chapters
- The raw tracker checks public series pages on third-party sites and posts when a new chapter is out. We do not own or control those sites.
- Kagura only downloads chapters that the site offers for free. Chapter files may be stored so Kagura can send them on request.
- You are responsible for making sure you may download, keep, and share the content you track. Respect each site's terms and each creator's rights.
- If you own a work and want it removed from Kagura, contact us (see section 12). We will remove it.
7. Your content
You keep the rights to what you send to Kagura: messages, images, files, prompts, and personas. You give us permission to process them only as needed to run Kagura, as the privacy policy explains. Do not send anything you have no right to share.
8. Moderation by Kagura
Kagura can time out, kick, ban, or block members when a server's admins set it up to do so, or ask it to. Those choices belong to that server. We can also stop Kagura from replying to anyone who breaks these terms.
9. Changes and ending
We may change, pause, or stop Kagura or any feature at any time. We may block a user or leave a server that breaks these terms. You can stop at any time: remove Kagura from your server, and delete your data as the privacy policy explains.
10. No warranty
Kagura is free and provided "as is" and "as available". We do not promise it will be correct, safe, always online, or fit for any purpose. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage from using Kagura, including lost data, lost profits, or costs from your AI provider.
11. Source code
Kagura is free software under the GNU Affero General Public License v3. Ask us for a copy of the source code that runs it.
12. Contact and updates
For questions, takedown requests, or security reports, contact the Kagura team through the Discord server where you use Kagura, or through torchy.cc.
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If you keep using Kagura after a change, you accept the new terms.
