Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using Runenym (https://runenym.com), you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our website.

2. Description of Service

Runenym provides free fantasy name generators for use in tabletop role-playing games, creative writing, game development, and other personal or commercial creative projects. Our service generates names algorithmically based on linguistic patterns and does not store or track the names you generate.

3. Use of Generated Names

All names generated through our service are free to use without restriction. You may use generated names for:

• Personal projects (D&D campaigns, creative writing, etc.)
• Commercial projects (published novels, video games, etc.)
• Any other lawful purpose

No attribution is required, though we always appreciate a mention. We make no claim of ownership over names generated through our service.

4. AI-Generated Backstories

Our optional AI backstory feature uses third-party AI services to generate character backstories. By using this feature, you acknowledge that:

• Backstories are generated by AI and may contain inaccuracies or inconsistencies
• You are responsible for reviewing and editing backstories before use
• Generated backstories are provided as creative inspiration, not final content
• The same name may generate different backstories each time

Our service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that our service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. We make no warranties regarding the accuracy, reliability, or suitability of generated names for any particular purpose.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Runenym shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of our service. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid to use our service (which is $0, as our service is free).
