Definitions
The meaning of each defined word in our Terms & Conditions, User Terms and Privacy Policy.
Version 2.0 · Last updated 20 October 2026
These Definitions explain words used in Paldar's Terms & Conditions (https://www.paldar.com/legal/terms), User Terms (https://www.paldar.com/legal/user-terms) and Privacy Policy (https://www.paldar.com/legal/privacy). They form part of the Terms & Conditions and are covered by their version label, and the User Terms incorporate them as they stood on the User Terms' own date. A word defined here has the same meaning in all three documents. The singular includes the plural, and examples are for illustration only.
- Account means an individual's Paldar login to the Service. Anyone with an account is a User.
- AI Coach means the AI feature of the Service that chats with Participants about their goals and development. It is a self development tool, not professional, clinical or mental health advice.

- AI Output means output generated by the AI Features, including anything from the AI coach or Chief.
