Charges: Message and data rates may apply from your mobile carrier. Roasty is free to use, but your carrier may charge for SMS messages.

5. Content & Safety

Roasty is designed to be playful, not harmful. Our AI is programmed with safety guardrails:

  • No hate speech or harassment
  • No targeting of protected classes (race, religion, gender, etc.)
  • No body shaming or appearance-based comments
  • No personal attacks on sensitive topics
  • Respectful boundaries with multiple safety layers

If you receive content that violates these standards, text /report [reason] and we will investigate immediately.

6. Data & Privacy

  • Your phone number (for SMS delivery)
  • Messages you send us (for context and AI responses)

What we DON'T do:

  • Share your data with third parties for marketing
  • Sell your personal information

Data retention: Messages are kept for 30 days for context, then automatically deleted. Preferences are kept while you're opted in.

7. Age Requirements

You must be at least 13 years old to use Roasty. If you are under 18, you should have parental consent before opting in. Parents can opt their minor children out at any time by texting "STOP" from the child's phone.

8. Service Availability
