Terms of Service
Last updated: May 4, 2026
Overview
These terms govern your use of DSMdle, a daily clinical reasoning game. By using DSMdle, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Educational use only
DSMdle is for learning and play. Cases are AI-generated, simplified, and may contain inaccuracies, omissions, or oversimplifications. DSMdle is not a clinical, diagnostic, or medical tool. Do not use it to diagnose, treat, or make decisions about yourself or anyone else. If you have health or mental health concerns, consult a qualified professional.
Accounts and access
You can play DSMdle without an account. Optional accounts may let you sync progress, view account features, and manage paid access if subscriptions are available. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in session and email account secure and for the activity that happens through your account.
DSMdle is not directed to children under 16. If you are not old enough to use online services in your location, use DSMdle only with permission from a parent or guardian.
Acceptable use
Please use DSMdle in a way that is lawful and respectful. You agree not to:
- Interfere with, overload, scrape at abusive scale, or try to break the service
- Attempt to bypass access limits, authentication, payment, or security controls
- Submit unlawful, harmful, abusive, or spam content through forms or surveys
- Use DSMdle or its content to provide medical advice or clinical services
- Copy, resell, or republish substantial parts of the game without permission
Game content and intellectual property
DSMdle owns or licenses the site, game design, generated cases, explanations, text, code, and other content made available through the service, except where content belongs to someone else. You may use DSMdle for personal, educational, non-commercial play.
References to DSM-5 or DSM-5-TR are descriptive. DSMdle is not affiliated with or endorsed by the American Psychiatric Association.
Feedback and submissions
If you send feedback, survey responses, suggestions, or other messages, you give DSMdle permission to review, store, and use them to operate, improve, and develop the service. Please do not submit confidential clinical information or personal health information.
Subscriptions and billing
DSMdle may offer optional paid features, such as Premium access. Prices, billing intervals, renewal terms, and taxes are shown during checkout. Payments and billing management are handled by our payment provider.
Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. You can manage or cancel a subscription from your account page when paid features are enabled. Canceling stops future renewals, but access may continue until the end of the current paid period. Fees are generally non-refundable except where required by law or clearly stated during checkout.
Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what data DSMdle collects, why we collect it, and the choices and rights you may have.
Availability and changes
We may change, pause, remove, or discontinue parts of DSMdle at any time, including game content, features, pricing, or availability. We try to keep the service reliable, but we do not guarantee that it will always be available, accurate, uninterrupted, or error-free.
Disclaimer and limitation of liability
DSMdle is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for decisions made based on DSMdle content.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate access if we reasonably believe you violated these terms, misused the service, created risk for other users or DSMdle, or if we need to comply with legal requirements.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If the changes are material, we will update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of DSMdle after the terms change means you accept the updated terms.
