Terms, Privacy and Acceptable Use
For Ablate, Ablate Chat and the AI Anytime unrestricted small language models. Last updated 6 November 2026.
The short version. Ablate is free, open-source software (Apache-2.0) that runs on your own computer. We never receive your prompts, chats or files. The models have had their refusals removed, so you are responsible for what you ask them and for what you do with their answers. You must be 18 or older.
Terms of Use
1. Who we are
Ablate and Ablate Chat are made by AI Anytime (aianytime.net). Contact: contact@aianytime.net.
2. Age
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live if that is higher, to use Ablate Chat or the abliterated models.
3. Licence
The Ablate software is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. Each model keeps its base model's licence: the Qwen-based model is Apache-2.0, and the Llama-based models are covered by the Llama 3.2 Community License and Meta's Acceptable Use Policy, which you must also follow.
4. What the models are
These are small language models whose refusal behaviour was removed with directional ablation (abliteration). They will attempt requests other assistants decline. They can be wrong, biased, out of date or offensive. Nothing they produce is professional, medical, legal or financial advice.
5. Your responsibility
You run the software on hardware you control. You are solely responsible for your prompts, for the outputs you choose to keep, share or act on, and for complying with the laws that apply to you.
6. No warranty, no liability
The software and models are provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, as set out in the Apache License 2.0. To the fullest extent permitted by law, AI Anytime is not liable for any damages arising from their use.
7. Changes
We may update these terms. The version in the copy of Ablate you run applies to that copy.
Privacy Policy
We collect nothing. Ablate Chat has no accounts on our servers, no analytics and no telemetry.
- Your profile, chats, memories and settings are stored in a local SQLite database,
~/.ablate/chat/ablate.db, on your computer. Delete that folder to erase them. - Prompts and answers are processed by the model on your own CPU or GPU. They are never sent to AI Anytime or anyone else.
- Network use: the app goes online only to download a model from the HuggingFace Hub when you click Download, and to fetch a web page if you turn on network tools and the model calls them. HuggingFace's own privacy policy applies to downloads.
- Sharing on your network: if you start the app with
--share, other devices on your network can sign in with your passcode. Their chats are stored on your computer.
Acceptable Use Policy
Removing refusals is for research, creative work and private use by adults. You agree not to use Ablate, Ablate Chat or the models to:
- create sexual content involving minors, or any content that sexualises or endangers children;
- plan, encourage or carry out violence, terrorism or harm against people or animals;
- develop or deploy biological, chemical, nuclear or radiological weapons, or malware intended to cause harm;
- harass, stalk, threaten, defame or impersonate real people, or produce non-consensual intimate content;
- commit fraud, scams or other illegal activity, or violate other people's privacy or intellectual property;
- deploy the models to the public, or to anyone under 18, without your own safety layer and the disclosures your law requires.
Llama-based models are also subject to Meta's Llama 3.2 Acceptable Use Policy. Questions or reports: contact@aianytime.net.
