By creating an account or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use Aura.
You must be at least 18 years old to use Aura. By using the App, you represent and warrant that:
We reserve the right to request proof of age at any time and to terminate accounts where we have reason to believe a user is under 18. We take minor safety seriously and have zero tolerance for underage use.
To use Aura, you must create an account. You agree to:
You may only maintain one (1) account. Creating multiple accounts to evade a suspension or ban is strictly prohibited and will result in permanent removal from the platform.
Aura is a live video social and dating application designed for adults 18 and older. The Service facilitates short-form live video calls between matched users, typically averaging approximately three (3) minutes. Aura does not guarantee successful connections, matches, or any specific outcome from use of the Service.
We do not guarantee that the App will be available at all times. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access to the Service at any time for maintenance, upgrades, or any other reason without prior notice.
Aura uses a limited call recording system solely for the purpose of safety enforcement and report verification. By using the Service, you expressly acknowledge and consent to the following:
All live video calls conducted through the App are recorded at the technical level during the call session. This recording is used exclusively to verify user reports and enforce our Community Guidelines.
If no report is submitted by either party during or immediately following a call session, the recording is automatically and permanently deleted upon conclusion of the call. Aura does not retain, review, store, or use recordings where no report has been made.
If a user submits a report against another user during or after a call session, the recording of that specific session will be retained temporarily for the sole purpose of reviewing the report and determining whether a violation of these Terms or our Community Guidelines occurred. Retained recordings are:
By initiating or accepting a live video call on Aura, you provide explicit, informed consent to being recorded for the safety purposes described above. If you do not consent to this recording policy, you must not use the live video features of the App.
Aura will not sell, license, or voluntarily share call recordings with third parties. Recordings may be disclosed to law enforcement only pursuant to a valid legal process (e.g., subpoena, court order, or emergency disclosure obligation).
By using Aura, you agree to use the Service lawfully and in accordance with these Terms and our Community Guidelines. You agree that you will NOT:
The report system on Aura is a critical safety tool. Abuse of the reporting system — including filing false reports with knowledge that no violation occurred — is a violation of these Terms and may result in account suspension or termination. We take both safety enforcement and reporting integrity seriously.
Aura uses a progressive enforcement system. Violations of our Community Guidelines result in strikes against your account. Strikes accumulate over time but expire after two (2) months of good standing (no new strikes earned). Our enforcement tiers are as follows:
| Strike | Consequence | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Strike 1 | 24-Hour Suspension | Bullying · Not showing face · Excessive trolling · Catfishing profile picture |
| Strike 2 | 7-Day Suspension | Racial slurs · Sexual slurs |
| Strike 3 | 1-Month Suspension | Any combination of prior violations resulting in a third strike |
| Strike 4 | Permanent Ban | Nudity or simulated sexual actions · Violence or credible threats · Scamming · Hacking or exploiting the platform |
Certain violations (nudity, sexual content, violence, threats, hacking, scamming) may result in immediate permanent ban without prior strikes at Aura's sole discretion. Aura reserves the right to modify enforcement determinations based on the specifics of each reported incident and the results of call recording review.
