Terms of use
Last updated: 6 October 2026
The short version
- Sobrium is for adults. Do not use it if you are under 18.
- Sobrium is not a medical or emergency service. Nobody here is a clinician, and nobody is on duty.
- Write about your own experience. Don't describe how to use, don't make using look good, and don't put labels on other people.
Who we are
Sobrium ("we", "us"). You can reach us at info@sobrium.cloud.
Who can use Sobrium
You must be 18 or older. One account per person, and it is yours: don't share it, and don't use someone else's.
Not a medical service
Sobrium is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. What people write here is their own experience, not advice. For medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, talk to a healthcare professional.
Community rules
Sobrium works because people can say true things here without being judged or put at risk. These rules protect that.
- Speak from your own experience. "I", not "you should".
- No details of using. No doses, no methods, no where-to-get-it, even in a story about the past.
- Don't make using look good.
- No labels aimed at other people. What you call yourself is up to you.
- No harassment, threats or hate.
- Self-harm and suicide. You can talk about your own thoughts and feelings here. That is part of why this place exists. We remove: encouraging anyone to harm themselves; graphic descriptions or pictures of self-harm or suicide; methods or instructions; pacts and challenges; mocking or bullying people who have self-harmed, attempted or died by suicide.
- Keep other people private. Nothing that could identify someone else (a name, a place, a photo of them) unless they agreed.
- No advertising. That includes treatment centres, clinics, products and services.
- Don't pretend to be someone else.
- No sexual content, and nothing illegal.
What you post
What you write and the photos you add stay yours. By posting, you allow us to store them and show them to other members in the ways the app describes, only to run Sobrium. That permission ends when you delete them.
Your diary is not posted anywhere. Only you can read it.
How moderation works
- Before a photo is published, it is checked automatically for alcohol and drugs. A photo that looks like it has drugs in it is covered for everyone; one with alcohol is covered for members who chose not to see such pictures. Either can be uncovered with a tap. A profile picture with alcohol or drugs in it is not accepted.
- Any member can report a post or a reply, and block anyone. Blocking is silent: the other person is not told.
- Reports are reviewed by a person. Nothing is removed by an automatic decision about text.
- What can happen: nothing; a post or reply is hidden from other members; in the last resort, after repeated breaches, an account is limited or suspended.
- The feed is in time order, newest first. We do not promote posts by algorithm.
Deleting your account
You can delete your account at any time: in the app, You → Settings → Delete my account; or by writing to info@sobrium.cloud from the address you sign in with. Everything in the account is deleted (see deleting your account).
No guarantees
We work to keep Sobrium running and safe, but we cannot promise it will always be available or free of errors. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the law where you live.
Changes
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we tell you in the app before the change applies.
