Terms of Service
1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you,” “your,” or “Subscriber”) and Donna, operated by Nicholas Mehdi (“Donna,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By creating an account, subscribing to our service, or using the Donna application or website located at calldonna.co (“Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms in full.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via email or in-app notice at least 30 days before taking effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
2. Description of Service
Donna is an AI-powered companion calling service. Through the Donna mobile application and web platform, caregivers (“Subscribers”) can schedule automated, personalized phone calls from an AI assistant (“Donna”) to their elderly loved ones (“Call Recipients”). The Service includes:
- Scheduled AI-generated phone calls to Call Recipients
- Personalized conversation based on preferences, interests, and reminders configured by the Subscriber
- Post-call summaries and transcripts delivered to the Subscriber
- Missed call alerts and call history
- A preview phone line for prospective users to experience a sample call without an account
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. By subscribing, you represent that:
- You are at least 18 years of age
- You have the legal authority to agree to these Terms
- You have obtained appropriate consent from the Call Recipient (or their legal guardian or authorized representative) to receive AI-generated phone calls from Donna
- All information you provide is accurate, current, and complete
4. Account Registration and Security
To access the Service, you must create an account and provide accurate information including your name, email address, and payment details. You are solely responsible for:
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Notifying us immediately at hello@calldonna.com if you suspect unauthorized access
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe have been compromised or are being used in violation of these Terms.
5. Consent for AI-Generated Calls (TCPA Compliance)
The Service uses artificial intelligence and automated telephone dialing technology to place calls to Call Recipients. Under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), 47 U.S.C. § 227, prior express consent is required before placing automated calls to any telephone number.
By subscribing to Donna and providing a Call Recipient's phone number, you expressly represent and warrant that:
- You have obtained the Call Recipient's prior express consent (or the consent of their legal guardian or authorized representative) to receive AI-generated, automated telephone calls from Donna at the number provided
- You have informed the Call Recipient that the calls will be placed by an AI system, not a human
- You have the legal authority to provide this consent on behalf of the Call Recipient
- You will promptly notify Donna if the Call Recipient revokes their consent or requests that calls cease
You agree to indemnify and hold Donna harmless from any claims, damages, or penalties arising from your failure to obtain proper consent. Call Recipients (or their Subscriber) may request to stop receiving calls at any time by contacting hello@calldonna.com or by managing settings in the app.

- The Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure
- AI-generated calls will be perfectly accurate, appropriate, or free from errors in every instance
