DYLD — Get Dialed Last updated: August 17, 2026
This page is published under California SB 243, which requires anyone operating an AI chat feature to say plainly that it is AI and to publish how it handles a user in crisis. It applies to everyone who uses DYLD, not only Californians.
The DYLD coach is artificial intelligence. It is not a person. No human reads your questions, and no human writes the answers.
The app says this on the coach screen itself, every time, and users under 18 see it by default.
The coach only knows what you have logged in DYLD. When you ask it a question, the app sends your recent training, your food numbers, your MIND check-ins, your journal entries from the last 7 days in your own words, your goals, and its own recent notes about you — so the answer fits your life instead of being generic.
None of it is stored. It exists for the length of one request. Details are in the Privacy Policy and the Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.
If you never open the coach, none of this is ever sent.
This is the part the law asks us to publish, and it is written the way it actually works in the code.
On every single request, the model is instructed — as a rule that overrides every other instruction it has — to raise a flag if your question or your journal describes:
The flag is deliberately narrow. A hard week, a low mood, stress, frustration or self-criticism do not trigger it, because a flag that fires on an ordinary bad day is a flag nobody reads.
The AI is taken out of the conversation entirely. It is not allowed to respond to a person in crisis, and this is enforced in three places:
We do this because an AI is the wrong thing to be talking to at that moment, and a generated answer would be worse than no answer.
The turn ends on the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 in the US — alongside the direction to contact your local emergency number. The same line is on the MIND breathing screen, permanently, not only during a flagged turn.
DYLD is not a crisis service and no one monitors it for emergencies. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number.
Normally the coach writes one line about what it learned from each exchange, and keeps it so it remembers you next time. On a flagged turn it writes nothing. Both the server and the app enforce this independently.
This is deliberate. Without it, a man's worst night becomes a permanent note about his character that resurfaces weeks later inside an answer about his bench press. That is the opposite of the point.
If you are under 18, the app reminds you to take a break after every 3 hours of continuous use, and tells you again that you are talking to AI.
If the coach produces something harmful, wrong, or unsafe, tell us: support@dyld.app. Include what you asked and what it said. We read every one of these.
