1. Definitions
Throughout these Terms (and our Privacy Policy and any pricing pages), the following capitalised terms have the meanings given here. They are defined once so that pricing and feature descriptions can use them consistently.
2. Eligibility and Account
To use the Service, you must be able to form a binding contract with us under applicable law. The Service is not directed to, and may not be used by, children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the Service only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.
You create your Account by signing in through a supported third-party identity provider via our authentication partner Supabase. You agree to (a) provide accurate information, (b) keep your identity-provider credentials and your access to that account secure, (c) not share your Account or transfer it to anyone else, (d) be responsible for all activity that occurs under your Account, and (e) promptly notify us of any suspected unauthorised use.
You may not use the Service if we have previously terminated your Account or banned you from the Service, or if you are barred from receiving the Service under the laws of your jurisdiction.
3. Licence to Use the Service
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for your own internal business or personal purposes during the term of your Account. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Slato and our licensors.
4. Your Content and Output
Ownership of User Content
You retain all rights you have in your User Content. You grant Slato a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to host, store, copy, transmit, display, modify (as needed for formatting, translation, indexing, and similar technical purposes), and otherwise process your User Content solely as necessary to operate, secure, maintain, and improve the Service for you, to deliver the Service’s features (including by passing your User Content to third-party AI providers and supporting tools as described in our Privacy Policy), and to comply with law.
Output
As between you and Slato, and to the maximum extent permitted by law and by the underlying AI providers’ terms, we assign to you our rights, if any, in the Output produced from your User Content, so you may use, edit, present, export, publish, and distribute that Output for any lawful purpose. You are responsible for the Output you choose to use.
You acknowledge that (a) Output is generated by statistical models applied to your inputs and to context retrieved by the Service, and identical or substantially similar Output may be produced for other users from comparable inputs; (b) Output may incorporate or resemble pre-existing material, and we make no representation or warranty that any Output is original, non-infringing, or free of third-party rights; and (c) the Service’s rights in Output are limited by the rights granted to us by our AI providers, which may change over time.
Your responsibility for User Content
You represent and warrant that you have all rights, licences, consents, and permissions necessary to submit your User Content to the Service and to allow us to process it as described in these Terms and the Privacy Policy, and that your User Content and your use of the Output do not and will not violate any law or any third party’s rights (including intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, contractual, or confidentiality rights).
Feedback
If you send us suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or other feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to use that feedback for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you.
5. AI Output and Accuracy
You are solely responsible for reviewing, fact-checking, editing, and approving any Output before presenting it, sharing it, exporting it, publishing it, or otherwise relying on it. We do not pre-screen Output for accuracy, completeness, suitability, or compliance with any standard, and we do not endorse or vouch for any Output. Where the Service provides citations, links, or sources, those references are provided for convenience only and may be incorrect or out of date.
You are also solely responsible for complying with the disclosure, attribution, and labelling rules that apply to AI-generated content in your jurisdiction, your industry, your platform, and your audience.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to:
- Use the Service in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right;
- Submit User Content or generate Output that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, threatening, hateful, discriminatory, sexually explicit involving minors, or that incites violence;
- Use the Service to create, promote, or distribute malware, phishing pages, fraud, scams, spam, deceptive deepfakes, election or health disinformation, or other content designed to mislead;
- Infringe or misappropriate any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, moral right, publicity right, or privacy right of any person;
- Upload or process personal information about others without a lawful basis to do so;
- Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt, or otherwise derive the source code, models, weights, prompts, or trade secrets of the Service or its components, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits;
- Use the Service to develop, train, fine-tune, or benchmark a competing product, model, or service;
- Resell, sublicense, rent, lease, or otherwise commercially exploit the Service except as expressly permitted by your Plan;
- Use any robot, scraper, crawler, or other automated means to access the Service or extract Output, except as expressly authorised by us in writing;
- Circumvent, disable, or interfere with security, rate-limiting, billing, attribution, or other technical or contractual restrictions of the Service;
- Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or any related system without our prior written permission;
- Impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the Service or its infrastructure, or interfere with the integrity or performance of the Service or any other user’s use of it;
- Misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity, or impersonate Slato or anyone else;
- Use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our or our providers’ systems.
We may, but are not obligated to, monitor or review User Content and Output. We may remove, disable access to, or refuse to process any User Content or Output that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable, harmful, or unlawful, with or without notice.
7. Plans, Pricing, Credits, and Billing
Plans
We offer the Service under one or more Plans. A Plan may take the form of (a) a recurring Subscription that grants Account-level access and a periodic allowance of Generations, Edits, Exports, or other usage; (b) a Credit balance that is consumed as you use metered features (such as Generations and Edits), at consumption rates published on our pricing page or inside the Service; or (c) a combination of both. Pricing, included usage, consumption rates, feature availability, and other Plan terms are described on our pricing page and may change as described in Section 7(e).
Payment processor
Payments are processed by Stripe. By providing payment information, you authorise us and Stripe to charge the payment method on file for all amounts due under your Plan, including recurring Subscription fees, Credit purchases, applicable taxes, and any overage or one-off charges. You agree to keep your payment information current and to be responsible for all charges incurred under your Account.
Recurring billing and renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period for the same term and at the then-current price unless you cancel before the renewal date. You may cancel future renewals at any time from your Account; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period, and you retain access through that period.
Credits
Credits are prepaid usage units. They are consumed when you trigger metered actions; the per-action cost may differ between Generations, Edits, Exports, and other features, and may change for future actions on prior notice. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, are not redeemable for money, and may expire on the date stated at the time of purchase or, if no date is stated, twelve (12) months after purchase. Unused Credits do not roll over beyond their stated expiry.
Pricing changes
We may change prices, included usage, consumption rates, and other Plan terms from time to time. For a recurring Subscription, any change to the price or to the included usage of your current Plan will take effect at the start of your next renewal period after we provide you notice (for example, by email or in-app notice). If you do not accept the change, your sole remedy is to cancel before the change takes effect.
Taxes
All fees are exclusive of taxes, levies, and duties, unless stated otherwise. You are responsible for paying any taxes (including any value-added, sales, or use taxes) associated with your use of the Service, except for taxes based on Slato’s net income.
No refunds
All sales are final. Fees, Subscription charges, and Credit purchases are non-refundable, except where required by applicable law or expressly stated otherwise in writing by us. Cancelling a Subscription does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid; you retain access through the end of the current paid period. Consumed Credits and consumed usage are not refundable. We are not obligated to provide refunds or credits for partial periods of service, downgrades, unused features, downtime, errors, or AI-generated Output that fails to meet your expectations.
Failed payments and overdue amounts
If a payment fails, we may suspend or downgrade your Account, retry the charge, and/or terminate your Subscription. You are responsible for all reasonable costs of collection of overdue amounts, including attorneys’ fees.
8. Third-Party Services
The Service depends on, integrates with, or links to third-party services, including (without limitation) Supabase (authentication and storage), Stripe (payments), Anthropic (AI models), and providers used for hosting, content delivery, error reporting, analytics, email delivery, and web search. Your use of any third-party service is governed by that third party’s own terms and privacy policy, and we are not responsible for the acts, omissions, content, security, availability, performance, or pricing of any third-party service. We may change or replace third-party providers without notice.
9. Changes to the Service
We are continuously evolving the Service. We may add, modify, discontinue, suspend, or remove features, models, integrations, Plans, or other aspects of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any change, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service or any feature.
10. Suspension and Termination
You may terminate these Terms at any time by closing your Account. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Service or your Account at any time, with or without notice, if (a) we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law; (b) we are required to do so by law, regulation, or a binding governmental request; (c) we reasonably believe your activity poses a security, fraud, abuse, or reputational risk to us, our users, or third parties; (d) you fail to pay amounts due; or (e) we discontinue the Service in whole or for your jurisdiction.
On termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately, and we may delete your Account, User Content, and Output in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 1, 4, 5, 6, 7(g), 11–19) will survive.
11. Our Intellectual Property
The Service, including all software, models (insofar as we own or licence them), source code, designs, user interfaces, layouts, templates, themes, copy, documentation, names, logos, and trademarks (including “Slato,” “Slato,” and our wordmarks and graphics), is owned by Slato App or our licensors and is protected by intellectual-property and other laws. Except for the limited licence granted to you in Section 3, these Terms do not transfer to you any right, title, or interest in or to the Service or our intellectual property.
12. Disclaimers
Without limiting the foregoing, we do not warrant that (a) the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; (b) defects will be corrected; (c) the Service or any server that makes it available is free of viruses, worms, or other harmful components; (d) Output will be accurate, reliable, complete, current, original, non-infringing, or fit for any particular purpose; (e) any data you submit will not be lost or corrupted; or (f) the Service will meet your requirements or expectations.
You assume all responsibility and risk for your use of the Service and the Output and for any decisions you make based on the Output. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you; in that case, the excluded warranties apply only to the minimum extent required by law.
13. Limitation of Liability
- In no event will Slato, our affiliates, or our licensors and service providers be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, business opportunities, anticipated savings, use, data, content, or content accuracy, however caused and under any theory of liability (whether contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise), even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
- Our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, in the aggregate across all claims, will not exceed the greater of (a) one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100) and (b) the total fees you actually paid to us for the Service during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the liability.
The exclusions and limitations in this Section apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. They reflect a fundamental allocation of risk between you and us and form an essential basis of the bargain. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the smallest extent permitted by law.
14. Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Slato, our affiliates, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers from and against all claims, demands, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to (a) your User Content; (b) your use or misuse of the Service or the Output; (c) your violation of these Terms or any applicable law; (d) your violation of any third-party right (including intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, contractual, or confidentiality rights); or (e) any dispute between you and any other person arising from your use of the Service or the Output. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with our defence of that claim.
15. Confidentiality of Pre-Release Features
From time to time we may make beta, preview, or experimental features available to you. These features are provided “as is,” may be changed or discontinued without notice, and any non-public information about them is our confidential information. You agree not to disclose, publish, benchmark, or share details about such features without our prior written consent.
16. Export, Sanctions, and Government Use
You may not access or use the Service if you are located in, ordinarily resident in, or organised under the laws of any country or region subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions, or if you are on any restricted-party list maintained by the U.S. government or any other government with jurisdiction over Slato. You represent and warrant that you are not such a person and that you will not use the Service to develop, design, manufacture, or produce missiles, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons.
17. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver
Informal resolution
Before filing a claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us at the address set out in Section 21, with a description of the dispute and the relief you seek. We will try to resolve the dispute informally within sixty (60) days. If we are unable to do so, either party may bring a formal proceeding as set forth below.
Binding arbitration
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service that is not resolved informally will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by a reputable arbitration provider mutually agreed by the parties (or, failing agreement, by JAMS) under that provider’s then-current rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language, in a venue convenient for both parties (which may be remote), by a single arbitrator. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Class-action and jury-trial waiver
You and Slato agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party’s claims, and may not preside over any form of representative proceeding. You and Slato waive any right to a jury trial.
Exceptions
Either party may (a) bring an individual claim in small-claims court for disputes within that court’s jurisdiction, and (b) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its intellectual-property rights or confidential information.
Severability of this Section
If the class-action waiver is found to be unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, then that claim or remedy (and only that claim or remedy) will be severed from arbitration and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction; the remaining claims will continue in arbitration.
18. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States of America and, to the extent state law applies, by the laws of the state in which Slato App is then domiciled, in each case without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 17, the state and federal courts located in that jurisdiction will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute not subject to arbitration, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in those courts.
19. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If the changes are material, we will provide additional notice (for example, by email or via an in-app notice) before they take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of an updated version of these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and may close your Account.
20. General
Entire agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any pricing pages, order forms, or supplemental terms expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Slato regarding the Service and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements between us on that subject.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable while preserving the parties’ intent.
No waiver
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision. No waiver is effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorised representative of Slato.
Assignment
You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any of your rights or obligations under them, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms in whole or in part. Any prohibited assignment is null and void.
Force majeure
We will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, civil unrest, network or power outages, denial-of-service attacks, third-party service failures, or governmental orders.
Relationship of the parties
You and Slato are independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship between us, and neither party has any authority to bind the other.
Notices
We may give notices to you by email to the address associated with your Account, by posting on the Service, or by other reasonable means. You may give us notice using the contact details in Section 21.
Headings
Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
