Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of YourContractGuard (the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

1. Not legal advice

YourContractGuard is a decision-support tool. The analysis it produces is not legal advice, does not create an attorney-client relationship, and should not be the sole basis for a binding legal decision. For anything consequential — lease signing, employment contracts, commercial agreements — consult a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction.

2. Who can use the Service

You must be at least 16 years old and legally capable of entering into a contract. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements and that any contract you upload is yours to upload or you have permission to analyze it.

3. Your account

You're responsible for:

• Keeping your credentials confidential.
• All activity that occurs under your account.
• Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access.

You may close your account at any time from your dashboard.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Upload documents you have no right to upload.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, de-compile, or circumvent the Service.
• Use the Service to harm, harass, defraud, or spam others.
• Use automated means (scrapers, bots) beyond our documented API, or exceed your plan's rate limits.
• Resell, relabel, or white-label the Service without an Enterprise agreement.

5. Subscriptions & billing

• The Free plan is available without payment and is limited to the analyses-per-month stated on the pricing page.
• Paid plans (Starter and Pro) are billed monthly or yearly through Stripe. Your card is charged at the start of each billing cycle. You can cancel or switch plans at any time from the Billing tab in your dashboard; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current cycle.
• Enterprise plans are governed by a separate order form. The Enterprise order form takes precedence over these Terms where they conflict.
• Prices are shown in the currency displayed at checkout and exclude VAT / other taxes unless stated. We may adjust pricing with 30 days' notice.
• Refunds are handled case by case. If you think you were billed incorrectly, email billing within 60 days.

6. Content ownership

You retain all rights to the contracts you upload. By using the Service you grant us a narrow, time-limited licence to process those contracts solely to produce the analysis you requested and store the result in your account. We do not claim any ownership over your content.

7. Service availability & changes

We aim for high availability but do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may change, add, or remove features with reasonable notice. We won't delete your data without prior notice except when legally required.

8. Intellectual property

All rights to the Service's software, design, and trademarks belong to us or our licensors. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership to you. You may, however, use screenshots of your own analyses for any lawful purpose.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, our total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages. This section does not limit liability that cannot legally be limited (e.g., death or personal injury caused by negligence, or intentional misconduct).

11. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify us against third-party claims arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Service, except to the extent caused by our breach.

12. Termination

You can terminate by closing your account. We can terminate or suspend your account for material breach of these Terms, illegal activity, or if continued service creates a legal or security risk. On termination we'll help you export your data, unless prohibited by law.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by Turkish law, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Consumer-protection rights you may have under mandatory law (TR Law 6502, EU Directive 2011/83, etc.) are unaffected.

14. Changes to these Terms

We'll notify registered users by email at least 14 days before any material change takes effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.

15. Contact

These Terms are a good-faith starting point and have not been reviewed by jurisdiction-specific counsel. Before onboarding paying customers at scale, have them adapted by qualified legal counsel.
