By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and all policies referenced herein (including the Privacy Notice, Cookie Policy, and any Order Form, Data Processing Addendum ("DPA"), or Service Level Agreement ("SLA"), if applicable). If you are using the Service on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” refers to that entity.

2. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The most current version will be posted on our site. If a change is material, we will provide reasonable notice (e.g., via email or in-product). Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

3. Accounts & Eligibility

4. Orders, Plans, Free Trials

• Order Forms. Features, usage limits, fees, and term lengths may be set out in an Order Form or in-app plan selection.

• Free Trials & Beta. Trials and beta/preview features are provided AS IS without warranties or service commitments and may be changed or discontinued at any time.

5. Fees, Billing, Taxes, Renewals

• Fees. You agree to pay all fees described at checkout or in your Order Form. Prices are exclusive of taxes.

If your plan includes downloadable or exportable deliverables (e.g., reports, models, financial templates), fees become non‑refundable once such deliverables are downloaded or exported.

7. Customer Data & Content

9. Confidentiality

Each party may receive non‑public information from the other that is identified as confidential or should reasonably be understood to be confidential ("Confidential Information"). The receiving party will use the same degree of care it uses to protect its own similar information (but at least reasonable care) to protect Confidential Information and will use it only to perform under these Terms. Exclusions apply where information is public, independently developed without use of the discloser’s information, or received from a third party without duty of confidentiality. Either party may disclose Confidential Information if required by law with reasonable prior notice to the extent permitted.

10. Intellectual Property; Feedback

• Our IP. The Service (including software, models, workflows, interfaces, designs, and documentation) is owned by AgoraMaven or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. No rights are granted except as expressly stated.

• Restrictions. You will not remove proprietary notices, or use any trademarks, service marks, or logos without our prior written permission.

• Feedback. You grant AgoraMaven a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty‑free license to use suggestions or feedback for any purpose without restriction or compensation (excluding your Confidential Information and Customer Data).

11. Third‑Party Services & Open Source

The Service may interoperate with third‑party services or include open‑source components subject to their own terms. Your use of third‑party services is governed by their terms, not ours. We are not responsible for third‑party services. Open‑source notices are available upon request.

12. Privacy & Data Protection

Please review our Privacy Policy to understand how we collect, use, and protect personal data. Where required, we offer a DPA with Standard Contractual Clauses for international transfers. Security measures include encryption in transit and at rest, role‑based access controls, logging, and regular testing.

13. Service Changes; Availability; Support

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (or any part) at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes in advance where feasible.

Support channels and response targets, if any, are described in your plan or Order Form.

• Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate if the other materially breaches and fails to cure within 30 days of notice (10 days for non‑payment).

• Effect. Upon termination, your access ends. We will retain Customer Data for 30 days to allow export upon request (unless legally required to retain longer), after which we may delete it from active systems and backups per our retention schedule. Fees are non‑refundable unless required by law.

17. Warranties & Disclaimers

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED, THE SERVICE AND ALL OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON‑INFRINGEMENT, AND THAT THE SERVICE OR OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE, ERROR‑FREE, OR UNINTERRUPTED.

19. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless AgoraMaven and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; (c) Customer Data (including alleged infringement or misuse); or (d) your reliance on outputs without appropriate professional review.

Optional IP Indemnity (Enterprise Plans). If expressly included in an Order Form, AgoraMaven will defend you against third‑party claims alleging that the Service (excluding Customer Data or third‑party services) infringes intellectual property rights, and will pay damages finally awarded, provided you promptly notify us, give us sole control of the defense, and provide reasonable cooperation. Our obligations do not apply to claims arising from combinations not provided by us, modifications not made by us, or use in violation of these Terms. If infringement is found, we may procure the right for you to continue using the Service, modify it, or terminate the affected features with a pro‑rated refund of prepaid, unused fees.

20. Dispute Resolution; Governing Law

• Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict‑of‑laws rules.

• Arbitration. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The seat of arbitration will be Wilmington, Delaware, and the language will be English.

• Class Action/Jury Waiver. You and AgoraMaven waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.

• Injunctive Relief. Either party may seek temporary or permanent injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property or Confidential Information.

• Opt‑Out. You may opt out of arbitration by emailing hello@agoramaven.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, account email, and a clear request to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue will be the state and federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and the parties consent to personal jurisdiction and waive any objection to inconvenient forum.

We aim to make the Service accessible. If you encounter accessibility issues, contact hello@agoramaven.com.

22. Notices

Notices to AgoraMaven must be sent to hello@agoramaven.com and to our registered address (set forth in our Privacy Notice). We may provide notices to you via email, in‑product messages, or your account address.

23. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent, except to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets, provided the assignee agrees in writing to be bound by these Terms. We may assign these Terms without restriction.

24. Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for delays or failures due to events beyond its reasonable control (e.g., acts of God, labor disputes, internet failures, denial‑of‑service attacks, or governmental actions).

25. Miscellaneous

These Terms (together with referenced policies and any Order Form, DPA, or SLA) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements on the subject matter. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be replaced with a valid provision that most closely reflects the intent; the remainder remains in effect. No waiver is effective unless in writing. The parties are independent contractors. There are no third‑party beneficiaries. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive (including 7–11 and 16–25).
