Terms of Service

1. Agreement and eligibility

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the websites, applications, and related services provided by Blackstar Computers, Inc. (“Blackstar,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) (the “Services”). By accepting these Terms or using the Services, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter this agreement to use the AI Services. If you act for an organization, you must have authority to bind it. A separate written agreement controls to the extent it expressly conflicts with these Terms. Our Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information.

2. Accounts and responsibilities

Provide accurate information, protect your account credentials, and notify us of suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for the activity you authorize and for having the rights and permissions needed to provide content or grant access to accounts and devices. Do not share another person’s information or recordings unlawfully.

3. License and ownership

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable right to use the Services for lawful personal or internal business purposes. Blackstar and its licensors retain ownership of the Services and associated intellectual property, except for rights expressly granted here.

Applications distributed through a marketplace are also subject to the applicable marketplace license and rules, including Apple’s standard app license where applicable. These Terms do not limit mandatory marketplace or consumer rights.

4. AI and third-party services

AI-generated results may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for a particular purpose. Review important results before relying on or sharing them. The Services are not an emergency service or a substitute for qualified professional judgment, and must not be used as the sole basis for decisions materially affecting another person’s rights.

When you give instructions or authorize a connection, you permit us to process relevant information and perform actions within the scope of that authorization. You are responsible for providing appropriate limits and reviewing any requested approvals. Actions already completed may not be reversible.

Third-party services and transactions are governed by their own terms, prices, and policies. Unless expressly stated otherwise, Blackstar is not the seller or provider of those services and does not guarantee their performance.

5. Your content

You retain your rights in content you provide. You grant us permission to host, process, transmit, and display that content as reasonably needed to provide the Services, fulfill your requests, provide support, protect the Services, and meet legal obligations, including through our service providers. This permission is subject to the Privacy Policy and your applicable choices.

As between you and Blackstar, we assign to you any rights we may have in generated outputs to the extent permitted by law. This does not transfer rights in our technology or third-party material, or guarantee that outputs are unique, protectable, or free of others’ rights. You are responsible for your use of content and outputs.

Optional model training requires separate consent and is limited to the purpose and data covered by that consent. Accepting these Terms does not grant broader training permission. Feedback may be used to improve the Services without compensation, subject to the Privacy Policy.

6. Fees and subscriptions

Prices, billing intervals, taxes, and applicable plan conditions are disclosed when offered or at checkout. By purchasing a recurring subscription, you authorize the disclosed recurring charges until cancellation. Payment failures may interrupt paid access.

You may cancel through the available billing controls or contact us for assistance. Cancel before renewal to avoid the next charge. Ordinary cancellation preserves access through the paid period. Uninstalling an application or signing out does not cancel a subscription.

Cancellation does not automatically entitle you to a prorated refund, except where required by law or the applicable offer. Contact team@blackstar.inc about billing errors or refunds. Marketplace purchases are subject to the marketplace’s payment and refund procedures.

We will provide appropriate notice and obtain any required consent before changing future subscription prices or material terms. You may cancel before a change takes effect. Changes do not retroactively alter completed charges or expand a training consent.

7. Acceptable use

Do not use the Services unlawfully or to infringe others’ rights, commit fraud, harass or exploit others, distribute malicious software, obtain unauthorized access, or conduct unlawful surveillance. Do not interfere with the Services, evade usage limits, or bypass security, permission, or safety controls.

Do not extract nonpublic components or model parameters or reverse engineer the Services except where applicable law permits. Comply with applicable export controls, sanctions, and third-party restrictions. We may refuse or stop requests that violate these Terms or present a material legal, safety, or security risk.

8. Availability and termination

We may update, limit, suspend, or discontinue features. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability or successful completion of every request. We will honor applicable notice, cancellation, and refund rights for material changes affecting paid services.

You may stop using the Services and request account deletion at any time. We may restrict or terminate access for material violations, nonpayment, security threats, or legal requirements, with notice and an opportunity to resolve the issue where reasonable and lawful.

Termination does not undo completed actions or eliminate accrued obligations. Retention and deletion are governed by the Privacy Policy. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination remain effective.

9. Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the Services and outputs are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, or uninterrupted operation. Nothing in these Terms excludes mandatory consumer guarantees, statutory remedies, or obligations that cannot legally be excluded.

10. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Blackstar and its suppliers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or lost profits, arising from these Terms or the Services. Blackstar’s total liability will not exceed the greater of US$100 or the amount you paid Blackstar for the Services in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

These limits do not apply to fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or liability and remedies that applicable law does not allow us to exclude or limit.

11. General terms and contact

We may update these Terms prospectively with reasonable notice of material changes and consent where required by law. If you do not agree to an update, you may stop using the Services and cancel your subscription.

If a provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains effective to the extent permitted by law. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms and any applicable additional agreement govern your use of the Services, subject to mandatory legal protections.

Applicable law determines the governing law and competent courts. These Terms do not require binding arbitration or waive class-action rights. Contacting us about a dispute does not limit your legal rights or change a legal deadline.
