Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By creating an account or using SpokenPrint ("Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service.

2. Acceptable Use

You may use SpokenPrint to transform spoken content you own, are authorized to use, or have valid license to. You may not upload content that infringes others' rights, contains instructions for illegal activity, depicts minors in sexual content, or incites violence against specific groups.

3. Rights & Ownership

You retain 100% ownership of the manuscripts produced from your content. SpokenPrint claims no copyright, license, or right of future use in any work product delivered to you.

By submitting source material, you represent that you hold the rights to do so or have valid authorization. You agree to indemnify SpokenPrint against claims arising from content you submit without authorization.

4. AI Processing & Disclosure

SpokenPrint uses AI models to produce written manuscripts from your spoken content. Every export includes an AI-disclosure page consistent with publishing-platform requirements (Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Apple Books). You are responsible for ensuring disclosures remain accurate in any modified manuscript.

Copyright registrability is not guaranteed. SpokenPrint does not guarantee that any specific output can be registered for copyright. The U.S. Copyright Office evaluates AI-assisted works case by case, and registrability depends on the human authorship in your project.

The manuscript is a human-directed work: you approve the structure, accept or revise each generated section, and decide what to publish. You are responsible for reviewing, editing, fact-checking, and clearing the final output before publication.

5. Payment & Refunds

One-time payment per project. Within 48 hours of payment with less than 5% of paid content accessed, refunds are automatic. Within 7 days with less than 25% accessed and no exports completed, refunds remain available. Beyond 7 days, refunds are reviewed case-by-case.

Manuscripts and exports are digital goods: once you have exported a manuscript, that project is no longer eligible for a refund. We store your payment method with our payment processor (Stripe) for your convenience and never charge a stored card without your explicit, in-session confirmation.

6. Service Availability

We aim for high availability but make no uptime guarantees. Generation pipelines depend on third-party AI providers; brief outages may occur and are handled via model fallback chains described in our technical documentation.

7. Account Termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with notice except where immediate action is required to address rights violations, fraud, or other harm.

8. Warranty Disclaimer, Liability & Governing Law

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that output is accurate, error-free, or fit for publication — see §4 on your review responsibilities and copyright registrability.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SpokenPrint's liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the affected project.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Summit County, Ohio, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

9. Changes

We may update these terms; material changes are notified by email at least 30 days before taking effect.
