Content Ownership and License

Your Content

  • You retain all rights to the original text you submit for translation
  • By submitting content, you grant us a license to process it using third-party AI services
  • You represent that you have the right to submit and translate the content

Translations

  • Translations generated by AI are provided "as is" for your use
  • We do not claim ownership of translations
  • You are responsible for ensuring translations do not infringe on third-party rights

Third-Party AI Providers

The Service uses third-party AI providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Groq, OpenRouter) to generate translations. When you use the Service:

  • Your translation requests are sent to these providers
  • These providers process your content according to their own terms and privacy policies
  • We are not responsible for the actions or policies of these third-party providers
  • Service availability may be affected by third-party provider outages or API changes

Fees and Payment

  • Basic access to the Service may be provided free of charge
  • We reserve the right to introduce paid tiers or usage limits at any time
  • You will be notified of any pricing changes with at least 30 days notice

Reasonable Refund Policy

We believe in fair treatment. If you are not satisfied with the Service, you may request a refund within 14 days of your purchase. Refunds are generally granted if:

  • The Service did not work as described
  • You experienced significant technical issues that we could not resolve
  • You accidentally purchased the wrong plan

We reserve the right to deny refunds in cases of suspected abuse or if you have used a significant portion of your credits.

Refund Calculation

Refunds are not automatic and are issued at our sole discretion. If a refund is granted, the refund amount will be calculated as:

  • The total purchase price, MINUS
  • The value of any AI credits/tokens already consumed (calculated at our standard rate), AND
  • Non-refundable payment processing fees (typically ~2.9% + $0.30).

Example: If you pay $20, use $5 worth of AI credits, and request a refund, the maximum refund would be approximately $14.10 ($20 - $5 usage - $0.90 fees).
