Terms of Service

1. 1. Eligibility and Accounts

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. You agree to provide accurate account information, keep it current, and maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

2. 2. The Service

AI Franchises provides turnkey business blueprints and an AI workforce that can perform marketing, sales, checkout, invoicing, support, and fulfilment tasks for your franchise as you configure and direct. You choose your niche, brand, offers, and policies, and you remain the owner and operator of your franchise.

We may modify, add, or discontinue features from time to time. We will give reasonable notice of changes that materially reduce core functionality of the Service.

3. 3. Your Responsibilities as Owner

You are responsible for your franchise's offers, pricing, claims, customer commitments, and compliance with laws applicable to your business, including consumer protection, advertising, privacy, licensing, and tax laws in the jurisdictions where you operate.

You are responsible for reviewing and configuring approval settings for your AI workforce. While we design the Service with guardrails, you agree to monitor your franchise's activity and promptly correct anything that does not meet your standards or legal obligations.

4. 4. Fees, Billing, and Access

The Service is offered on a revenue-share and/or usage basis, with a free tier subject to limits we publish. Applicable rates are displayed in your dashboard before charges apply. Invoices are issued every five days and are due upon issuance unless your dashboard states otherwise.

If an invoice becomes past due, we may restrict access to your franchise and the Service until the outstanding balance is paid in full, at which point access will be restored. Further details are set out in our Billing & Refund Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

5. 5. Content and Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of the content, brand assets, and data you provide to the Service ("Your Content"). You grant AI Franchises a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, process, reproduce, and display Your Content solely to provide and improve the Service.

The Service, including its software, blueprints, design, and documentation, is owned by AI Franchises and protected by intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service for your franchise. Output generated by the Service for your franchise may be used by you for your business purposes.

6. 6. Acceptable Use

You agree to comply with our Acceptable Use Policy. We may suspend or terminate access to the Service if we reasonably believe your use violates that policy, these Terms, or applicable law, or poses a risk to the Service, other users, or the public.

7. 7. No Earnings Guarantee

AI Franchises does not guarantee any level of revenue, profit, or business success. Any figures, examples, or stories presented by AI Franchises are illustrative only. Your results depend on many factors, including your niche, market conditions, decisions, and effort. Please review our Earnings Disclaimer.

8. 8. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AI FRANCHISES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO AI FRANCHISES IN THE THREE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

9. 9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless AI Franchises and its affiliates, officers, and employees from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your franchise's operations, Your Content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

10. 10. Termination, Governing Law, and Contact

You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your account for material breach of these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination, including payment obligations, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnification, will survive.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles, and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located there, unless applicable law requires otherwise. We may update these Terms with notice; continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. Questions may be sent to legal@aifranchises.ai.
