- The Services are governed by the then-current version of the Agreement available on the Sites relevant to your Services. We recommend regularly checking for the most recent Agreement. We may modify the Agreement or any part thereof at our discretion from time to time without prior notice to you. When updated the new version instantly replaces all previous versions and becomes immediately effective and binding once it's posted on Sites relevant to your Services.

Access and Administration
- When signing up for the Services and throughout the term of this Agreement, you must provide and maintain true, accurate, current, and complete information as requested in connection with your access to and use of the Services.
- You remain liable for all uses and activities under the Services, resulting from access provided by you, directly or indirectly, whether such access or use is permitted by or in violation of this Agreement. If you re-assign the Services to another authorized entity or person, or appoint an authorized entity or person to act as an administrator of the Services. Such delegation does not relieve you of any contractual obligations under the Agreement.
- You are solely and strictly liable for Client Data and the consequences of using it through the Services, in any way. Furthermore, you are responsible for any activity that occurs under your Services and any act or omission by an Authorized-User and Guest-Users that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by you will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by you. You shall use reasonable efforts to make all Authorized Users aware of this Agreement’s provisions as applicable to such Authorized Users’ use of the Services and shall cause Authorized-Users and Guest-Users to comply with such provisions. You also agree not to access, or attempt to access, other Clients’ Services and/or any data of other Clients. You further agree and acknowledge that access to and the usage of the Services are subject to specific limits established by Text.
- The Services can be accessed solely by logging in to the Services on a single-session-per-user basis unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing. Each Client is assigned credentials for identifying and authenticating each Authorized-User in the Services (except where the Services do not require Authorized-Users), and access to the Services is restricted to the specified number of individual Authorized-Users and usage limits permitted under the Client’s Services. Additionally, the Client may authorize Guest-Users to access specific features of the Services under limited and conditional terms as defined in this Agreement. Accordingly, an individual Authorized-User or Guest-User may only maintain one active session at a time, and the individual login credentials shall only be used by one (1) designated individual Authorized-User or Guest-User and may not (i) be passed on or used by others or by multiple Authorized-Users or Guest-Users at the same time, or (ii) be shared or used by more than one Authorized-User or Guest-User. Simultaneous logins by the same user on multiple devices, browsers, or IP addresses are not permitted and shall be deemed excessive or abnormal use unless explicitly authorized by Text under the Client’s Services plan. An individual Authorized-User or Guest-User’s credentials may, however, be reassigned to a new individual replacing a former individual who no longer requires ongoing use of the Services or its specific features. New and/or additional Authorized-Users or Guest-Users, must be requested in writing (including electronically) by you to Text in advance so that individual login data can be provided to each new Authorized-User or Guest-User and, if necessary, the applicable fee adjusted accordingly. The Client, including its Authorized-Users and Guest-Users, is responsible for proper securing, storing, and maintaining the confidentiality of all login credentials and passwords used to access the Services. Text may monitor the number of Authorized-Users or and Guest-Users allowed under your Services, as well as your usage of the Services, to enforce such limits and ensure compliance with this Agreement. If you exceed the established limits, or if Text determines, in its sole discretion, that the usage under the Services, is excessive, abnormal or would adversely affect the operation of the Services, Text may: (i) charge you at the then-current list price for excess use; and/or (ii) immediately limit, suspend, terminate your Services or block access to the Services, or its part. Text may, at its sole discretion, provide advance notice before such actions, but is not obligated to do so. You shall be solely responsible for all costs, losses, and damages arising from such excessive or unauthorized usage, including any additional fees.
- The Services are not offered to anyone under sixteen (16) years old. Where parental or guardian consent is required due to legal age restrictions under applicable laws, you are solely responsible for ensuring that such consent is properly obtained and documented before using the Services or submitting any personal information. By accessing or using the Services in situations where such consent is legally required, you represent and warrant that valid and verifiable consent has been obtained in full compliance with applicable law and that such documentation will be provided toText upon request. In the event that it comes to our knowledge that a person under the above mentioned age is accessing or using the Services, with no liability whatsoever towards such person, we will prohibit and block such usage without any prior notice and we will make all efforts to promptly delete any related Client Data.
- You are also solely responsible for obtaining all authorizations, licenses and consents necessary, to make the Services available to End-Users and to process Client Data through the Services. When you provide any Client Data to the Services, you (whether you are the Client or the administrator operating on Client’s behalf) represent and warrant that you have full authority to provide us with such Client Data and its submission and use, as you authorize herein, will not violate (i) any applicable law, (ii) any third-party intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights, or (iii) any of your or third-party policies or terms governing your Client Data. Parties acknowledge and agree that Services shall be accessible from the moment the Client finalizes the signing up process, which commences data processing activities under your Services, consistent with the Data Processing Addendum. We collect, use and disclose Client Data, information related to the Services and any form of communication with Text in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which you acknowledge.
- The Services may display, embed, link to, or otherwise provide access to third-party websites, content, data, tools, software, applications (including open-source components) that you choose to connect (e.g., via plug-ins, APIs, or other integrations) or that Text includes as part of the Services experience (collectively, “Third‑Party Services”). Text does not author, own, or control Third-Party Services and makes no warranties, representations, or commitments regarding their accuracy, availability, security, legality, performance, or continued operability, and does not grant any rights in the content generated by them. Some Third-Party Services may automatically exchange, process, download, or upload data, including Client Data, as needed for their functionality or under their own terms. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Third-Party Services may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time without notice or liability, and that any AI‑generated or similar content they provide may be inaccurate, outdated, non‑unique, or identical to content provided to other Clients. You remain solely responsible for reviewing and verifying such content before relying on it. Please note that the Agreement does not govern Third-Party Services, and your right to access or use them is subject to any applicable acknowledgements, licence terms, terms/privacy policies of those providers. If you choose to enable or use any Third-Party Services, you do so at your own discretion and risk, and any interaction is exclusively between you and the applicable provider. Text disclaims any liability arising from your use of Third‑Party Services, including any disclosure, modification, or loss of Client Data. Where required, you are solely responsible for obtaining any End-Users' notices, consents, or other legal bases needed for data sharing with Third-Party Services. Questions, concerns, disputes, or support requests related to Third-Party Services must be directed to their respective providers. The inclusion or use of any Third-Party Services does not make them subprocessors engaged by Text for which Text remains responsible, and does not imply that the Services are “open source” or publicly available software, or that you receive any rights beyond those explicitly granted in the Agreement.
When setting up the Services, make sure all the info you provide about yourself is spot-on and up-to-date. You decide who operates the Services for you and on your behalf. Still, it's essential to note that you remain the contracting party tied to this Agreement.
You are responsible for ensuring that your Authorized-Users and Guest-Users use their login credentials properly and confidentially. We use login credentials to identify and authenticate Authorized-Users and Guest-Users in the Services. It is important that you protect your login credentials and not share them with others.
Our Services are 16+ only. This means that no one younger than 16 years of age can access or use the Services. If we find out that someone underage is doing so, we'll have to revoke their access and we reserve the right to delete their data.
You're responsible for ensuring that anyone using the Services – you, Authorized-Users, Guest-Users and End-Users – does so in line with the Agreement. This includes using our Services to store or transmit Client Data in a way that complies with the applicable laws and any agreements you may have with Authorized-Users, Guest-Users or End-Users. If you operate in a regulated industry or are subject to specific compliance requirements or restrictions, please note that Text does not tailor the Services to meet such individual regulatory framework. It's up to you to determine whether and how the Services align with your obligations. By using the Services, you acknowledge that compliance with such requirements is your responsibility.
You acknowledge that you are responsible under the Agreement for ensuring you have the appropriate legal basis, e.g., consents or required notices from End-Users to allow Text to process Client Data on your behalf. This includes, but is not limited to, any data submitted, stored, sent or received via Services by the Client or its End-Users. If you don't have the right to collect, process and share that data with us, we can’t be responsible for the consequences, so it's important to ensure you’ve done the necessary due diligence.
When integrating our Services onto your website or platform, inform your End-Users that their data and conversations may be stored within the Services as part of their interactions with you.
Text offers integrations or add-ons (so-called Supporting Applications) that operate under their own terms and policies, independent of the Agreement. If you have some questions or issues related to Supporting Applications, they should be addressed directly with their providers.
Just something to bear in mind, Supporting Applications are optional and not part of our Services, and as such, we cannot vouch for their availability, continuity, or performance over time.

Your data, your rights with a few boundaries.
The info you submit, and what the system uniquely generates from it, is yours. Others may receive similar Output from similar Input. So while you can use your Output freely, it's not guaranteed to be unique or exclusively yours. If your Output includes third-party content (e.g., copyrighted material), it’s your responsibility to ensure you're not violating anyone's rights or any applicable laws.
Feedback is Welcome (And Ours to Use)
Got a cool idea to improve our product? That’s awesome — and by sharing it, you allow us to use it however we want (forever, worldwide, and royalty-free). That includes improving our Services and Sites.
We Own the Tech
We built the engine - the AI models, algorithms, system data, and infrastructure - and we’re keeping it. You get access, but not ownership. You can use the Services, but you don’t get rights to our backend, tools, or underlying software or anything within the so-called Text Materials.
Keep It Secret, Keep It Safe If we share confidential stuff with you (like internal docs, security info, or roadmap plans), please:
- Don’t share it with others without our written permission
- Only use it to work with us, not for any other purpose
- Protect it like you would your own valuable business info
If a law or court requires you to disclose our confidential info, let us know first (if you’re allowed) and help us respond appropriately.
Even after our agreement ends, your confidentiality duties continue for 3 more years.
Fees and Payment Terms
- Access to the Services is provided through subscription-based plans with automatically recurring payments based on the selected billing period (“Subscription”) and, where applicable, on a pay per-usage basis. Subscriptions and any usage-based fees are payable in accordance with the pricing and payment terms in effect at the time the payment becomes due.
- You agree to pay all applicable fees in accordance with the then-current pricing listed on the Sites for the selected Services, unless otherwise agreed in an applicable Order Form. Any promotions, discounts, or bonuses apply only during the Subscription Period in which they are granted and may not carry over upon renewal. Upon automatic renewal or extension, standard rates will apply unless otherwise agreed in writing.
- Text may offer limited access to certain Services free of charge for a limited period, depending on the specific offering described on the relevant Services’ Site. The scope and duration of such free access may vary by offering.
- Payment may be made by credit card, debit card, or other means supported by Text or its third-party payment processor. By purchasing a Subscription, you agree our third-party payment processor may store and continue billing your selected payment method (e.g. credit card) to ensure uninterrupted access to the Services, and we may calculate taxes payable by you based on the billing information that you provide us at the time of purchase. You acknowledge and agree to receive all invoices and payment-related notifications in electronic form, stored and made accessible through the Services.
- Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, Subscriptions are billed on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”) based on your selection. By purchasing a Subscription, You agree that it will automatically renew for successive terms of equal initial Subscription terms, and you will be charged unless your Subscription is canceled by you or Text before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next Billing Cycle.
- Regardless of the Billing Cycle, no refunds, credits or set-offs will be issued for unused Services, early termination or termination due to your breach of this Agreement or applicable law, or any other reason prior to the end of the Subscription Period. This strict no-refund policy ensures consistent treatment of all Clients and helps maintain low administrative overhead.

- The Client is solely responsible for providing and maintaining complete,accurate and up-to-date billing and contact information and must promptly notify Text of any changes.
- Text reserves the right to adjust its fees at its sole discretion, with prior notice. Fee adjustments may reflect changes in the scope, features, or capabilities of the Services.
- Unless expressly stated otherwise, all fees are exclusive of taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature (collectively, “Taxes”), including but not limited to, domestic or foreign-imposed by any federal, state, or local tax authority with respect thereto including, for example, value-added tax, sales tax, use tax or withholding taxes. You are responsible for paying all such Taxes associated with your purchases, except where legally required to be collected by Text. All fees must be paid in full, without counterclaim or set-off, and without any deduction or withholding on any grounds whatsoever, except as required by applicable law. If any deduction or withholding is required by law, you agree to gross up pay payments to ensure that Text receives the full amount it would have received otherwise. Where Text is legally obligated to collect or pay taxes on your behalf, Text will invoice you for such amounts, unless you provide a valid tax exemption certificate.
The price of the Services may vary depending on the plan you choose. Unless you’ve signed an Order Form, the price you pay for our Services is based on the current rates listed on our website when you sign up.
As we grow and improve our Services, our prices may change from time to time.
Some Services might be free for a limited time. After that, fees apply based on our standard pricing.
Keep your payment info up to date. All payments are handled electronically using professional payment providers.
If you don’t pay on time, we may pause your access to the Services until the bill is settled. We might also charge interest, within legal limits.
What you owe is what you pay. No withholding, deductions, or offsets. If your local laws require you to withhold any amount, you must pay us extra so we receive the full amount due.

- Limitation on amount of Liability. Text shall only be liable for finally reworded direct damages excluding any situation for which we are not responsible, or situations explicitly excluded under this Agreement or which are caused by events beyond reasonable control.

The foregoing limitation will not limit the Client’s payment obligations under the Agreement. The existence of one or more causes of action under this Agreement shall not increase Text’s liability.
While no Services can be entirely free of errors, we strive to address issues promptly, responsibly and we’re committed to continuously improving.
If something goes wrong due to our fault, we’ll only cover direct damages up to the total amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. And, this doesn't change what you owe us.
