2. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account or using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service.

3. Description of Service

The Content Labs provides AI-powered content creation and strategy tools, including but not limited to:

• Content analysis and optimization recommendations
• Competitor analysis and insights
• AI-powered content generation tools (The Chemist)
• Content calendar and planning features

4. User Accounts

To access certain features of our Service, you must create an account. You are responsible for:

• Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
• All activities that occur under your account
• Providing accurate and complete information
• Updating your information to keep it current

You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.

5. Subscription and Payment

Our Service is available through paid subscription plans (Starter, Pro, and Studio). For paid subscriptions:

• Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis depending on your selected billing interval
• Annual plans are billed as a single upfront payment at a discounted rate
• All fees are subject to our Refund Policy
• You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings
• Upon cancellation, your access will continue until the end of your current billing period
• Plan changes (upgrades or downgrades) take effect at the end of your current billing period

Because our platform uses third-party APIs and compute resources, costs are incurred when analyses are run. Please review our Refund Policy for complete details on refund eligibility.

Certain features consume Lab Credits, a usage-based currency included with your subscription plan. Lab Credits reset each billing period and do not roll over. Additional credit packs may be purchased as one-time transactions. Credit packs do not expire.

6. Refunds

Due to the nature of our AI-powered services, refund eligibility is limited. In summary:

• No full refunds are available after analyses have been run or Lab Credits consumed
• Full refunds may be considered if a technical issue on our end completely prevents access to the platform
• Partial refunds or account credits may be offered for service-impacting bugs or stability issues
• Refund requests must be submitted within 7 days of purchase

For full details, see our Refund Policy.
