Terms Of Service

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Bookify Events Inc, a Delaware corporation that operates Founder Balance ("Bookify Events Inc", "Founder Balance", "we", "us" or "our"). They cover founder-balance.com, the Founder Balance apps for iPhone, iPad and Android, the API, command line tool and website widget (together, the "Services"). By using the Services you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you use the Services for a company, you agree for that company and confirm you may bind it.

2. The Service

Founder Balance is a workspace app for founders and small business owners: sales, marketing, operations, planning, a voice assistant called Hey Founder and the Founder Community. Some features are in beta or on a waitlist, and features may change as we build.

3. Accounts And Eligibility

• You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract.
• Give accurate information and keep it current. Keep your sign-in secure, and tell us right away at support@founder-balance.com if you think someone used your account without permission.
• You are responsible for what happens in your workspace, including the actions of teammates you invite.

4. Subscriptions And Billing

• Plans, prices and what each plan includes are shown before you buy. Taxes may apply.
• Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period until you cancel. In the app stores, cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends to avoid the next charge.
• If you subscribe through the Apple App Store or Google Play, Apple or Google charges you, and their terms govern payment, renewal and refunds. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account subscriptions or the Google Play Store subscriptions screen.
• If you subscribe on founder-balance.com, cancel any time in your workspace billing settings or by emailing support. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period, and we do not give partial refunds unless the law requires it.
• We may change prices with at least 30 days notice before your next renewal. You can cancel before the new price applies.

5. Your Content

You own the content you and your teammates put into Founder Balance and the data you bring from connected accounts. You give us a limited license to host, copy, process and display it only to run the Services for you, including through the service providers named in our Privacy Policy. You confirm you have the rights and any consents needed for the content and contacts you add, import or connect.

We back up the Services, but you are responsible for keeping your own copies of important content. You can export or delete your content as described in our Privacy Policy.

6. Connected Services

You can connect accounts at Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Twilio and other providers. When you do, you authorize us to access and act on that account as the permissions you approve allow, and that provider's own terms also apply to you. You can disconnect at any time. We are not responsible for another provider's service, outages or changes to its API.

7. Messages You Send Through Founder Balance

If you use Founder Balance to email, text, call or message your own contacts, you are the sender. You must have the consent the law requires, honor opt-outs right away, and follow the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, CAN-SPAM, carrier and platform rules, and every other law that applies. We may pause or stop sending that breaks these rules or that carriers or providers flag.

8. Text Messages

9. AI Features

Founder Balance uses AI to draft company profiles, summarize email, answer questions and suggest next steps. AI output can be wrong or incomplete. Review it before you rely on it or send it to anyone, and do not treat it as legal, tax, financial or medical advice.

10. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Break the law, or help anyone else break it, through the Services.
• Send spam, buy or use contact lists without consent, or message people who opted out.
• Upload content that is unlawful, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit or that infringes someone else's rights.
• Access another workspace's data, probe or break our security, or overload the Services.
• Scrape, copy or resell the Services, or use them to build a competing product.
• Use automated means to create accounts or get around limits, the human check or plan entitlements.
• Pretend to be someone else or misrepresent your connection to a person or business.

11. Founder Community

You are responsible for what you post in the Founder Community. Be respectful. Every post and profile can be reported or blocked, and we may remove content or suspend accounts that break these Terms. By posting, you give other members the right to read your post inside the Community, and you give us a license to host and show it there.

12. Our Intellectual Property

The Services, including our software, design, text, logos and the Founder Balance name, belong to Bookify Events Inc and are protected by law. We give you a limited, personal, non-transferable right to use the Services and our apps under these Terms. If you send us feedback, we may use it without owing you anything.

13. Termination

You can stop using the Services and ask us to delete your account at any time (see Data Deletion). We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms, create risk or legal exposure for us or others, or do not pay. Where reasonable, we will tell you first and give you a chance to export your content. Sections that by their nature should survive, such as payment, disclaimers, liability limits and disputes, survive termination.

14. Disclaimer

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not promise the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of harmful components, or that they will produce any particular business result.

15. Limitation Of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Bookify Events Inc and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from the Services or these Terms, even if we were told they were possible. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the claim, or one hundred US dollars. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

16. Indemnification

You agree to defend and indemnify Bookify Events Inc and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents against claims, losses and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that arise from your content, your messages to your contacts, your use of the Services, or your breach of these Terms or the law.

17. Governing Law And Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Before starting a formal dispute, you and we agree to try to resolve it informally for 30 days after written notice.

Except for small claims and claims for injunctive relief about intellectual property, data security or misuse of the Services, any dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules. Any in-person hearing will be held in Gwinnett County, Georgia, unless we agree otherwise. Any dispute allowed in court will be brought only in the state or federal courts in Gwinnett County, Georgia.

You and we agree to bring claims only individually, not as a class, collective or representative action. Any claim must be brought within one year after it arises, to the extent the law allows.

18. Apple And Google

If you got our app from the Apple App Store or Google Play, these Terms are between you and Bookify Events Inc, not Apple or Google. We alone are responsible for the app and its content, maintenance, support and any product or legal claims about it. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide support. If the app fails to meet a warranty, you may tell Apple for a refund of the purchase price, if any, and Apple has no other warranty obligation. You confirm you are not in a country under a US government embargo and are not on a US government list of prohibited parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. Your use of the app must also follow the usage rules of the store you got it from.

19. Changes

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version here with a new date, and if a change is material we will tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect. Using the Services after that means you accept the new Terms.

20. General

These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the Services. If a part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Not enforcing a right is not a waiver. You may not transfer these Terms without our written consent; we may transfer them to an affiliate or as part of a merger or sale of assets. You agree to receive notices and agreements electronically.
