These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Crada service operated by Crada (“we,” “us,” or “our”) at crada.live. By creating an account or using the service, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use Crada.

1. Account Terms

1.1 Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Crada. If you are under 18, you must have permission from a parent or legal guardian.

1.2 Account Creation

  • You must provide a valid email address to create an account.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password.
  • You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
  • You must notify us immediately at support@crada.live if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account.

2. The Service

2.1 Description

Crada is a content reference management service. You can save links, text excerpts, articles, and notes, organize them with tags, and find them via search. Crada uses AI to automatically classify, summarize, and analyze your saved content.

2.2 Service Tiers and Credits

  • Free tier: Includes a limited number of credits for AI-powered features. Core saving and search functionality is available at no cost.
  • Paid tier: Additional credits and features available through credit purchases or subscription plans.
  • Credits: AI features (classification, summarization, analysis) consume credits. Credit costs vary by content length and feature. Unused credits do not expire while your account is active.

2.3 Service Availability

We strive to keep Crada available and reliable, but we provide the service on a “best effort” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may temporarily suspend the service for maintenance, updates, or improvements with advance notice when possible.

2.4 Changes to the Service

We may modify, update, or discontinue features at any time. For significant changes that affect your use of the service, we will provide reasonable notice.

3. Payment and Billing

3.1 Pricing

Current pricing, credit packages, and subscription plans are displayed on the Crada website. All prices are in US dollars unless otherwise stated.

3.2 Payment Processing

Payments are processed by Stripe. By purchasing credits or a subscription, you agree to Stripe's Terms of Service. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled before the next billing cycle.

3.3 Refunds

Credit purchases are non-refundable once credits have been used. For unused credits or billing errors, contact support@crada.live and we will review refund requests on a case-by-case basis.

3.4 Price Changes

We may change pricing with at least 30 days' notice. Existing subscriptions will continue at the current price until the end of the current billing period.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Crada only for lawful purposes. You must not:

  • Use the service to store, distribute, or link to content that is illegal, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable.
  • Attempt to access other users' data or accounts.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the service, servers, or networks connected to the service.
  • Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to access the service in a manner that exceeds reasonable use, except through our official bookmarklet and browser extension.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the service.
  • Use the service to send spam, phishing messages, or unsolicited communications.
  • Violate any applicable local, state, national, or international law.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice.

5. Intellectual Property

5.1 Your Content

You retain full ownership of all content you save, create, or upload to Crada. This includes links, notes, excerpts, tags, and any other content you add to your library.

By using Crada, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to store, process, and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the service to you. This license ends when you delete your content or your account.

We do not claim ownership of your content. We do not use your content for advertising, training AI models, or any purpose other than providing the service.

5.2 Our Service

The Crada service, including its design, code, logos, and documentation, is owned by Crada and protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on the service without our written permission.

5.3 Feedback

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the service, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use that feedback to improve the service. This does not apply to content you save in your library.

6. AI Features

6.1 AI-Powered Classification

Crada uses third-party AI services (currently Groq) to automatically classify, summarize, and analyze your saved content. When you save an item, its text content is sent to the AI provider for processing.

6.2 Limitations

  • AI classifications, summaries, and analyses may contain errors or inaccuracies. They are provided as organizational aids only.
  • AI outputs should not be relied upon as professional, legal, financial, or medical advice.
  • We may change the AI provider or model used for classification at any time without notice.

6.3 Your Data and AI

Your content is processed by the AI provider solely for classification. It is not used to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

7. Third-Party Content and Services

7.1 Saved Links and References

Crada allows you to save links and references to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or content of third-party websites, any transactions or interactions you have with third-party sites, or any data collection by third-party sites you visit through links saved in Crada.

Saving a link in Crada does not imply our endorsement of that content.

7.2 Gmail Integration

If you connect Gmail, Crada accesses your email data in compliance with the Google API Services User Data Policy. Access is read-only and limited to the label you select. You can revoke access at any time.

7.3 Service Providers

Crada relies on third-party service providers (Supabase, Vercel, Stripe, Groq, Resend). Their respective terms of service may also apply to aspects of your use of Crada.

8. DMCA and Copyright

8.1 Respect for Copyright

Crada respects intellectual property rights. Users must not use the service to store or distribute content that infringes on the copyright of others.

8.2 Takedown Notices

8.4 Repeat Infringers

We may terminate accounts of users who are found to be repeat copyright infringers.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Crada shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from your use or inability to use the service.

Our total liability for any claims arising from or related to the service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or one hundred US dollars ($100), whichever is greater.

12. Indemnification

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes not resolved informally will be resolved in the courts located in Delaware.

14. Privacy

Your use of Crada is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

Continued use of Crada after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you may close your account before the changes take effect.
