We encourage you to read them carefully. Although a Terms and Conditions agreement is not legally required, it provides important protections and clarifies rights and obligations. You must indicate your agreement through a clickwrap mechanism during registration or purchase to proceed.

- Licence to CarBG: By uploading content, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, process and reproduce that content solely for the purpose of providing the Service, improving its performance and supporting internal quality assurance. This corresponds to a Content clause, which ensures users own their content but license it for platform use.

5. Payments, Billing and Taxes
- Pricing: Prices for credits and subscription plans are displayed at the time of purchase and may change. Taxes will be applied where required by law.
- Payment processing: We use third-party payment processors; your billing information is handled securely by them. You authorize the charge of fees to your chosen payment method.
- Refund policy: We offer a 100% money-back guarantee within 7 days of purchase if you have used fewer than 100 credits and can show that our results were clearly wrong or of low quality due to a verified system error. To request a refund, contact our support team via email with the attached proof of the issue and your purchase details. After 7 days or once more than 100 credits are used, all sales are final and non-refundable. Misuse, false claims, or dissatisfaction unrelated to service quality are not eligible.
- Failed payments and chargebacks: We may suspend or terminate access if payment fails or a chargeback occurs.
6. Termination and Suspension

We may suspend or terminate your account and access to the Service immediately, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a security or legal risk to us or others.
- Effect of termination: Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends, and licences granted by us cease. Provisions that by their nature should survive (e.g., intellectual property, indemnity, limitation of liability) will remain in effect.
