Terms of Service
These terms are the agreement between you and FlashFounder when you use the platform available at flashfounder.com. Read them before you start: using the platform or signing up means you accept them.
Acceptance and definitions
- By creating an account, signing in or using the platform in any way, you confirm that you have read these terms and the privacy policy and agree to both. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.
- "The platform" is the FlashFounder service for building web sites and apps with AI, including the studio, preview, publishing and hosting.
- "A project" is every site or app you build through the platform, with its files and conversations. "Generated content" is what the assistant produces for you: code, text and images.
- "Credits" are the units of use deducted when AI models run for your account.
Eligibility and your account
- You must be at least 16 years old. If you use the platform on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind it.
- You sign in with a Google account. You are responsible for your account and everything done through it, and you must tell us at once if you suspect it is being used without your permission.
- Each account receives a free trial credit once only, and it does not renew. Creating several accounts to obtain extra free credit is not allowed.
- You may use the platform without an account within what it allows; your projects are then kept in your browser only and you may lose them if you clear browser data.
The service and its limits
- The platform builds sites and apps with AI models. The output may be inaccurate, incomplete, contain errors or security flaws, and may resemble output given to other users.
- You are responsible for reviewing and testing what the platform produces before you publish or rely on it, especially for legal, financial or health matters and for any site that handles people's data or payments.
- The platform is under continuous development. We may change or stop features, and we do not guarantee it will be available without interruption or free of faults, and we offer no service level agreement.
Acceptable use
- You agree not to use the platform, or what you build on it, to: break the law; commit fraud or phishing or impersonate any person or organisation; distribute malware; infringe the intellectual property or privacy of others; publish content that exploits children or incites violence or hatred; or send spam.
- Nor to try to break into the platform, probe it for weaknesses, get around credit or plan limits, overload it with excessive requests, reverse engineer it or offer it to others as a competing service.
- We may remove any content, stop any site or suspend any account that breaks this section, without prior notice where necessary and without a refund (see section 7).
Content and ownership
- You keep ownership of your projects and your content. You give us a limited, non-exclusive licence to process, host, display and keep copies of it, only as needed to run the service for you.
- As between us, you own the generated content of your projects to the extent the law allows, with no promise from us that it can be protected by copyright or is free of third-party rights. You can export your project files at any time.
- You are responsible for having the rights to everything you upload (text, images, logos), and for complying with the licences of any open-source components or free images your project contains.
- The platform, its logo, software and design remain ours; you receive only the right to use them under these terms.
Plans, credits and payment
- The pricing page shows the available plans and their prices in US dollars. Some paid plans may not be available to buy yet; what is available is shown on the page when you order.
- Paid plans give monthly credits. Credits are deducted according to the actual cost of running the models for your project, not by the number of messages.
- Credits are a right to use the platform only. They cannot be transferred to another account or sold, and they are not paid out in cash.
- Payment is currently manual, through e-wallets or transfers, and the plan is activated or the credit added after we confirm we received the amount. We may add other payment methods later. We do not store bank card details.
- We may change prices and plans for future periods; a change does not apply to a period you have already paid for.
- You can stop your subscription from renewing at any time by writing to us, and your access continues until the end of the paid period.
No refunds
- Every amount paid to the platform is final and non-refundable, whether it is the price of a subscription or of extra credit, and whether or not the credit was used.
- The price of the current period is not refunded when a subscription is stopped or an account is closed, or suspended for breaking these terms, and remaining credit is not refunded.
- We may grant compensation credit at our discretion when a fault on our side occurs; this is not a refund of money and does not create a right to it again.
- This section does not affect any right that cannot be waived under the law that applies to your relationship with us.
Hosting, publishing and domains
- Published sites are hosted by Vercel and are also subject to its fair use and acceptable use policies. We may stop any site that breaks them or these terms.
- The free account allows one published site. The visit allowances shown on plans are approximate and not guaranteed, and we do not guarantee a specific uptime for published sites.
- You can connect a domain that you own to your site, and you are responsible for owning it, for its DNS settings and for renewing it. We are not liable for a domain being lost or failing at its provider.
- You are responsible for your published site and its visitors and their data, and for providing them a privacy policy and terms where the law requires. Accounts of your site's visitors are kept in your own database, not ours.
Your own keys with model providers
- You may add your own key with a supported model provider to build with it. You are then billed by that provider directly under its terms and prices, and we are not responsible for any charges it makes to you.
- Your keys are stored encrypted, and your requests are sent with them to that provider only. You are responsible for your key's permissions and spending limits, and can delete it from the settings at any time.
Third-party services
- The platform relies on services from other parties, including Supabase, DeepSeek, Google, Vercel, Cloudflare, ImageKit and Resend. Each service is governed by its own terms, and we are not responsible for it stopping or for changes to its terms or prices.
- The privacy policy details the data that reaches these parties.
Reporting content that breaks these terms
- If you see a site published through the platform that breaks these terms or infringes your rights, send arfni333@gmail.com the site's address, a description of the problem and your contact details; for a copyright complaint, include proof that you own the right.
- We review reports as our means allow, and we pause or remove the site if the breach is confirmed; we may tell the site owner so they can reply. We commit to no fixed response time.
Ending and suspension
- You may stop using the platform at any time and ask for your account to be deleted by writing to arfni333@gmail.com.
- We may suspend or end your account, at once where necessary, if you break these terms, put the platform or others at risk, abuse credits, or if we stop the service.
- When it ends you lose access to your projects and credit, and remaining credit lapses without a refund (section 7). Export what you need before it ends.
Disclaimer and limits of liability
- The platform is provided "as is" and "as available", with no express or implied warranties, including fitness for a particular purpose or that its output is free of errors or flaws.
- To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, including loss of profit, data or reputation, arising from using or being unable to use the platform.
- In every case our total liability to you does not exceed what you paid us in the three months before the event, or 50 US dollars if you paid nothing.
- This section does not exclude liability that cannot be excluded by law.
Privacy
- The privacy policy governs how we collect and use your data, and is part of these terms.
Changes
- We may change these terms, and we will update the date below; if the change is material we will tell you inside the platform. Continuing to use the platform after a change means you accept it; if you do not, stop using it.
Governing law and disputes
- These terms are governed by and interpreted under the laws in force in the Arab Republic of Egypt, and the courts of Cairo have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them, without affecting any right that cannot be waived under the law of the country where you live.
- Please write to us first so we can try to settle any disagreement amicably.
General and contact
- If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in force. These terms together with the privacy policy are our entire agreement. Our delay in using a right does not waive it.
- These terms are published in Arabic and English, and if they differ the Arabic text prevails.
- For any question about these terms write to us through the "Contact us" button or at arfni333@gmail.com.
