Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User", "you") and Your Company ("Company", "we", "us", "our"), operator of the website Baaed FREE SEO Suite. By accessing or using Baaed FREE SEO Suite or any of its tools, features, or APIs (collectively the "Service"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference.

If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, in which case "you" refers to that entity.

• Security tools (password generator, hash generators).

3. User Accounts

3.1 Registration

Some features require a registered account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update this information as necessary. You may not impersonate another person or entity.

3.2 Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately at info@baaed.com if you suspect unauthorised access. We are not liable for any loss resulting from unauthorised use of your account caused by your failure to safeguard credentials.

3.3 One Account Per Person

Each natural person may maintain only one free account. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent usage limits is a breach of these Terms and may result in suspension of all associated accounts.

3.4 Account Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or 16 in the EEA) to create an account. By registering, you represent that you meet this age requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.

4. Acceptable Use Policy

You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in a manner consistent with these Terms. The complete rules are in our standalone Acceptable Use Policy. Specifically, you agree:

• To use website-analysis tools only on websites you own, are authorised to analyse, or have a legitimate purpose to examine (e.g. publicly available information).
• Not to use the Service in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international law.
• Not to use the Service to transmit unsolicited commercial email (spam) — see our Anti-Spam Policy.
• To respect the usage limits of your subscription tier, as described on the Pricing page.
• To submit accurate information when generating documents (e.g. privacy-policy generator, contracts) and to obtain independent professional review before relying on generated outputs.

5. Prohibited Conduct

The following activities are strictly prohibited and may result in immediate account suspension and potential legal action:

• Automated scraping: using bots, scripts, or automated tools to mass-scrape the Service or its outputs without prior written permission.
• Reverse engineering: attempting to decompile, disassemble, or reverse-engineer any part of the Service except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.
• System interference: uploading or transmitting viruses, malware, or any code designed to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorised access to any system.
• Circumventing security: attempting to bypass authentication, rate limiting, CAPTCHA, or any other protective mechanism.
• Reselling without authorisation: reselling, sublicensing, or commercialising the Service or its outputs without an appropriate commercial licence.
• Harmful content: using the Service to generate, store, or transmit content that is illegal, defamatory, obscene, threatening, harassing, hateful, infringing, or that violates a third party's rights.
• API abuse: using the API in a way that exceeds your plan limits, evades rate limiting, or degrades service quality for other users.
• High-risk uses: using AI outputs as the sole basis for decisions affecting health, safety, finance, employment, housing, credit, or other "high-risk" matters.

6. Intellectual Property

6.1 Our Property

The Service, including its text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio clips, software, source code, and the compilation thereof, is owned by Your Company and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, or distribute any part of the Service without our prior written consent, except as expressly permitted by these Terms or by applicable law.

6.2 Limited Licence

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business purposes. This licence does not include the right to: (a) sublicense, sell, or resell the Service; (b) build a competing product using the Service; or (c) use the Service to train a machine-learning model.

6.3 Feedback

If you submit feedback, suggestions, or ideas, you grant us a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable licence to use and incorporate that feedback without obligation to you.

7. User-Submitted Content

By submitting content (URLs, text, images, files) through the Service, you represent that you have the right to do so and that the content does not infringe any third-party rights. You retain ownership of your content. You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, transmit, and process your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

We are not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, or legality of content you submit. We may remove content that violates these Terms or applicable law per our Content Moderation Policy, and we may report unlawful content to the appropriate authorities.

8. AI Tools and AI Outputs

Some tools use third-party large-language-model APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter). The complete terms are in our AI Use Policy. The following terms apply specifically to AI features:

• How prompts are processed: the prompt and any inputs you submit are sent to the chosen provider's API and processed there. We use the providers' API offerings (which contractually do not train on your data) and zero-retention mode where available. See our Privacy Policy § 15.
• Confidential data: do not paste confidential, regulated, or otherwise sensitive data (such as protected health information, payment card data, or classified information) into AI tools.
• Ownership of outputs: as between you and us, you own the outputs generated by the AI tool from your prompts, subject to: (a) the third-party provider's terms; (b) any third-party rights in pre-existing material reflected in the output; and (c) the prohibitions in Section 5.
• No warranty on outputs: AI outputs may be inaccurate, biased, incomplete, infringing, or otherwise unsuitable. They are provided "AS IS" with no warranty of any kind. You are responsible for reviewing AI outputs before using them and for ensuring that any use complies with applicable law.
• Restricted uses: you may not use AI tools or outputs (i) to generate content that violates Section 5; (ii) to make automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects on individuals (Art. 22 GDPR); or (iii) for any "high-risk" use as defined in the EU AI Act (Reg. (EU) 2024/1689) or comparable laws unless you have independently validated that the output meets the relevant regulatory standards.

9. Payments, Auto-Renewal, and Refunds

9.1 Free Tier

The Free tier is provided at no cost and is subject to daily usage limits. We may change the Free tier's limits or features at any time on reasonable notice.

9.2 Paid Plans

Paid subscriptions are billed monthly or annually as selected at checkout. All prices are in U.S. dollars (USD) and are exclusive of applicable taxes (e.g. EU VAT, US sales tax) unless stated otherwise. Payments are processed by Stripe and PayPal. We do not store full payment-card details on our servers.

9.3 Auto-Renewal Notice (California ARL / federal ROSCA)

By enrolling in a subscription you authorise these recurring charges. No partial refund is issued for the unused portion of a billing period after cancellation, except as set out in Section 9.4 or as required by applicable law.

9.4 Refund Policy

We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on your first subscription purchase. Single-use passes (e.g. micro-pass, day-pass) are non-refundable once activated. EU and UK consumers retain their statutory withdrawal rights. The complete refund terms are on our Refund Policy page.

9.5 Price Changes

We may change subscription prices on at least 30 days' notice by email and/or a prominent on-site notice. The new price applies from the next renewal after the notice period. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

9.6 Taxes

You are responsible for any taxes, duties, or other governmental charges associated with your use of the Service that we are required by law to collect. Where we collect taxes (e.g. EU VAT through our payment processor), they are itemised on your receipt.

10. Third-Party Links and Services

The Service may contain links to or integrate with third-party websites or services (e.g. Stripe, PayPal, OAuth providers, AI APIs). We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review the terms and privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.

Our use of third-party data processors is described on our Sub-processors page.

11. DMCA / Copyright Complaints

We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512). To submit a notice, see our DMCA Notice & Takedown Policy, which lists our designated agent and the required notice elements. We reserve the right to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

12. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND UNINTERRUPTED ACCESS, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

We do not warrant that:

• The Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.
• The results obtained from using the Service will be accurate, reliable, complete, or current.
• Any defects in the Service will be corrected.

Tool results — including SEO scores, domain analysis, metadata, AI outputs, and generated documents — are provided for informational purposes only and should not be the sole basis for legal, financial, medical, employment, or other consequential decisions. Search-engine rankings are determined by third parties and we make no guarantees about ranking outcomes. See our General Disclaimer for additional context.

Statutory rights: nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any non-waivable warranty, statutory consumer right, or remedy you may have under applicable law (for example, the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 or Australian Consumer Law). Where such rights apply, the disclaimers in this section are read down to the minimum extent permitted by law.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL YOUR COMPANY, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

• Your access to, use of, or inability to access or use the Service.
• Any conduct or content of any third party on the Service.
• Any content obtained from the Service, including AI outputs.
• Unauthorised access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content.

IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $100.

The above limitations apply regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, statute, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Your Company, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including intellectual-property or privacy rights; (d) your submission of content that causes harm to a third party; or (e) your use of AI tools or outputs in breach of Section 8.

We will give you prompt written notice of any claim subject to this indemnification, allow you to control the defence (with our approval of counsel), and reasonably cooperate. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification, in which case you agree to cooperate with us.

15. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, if you breach these Terms or if we are required to do so by law. For non-breach termination by us (e.g. discontinuing a feature), we will give reasonable notice and, where applicable, a prorated refund.

You may terminate your account at any time by deleting it from your account settings or by contacting us at info@baaed.com. Termination does not entitle you to a refund except as stated in our Refund Policy.

Survival: the following sections survive termination: 6 (IP), 7 (UGC license to the extent your content remains in our backups), 8 (AI), 9.4–9.6 (refunds, price changes, taxes for charges already incurred), 11 (DMCA), 12 (Disclaimers), 13 (Liability), 14 (Indemnification), 16 (Governing Law & Arbitration), 17 (Export Controls), and 19 (General Provisions).

16. Governing Law, Arbitration, and Class-Action Waiver

16.1 Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

16.2 Informal Resolution First

Before initiating any formal proceeding, you agree to attempt to resolve any dispute by contacting us at info@baaed.com with a written description of the issue. The parties shall negotiate in good faith for at least 60 days after such notice.

16.3 Binding Individual Arbitration

If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you and we agree to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service through final and binding individual arbitration, administered by JAMS under its then-current Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (or the JAMS Comprehensive Rules where required by the amount in controversy). The arbitration will be conducted in English by a single arbitrator. The seat of arbitration is the State of Delaware, United States of America; the hearing may be conducted by telephone, videoconference, or in person at a mutually-agreed location. The arbitrator's decision is final and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court for disputes within that court's jurisdiction, and either party may seek equitable or injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual-property rights pending arbitration.

16.4 Class-Action Waiver

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person. If a court decides this class-action waiver is unenforceable, then Section 16.3 shall be deemed void in its entirety and the dispute shall instead be resolved in court under Section 16.7.

16.5 Costs of Arbitration

Each party bears its own attorneys' fees and costs unless the arbitrator awards otherwise under applicable law. We will pay the JAMS filing and case-management fees that exceed what you would have paid to file a comparable lawsuit in court.

16.6 Right to Opt Out of Arbitration

You may opt out of the arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in Sections 16.3 and 16.4 by emailing info@baaed.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and including your name and the email on your account. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.

16.7 Court Proceedings (if arbitration does not apply)

If you have validly opted out under Section 16.6, or if a dispute is not subject to arbitration for any reason, you and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of Delaware, United States of America.

16.8 EU / UK / Swiss Consumer Carve-Out

If you are a consumer ordinarily resident in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, nothing in this Section 16 deprives you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection rules of your country of residence. You may bring claims in your local courts and benefit from the laws of your country to the extent those rules cannot be derogated from by contract. EU consumers may also use the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform: ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

17. Export Controls and Sanctions

You represent that you (a) are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Crimea, the so-called Donetsk People's Republic, and the so-called Luhansk People's Republic); and (b) are not on the U.S. Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals list, the U.S. Commerce Department's Denied Persons List, or any other restricted-party list maintained by U.S., EU, or UK authorities. You agree to comply with all applicable export-control and sanctions laws when using the Service.

18. Force Majeure

Neither party will be liable for any failure or delay in performance (other than payment obligations) caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, pandemic, labour shortages, infrastructure failures, internet outages, denial-of-service attacks, or third-party-service disruptions. The affected party will use reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable.

19. General Provisions

• Entire agreement: these Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Refund Policy, DMCA Policy, and any other policies referenced on the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Service and supersede all prior agreements.
• Severability: if any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
• Assignment: you may not assign or transfer these Terms or any of your rights or obligations without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• No agency: nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, agency, joint venture, or employment relationship between you and us.
• Notices: we may give notice by email to the address on your account, by a posting on the Service, or by any other reasonable means. You may give notice to us at info@baaed.com.
• Headings: section headings are for convenience and do not affect interpretation.
• Language: the English version of these Terms is the controlling version.

20. Changes to These Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will:

• Update the "Last updated" date at the top.
• Notify you by email and/or a prominent on-site banner at least 30 days before the changes take effect for paying users.
• For non-material changes (typo fixes, clarifications), the update is effective when posted.

Continued use of the Service after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use before the effective date.
