Terms of Service

Last updated [date]

Template notice: this text is a starting point, not legal advice. Replace the bracketed details and have it reviewed by a qualified lawyer before launch.

These terms govern your use of Startum (the “Service”), operated by [Company legal name], [address] (“we”, “us”). By creating an account you agree to them.

1. The Service

Startum helps founders discover, research, validate and plan software products. AI-generated content can be incomplete or wrong. Reports separate sourced facts from analysis and assumptions, but you are responsible for your own business decisions. Nothing in the Service is financial, legal or investment advice, and we do not predict business success.

2. Accounts

You must provide accurate information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. You must be at least 18 years old.

3. Acceptable use

Do not use the Service to break the law, infringe rights, send spam or collect personal data without a lawful basis.
Landing pages you publish must not deceive visitors, impersonate others or include fake testimonials or claims.
Do not attempt to access other users’ data, disrupt the Service or abuse rate limits.

4. Your content

You own the ideas, notes and other content you add. You grant us a limited licence to process it solely to provide the Service. We do not use your workspace content to train shared AI models.

5. Waitlists you collect

When you publish a waitlist, you are the controller of the email addresses collected and must use them only as described on your page and in line with applicable law.

6. Plans, credits and billing

Paid plans renew monthly until cancelled. AI credits are granted each calendar month, are not transferable and expire at month end. Payments are processed by Stripe. You can cancel anytime from Settings; access continues until the end of the paid period. [Refund policy].

7. Availability and changes

We aim for high availability but the Service is provided “as is” without warranties. We may change or discontinue features with reasonable notice.

8. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. [Jurisdiction-specific terms].

9. Termination

You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend accounts that violate these terms.
