Terms of Service

Last updated

These terms describe use of Storypic (storypic.forage.bot), operated by Jobbot Inc. Review them before ordering or using the service. A purchase is subject to the terms presented when you agree to it. Nothing here removes mandatory consumer rights or replaces a separately agreed contract. The Privacy Policy describes information handling; it is not consent to every possible use of your information.

1. The service

Storypic turns the facts you supply about one person into a personalized 1080×1920 PNG celebration image. You pick an occasion and vibe, type 5–15 facts, and we generate the image headline, callouts, closing line, caption, and background illustration, then deliver the composed PNG via your order page. You decide whether and when to post it, and to which audience. This is a personal celebration product, not a business-only service.

The description, scope, and price shown for your selection at checkout (listed here as $4 for one celebration image, unless otherwise stated) apply to your order.

Later changes do not retroactively reduce an existing order's scope, promised benefits, or accrued rights. Product-specific commitments made when you order are not cancelled by a generic disclaimer in these terms.

2. Eligibility and authority

You must be at least 18 and legally able to enter the applicable agreement. Personal or business use is permitted to the extent described by the product. If acting for an organisation or another person, you must have authority for the purchase and the information or instructions you provide. Using the service does not by itself mean you are acting as a business.

3. Orders, delivery, subscriptions, and cancellation

The selected purchase specifies whether billing is one-time, recurring, credit-based, or usage-based, and the price, currency, included benefits, billing interval, and applicable limits. A one-time purchase does not create a subscription. Do not assume future services or add-ons are included unless the offer says so. A delivery estimate is not a guaranteed deadline unless expressly promised; this does not excuse nondelivery or remove a stated deadline or remedy.

Delivery normally occurs through the order page after payment clears, with an emailed order link. This is a one-time purchase, not a subscription; processing time can vary. We do not publish to social accounts, schedule posts, or contact the subject for you.

Where you expressly select recurring billing, charges follow the stated interval until cancellation takes effect. Use the cancellation method described by the product or contact storypic@forage.bot if it is missing or fails. These instructions do not limit legally available cancellation methods. Pausing content, deleting a local file, or closing a browser does not necessarily cancel a subscription.

The plan specifies when cancellation takes effect and what happens to access and stored outputs. Cancellation does not by itself determine a current-period refund; section 5 and mandatory law govern that question. Any change to a recurring price or material benefit must comply with the agreed plan and applicable notice, agreement, and cancellation requirements.

4. Fees, payment, and taxes

Payments are processed by Stripe. You authorise the amount, currency, and, for a recurring plan, the billing arrangement you expressly select. The total and applicable taxes or discounts are shown before payment. Do not submit card numbers or security codes through product forms, API requests, or support messages; browser card entry belongs in Stripe Checkout.

5. Refunds and mandatory remedies

If we can't make your image, we refund you automatically and email you. If your image came with one of our standard backgrounds because we couldn't paint one from your facts, the order page says so and you can refund from it within 90 days. If you haven't pressed Show my image on your order page yet, you can refund from that page within 30 days; the image is shown only after you press it, so we can tell. Otherwise email storypic@forage.bot and we'll work it out case-by-case. We can't unpost what you've already shared.

Refund processing is automated through Stripe and typically appears on your statement within 5–10 business days. A refund also takes the on-domain image preview offline immediately; the PNG you already saved to your phone is unaffected. A take-down does not erase the separate order record or recall copies held by other people, browsers, or social platforms.

These voluntary conditions do not limit remedies for a faulty, misdescribed, or undelivered service, statutory withdrawal or cancellation rights, or other rights that cannot be waived. Starting digital delivery or downloading a file does not, by these terms alone, waive a statutory withdrawal right; any exception must meet the applicable legal requirements.

If an automatic control rejects or cannot process an eligible request, contact storypic@forage.bot. An automated decision is not the final determination of your legal rights. Refunds we issue normally return through the original payment method; bank processing times are outside the product's control. Existing more generous commitments remain applicable to the orders made under them.

6. Information you submit; authority and permissions

Provide accurate information for the feature requested and a working contact address where needed. You are responsible for obtaining authority to submit another person's information, a client's material, or an instruction affecting a third party.

You represent that the facts you submit are about a person you know and that you have the right to use those facts in a celebration image you intend to post publicly. You authorize processing by the providers described in our Privacy Policy. Use minimal non-sensitive information about a child and obtain parent or guardian permission where required.

7. Submission restrictions and acceptable use

You may not use Storypic to harass, dox, impersonate, or harm the person the image is about. Do not submit facts you know to be false and intended to deceive viewers. We may take an on-domain preview down if it appears to violate these terms, subject to section 15. You also agree not to:

  • submit payment card information except through Stripe Checkout;
  • submit highly sensitive personal information or third-party confidential material you are not authorized to share;
  • violate law, infringe rights, impersonate another person, distribute malware, or breach a duty of confidentiality;
  • bypass access controls, access another customer's data, or instruct us to test systems without the necessary authority;
  • disrupt the service, evade published limits, or impose unreasonable load on our systems or a third party's systems; or
  • resell access to the service itself as your own service without an applicable plan or permission. This does not prohibit the permitted use or distribution of purchased outputs described below.

Automated use of documented APIs and public machine-readable surfaces is permitted subject to their authentication requirements, published limits, applicable plan, and law. It does not grant access to private data. Protect API credentials and private access links; report suspected misuse.

Image access, regeneration, and take-down

Keep the signed order link in your delivery email private; it provides access to your order and its controls. Anyone with the image share link can view the on-domain PNG while it is available. Sharing that link is different from sharing the private order link.

The order page offers one free regeneration within one hour of delivery. A failed regeneration, or one that comes with a standard background, does not consume that free use. You can also take a delivered on-domain preview down from the order page. Take-down deletes our stored PNG so new requests to the image link return 404. It cannot be put back; the PNG you already saved remains yours to use under the personal-use licence in section 10.

A take-down does not erase the separate order record or recall copies held by other people, browsers, or social platforms. We cannot unpost an image you have already shared.

8. AI processing and limitations

Storypic uses third-party AI services, including model requests routed through OpenRouter. Relevant content may be sent to upstream providers as described in the Privacy Policy. Outputs can contain errors, omissions, stale information, or material similar to other users' outputs. Unless expressly included in the offer, no particular model is promised. Provider or method changes remain subject to our existing commitments and applicable data-protection obligations.

9. Your content and our limited permission

You retain your rights in submitted material. You give Jobbot Inc a non-exclusive permission to host, copy, transmit, and process it only as needed to provide requested features, support them, protect the service, and satisfy applicable legal obligations. Providers may perform those tasks on our behalf as described in the Privacy Policy. This permission lasts only as needed for those purposes and lawful retention requirements.

This is not an unrestricted licence to publish private submissions, advertise with them, or train models on them. Sharing and publication follow the product's stated features and your instructions. Any separate agreement and applicable privacy law continue to apply; third-party AI practices are described in the Privacy Policy.

10. Output and permitted use

Subject to these terms and payment of applicable fees, you may share, gift, post, and print the delivered celebration image for personal, non-commercial use. We retain all rights in the service itself, including the site, prompts, software, and operating methods.

Third-party material remains subject to its owners' rights. A generated output is not a promise of exclusivity, copyright protection, trademark clearance, or permission to use someone else's protected material. Review the output before publication, filing, or reliance.

11. Third-party services

Hosting, payments, delivery, data sources, and optional integrations may depend on third parties. Their independent services can have their own terms, and outages can affect availability. This does not remove our obligations for a service we sold or the remedies available under section 5, an express commitment, or applicable law. The Privacy Policy describes the relevant recipients of information.

12. Disclaimers and review of output

Except for express commitments made with the product and rights imposed by law, the service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent lawful, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not promise uninterrupted availability or a particular result beyond the stated offer.

Storypic does not guarantee that the recipient will see the image or react in any particular way. Image text is designed to be based on your facts, while the background is an illustration rather than a factual photograph. We do not independently verify your facts; generated text or imagery can still be inaccurate, inappropriate, awkward, or miss the mark. The image text is generated from the facts you supply; the background illustration is generated from the chosen vibe. Preview the image and use the regenerate option if needed before posting.

Review important facts, instructions, recipients, and deadlines before acting on output. That responsibility does not excuse inaccurate product descriptions, remove promised quality conditions, or transfer our legal duties to you.

13. Limitation of liability

Where permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including lost business profits, arising from the service. Where a monetary cap is lawful, our aggregate liability for the service concerned is limited to the greater of the fees you paid for it during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim or US$100.

These limitations do not exclude fraud, deliberate misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence where liability cannot be excluded, or any other liability or mandatory consumer remedy that applicable law does not permit us to exclude or limit. They do not reduce an express refund or payment obligation.

14. Business-user indemnity

Only if acting in a business capacity, and to the extent permitted by law, you agree to cover reasonable third-party claims and costs caused by your unlawful submissions, infringement of rights, or intentional misuse of the service. This indemnity does not apply to consumers or losses caused by our own breach, our negligence, or misconduct. We must notify you promptly of a claim, allow a reasonable opportunity to defend it, and reasonably cooperate. Neither party may agree a settlement imposing admissions or non-monetary duties on the other without its consent.

15. Suspension and termination

We may restrict access where reasonably necessary for a material breach, security risk, fraud, or legal requirement. Where lawful and practical, we will explain the reason and an opportunity to resolve the problem. Restriction or discontinuation does not cancel accrued rights, existing payment or refund obligations, or mandatory remedies. You may stop using the product; cancel any recurring plan separately as described in section 3.

Provisions needed to resolve existing matters survive only to that extent, including rights in content, lawful retention, outstanding payments, applicable liability limits, and disputes. Termination is not an indefinite permission to use or retain your submissions.

16. Governing law and disputes

The law of Delaware, USA governs to the extent permitted by applicable law. This does not deprive consumers of mandatory protections in their place of residence or prevent use of a court or regulator available under applicable law. You may contact support to seek a resolution, but doing so is not a prerequisite to a statutory complaint or remedy. These terms impose no mandatory arbitration or class-action waiver.

17. Changes and interpretation

Revisions apply prospectively. Posting a new revision date or sending a notice does not by itself change a completed purchase, accrued right, or permission for previously supplied data. Changes to an ongoing arrangement must meet its valid change provisions and applicable notice, agreement, and cancellation requirements. Product-specific and separately agreed commitments prevail over conflicting generic wording; mandatory law prevails over both. Nothing here excludes reliance on statements that law protects.

If a provision is unenforceable, the rest continues only to the extent it can operate lawfully without it. A failure to enforce a provision on one occasion is not a general waiver of it.
