# Privacy Policy

**Terms of Service**  
**Effective date: August 1st, 2023**

Welcome to Aident AI – the site that lets you create, distribute, and manage your own website or online application, with no coding required. Aident is both a visual programming tool and a cloud platform. You use the programming tool to build your applications, while they are hosted and run on the cloud platform. The application editor is accessed through your browser. There is nothing to download, and you can access your application from any device. Once an application is built on Aident, there is no need to deploy the application to a cloud solution. As soon as an application is built on Aident, it is hosted on Aident's cloud infrastructure.

Our “Terms and Conditions” are below. So that you don’t just have to hold your nose and click “I agree” or wade through a sea of legalese, we created short summaries of what each major section says. Of course, our lawyer insisted that these summaries must be “clearly and conspicuously identified” as “not legally effective,” so you can easily distinguish them below – they are in italics and do not have any numbering.

**1. INTRODUCTION**

These “Terms” are a legal contract between you and Aident. You must be able to enter into contract to use our “Platform”. This includes the age requirement that you must be at least 18 years old, or 13 and have the consent of your parent or guardian, to use it. These Terms include our Privacy Policy. We may change these Terms on occasion, and your continued use of the Platform means you accept the revised Terms. The Terms don’t apply to sites and services operated by other companies you may access through the Platform. Any legal claim involving these Terms, the site, or the services will be settled by arbitration, not through a trial in front of a judge or jury, or through a class action lawsuit.

a) These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you (“Licensee” or “you” and its derivatives) and Aident AI, LLC. (“Aident” or “we” and its derivatives). These Terms govern your use of Aident’s website at https://aident.ai, (the “Site”) and your access to and use of our drag-and-drop application building, hosting, and management platform (the “Platform”). Except where specifically noted below, all references to the Platform include the Site as well. Aident’s Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into these Terms and details how we collect, use, and protect information about individuals.

b) TO USE THE PLATFORM, YOU MUST BE 18 OR OLDER (or the age of majority in the jurisdiction from which you are accessing the Platform), OR BE 13 OR OLDER AND HAVE YOUR PARENT OR GUARDIAN’S CONSENT. If you are a parent or guardian agreeing to these Terms for your child, you are legally responsible for his or her use of the Platform. The Platform is not intended for anyone under 13 and individuals under 13 may not use the Platform.

c) By accessing or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you have the legal right to do so, meet the age requirements in Section 1(b), and have the power to enter into a binding contract with us – either for yourself or on behalf of the entity on whose behalf you are using the Platform. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO AFFIRMATIVELY ACCEPT THESE TERMS WHEN INITIALLY SIGNING UP TO ACCESS THE PLATFORM.

d) These Terms do not apply to any third party websites, services and applications (“Third Party Services”) that you may access through the Platform, such as payment processors or messaging applications. We are not responsible for the content or practices of Third Party Services and provide links to Third Party Services only for the convenience of our users. We encourage you to carefully review the terms of service of any Third Party Service you access through the Platform.

**2. PLATFORM LICENSE**

You can use the Platform to build and host an application or site that you make available to others (an “Aident Site”). Any other use of the Platform, or attempt to copy or damage the Platform, is prohibited, and we may suspend or terminate your account in such event. You may pay an additional fee to access additional features that expand the functionality of the Platform or Aident Sites.

a) License. Subject to these Terms, Aident grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, limited and revocable license to: (i) access and use the functionality of the Platform to build, host and manage websites and other Internet-based services (collectively, an “Aident Site”) that may be made available to members of the general public (each such individual accessing an Aident Site, an “End User”). The license granted in this Section 2(a) includes the right to access, use, and make a reasonable number of copies of any written descriptions of the functionality, technical requirements, or use of the Platform (collectively, “Documentation”), and (b) use any changes to the Platform made available to all Aident clients at no additional cost (each, an “Update”) when each Update is made available. Updates are applied automatically to the Platform.

b) Restrictions. Except as explicitly permitted in these Terms, you may not, directly or indirectly: (i) modify or create derivative works of the Platform; (ii) decompile, reverse engineer, or translate any portion of the Platform into human-readable form (except to the extent expressly allowed by applicable law); (iii) rent, lease, share, distribute, or sell the Platform to any third party, including on a service bureau or similar basis; (iv) remove, alter or deface proprietary notices or marks in the Platform or Documentation; (v) disclose the results of testing or benchmarking of the Platform; (vi) circumvent or disable the Platform’s security, copyright protection, or license management mechanisms, (vii) interfere with the Platform’s operation; (viii) use the Platform to violate the law or the rights of any third party; or (ix) attempt to do any of the foregoing. Aident may take any actions it deems reasonable, including denying access to Users, suspending an Aident Site, or terminating your subscription (as defined in Section 9(a)) for any breach of this Section 2(b).

**3. USE OF THE PLATFORM**

You must create an account to access the Platform’s application creation features. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure, for all acts that occur under your account, and for the acts of anyone who accesses the Platform on your behalf. You may use the platform to create applications for your customers. You can’t use the Platform for illegal purposes, to post pornography or hateful content, harass others, or do anything else your mother would not approve of.

**4. AIDENT OBLIGATIONS**

We strive to keep the Platform available 24/7/365 but may suspend access for maintenance or to protect it from attacks or other threats. We protect the Platform with robust physical, network, and data security measures.

**5. AIDENT SITES AND DIRECT USER CONTENT**

You are responsible for all content and operation of any Aident Site you build, including the actions of any individual who accesses or uses your site. You must include terms that are at least as protective of Aident as these Terms on your site. We can remove any content on the Platform or an Aident Site that violates these Terms.

**6. AIDENT MARKETPLACE**

You buy or sell (license, really) templates and plugins for use with Aident Sites on the Aident Marketplace. Aident provides the Marketplace as a service to our users, but is not responsible for transactions on the Marketplace. We do not warrant any item licensed through the Marketplace, but may reject or remove items that we determine do not meet our standards. If you sell an item on the Marketplace, you may not sell that item anywhere else.

**7. OWNERSHIP**

We own the Platform and all information about its use that does not allow for the identification of individuals. You own your content. We may use any feedback you provide about the Platform or Aident without compensating you.

**8. THIRD PARTY MATERIAL**

We may make content or services provided by third parties available through the Platform as a convenience to our users. We are not responsible for their content or services, and recommend that you review their terms before using it.

**9. FEES**

Any fees for Platform Subscriptions are due in advance, are automatically charged to your credit card, and will continue until cancelled. We will charge sales tax where applicable. We use Stripe to process payments and you must agree to their terms when entering payment information.

**10. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION**

We will each keep the other’s sensitive information safe, and only use it as necessary.

**11. TERM AND TERMINATION**

You may terminate these Terms at any time by cancelling your subscription and stopping use of the Platform. We may terminate them for your breach, including failure to pay.

**12. DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION**

The Platform is provided without any warranty, e.g. we do not claim or guarantee legally that we are bug-free. Except in certain egregious cases, Aident's maximum liability is limited to $100. You are responsible for all costs and damages we suffer as a result of your content or breach of these Terms.

**13. INFRINGEMENT**

We may remove content from the Platform or an Aident Site that users report as infringing the intellectual property rights of others, or that we believe does so.

**14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION**

New York law governs these Terms. Any dispute about the Platform or the Terms will be settled by arbitration, not a trial in front of a judge or jury, or through a class action lawsuit.

**15. MISCELLANEOUS**

These Terms are the entire understanding of the parties with respect to their subject matter and supersede any previous or contemporaneous communications, whether oral or written. These Terms may be modified as set forth in Section 1(f) or in a writing signed by both parties.
