Terms of Service

1. Who we are

These terms govern your use of DollarSite (“DollarSite”, “we”, “us”), a service that helps you build websites and related business tools, make them live to the Internet, and run them (the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these terms. If you use the Service on behalf of a business, you confirm you're authorized to accept these terms for it.

2. Your account

• You must be at least 18 years old and provide accurate account information.
• You're responsible for keeping your password secure and for all activity under your account.
• Tell us promptly at info@dollarsite.net if you suspect unauthorized access.

3. Building, previewing and going live

You can build and preview websites free of charge. Making a website live to the public Internet requires an active paid subscription for that website. We may set reasonable limits on free drafts to prevent abuse.

4. Pricing and billing

• The current price is $7 per month for your first live website and $5 per month for each additional live website, plus any applicable taxes. Prices are shown on our pricing page.
• Your subscription includes keeping each live website online (making it available to visitors over a secure connection) at no additional charge. We do not bill for this separately, subject to the fair-use limits that apply to the Service and to Section 10.
• Subscriptions renew automatically each billing period until canceled. Adding or removing live websites changes your subscription quantity, and charges may be prorated.
• If a payment fails we'll notify you and retry. If payment is not received within a grace period, live websites may be paused until the balance is settled.
• We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice. Changes apply from your next billing period.
• Fees are non-refundable except where required by law or stated otherwise by us in writing.

5. Cancellation

You can cancel at any time from your account settings. Your websites stay online until the end of the current paid period, after which they are paused (not deleted) and can be reactivated later. You can export your contacts and app data before canceling. Websites themselves cannot be exported (see section 6).

6. Your content

You keep ownership of everything you upload or create (“Your Content”), including text, images, and customer data collected through your websites. You grant us a limited license to host, copy, process, display and transmit Your Content solely to provide and improve the Service. You're responsible for having the rights to Your Content and for complying with laws that apply to your business, including privacy laws covering the data your website collects from your visitors.

The websites the Service generates and keeps online for you — their design, layout, code, templates, themes and the apps and features embedded in them (“Platform Materials”) — are part of the Service and remain ours. We license them to you to use only as hosted on the Service while your subscription is active. Websites are not provided as downloadable files and may not be copied, exported or rehosted elsewhere. This doesn't limit your ownership of Your Content: you can reuse your own text, images and logo anywhere, and export your customer data.

7. AI-generated content

The Service uses artificial intelligence to generate website text, layouts and answers. AI output can be inaccurate. Please review your website before going live, and make sure claims about your business (prices, hours, qualifications, offers) are correct. You are responsible for the content on your live website.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Service to post or distribute content that is illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, infringing, hateful, harassing, sexually exploitative, or malicious (including phishing pages and malware); to send unsolicited bulk email; to impersonate others; or to interfere with the Service or other users. We may suspend or remove content or accounts that violate these terms.

If you believe a website address infringes your trademark, email info@dollarsite.net.

9. Third-party services

Some features rely on third parties, for example payment processing through your own Stripe account, or domain registrars. Your use of those services is governed by their terms. We aren't responsible for third-party services, and we don't take a fee on payments you receive through your own payment account.

10. Availability and changes

We work hard to keep the Service fast and available, but we don't guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may add, change or remove features over time, and will give reasonable notice of material changes that negatively affect you.

11. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The Service is provided “as is” to the maximum extent permitted by law. To the extent permitted by law, we won't be liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or lost profits or revenue, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

12. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these terms, fail to pay, or if required by law. Where reasonable, we'll give you notice and a chance to export your data.

13. Governing law

[To be completed: governing law, jurisdiction and dispute resolution.]
