These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of Collabby. They take effect on 1 August 2026 (effective date). Please read them carefully. By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms; if you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Definitions

These Terms use the following defined terms. Where a term is ambiguous, it will be construed in your favor as the customer.

"Service" means the Collabby platform, including the AI-assisted app builder, hosting and running of apps, the Gallery, teams and organizations, credits, and all related features.

"User Content" means content you upload, author, or submit to the Service, including prompts, files, and configuration.

3. Account, Minimum Age, and Guardian Consent

You must provide accurate and complete registration information and keep it up to date. Your Account is personal to you; you are responsible for activity under it and for keeping your credentials secure. Notify us promptly at support@collabby.ai of any unauthorized use.

The Service is a general-audience product and is not directed to young children. You may create an Account and use the Service if you are an adult, or if you are a minor who registers with the verifiable consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian as described in this Section. In every case you must be at least the minimum age for your country of residence set out below, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under that age to register, whether or not a guardian consents.

Country-specific minimum ages. The age at which a person may use online services on their own, and the point below which a guardian's consent is required, differ by country. The following apply to registration; where more than one rule could apply, the higher age governs:

(a) Republic of Korea: minimum age 14. A person under 14 may not register. A person aged 14 up to the age of majority (19) is a minor and may register only with the consent of their legal representative.

(b) United States: minimum age 13, consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA); we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

(c) United Kingdom: minimum age 13.

(d) European Economic Area: the digital-consent age set by your Member State under Article 8 of the GDPR — 16 unless your Member State has set a lower age of 13, 14, or 15. Below that age, registration requires the consent of the holder of parental responsibility.

(e) Japan: the age of majority is 18; a person under 18 is a minor and may register only with guardian consent.

(f) Elsewhere: you must be the age of majority in your jurisdiction, or a minor registering with guardian consent, and in no case younger than 13.

Registration and use by minors. If you are a minor under the age of majority in your jurisdiction but at least the applicable minimum age above, you may register and use the Service only where a parent or legal guardian (i) has reviewed and accepted these Terms on your behalf, (ii) consents to and supervises your use of the Service, and (iii) accepts responsibility for your activity, including any purchases. A parent or legal guardian who enables a minor's use of the Service is bound by these Terms and is responsible for the minor's compliance with them. We may request verification of a guardian's identity, age, or consent, and may suspend or close an Account where a required consent cannot be verified.

Purchases. Only a User who has reached the age of majority in their jurisdiction, or a consenting parent or legal guardian on a minor's behalf, may buy paid plans or credits. A contract entered into by a minor without the consent of their legal representative may be cancelled by the minor or by the legal representative (미성년자가 법정대리인의 동의 없이 체결한 계약은 본인 또는 법정대리인이 취소할 수 있습니다). We do not treat any purchase by a minor as final or irrevocable.

Children's personal data. Where the Service, or an application you build with it, would collect personal data from a child below the applicable minimum age, a valid lawful basis and any verifiable parental consent required by law must be in place, as further described in our Privacy Policy.

We record which version of these Terms you accepted and when. Where consent to these Terms is captured for an organization through single sign-on or automated provisioning, it is captured through the organization's administrator, who accepts these Terms on the organization's behalf.

4. Description of the Service

Collabby is an AI-assisted platform that lets you build, run, and share web applications by describing them in natural language. It includes an app builder, hosting for the apps you create, a public Gallery, team workspaces, and a credit-based usage system.

The Service relies on third-party AI providers (which currently include Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google). You may optionally supply your own provider API key (BYOK). The Free Tier and paid tiers differ in their features, limits, and the AI models used; the Free Tier runs different AI models (such as Anthropic Haiku or Google Gemini Flash) than paid tiers.

Some features involve generative AI. You are interacting with an AI system, and its Output may be inaccurate or incomplete and is subject to the Output terms in Section 6 and the disclaimers in Section 10. Features, models, limits, and pricing may change over time, as described in Section 12. We do not promise unlimited capacity or guaranteed accuracy, and any stated limits (for example, Free Tier models, seat or app caps, or credit costs) apply as disclosed at the point of use.

5. User Obligations and Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service, and not to build, publish, or distribute any application that:

(a) violates any law or the rights of any third party; (b) generates or distributes malware, or attacks or compromises computers, networks, or critical infrastructure; (c) facilitates weapons, violence, terrorism, or hate; (d) exploits or endangers minors, including any child sexual abuse material; (e) engages in fraud, spam, phishing, impersonation, deceptive practices, election interference, or cryptocurrency mining; (f) collects personal data from children without verifiable parental consent, or unlawfully processes special-category (sensitive) personal data; (g) invades privacy, misappropriates identity, or generates unlawful misinformation.

These restrictions incorporate and flow down the usage policies of our AI providers, which are a condition of our access to their services and therefore of your access to ours.

You must not use Output for high-risk purposes — including medical, legal, financial, employment, insurance, or safety-critical decisions — without qualified human review.

We may suspend, remove, or terminate content, Published Apps, or Accounts that violate these Terms, that create legal risk, or upon an AI provider's demand, and we may act on legal or provider instruction to disable content. We have no general obligation to monitor content, but we provide reporting channels and will act on valid reports and lawful orders as described in Sections 7 and 12.

6. AI Output, Intellectual Property, and Licenses

As between you and Collabby, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we assign to you all right, title, and interest we may hold in the Output generated for you. This is an allocation of whatever rights exist between us; it is not a representation that any valid intellectual-property right exists in the Output.

You acknowledge that: (a) Output generated with little or no human creative contribution may not be eligible for copyright or other intellectual-property protection in some jurisdictions, including the United States and Korea; (b) the Service may generate the same or similar Output for other Users; and (c) we do not warrant that Output is original, non-infringing, accurate, or protectable.

Operating license. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, run, display, transmit, back up, and make technical modifications to Your Content solely to provide, secure, and maintain the Service.

No training of our own models. We do not use Your Content to train our own AI models except with your separate, opt-in consent. Third-party AI providers process your requests to generate Output; Anthropic and OpenAI do not use API inputs or outputs to train their models by default. On the Free Tier, which is served by Google's consumer Gemini API, outside the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom Google may use content to improve its products and services in accordance with Google's terms. We do not make a blanket "no training" promise across all providers, and you should review the applicable provider's policy where it matters to you.

Gallery and fork license. By publishing an app to the Gallery or enabling public sharing or remixing, you grant every other User a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to view, run, fork, and create derivative apps from your Published App. You represent that you have not knowingly incorporated infringing material, and you grant whatever rights you actually hold. Where moral rights (저작인격권) cannot be waived, you agree not to assert them against uses permitted under these Terms.

Feedback. If you send us suggestions or feedback, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to use it without obligation to you.

AI-output transparency and labeling. We are committed to complying with applicable AI-transparency laws, including advance notice that you are interacting with generative AI, human-perceptible marking of AI-generated media, and machine-readable marking of AI-generated Output where required, including on export. Where the law requires such marking, we will provide it in accordance with the law applicable to that Output.

7. User Content, Published Apps, and End-User Data

You are responsible for any application you build, publish, or share and for all User Content and Output within it.

Where a Published App collects personal data from End-Users, you must have a lawful basis for that collection, provide End-Users an appropriate privacy notice, obtain any required consents, and handle their data-subject requests; we will assist as described in our Privacy Policy and data-processing terms.

Our role for End-User Data is not a mere processor role in every case. Because we may define the storage schema, retention, and technical means for End-User Data collected through Published Apps, our arrangement with you for that data may be a joint-controller or shared data-processing arrangement rather than a processor-only arrangement. Our respective responsibilities are set out in our Privacy Policy and data-processing terms, which also disclose the subprocessors we use.

You must not use the Service to collect special-category (sensitive) personal data, or personal data from children, without a valid lawful basis and any required consent.

Honest note on forks and deletion. Content you publish or remix may be independently copied by other Users, for example through forks. Such copies become independent, third-party-owned copies that are outside our control and may persist after you delete your own content. We cannot guarantee complete deletion of content that others have already forked or copied.

Reporting and takedown. We provide channels to report unlawful or infringing content in Published Apps. On valid notice or lawful order we may disable or remove content, notify the affected party where required, and provide a route to contest removal, consistent with applicable takedown and notice-and-action laws.

8. Paid Services, Credits, and Fees

Paid plans and credits let you access additional features and AI usage. Credits are prepaid, single-issuer stored value usable only within the Service. They are non-transferable and have no cash value, and they are not a means of payment redeemable outside the Service.

Credit validity. Credits included with a subscription plan are granted each month and remain valid for the month in which they are granted plus the carry-over period shown on the pricing and plan pages; any unused amount expires after that period. Where the carry-over period is shown as unlimited, such credits do not expire while the subscription remains active. Separately purchased credits and promotional or bonus credits remain valid for the period disclosed at the time of purchase or grant, after which any unused amount expires. Credits are non-transferable, have no cash value, and cannot be redeemed for money outside the Service. This does not limit your mandatory statutory consumer rights, including your right of withdrawal and refund under Section 9.

AI usage and traffic are deducted from your Credit balance as described at the point of purchase and use.

Pricing and tax. Prices are shown in US dollars and exclude any applicable taxes, which will be added at checkout. USD pricing applies regardless of your country.

Auto-renewal and re-consent. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Before any conversion of a free plan to a paid plan, and before any increase in a recurring charge, we will obtain your affirmative consent in advance and disclose the new price and how to cancel. Continued use alone is not treated as consent to those changes. Where an automatic top-up (auto-recharge) is available, it operates only through a control you enable, not as a silent off-session charge.

Merchant of Record. Payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy, LLC as Merchant of Record and seller-of-record on your payment statement. The service provider and 통신판매업자 remains 바이포크 (Vifork), which is your point of contact for withdrawals, refunds, and complaints (see Sections 9 and 11).

Template Marketplace. The Service may offer a marketplace where users list apps they created as template bundles that other users can obtain using credits. When you list a template bundle, you grant us a licence to make that bundle available to users of the Service; a buyer obtains the copy and the licence of that bundle from us, not from the lister. We may review listings, decline or withdraw them, set price ranges, and require that listings meet our publishing standards.

Credits in the marketplace. Credits used in the marketplace are not a means of payment between users; they remain a right to use the Service, granted by us. A buyer's credits are deducted as consideration owed to us, and we grant the lister new credits as consideration for supplying the content to us. Those credits are subject to the same rules as all other credits under this Section: they are non-transferable, have no cash value, and cannot be redeemed for money outside the Service. The validity period of credits granted to a lister does not exceed the remaining validity of the credits used for that purchase, so that credits due to expire cannot be used to extend their own validity.

Marketplace fees and settlement. We deduct the percentage fee and the fixed fee shown in our pricing information from the credits we grant to a lister. Credits granted to a lister are usable only within the Service and are not converted into cash payments or bank transfers.

Marketplace refunds. Refunds for marketplace purchases are made in credits only and are not eligible for cash refunds. Where a purchase is refunded, credits granted to the lister may be reclaimed. This does not limit your mandatory statutory consumer rights under Section 9.

Lister representations. You represent and warrant that you hold all rights necessary for any template bundle you list and that it does not infringe the intellectual property or other rights of any third party. Where a breach is established, we may withdraw the listing and reclaim the related credits.

Prohibited marketplace conduct. Transactions intended to convert a credit balance into cash or other value, transactions without genuine delivery of content, and transactions whose purpose is to move credits between accounts are prohibited. We may reverse such transactions and suspend the accounts involved.

9. Withdrawal, Refunds, and Cancellation

This Section states your rights in order, most protective first. Nothing here limits any mandatory consumer-law right you have.

Statutory cooling-off. If you are a consumer, you have a statutory right of withdrawal: 7 days in the Republic of Korea (전자상거래법 제17조), and 14 days in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom. On a valid withdrawal, the applicable law requires a refund of the unused and unstarted portion without penalty to your original payment method — in Korea within 3 business days of the withdrawal (전자상거래법 제18조) — and we will make that refund accordingly, working with the Merchant of Record through which the original charge was processed.

Divisible unused portions. Unused credits and subscription periods that have not yet started remain withdrawable and refundable within the withdrawal period, even where provision of other, already-used portions has begun.

Non-conformity withdrawal (Korea). If the Service is provided differently from how it was advertised or from the terms of the contract, you may withdraw within 3 months from the date of supply or within 30 days from the date you became aware of the fact (전자상거래법 제17조제3항). This right is not capped at 14 days.

Immediate-performance consent. At checkout you may ask us to begin providing credits or plan access immediately, before your withdrawal period ends. If you do, you keep your right to withdraw from any unused, unstarted portion, but you lose the right to withdraw from credits you actually use and from any subscription period you actually use, once provision of that portion has begun. We capture this consent as a separate, unchecked-by-default choice and record its time, version, and your locale.

Subscription cancellation. You may cancel a Subscription at any time. Cancellation stops future renewals, and you keep access until the end of the paid period. For ongoing (continuous) contracts you may terminate mid-term and we will settle and refund the remaining unused (divisible) portion in accordance with applicable law (including 방문판매법 제31·32조), with any early-termination charge limited so as not to significantly exceed our actual damages.

No negative wallet. A refund will never drive your Credit balance below zero, and we will not bill you for the difference on credits you have already used.

Savings clause. This policy does not limit the mandatory refund or withdrawal rights of your country of residence. Where the law grants you a fuller refund — for example, a full refund where a required consent step was missing — that law prevails.

10. Disclaimers

The Service and all Output are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, offensive, or may infringe third-party rights. We do not warrant that Output is original, non-infringing, accurate, or fit for any particular purpose. You are solely responsible for reviewing, testing, and validating Output before you use, deploy, publish, or rely on it, and you must not use Output for high-risk purposes (medical, legal, financial, employment, insurance, or safety-critical) without qualified human review.

Nothing in this Section excludes warranties or rights that cannot be excluded under the law applicable to you, and nothing here excludes our liability for intent or gross negligence. In particular, the mandatory consumer protections and statutory guarantees of your country of residence survive this disclaimer. Our statutory AI-transparency and labeling duties are our own and are not waived by this disclaimer.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Collabby will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, and our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of one hundred US dollars (US$100) or the amounts you paid us in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim.

You will indemnify and hold us harmless against claims arising from your User Content, your Published Apps, your handling of End-User Data, your violation of these Terms, and any infringement of third-party rights by your content.

No indemnity for Output infringement. We do NOT indemnify you against claims that Output infringes third-party rights. This is because our AI providers indemnify us as their customer, not you as ours, and those provider indemnities exclude prompts, user modifications, and combinations — which describe substantially all use of the Service. You should evaluate Output for infringement before relying on it.

Merchant-of-Record reconciliation. Payments are handled by Lemon Squeezy, LLC as Merchant of Record; consumer-law claims, withdrawals, and refunds are handled by 바이포크 (Vifork) at support@collabby.ai.

Nothing in this Section limits liability for intent or gross negligence, and nothing excludes or limits any right or remedy that cannot be excluded or limited under the mandatory law of your country of residence.

12. Changes, Suspension, and Termination of Service

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service, including features, plans, and models, and we will give reasonable notice of material adverse changes. Price changes and free-to-paid conversions are subject to the advance-consent requirements in Section 8.

We may suspend or terminate your Account for violation of these Terms, legal risk, non-payment, or upon an AI provider's demand. You may close your Account at any time.

On termination we will delete or de-identify your personal data without undue delay, and in any event within 30 days, except: (a) content that others have independently copied or forked, which is outside our control and may persist; and (b) transaction and other records we are required to retain under applicable law (for example, contract, payment, supply, and withdrawal records retained for 5 years, and complaint and dispute records retained for 3 years, under Korean e-commerce law).

Termination does not affect any statutory withdrawal or refund rights you have already accrued under Section 9. Please export your content before closing your Account.

13. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea, and disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Seoul Central District Court (서울중앙지방법원), Republic of Korea.

Consumer savings clause. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms deprives you of the mandatory protections of the law of your country of habitual residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of your place of residence where the law so allows. Consumers in Korea may sue in Korea. This choice of law and forum does not limit your statutory withdrawal, refund, or other consumer-protection rights, and we do not impose binding arbitration or a class-action waiver on consumers.

Alternative dispute resolution. Korean consumers may also seek dispute mediation through the Korea Consumer Agency and the Korea Consumer Dispute Settlement Commission (소비자분쟁조정위원회). Consumers elsewhere may use any out-of-court dispute-resolution mechanism available to them under their local law.

14. Amendments and Consent

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new effective date and keep prior versions accessible.

For material changes we will give you advance notice. For any increase in a recurring charge, or any conversion of a free plan to a paid plan, we will obtain your affirmative consent in advance as described in Section 8, and continued use alone will not constitute acceptance of those changes.

We record which version of these Terms you accepted and when. If you do not agree to an updated version, you may stop using the Service and close your Account before it takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after a non-material update takes effect indicates your acceptance of the updated Terms, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
