Terms of Service
Last updated: [DATE]
These Terms govern your use of Blog Monkee (“the Service”), operated by [LEGAL ENTITY NAME] (“we”, “us”, “our”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
1. Account
You must be at least 16 years old and legally able to form a contract in your jurisdiction. You agree to provide accurate account information and to keep your password confidential. You are responsible for everything that happens on your account.
2. Subscription, billing, and cancellation
- Paid plans are billed monthly or annually in advance. Prices are listed on /pricing and may be updated with 30 days’ notice.
- A 14-day free trial is available for new accounts. No credit card required to start the trial.
- You may cancel at any time from your dashboard. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. We do not pro-rate refunds for partial periods unless required by law.
- If you pause your subscription, scheduled auto-blogs will not fire while paused. Resume at any time.
- Failed payments result in account suspension after a 7-day grace period. Published content on your WordPress sites is unaffected.
3. Content ownership — your content stays yours
This is the critical clause in these Terms. Read it carefully.
- You own the content you generate through Blog Monkee. All blog posts, outlines, images sourced from your own S3 bucket, campaigns, and brand profiles you create are yours. Blog Monkee claims no ownership, no exclusivity, and no license-back beyond what’s necessary to operate the Service on your behalf.
- You are responsible for content accuracy. AI-generated content can contain errors, fabrications, or outdated information. You are the editor. You approve each post before it publishes. Blog Monkee is not liable for factual inaccuracies in content YOU approve and publish.
- You are responsible for compliance with applicable laws, including copyright, trademark, and advertising-disclosure requirements.
- Images sourced from Unsplash and Pexels are governed by the Unsplash License and Pexels License respectively.
4. Acceptable use
You may not use Blog Monkee to:
- Generate or publish content that is illegal, defamatory, harassing, or infringing on third-party intellectual property.
- Generate content intended to deceive users about the identity of a person, organization, or product (impersonation, deceptive advertising, political misinformation).
- Generate adult, sexually explicit, or violent content.
- Circumvent the Service’s rate limits, authentication, or billing mechanisms.
- Resell or sublicense access to the Service without our prior written permission.
- Reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the Service’s source code, AI prompts, or underlying models.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate this policy. In severe cases (CSAM, fraud, illegal content) we will report to law enforcement.
5. AI-generated content disclaimer
Blog Monkee is a tool that uses large language models (Gemini, OpenAI) to generate text. AI output is not guaranteed to be factually accurate, legally compliant, or free of bias. You are the final editor.
6. Third-party services
Blog Monkee integrates with third-party services (see /integrations). Each is governed by its own terms. We are not responsible for downtime, data loss, or policy changes by third parties.
7. Service availability
- Operator and Agency plans: best-effort availability. No guaranteed uptime.
- Network plans: dedicated infrastructure with contractual SLA.
8. Warranty disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. WE DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATED TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold [LEGAL ENTITY NAME] harmless from any claim arising out of your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any third-party right.
11. Termination
Either party may terminate at any time. On termination, your access to the dashboard ends. Your published WordPress content is unaffected. Your Blog Monkee account data is deleted after a 30-day grace period.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of [STATE, COUNTRY]. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of [COUNTY / CITY, STATE].
13. Changes to these Terms
Material changes will be notified by email at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
14. Entire agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any Order Form or Master Service Agreement (for Network plans), constitute the entire agreement between you and us.
