1.2 About Aidea

Aidea is an AI-driven idea-expansion platform designed to assist users in brainstorming and refining business concepts, project strategies, and other creative endeavors. The Service uses advanced AI models to process user-provided inputs and generate suggested improvements, strategies, or action plans. The Service is intended solely as a tool for generating creative ideas and conceptual frameworks, offering generalized guidance rather than definitive or personalized professional advice.

The Service operates as a technological platform and does not guarantee the success, accuracy, or commercial viability of any generated content. Aidea’s role is limited to providing automated suggestions based on algorithms that interpret user input. The Company neither endorses nor assumes responsibility for the consequences of any decisions made based on the AI-generated outputs.

1.3 No Professional Advice Disclaimer

The Service is intended for informational and brainstorming purposes only and is not a substitute for professional, legal, financial, business, or any other specialized advice. The outputs generated by the Service are based on AI models trained on general datasets and should not be interpreted as specific recommendations tailored to individual circumstances. While the Service strives to provide useful and relevant suggestions, Aidea makes no guarantees regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of the generated content.

By using the Service, you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for verifying and evaluating the AI-generated suggestions before taking any action. Aidea does not form any client-advisor, attorney-client, or fiduciary relationship with users through the Service. The Company disclaims all liability for any decisions, actions, or outcomes resulting from reliance on the Service’s outputs. Users are encouraged to seek professional advice from qualified experts before implementing any ideas or strategies generated by the Service.

Additionally, the Service may, from time to time, provide links to third-party websites or external sources for informational purposes. These links do not constitute endorsements, and the Company is not responsible for the content, accuracy, or availability of such third-party resources.

If you are under the required age, you may not use the Service, even with parental or guardian consent, unless explicitly allowed by applicable law in your jurisdiction.

In addition, users must have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement and must not be barred from using the Service under any applicable laws. If you are using the Service on behalf of a business, organization, or legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms. In such cases, any reference to “you” in these Terms will also refer to the represented business, organization, or legal entity.

4. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

The Aidea platform leverages advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models to generate content based on user-provided inputs. This section clarifies the nature, ownership, limitations, and associated risks of using AI-generated content provided by the Service. By using the Service, you acknowledge and accept the inherent limitations of AI technology and your responsibility in evaluating and applying AI-generated content for any purpose, whether personal or commercial.

4.1 Nature of AI-Generated Content

The core functionality of Aidea involves generating content based on AI models designed to assist with idea expansion, business planning, strategy development, and related creative tasks. The AI-generated content is produced by processing the information you submit through the Service and applying computational models trained on generalized datasets.

It is crucial to understand that AI-generated content is inherently probabilistic, meaning that the platform generates suggestions, insights, and recommendations based on statistical patterns derived from large-scale data processing. This process is automated, data-driven, and devoid of human oversight during generation. As such, the content produced by the Service should be considered informational and advisory in nature, not definitive or authoritative.

The Service is designed to assist with brainstorming and creative development, but it does not replace professional advice, decision-making processes, or expert consultations in legal, financial, business, or technical domains.

4.2 No Guarantee of Accuracy, Completeness, or Reliability

Due to the nature of AI-driven content generation, Aidea does not guarantee that the content produced by the Service will be accurate, complete, reliable, up-to-date, or free from errors. While the AI models are designed to provide relevant and context-aware suggestions, they may produce content that contains:

• Factual Inaccuracies: The models may reference incorrect or outdated information due to training data limitations.

• Incomplete Information: Generated content may lack critical details necessary for fully informed decision-making.

• Ambiguities and Inconsistencies: Different prompts may result in contradictory outputs due to contextual variations.

• Unforeseen Errors: Technical limitations or software bugs may result in unintended outputs or malfunctions.

The Company explicitly disclaims any responsibility for verifying the accuracy, legality, or applicability of AI-generated content. Users are solely responsible for validating the relevance and reliability of generated outputs before acting upon them.

4.3 No Professional Advice or Endorsements

The Service is designed to provide AI-generated content for brainstorming and idea development purposes only. It does not constitute professional advice in legal, financial, medical, or business-related matters. The generated content should not be interpreted as endorsements, guarantees, or certified recommendations from the Company.

You acknowledge that:

• No Legal or Financial Advice: The Service does not provide legal, financial, or investment advice, nor does it establish a client-advisor relationship.

• No Business Guarantees: Business or strategy-related suggestions generated by the platform do not guarantee profitability, market success, or favorable business outcomes.

• Independent Evaluation Required: Users must independently evaluate AI-generated content and seek professional counsel from qualified experts before making critical decisions.

4.4 Intellectual Property and Ownership of AI-Generated Content

The ownership rights to AI-generated content created through the Service depend on the type of content and its intended use:

1. Personal and Non-Commercial Use: Users may use AI-generated content for personal or non-commercial purposes without restriction, subject to compliance with these Terms and applicable laws.

2. Commercial Use: Users intending to use AI-generated content for commercial purposes (e.g., business planning, marketing campaigns, product development) are solely responsible for ensuring that such use complies with intellectual property laws, including copyright, trademark, and patent regulations.

3. No Warranties of Originality: The Company does not guarantee that AI-generated content is original or free from potential copyright or intellectual property claims. Due to the nature of AI training datasets, some generated content may inadvertently resemble existing works or contain elements similar to publicly available material. Users must conduct appropriate due diligence to verify originality before using content in public, commercial, or legally sensitive contexts.

4. License to Use Content: By using the Service, you grant Aidea a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, and improve its AI models using the prompts and content submitted by users. The Company will not sell or disclose user-submitted inputs without explicit consent unless required by law.

4.5 User Responsibility for Evaluating and Using Content

As a user of the Service, you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for assessing, verifying, and applying AI-generated content to your specific use cases. You agree that:

• You assume all risks associated with using AI-generated content, including legal, financial, and reputational risks.

• You will evaluate the generated outputs for accuracy, relevance, and compliance with applicable laws before implementing them.

• You will not hold the Company liable for any adverse consequences resulting from your use of the Service’s generated content.

• You acknowledge that reliance on AI-generated content is at your own discretion and risk.

4.6 No Liability for AI-Generated Content

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company disclaims all liability for damages, losses, or harm resulting from the use, misuse, or reliance on AI-generated content. This includes but is not limited to:

• Direct and Indirect Damages: Any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service.

• Data Loss or Corruption: Any loss, corruption, or unintended disclosure of data submitted to or generated by the Service.

• Business Losses: Any lost profits, business opportunities, or reputational harm resulting from reliance on AI-generated business or marketing strategies.

• Legal Claims: Any legal claims, disputes, or regulatory actions resulting from your use or public distribution of AI-generated content.

The Company shall not be held liable for any damages resulting from technical failures, service interruptions, or other unforeseen circumstances that may affect the functionality or availability of the Service.

4.7 Limitations of the AI Models

The Company acknowledges the following inherent limitations in its AI-powered Service:

• Bias and Limitations of Training Data: The AI models are trained on large datasets, which may contain biases, stereotypes, or incomplete information. Users should be aware of these limitations and exercise caution when interpreting AI-generated outputs.

• Model Updates and Changes: The AI models used by the Service may be updated, refined, or replaced over time, potentially changing the types and quality of outputs generated.

• Context Sensitivity: The AI’s effectiveness depends on the quality and specificity of user-provided prompts. Ambiguous or incomplete prompts may yield less accurate or useful results.

By using the Aidea Service, you acknowledge that AI-generated content is inherently imperfect, probabilistic, and subject to potential inaccuracies. You accept full responsibility for evaluating, verifying, and applying such content in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Company disclaims all warranties, representations, and liabilities related to AI-generated content as outlined in this section.

7. Changes to the Terms

Aidea reserves the right to modify, update, or amend these Terms of Use at its sole discretion at any time. This section outlines how changes to these Terms will be communicated, the user’s responsibilities upon such changes, and the legal implications of continued Service use following updates. By using the Service, you agree to remain informed about any modifications to these Terms and to accept the updated Terms as legally binding.

7.1 Right to Modify the Terms

We reserve the right to update, revise, or replace these Terms at any time to reflect changes in our business practices, evolving legal requirements, technological advancements, or modifications to the Service itself. These updates may involve changes to how the Service operates, the introduction of new features, or adjustments to user obligations, rights, and responsibilities.

The Company is under no obligation to provide prior notice for minor changes or updates that do not significantly affect your legal rights. However, if a change materially alters your legal obligations or our responsibilities, we will take reasonable steps to inform you in advance.

7.2 Notification of Changes

When significant changes to these Terms are made, we will notify users through one or more of the following methods:

• Posting an updated version of the Terms on our website or within the Service interface.

• Displaying an in-app notification or message alerting users to the changes.

• Sending an email notification to registered users (if applicable and feasible).

The updated Terms will include an “Effective Date” at the top of the document, indicating when the revised Terms become binding.

It is your responsibility to regularly review these Terms for updates or modifications. We recommend that you check the Terms periodically to stay informed about any changes that may affect your use of the Service.

7.3 Acceptance of Updated Terms

By continuing to access or use the Service after the updated Terms have been posted and become effective, you are deemed to have read, understood, and agreed to the revised Terms. If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you must immediately discontinue using the Service.

Your continued use of the Service after receiving notice of updates constitutes explicit acceptance of the revised Terms, including any changes to data processing practices, user responsibilities, and limitations of liability.

7.4 Disagreement with Terms Revisions

If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service immediately. You may also request the deletion of your account and personal data as permitted under applicable data protection laws by contacting us at feedback.aidea.app@gmail.com.

Failure to discontinue use of the Service after updates are posted will be considered acceptance of the revised Terms, and all interactions with the Service will be governed by the latest version of these Terms.

7.5 Legal Implications of Changes

Modifications to these Terms will not apply retroactively unless explicitly stated otherwise. Any disputes that arise before the updated Terms take effect will be governed by the previous version of the Terms in effect at the time of the dispute.

If a material change affects your legal rights, you may be given a specific grace period (as required by applicable law) during which you may accept or reject the revised Terms before they become binding. The length of this period will be determined based on the nature of the changes and applicable legal requirements.

7.6 Entire Agreement Clause

These Terms, along with any applicable policies or legal notices referenced herein (including the Privacy Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the use of the Service. They supersede any prior agreements, communications, or understandings, whether oral or written, related to the Service.

In the event of a conflict between these Terms and any other agreement you may have with the Company, the provisions of these Terms shall prevail unless explicitly stated otherwise in a separate agreement authorized by the Company.

7.7 Severability of Terms

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The unenforceable provision shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect the original intent of the parties, or replaced with a valid provision that best reflects the intended purpose of the original clause.

By using the Aidea Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted the possibility of changes to these Terms. You agree to stay informed about any revisions and to be bound by the most current version of these Terms as posted on the Service.

8. Governing Law & Disputes

This section outlines the legal framework governing these Terms, including applicable laws, dispute resolution processes, jurisdictional considerations, and limitations on collective legal actions. By using the Aidea Service, you agree that any disputes or claims arising from or related to your use of the Service will be resolved as described below.

8.1 Applicable Law

These Terms, including their interpretation, enforcement, and any disputes arising out of or related to your use of the Service, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [Insert Country/State], without regard to its conflict of law principles. This choice of law applies regardless of where you access the Service, unless otherwise required by applicable consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction.

If you access the Service from outside the designated jurisdiction, you are responsible for ensuring that your use complies with local laws and regulations. Aidea makes no representation that the Service is appropriate or available for use in locations outside its primary jurisdiction.

8.2 Dispute Resolution Process

We are committed to resolving disputes quickly and efficiently. If a dispute arises between you and Aidea related to the Service or these Terms, the following dispute resolution process will apply:

a. Informal Resolution

Before initiating formal legal proceedings, you agree to first contact us at feedback.aidea.app@gmail.com to attempt informal resolution. You must provide a detailed written description of the issue, including relevant facts, supporting documents, and a proposed resolution.

We will acknowledge receipt of your dispute notice and attempt to resolve the matter informally within 30 days of receiving your submission. Both parties agree to act in good faith to resolve disputes during this period.

b. Binding Arbitration (if applicable)

If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, and unless prohibited by applicable law, both parties agree to submit the matter to binding arbitration under the rules of [Arbitration Organization, e.g., American Arbitration Association (AAA)]. Arbitration will be conducted in [Insert City/State] or another mutually agreed location, in English, by a single arbitrator with expertise in technology-related disputes.

The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party will bear its own legal fees unless otherwise determined by the arbitrator.

8.3 Jurisdiction and Venue

If arbitration is not applicable or enforceable, or if a court action is necessary, you agree that all claims or disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Service will be brought exclusively in the courts of [Insert City/State], unless otherwise required by applicable law. You waive any objections related to jurisdiction, venue, or forum non conveniens.

8.4 Waiver of Class Actions and Collective Proceedings

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted solely on an individual basis. You expressly waive any right to participate in a class action, collective lawsuit, consolidated proceeding, or similar collective legal process against Aidea.

By agreeing to these Terms, you acknowledge that you understand the implications of waiving your right to participate in class or representative actions. If this waiver is found to be unenforceable by a court of law, the dispute shall proceed solely in individual arbitration or litigation.

8.5 Injunctive Relief

Nothing in these Terms shall limit Aidea’s right to seek injunctive relief or other equitable remedies in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the unauthorized use, misuse, or violation of its intellectual property rights, data security policies, or any other breach of these Terms that could cause irreparable harm.

8.6 Limitation on Claims

You agree that any claim or cause of action related to the Service or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year from the date the claim arose. Failure to initiate proceedings within this timeframe will result in a waiver of the claim, regardless of any statutory limitation period that may apply.

8.7 Force Majeure

Aidea shall not be held liable for any failure to perform its obligations due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of war, terrorism, labor disputes, government orders, internet outages, cyberattacks, and other unforeseen events that prevent the proper functioning of the Service.

8.8 Severability of Dispute Provisions

If any part of this section is deemed unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If binding arbitration or the waiver of class actions is found to be unenforceable, disputes shall be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction as specified in this section.

By using the Aidea Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the governing law, dispute resolution process, and jurisdictional terms outlined above. You waive any right to claim jurisdiction outside of the specified legal framework and agree to resolve disputes through the processes described herein.
