Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Brisqal ("Brisqal", "we", "us" or "our"). They govern your use of the Brisqal website, chat application, API and the Brisqal Code extension for VS Code (together, the "Service"). Please read them carefully.
By creating an account, clicking to accept, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms, including the Acceptable Use Policy, the AI Output Disclaimer and the Billing & Refund Policy, which form part of these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Who may use the Service
- You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract.
- If you use the Service on behalf of a company or other organization, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf, and "you" includes that organization.
- You may not use the Service if you are barred from doing so under applicable law, including sanctions and export-control laws.
2. Your account
- Give accurate information when you register and keep it up to date.
- Keep your password and VS Code access tokens confidential. You are responsible for all activity under your account.
- Accounts are personal. Do not share, sell or transfer your account or let others use your plan's usage.
- Tell us promptly at support@brisqal.com if you suspect unauthorized use. You can revoke VS Code access at any time from the Billing page.
3. The Service
Brisqal is an AI assistant that answers questions, works with files and images you upload, can search and read web pages, and, through Brisqal Code, can read, edit and run code in your projects. We use our own software together with third-party AI models, search and infrastructure services to provide it.
We continuously improve the Service. We may add, change or remove features, models, model names, reasoning options and integrations, and we may change which underlying technology powers a feature, at any time. If a change materially reduces what you have paid for, we will tell you in advance where reasonably possible, and you may cancel as described in the Billing & Refund Policy.
4. Plans, payment and usage limits
- Paid plans are subscriptions billed in advance every 30 days and renew automatically until you cancel. You can cancel anytime from the Billing page; you keep access until the end of the period you paid for.
- Each plan includes a usage allowance measured in rolling 5-hour and weekly windows and a fair-use limit per billing period, as shown on the Plans page and in the app. When a limit is reached, you must wait for it to reset or upgrade. Message counts on the Plans page are estimates for average use, not guarantees.
- Prices, upgrades, downgrades, renewals and refunds are governed by the Billing & Refund Policy.
5. Your content
"Input" means the prompts, messages, files, images, code and other material you submit to the Service. "Output" means the responses the Service generates for you. Input and Output together are "Your Content".
- You keep your rights. As between you and us, and to the extent permitted by law, you retain your rights in your Input and we assign to you any rights we have in the Output.
- Licence to us. You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, process, transmit and display Your Content only as needed to provide, secure and support the Service (including sending it to our AI model and search providers to generate responses), to comply with the law and to enforce these Terms. We do not sell Your Content and we do not use it to train AI models.
- Your responsibility. You confirm that you have all rights and permissions needed to submit your Input, and that your Input and your use of Output do not violate the law or anyone's rights.
- Output is not unique. Other users may receive similar or identical Output. Output may not be protected by copyright, and it may resemble existing third-party material. You are responsible for checking whether you may use Output for your purpose.
- Shared links. If you share a conversation, anyone with the link can view it until you stop sharing. Do not share conversations that contain confidential or personal information.
- Sensitive information. Do not submit information you are not allowed to disclose, such as other people's sensitive personal data, secrets, passwords or regulated data, unless you have the right to do so.
6. AI output: accuracy and reliance
AI can be wrong. Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, offensive or unsuitable, and it is not professional (medical, legal, financial or other) advice. You must evaluate Output for accuracy and suitability before relying on it, and you must not use it as the sole basis for decisions that could significantly affect you or others.
The AI Output Disclaimer explains these limitations in detail and forms part of these Terms.
7. Brisqal Code (VS Code extension)
Brisqal Code can read your workspace, edit files and run commands on your computer. You choose its permission mode. You are responsible for reviewing proposed changes and commands, for any changes and commands you approve or allow to run automatically (including in "auto-accept edits" and "Full auto" modes), and for keeping backups and using version control. We are not responsible for loss of data, damage to your systems or other consequences of actions you approved or allowed.
8. Acceptable use
You must follow the Acceptable Use Policy. Among other things, you may not use the Service for illegal or harmful purposes, abuse or overload it, circumvent usage limits or safety measures, resell it, or try to extract its prompts, models, source code or underlying technology.
9. Third-party services and content
The Service relies on third-party providers (for example AI model, web search, hosting and payment providers) and can show content from third-party websites. We are not responsible for third-party websites or content, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms. Availability of third-party services may affect the Service.
10. Our intellectual property and feedback
The Service, including its software, design, brand names, logos and documentation, belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by law. These Terms give you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service in line with these Terms; they do not give you any other rights in it. If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without any obligation to you.
11. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service and all Output are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy and quiet enjoyment. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free, that Output will be accurate, complete or reliable, that any errors will be corrected, or that Your Content will not be lost.
12. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Brisqal and its affiliates, officers, employees, agents, suppliers and licensors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, arising out of or related to the Service, Output or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability for all claims arising out of or related to the Service or these Terms is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim and (b) US$100.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranties or liabilities to be excluded or limited. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions and limits above apply only to the extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
13. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Brisqal and its affiliates from claims, losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your Input, your use of Output, your violation of these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, or your violation of any law or third-party right. This section does not apply to consumers where the law does not allow it.
14. Suspension and termination
- You can stop using the Service at any time, cancel your plan from the Billing page, and ask us to delete your account.
- We may suspend or terminate your access, with notice where reasonably possible, if you materially or repeatedly breach these Terms, if required by law, if your use creates risk or harm for us, other users or third parties, or if your account is used fraudulently. If we terminate your account without cause, we will refund the unused portion of any prepaid period.
- Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 5, 6, 9 to 13, 16 and 17) survive.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If a change is material, we will notify you (for example in the app or by email) and ask you to accept the new version before you continue using the Service. The version and effective date are shown at the top of this page. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, stop using the Service and cancel your plan.
16. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the country in which Brisqal is established, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Before starting any formal proceeding, please contact us at support@brisqal.com so we can try to resolve the issue informally within 30 days. If you are a consumer, you may also have the right to bring proceedings in the courts of the country where you live, and mandatory consumer-protection laws of that country continue to apply.
17. General
- These Terms, together with the documents they refer to, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
- If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest of these Terms remain in effect.
- Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
- You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, or to an affiliate.
- We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
