By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Vilva provides online software, APIs, and mobile applications that allow users to create, store, visualize, and share graph‑based notes and AI‑generated content.
You must be at least 13 years old (or older if required by law in your jurisdiction) and capable of forming a binding contract. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and all activity under your account.
"User Content" means any data, text, files, graphics, or other material you upload, post, or otherwise transmit via the Service.
Except for User Content, the Service and all software, designs, text, graphics, and trademarks are the exclusive property of Vilva or its licensors and are protected by U.S. and international IP laws. We grant you a limited, revocable, non‑transferable license to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.
You agree not to:
Vilva may generate or transform content using machine‑learning models. AI responses are probabilistic and may contain errors or biased output. You are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy and legality of any AI‑generated content before relying on or distributing it. Use of AI output should comply with applicable fair‑use laws and third‑party rights.
Some features require payment. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are non‑refundable except as required by law. Subscription plans automatically renew unless canceled before the end of the current term. You authorize us (and our payment processors) to charge your payment method.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that violates these Terms or is otherwise harmful.
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." While we do not guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, we make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure its security in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Except for these efforts, Vilva disclaims all warranties.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Vilva and its affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, or goodwill arising out of or related to the Service or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility. Our aggregate liability shall not exceed the greater of (a) $100 or (b) the amounts you paid to Vilva in the 12 months preceding the claim.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Vilva, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, or expenses arising out of your use of the Service or violation of these Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, USA, without regard to conflict‑of‑law principles. Any dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Cook County, Illinois, unless mandatory arbitration is required under applicable law. You and Vilva waive any right to a jury trial.
We may modify the Service or these Terms at any time. If changes are material, we will notify you via the Service or email. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any supplemental agreements, constitute the entire agreement between you and Vilva. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions will remain in full force.
For questions about these Terms, email support@vilva.ai or write to: Vilva, Inc., 1412, W Chase Ave, 403, Chicago, IL 60626, USA.
