Terms of Service

Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Ligara ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service. Ligara may revise or update these Terms from time to time. Changes may be made at any time, but material changes become effective only after notice required by applicable law or expressly promised in these Terms. We may provide notice by email, in-account notice, posting revised Terms, or other reasonable means. Continued use after the applicable effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms, but does not itself authorize a paid subscription or recurring charge. Safety, fraud, abuse, security and legal requirements may be enforced immediately where appropriate, independently of subscription notice periods.

Account & Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You may not use Ligara for illegal, harmful, or deceptive purposes, including phishing, malware distribution, or impersonation.

Subscriptions & Billing

Eligible new users may receive 7 days of full access to their selected plan. A valid payment method is required to start that trial. Before authorizing checkout, you choose Creator or Pro and monthly or annual billing. The current plan price, currency, billing interval, taxes or applicable discounts, and first-charge date are displayed before checkout and control the authorized charge. No subscription charge occurs during the 7-day trial. At its end, the selected subscription automatically begins and Stripe charges the disclosed amount unless you cancel before the first charge. The subscription then renews automatically at the chosen billing interval until canceled. There is no minimum purchase obligation beyond the selected billing term unless expressly disclosed. Future price changes require advance notice as required by applicable law and these Terms; they do not retroactively change an already-authorized charge.

AI Usage Limits

Ligara's AI features (including the AI Page Builder and AI Creator Coach) are subject to the following monthly and daily usage limits based on your plan:

7-Day Free Trial / Creator Plan: 300 AI requests per month, with a daily limit of 20 AI requests per day.

Pro Plan: 1,000 AI requests per month, with a daily limit of 50 AI requests per day.

Usage limits reset monthly on your billing renewal date and daily at midnight UTC. Unused requests do not roll over to the next period. If you reach your monthly or daily limit, AI features will be temporarily unavailable until the limit resets. Ligara reserves the right to adjust usage limits with advance notice to subscribers.

Cancellation & Automatic Renewal

Cancel from Dashboard > Billing using the Stripe customer portal or equivalent billing controls. Cancellation before the first post-trial charge prevents that first charge. After a paid subscription begins, cancellation stops future renewal; access remains through the already-paid billing period unless otherwise disclosed or refunded. To avoid the next renewal charge, cancel before the disclosed renewal date. After subscription access ends, dashboard and subscription-feature access may be gated until you subscribe again; cancellation does not itself delete your account or content. Existing public Ligara pages remain live unless separately unpublished by you or restricted for safety, policy or legal reasons. We do not promise a fixed content-retention period under this section. If you cannot access cancellation, contact hello@ligara.bio.

Recurring amount, plan, interval, first-charge date and renewal terms are shown near checkout authorization. A retainable enrollment confirmation is sent after card-backed trial or subscription enrollment. Acknowledging a policy notice is receipt only and is never authorization for paid billing.

Limitation of Liability

Ligara is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim.

User Content License

By posting, uploading, or displaying any content on Ligara (including links, images, text, logos, or other materials), you grant Ligara a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to display, reproduce, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating and providing the Service. You retain full ownership of your content. This license ends when you delete your content or close your account, except where content has been shared publicly and cannot be retroactively removed from caches or third-party platforms.

Prohibited Content

You may not post, link to, or distribute any content on Ligara that: (a) is sexually explicit or pornographic; (b) depicts or promotes violence, self-harm, or harm to others; (c) constitutes hate speech, harassment, or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or any other protected characteristic; (d) exploits, abuses, or endangers minors in any way, including child sexual abuse material (CSAM); (e) promotes or facilitates illegal activity, including drug sales, weapons trafficking, gambling, or financial fraud; (f) constitutes a Ponzi scheme, pyramid scheme, multi-level marketing deception, or any fraudulent investment solicitation; (g) promotes or facilitates cryptocurrency scams, pump-and-dump schemes, or unauthorized token sales; (h) involves the sale of counterfeit goods or infringes any third party's intellectual property rights; (i) impersonates any person, brand, public figure, or organization in a misleading or deceptive manner; (j) contains malware, viruses, phishing links, or any code designed to harm users or systems; or (k) violates any applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation. Ligara reserves the right to remove any content that violates this section and to suspend or terminate accounts responsible for such content without notice.

Intellectual Property & DMCA

All content, trademarks, logos, and software comprising the Ligara platform are the property of Ligara or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, or create derivative works of Ligara's platform or branding without express written permission.

If you believe that content on a Ligara user's profile infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA takedown notice to hello@ligara.bio with the subject line "DMCA Notice." Your notice must include: (1) a description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed; (2) the specific URL on Ligara where the infringing content appears; (3) your contact information; (4) a statement that you have a good faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner; and (5) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf. Ligara will respond to valid DMCA notices in accordance with applicable law and will terminate accounts of repeat infringers.

Third-Party Links

Ligara allows users to add links to external websites and platforms. Ligara does not endorse, control, or assume any responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or accuracy of any third-party websites linked from user profiles. Visiting external links is at your own risk. Ligara is not liable for any harm, loss, or damage arising from your interaction with third-party websites or services.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Ligara and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms; (b) content you post or distribute on Ligara; (c) your violation of any third party's rights, including intellectual property or privacy rights; or (d) any claim that your content or use of the platform caused harm to a third party. Ligara reserves the right to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with Ligara's defense of such claims.

Termination

Ligara may hide links or profiles, remove prohibited content, suspend, restrict or terminate accounts for phishing, malware, fraud, impersonation, illegal or prohibited content, abuse, security risks or legal requirements, immediately where appropriate. These actions are independent of subscription-transition notice periods. Failure to maintain required subscription access may gate dashboard and subscription features after the applicable trial, paid term or notified transition period; it does not itself authorize billing or require removal of public pages. Account closure and content removal remain subject to applicable law and our Privacy Policy. Contact hello@ligara.bio for account-closure assistance.

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Service shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Illinois, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

Before filing any legal claim, you agree to contact Ligara at hello@ligara.bio to attempt to resolve the dispute informally. If a resolution cannot be reached within 30 days, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), except that either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction. YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. If this class action waiver is found unenforceable, then the arbitration agreement shall be null and void with respect to that claim.

Intended Use

Ligara may be used by creators, influencers, coaches, podcasters, digital-product sellers, legitimate businesses, SaaS providers and compliant direct sellers to manage a digital presence and share lawful content. Ordinary business use is not prohibited merely because it is business use. All users must comply with these Terms, applicable laws and the relevant subscription requirements.

Prohibited Uses

You may not use Ligara for deceptive invoice, proforma or document-delivery schemes; client-delivery or file-sharing workflows used to commit fraud; credential harvesting or fake verification; phishing; malware or harmful redirects; impersonation; spam or mass abuse; illegal goods or services; or other deceptive, harmful or unlawful activity. Legitimate business, SaaS, document-sharing and direct-selling activity is permitted when compliant with these Terms and applicable law. Ligara may immediately remove or hide offending content and suspend or terminate accounts for safety or policy violations. Single ambiguous words or a business category alone do not establish a violation.

Existing User Transition

Legitimate customer accounts created before publication of the new subscription policy receive advance written notice. Their existing account access remains unchanged through November 2, 2026; no existing trial or access arrangement is cut short during that period, and no card is required before November 3. The new subscription structure becomes effective 12:00 AM Central Time on November 3, 2026. Existing users are never automatically enrolled or charged merely because these Terms change. Continued dashboard and subscription-feature access requires affirmatively choosing Creator or Pro and providing payment details; an existing paid subscription already satisfies this requirement. If a user does nothing, dashboard and subscription features may be gated at the effective date. Public Ligara pages remain live unless separately removed for safety, policy or legal reasons.

The previously promised minimum thirty (30) days of advance written notice for accounts created on or before July 7, 2026 remains applicable to this transition. Receipt or acknowledgment of the notice is not consent to recurring billing. Internal admin accounts are exempt. Banned or safety-restricted accounts are excluded from customer transition messaging; immediate safety, abuse, fraud and legal enforcement remains independent of this transition.
