1. Accepting these terms

You accept these terms when you check the box that says so in Dabar. If you use Dabar for a business or for a client, you confirm that you have authority to bind that business or client, and “you” includes them. You must be at least 18 years old and able to sign a contract.

2. What Dabar does

Dabar uses artificial intelligence (“AI”) to design, write and edit websites from your instructions, hosts them, and lets you buy and connect domain names. Features, limits and prices of each plan are shown in the app at the time you buy. We may improve, change or remove features. If we remove a paid feature you rely on in a way that materially reduces your plan, you may cancel and ask for a prorated refund of the unused prepaid period.

Emethel also offers other products, such as Emethel ShopCore and Emethel TimeClock, which have their own terms. These terms apply only to Dabar. Payments for Dabar are processed by Emethel Technologies LLC: your receipts say “Dabar”, and your card or bank statement may show “EMETHEL TECHNOLOGIES”.

3. Your account

• You sign in with a one-time code sent to your email. Keep access to that email secure; anyone who controls it can enter your account.
• Give us accurate information and keep it up to date.
• You are responsible for everything done through your account and by people you invite to your sites.
• Tell us right away at legal@emethel.com if you think your account was accessed without permission.

4. Sites, workspaces and teams

Each site belongs to a workspace. The person who created the workspace or holds the “owner” role controls the site, its plan and who has access. Owners can invite administrators and editors. An agency or designer that builds a site for a client must have the client's permission, and the client may ask to become the owner. If there is a dispute about who controls a site, we may follow the instructions of the person who pays for its plan, or of the person named as registrant of its domain, or suspend changes until the parties agree.

5. Plans, payments and renewal

• Automatic renewal. Paid plans are subscriptions that renew automatically every month or every year, at the price shown when you subscribed, until you cancel. You authorize us and our payment processor, Stripe, to charge your payment method at each renewal.
• Introductory price. When offered, the first month of a monthly Esencial plan costs $0.99 once per customer. After that month, the plan renews at its regular monthly price shown at checkout until you cancel.
• Founder price. The first 500 paid subscriptions, as counted by Dabar, receive a founder price. We will not raise the founder price of that subscription for as long as it stays active and paid without interruption. It ends if the subscription is cancelled or expires, and it cannot be transferred to another site or person. Taxes and new optional add-ons are not part of this promise.
• Cancelling. You can cancel online at any time from “Manage plan” in the studio. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period already paid, and you keep the plan until then.
• Changing plans. Upgrades are charged today in proportion to the time left in the period. Downgrades leave a credit for your next bills.
• Refunds. Payments are not refundable, except where these terms or the law say otherwise. We do not refund partial periods after cancelling.
• Price changes. We may change regular prices. For an existing subscription we will email you at least 30 days before the new price applies, and you can cancel before then.
• Reminders. For yearly plans we will email you before each renewal with the amount and how to cancel.
• Failed payments. If a payment fails, we may pause publishing, AI changes or the plan's features until it is paid.
• Taxes. Prices do not include taxes unless stated. You pay any sales or similar taxes that apply.
• Usage limits. AI changes, AI images and photo enhancements are monthly allowances. Unused allowances do not carry over and have no cash value.

6. Domain names

• We register domains through our registrar partner, Tucows (OpenSRS). Your domain is registered in the name of the registrant contact you provide, and that registrant is the domain's holder.
• When you buy a domain, you also accept the registrar's Domain Registration Agreement, the rules of the domain's registry, and ICANN's Registrants' Benefits and Responsibilities.
• You must give true and complete contact information and answer the registrar's verification email. A domain whose contact information is not verified may be suspended by the registrar.
• Domains are registered for one year. A .com costs $19.99 the first year and renews at $22.99 a year; other endings show their price before you buy. Domains renew with your Dabar billing until you cancel them. If a renewal is not paid, the domain may expire and could be lost.
• Once registered, a domain cannot be refunded.
• You can ask us to transfer a domain to another registrar. We will give you the transfer code, subject to registry rules such as the 60-day lock after a registration or transfer.
• Disputes about a domain's right to a name follow ICANN's Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy and the registry's rules.

7. Your content

“Your content” means everything you or your team give Dabar or publish with it: text, instructions, photos, logos, videos and the sites themselves. You keep ownership of your content. You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, process, adapt, display and deliver your content only to run, secure and improve Dabar and to provide it to you and your visitors. This license ends when your content is deleted, except for copies kept in backups for a limited time or as the law requires.

You confirm that you have the rights needed for your content, including permission from people who appear in your photos, and that your content and your sites follow the law and our Acceptable Use Policy.

8. AI-generated content

• Dabar's AI writes text, picks layouts and, on plans that include it, creates or edits images. AI can make mistakes, produce inaccurate or out-of-date statements, or create content similar to other works.
• You must review everything before you publish it. You are responsible for what your site says, including prices, health, legal, financial and professional claims, and any license, credential or result you describe.
• As between you and us, you own the AI output created for your sites, to the extent the law allows anyone to own it. We do not promise that AI output is unique, protected by copyright, or free of third-party rights.
• Do not present AI-created images as real photos of real people, patients, staff, premises or results.
• To produce AI content we send your instructions and related content to our AI providers, as described in our Privacy Policy.

9. Stock photos

The photo bank shows images from third-party libraries such as Pixabay. Those images are provided under the library's own license. They may not be resold as standalone files, and images showing people, logos or brands may require additional permission for some uses.

10. Your sites' visitors and data

You decide what your site asks its visitors for. You are responsible for telling them how you use their information, with your own privacy notice when the law requires it, and for following the laws that apply to your business. Dabar sites are not designed to collect or store health information protected by HIPAA, payment card numbers, government ID numbers or similar sensitive data. Do not use Dabar for that purpose unless we sign a separate written agreement with you.

11. Acceptable use and enforcement

You must follow our Acceptable Use Policy. We may remove content, suspend a site or a domain's connection, or close an account that breaks these terms or the law, that puts people or Dabar at risk, or when a court or authority requires it. When reasonable we will tell you first and give you a chance to fix it. We respond to copyright complaints under our Copyright and DMCA Policy.

12. Our platform

Dabar, its software, design system, templates, the motion effects, our brand and logos belong to Emethel or its licensors. We give you a limited, non-transferable right to use Dabar under these terms. Do not copy, resell or reverse engineer Dabar, access it with bots or scrapers, test its security without written permission, or use it to build a competing service. If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without any obligation to you.

13. Third-party services

Dabar relies on other companies, such as Stripe for payments, Tucows/OpenSRS for domains, our hosting and database providers, and AI providers. Their services have their own terms. We are not responsible for their outages or acts, but we will work to limit the impact on you.

14. Ending your use

You can stop using Dabar and cancel your plans at any time. If your plan ends, your sites may go offline or show the Dabar badge, and editing may be limited. We keep your sites and content for at least 30 days after a paid plan ends, so you can come back or ask us for a copy of your site's files; after that we may delete them. Domains you own stay yours: you can transfer them as described in section 6. Sections 7 to 10 and 12 to 19 continue after these terms end, as far as they apply.

15. Disclaimers

Dabar is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not promise that Dabar will be uninterrupted or error-free, that AI output will be accurate, or that your site will reach any search ranking, number of visitors or sales.

16. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, Emethel and its members, employees and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill, even if we were told they were possible. Our total liability for all claims about Dabar is limited to the greater of the amounts you paid us for Dabar in the 12 months before the claim arose, or US$100. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.

17. Disputes, arbitration and class-action waiver

Talk to us first. Before filing a claim, write to legal@emethel.com describing the problem and what you want. We will try to resolve it within 60 days.

Arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, you and Emethel agree to resolve any dispute about Dabar or these terms by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or its Commercial Arbitration Rules if you use Dabar for a business), instead of in court. Either of us may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either of us may ask a court to stop the misuse of intellectual property.

No class actions. Claims may be brought only individually, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective or representative proceeding.

Opting out. You can opt out of this section within 30 days after you first accept these terms by emailing legal@emethel.com with your name, account email and a statement that you opt out of arbitration.

18. Indemnity

If you use Dabar for a business, you will defend and indemnify Emethel against third-party claims, and related costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, that arise from your content, your sites, your domains or your breach of these terms or the law.

19. General terms

• Governing law. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable federal law, including the Federal Arbitration Act, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to section 17, courts located in Florida have exclusive jurisdiction.
• Changes. We may update these terms. For material changes we will notify you by email or in the app at least 30 days before they take effect, and the app will ask you to accept the new version to keep using it.
• Notices. We send notices to your account email. Send legal notices to legal@emethel.com and to 9416 SW 8th Terrace, Miami, FL 33174, USA.
• Other. If part of these terms cannot be enforced, the rest stays in effect. Not enforcing a right is not a waiver. You may not transfer these terms without our consent; we may transfer them in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets. Events outside our reasonable control excuse delays. These terms, together with the policies they link to, are the entire agreement between us about Dabar.
• Language. We provide these terms in English and Spanish. If the versions differ, the English version controls.
