Terms & Conditions

1. Who you are contracting with

The Agent's Read (the "Service") is operated by Sarah Ulicny ("we", "us", "our"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

2. The Service

The Service provides AI-generated literary assessments of manuscripts, queries, and writing samples. Each paid assessment consumes one credit. Assessments are delivered instantly upon submission.

Important: AI-generated assessments are for informational and educational purposes only. They are not a guarantee of publication, agent representation, or commercial success. They are not professional editorial, legal, or business advice. You are responsible for verifying anything you act upon.

3. Your account

You must provide accurate information and keep your account credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account. You must be of legal age to form a binding contract.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to: use the Service unlawfully; submit content that infringes third-party rights; attempt to reverse engineer, scrape, or interfere with the Service; submit malware or probe for vulnerabilities; misuse the AI to generate disallowed content (e.g. illegal, hateful, or harassing material).

5. Your content

You retain all ownership of manuscripts and content you submit. You grant us a limited license to process your content solely to deliver the assessment. We do not claim rights in your work and do not use it to train third-party models.

6. AI outputs

Assessments are generated by AI and may contain inaccuracies. You are responsible for how you use the outputs. Outputs should not be relied upon as professional advice. We may filter, refuse, or moderate outputs at our discretion.

7. Payments and refunds

Payments are processed by Stripe. By purchasing, you agree to Stripe's consumer terms. Refunds are described in our Refund Policy.

8. Our IP

The Service, including its software, design, and branding, is owned by us and protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service. You may not resell or redistribute the Service.

9. Service level

We do not guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access for material breach, non-payment, security or fraud risk, or repeated policy violations.

11. Warranties and liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Our aggregate liability is capped at the fees you paid to us in the prior 12 months. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or special damages, including lost profits, data, or goodwill. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, death, or personal injury where law prohibits such exclusion.

12. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your content, your unlawful use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms.

13. Changes

We may update these Terms. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
