Update Notice: This document has been revised and completely replaces any previous version. Please refer to the “Updated” and “Effective” dates above. Your continued use of the Site or Services after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

These Standard Service Terms apply to the use of Expertly’s AI Toolbar (the “Toolbar” or “services”).  By your use of the Toolbar you agree to the terms and they are automatically incorporated into any subscription that you have with Expertly Software, LLC (“Expertly,” “we” or “us”).

  1. Services

The Toolbar is designed in order to facilitate users in applying AI to business and personal matters, primarily to heighten quality and to automate tasks that involve some intelligence.  Your free or paid subscription allows you to use the Toolbar.  You may customize your Toolbar, or, as discussed below, hire Expertly or its affiliates to do so on your behalf.

  1. Subscription Plans

Expertly offers multiple subscription plans, including:

Basic Plans:

Expertly’s basic plans may start with a free trial and then move to a monthly subscription. This allows you to explore the core features of our services. This plan offers access to our standard tools and functionality, with self-service customization options.  You may also be able to buy customization services, as discussed below. The subscription price will adjust based on your usage, so you only pay for what you need as your needs grow.

Business and Enterprise Plans:

Pricing will be based on your usage and feature requirements and you will select what you want from time to time through our dashboard.

  1. Customization Services

If you are seeking more advanced customization, we also offer sales-driven engagements. These plans include personalized setup and custom features tailored to your unique requirements—things you can't easily do on your own. Any custom developments made specifically for you as part of these engagements will remain the intellectual property of Expertly, but your data will remain yours and you will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual license to use such custom developments for your internal business purposes.

AI-generated content provided by the Services may be incomplete, inaccurate, or subject to error. You are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy, reliability, and legality of any output before using it in any critical or business-sensitive context.

  1. Subscription Fees and Payment

Expertly’s subscription plans start either right away or after a free trial period, and will be at the rate set forth in your subscription or agreement. The price will vary based on your usage of the services, with fees increasing as your usage grows. The exact price for each subscription tier will be displayed at the time of registration or renewal.

Payments for in-app purchases and subscriptions processed through third-party platforms, including the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, are subject to the payment terms of those platforms. Expertly is not responsible for disputes related to payment processing conducted through these services.

  1. Free Trial:

You may be eligible for a free trial period, which provides access to the services at no charge for a specified duration. If you have previously provided a method of payment, you will automatically be charged the applicable fees once the free trial ends.

  1. Usage Based Pricing

Your subscription may be subject to additional charges based on your level of usage. As your usage of the services increases, your subscription fees will be adjusted accordingly. Pricing changes due to increased usage will be communicated to you in advance.

  1. Self-Service Customization

If you are on the lower-tier subscription plan, any customization of the services is handled self-service via the available tools and features provided. You can personalize and configure the services based on your needs, without the need for assistance from our support team.

  1. License Limitations

The license to use the Toolbar granted is subject to the following restrictions: (a) usage is limited to the number of users specified in your subscription plan, (b) the software may only be used within the geographic region specified in your account, and (c) usage is limited to the features and functionality included in your chosen subscription plan.

You agree not to modify, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the software that is part of the Toolbar, except where this right is required by law. Any such unauthorized use shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement and may result in the immediate termination of the customer's access to the services.

Additionally, you agree not to (a) use the Services for competitive analysis, building a competitive product, or any unlawful purpose; (b) rent, lease, sublicense, or distribute the Services to any third party without our written consent; (c) circumvent any Service restrictions, security measures, or access limits imposed by us.

The Software may request certain permissions to provide its intended functionality, including but not limited to accessing browser data, clipboard contents, and online resources. By installing and using the Software, you acknowledge that such permissions are necessary for its operation and agree to grant them as specified during installation.

  1. Payment Methods

Expertly accepts payment via ACH, credit card and other online payment methods such as PayPal. By providing payment information, you authorize Expertly to charge your chosen payment method on a recurring basis for the duration of your subscription.

  1. Billing Cycle

Subscription fees are billed on a monthly basis, typically under an annual contract unless otherwise specified. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the contracted term, unless you cancel the subscription before the renewal date. Monthly contracts may be available at a different rate, as outlined in your agreement.

Unless you cancel your subscription before the renewal date, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the billing cycle for the same term at the current rate. Renewal terms and rates will be provided before the subscription renewal date if they have changed.

  1. Late Payments

If your payment is not received or cannot be processed for any reason, Expertly may suspend or terminate your access to the services until payment is successfully processed. Suspension does not waive your obligation to pay any outstanding or future subscription fees due under your contracted term. If your account remains unpaid, Expertly reserves the right to pursue collection for the full amount owed under the terms of your contract.

  1. Rate Changes

Expertly reserves the right to modify or adjust the subscription fees at any time. In the event of a rate change, we will provide you with at least (30) days' notice prior to the change taking effect. The notice will be sent via email or through an in-app notification, and will include details about the new pricing structure. If you do not agree to the new pricing, you may cancel the subscription before the rate change takes effect. If you continue to use the services after the new rates have been implemented, you are deemed to have accepted the new pricing.

  1. Term and Termination

Your subscription will begin on the date you sign up for the services or start the free trial, whichever occurs first, and will continue for the contracted term as specified in your agreement.

You may cancel the subscription at any time through your account settings, if applicable, or by contacting customer support. Unless otherwise stated, you will continue to have access to the services until the end of the contracted term or any applicable notice period, after which the subscription will be terminated. Expertly may immediately suspend or terminate your access to the services if you violate these terms, fail to pay subscription fees, or engage in any activity that disrupts or harms the services or other users.. Expertly also reserves the right to terminate your access to the services on sixty (60) days' notice for any or no reason. Expertly may limit your usage the service as it deems necessary.

Notwithstanding termination of this Agreement, all intellectual property obligations shall survive and remain in full force and effect.

Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall cease using the other party's confidential information and intellectual property, except as necessary to fulfill post-termination obligations. You will pay any outstanding balance through the end of the contracted term, unless otherwise specified in your agreement.

Upon termination of your subscription, you may request to retrieve certain customer-generated content or account data through the available interfaces, unless prohibited by law or contractual restrictions. Data made available for retrieval is limited to content you provided or created directly within the Services. After a 30-day period, such data may be deleted, unless retention is required by law or otherwise agreed in writing.

Continued use of the Services after an update to the Sub-processor list will be deemed acceptance of the new Sub-processors.
