Terms of Service.

1. Acceptance of the terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and C13 Software LLC (“we,” “us,” or “Praxis”). By accessing or using the Praxis marketing website or the Praxis application service (together, the “Service”), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility and account authority

You must be old enough to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction and have the authority to bind any entity you represent. Accounts are personal and may not be shared or transferred without authorization.

3. Account registration and security

You create an account through the registration process. You are responsible for keeping your password, recovery phrase, and trusted devices secure. We may use additional security measures to protect the Service and its users.

4. The Praxis service and its limitations

Praxis is a private workspace for notes, templates, an encrypted Vault, references, and guided workflows. The Service may include Search, News, and Images tools powered by Brave. The Service does not provide professional advice, guaranteed availability, or a complete backup solution.

5. Local storage and optional cloud synchronization

By default, Praxis works locally in your browser. If you enable cloud synchronization, your notes and Vault content are encrypted in the browser before being sent to Praxis Cloud. You may use the Service without enabling sync.

6. Encryption, passwords, trusted devices, and recovery phrases

Synced content is encrypted using keys derived from your credentials and recovery material. You are responsible for maintaining access to a valid password, recovery phrase, or trusted device. Praxis does not have a back door to your encrypted content.

7. Possibility of unrecoverable encrypted information

If you lose all valid unlocking and recovery methods, your encrypted content may become permanently inaccessible. Praxis cannot recover it. This is a fundamental consequence of real encryption, not a bug or limitation of our support.

8. User ownership of notes, files, and other content

You retain ownership of your notes, files, contacts, and other content you create or upload. You grant Praxis the limited license necessary to store, sync, and display your content to you as part of the Service.

9. Limited license needed to operate the service

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, process, and transmit your content solely to operate the Service. We do not use your content for advertising, model training, or unrelated purposes.

10. User responsibility for exports, external links, and shared information

When you export, share, or link to material outside Praxis, you are responsible for that copy. External links and shared content are governed by the terms of the recipient or third-party site.

11. Search, News, and Images provider results

Search results are provided by Brave. We do not endorse third-party results merely by displaying them. Search results may be incomplete, outdated, unavailable, or incorrect. Queries are sent to Brave to provide results.

12. Third-party content and intellectual-property rights

You may not upload content that infringes intellectual property, privacy, or other rights. We will respond to valid notices of infringement in accordance with applicable law.

13. Templates, workflows, and generated or transformed output

Templates and workflows help you structure and assemble your own material. Output is derived from your inputs and stored sources. Praxis does not claim ownership of your output, but cannot guarantee its accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose.

14. Prohibited conduct

You may not use the Service to harass, abuse, deceive, or harm others; to distribute malware or illegal content; to interfere with the Service; to circumvent limits or security; or to violate applicable law.

15. Upload restrictions, malware, executables, and abuse

Do not upload executables, malware, or content designed to harm systems or users. We may scan, quarantine, or remove abusive or dangerous material. File type limits are described in the Help system.

16. Storage, note-count, search, and API limits

Each plan has limits on storage, note count, and Search Tool Allowance. Current limits are shown in your account and on the Pricing page. We may update plan limits with notice as described in §20.

17. Service protection, throttling, and suspension

We may throttle or suspend access to protect the Service, other users, or to comply with law. We will try to provide notice when reasonably possible.

18. Paid subscriptions

Some features require a paid subscription. Paid plans are described on the Pricing page. Subscribing means you agree to the price and billing interval shown at checkout.

19. Billing, renewals, cancellations, refunds, and taxes

Billing is handled by Stripe; Praxis does not store full card details. Subscriptions renew automatically at the stated interval until canceled. You may cancel from your account settings. Applicable taxes are added based on your location.

To be finalized before launch: Cancellation effect (whether access ends immediately or at the end of the billing cycle).

To be finalized before launch: Refund policy.

20. Changes to plans or allowances

We may change plan names, prices, or allowances. Material changes will be announced in advance, and your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. Legacy plans may continue at their prior terms for existing subscribers until changed.

21. Account deletion and the trash/quarantine lifecycle

You may delete your account from your settings. Deleted content may enter a quarantine or trash period before permanent removal. Trash is retained for approximately 30 days. Account deletion timing is approximately 30 days. Some data may be retained as required by §22.

22. Retention required for security, fraud prevention, billing, or law

We may retain certain account, billing, and security records after deletion or closure as needed to comply with law, prevent fraud, enforce these Terms, or protect the Service. Retention periods are described in the Privacy Policy.

23. Beta, testing, or experimental functionality

We may offer beta or experimental features. These are provided as-is, may change or be removed, and are not guaranteed to become part of the paid Service.

24. Availability, maintenance, and changes to the service

We aim for reliable service but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Maintenance, outages, and changes may occur. The Service is provided on an as-available basis.

25. Warranty disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

26. Limits of liability

To the extent permitted by law, C13 Software LLC's liability is limited to the amount you paid for the Service in the twelve months before the claim, or a minimum amount to be finalized if you did not pay. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages. This is a draft provision requiring counsel review.

To be finalized before launch: Minimum liability amount for non-paying users (counsel).

27. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless C13 Software LLC and its personnel from claims arising from your use of the Service, your content, or your violation of these Terms. This is a draft provision requiring counsel review.

28. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if required by law. You may terminate your account at any time. Termination does not excuse accrued obligations.

29. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted with an updated effective date. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. The previous version will be archived.

30. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Venue is expected to be the state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida; arbitration, class-action, and dispute-resolution mechanics will be set in the final counsel-approved version. This is a draft provision requiring counsel review.

31. Contact information

The operator of Praxis is C13 Software LLC. For questions about these Terms, contact praxis-help@c13.io.

To be finalized before launch: Legal mailing address.
