The Service and its original content, features, and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of the EB2 Project and its licensors. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works, publicly display, or otherwise exploit any of our content without prior written permission.

8. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and access to the Service at our discretion, without prior notice, if you violate these Terms or engage in activities we consider harmful to the Service or other users. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease immediately. If the platform is terminated for any reason, users will be notified 30 days in advance to back up their data. After this period, data will be permanently deleted.

9. Refund Policy

There will be no refund of paid fees in the event of subscription cancellation or account deletion. The subscription will remain active until the end of the current paid period. Canceling before the cycle ends does not result in a refund, and the service will continue until the end of the period.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, EB2 Project shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, service interruptions, or technical failures. The user is responsible for maintaining adequate backups of their files and data.

11. Force Majeure

12. AI Training and Data Usage

The user consents to having their petition data used for training our Artificial Intelligence (AI). Identifiable data will be anonymized to protect privacy. Files will be used to improve our services and will then be permanently deleted.

13. Account Cancellation and Data Deletion

In the event of subscription cancellation, non-payment, or account deletion, all identifiable data will be immediately pseudonymized. The account will not be recoverable, and a new account will need to be created. The user agrees to back up all their files before canceling the account. Petition data will be used for AI training and then permanently deleted.
