Terms of Service

Last Updated: June 8th, 2023

Welcome to Speaknix! Before you dive into our platform and utilize the myriad of services we offer at https://www.speaknix.com ("Website") and other Speaknix-related sites, applications, communications, and services ("Services"), please take a moment to carefully review these Terms of Service (“Terms”, “ToS”). These Terms govern your access to and use of our Services and are a binding legal agreement between you and Speaknix, Inc. (“Speaknix”, “Us”, “We”, or “Our”).

1. Acceptance of Terms

1.1. By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not access or use our Services.

You confirm that: (a) you meet the “Minimum Age” requirement (specified below); (b) you will maintain only one account per Service, registered under your true identity; and (c) you are not prohibited by Speaknix from using the Services. Creating accounts with false information or maintaining multiple/duplicate accounts is a breach of these Terms.

“Minimum Age” refers to being at least 16 years of age. However, if local laws stipulate a higher age for Speaknix to lawfully provide the Services to you without parental consent (including processing your personal information), then that higher age applies.

1.2. External Links

Our Services may feature links to third-party websites or services not owned or controlled by Speaknix. We are not responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services. We disclaim all liability arising from your use of or reliance on any third-party websites or services.

1.3. Account Termination

We may terminate or suspend your access to our Services without notice or liability for any breach of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Services will cease immediately. You may terminate your account by discontinuing use of the Services.

1.4. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will provide notice of material changes at least 30 days in advance. By continuing to access or use our Services after revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, you must stop using the Services.

2. User Obligations

2.1. Account Integrity

When creating an account, you must provide accurate and up-to-date information. Failing to do so constitutes a breach of these Terms. You are responsible for safeguarding your password and any activities under your account. Notify us immediately upon discovering unauthorized use of your account.

2.2. Payments and Subscriptions

By purchasing any of our paid Services ("Subscription"), you agree to pay the applicable fees and taxes. Your purchase may be subject to exchange rates or location-based price differences.

If you have a Subscription, your payment method will be charged at the start or end of each period. Cancel before the renewal date to avoid further charges. Taxes are calculated based on the billing information provided at the time of purchase

2.3. Cancellation and Refunds

You may cancel your Subscription at any time. Upon cancellation, you'll retain access until the end of the billing period. No refunds will be provided for any Subscription once 24 hours have passed from payment confirmation. Speaknix is not liable for bank charges or overdrafts; resolution of such issues must be handled directly with your bank.

If you update your Subscription, the new Subscription terms will replace the existing ones immediately upon payment confirmation.

By using Speaknix's Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. Welcome to Speaknix, and we look forward to serving you!

- Utilize, replicate, modify, distribute, publish, and process the content and information you provide through our Services and those of third parties, without any further consent, notice, or compensation. This license has the following limitations:

The license is intended solely for the operation, enhancement, development, promotion, and improvement of Speaknix Services, including the research and creation of new ones. It allows us to share your content and information with third-party service providers who are contractually involved in delivering Speaknix Services, solely for service provision and not for data storage.

You can terminate this license for particular content by removing it from Speaknix Services or by closing your account. However, this does not apply to instances where the content has been shared with others within the Services and they have copied or stored it, and to the time required to remove it from backups and other systems.

While we may alter the format of your content (such as translating, resizing, or removing metadata), we will not change the meaning of your expression.

Since you retain ownership of your content, you are free to share it with others, including under Creative Commons licenses.

By providing suggestions or feedback about our Services, you permit Speaknix to use and share this information freely without compensation.

You commit to submitting content that is lawful and does not infringe on anyone's rights, including intellectual property rights, and that your profile information will be accurate.

Speaknix endeavors to provide you with uninterrupted Services.

Commercial rights exclude reselling or white labeling Speaknix Services for further distribution or licensing to third parties.

Certain use cases necessitate separate authorization for resale rights, which are not included in any subscription. These include web and mobile applications that emulate or provide access to Speaknix Studio or API functionalities for third-party resale.

Illegal, immoral, or defamatory purposes are prohibited in the use of our Services.

4. Custom Voice Cloning

Speaknix offers Voice Designing (Cloning) Services, enabling you to synthesize voice recordings resembling a Speaker by typing new words (“Cloned Voice”). A “Speaker” is an individual who has granted necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions for the use of their voice recordings to train the Cloning AI and to synthesize speech.

- You own the Submitted Files or have the required licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use them within our Services, including Voice Designing (Cloning).

Speaknix and its affiliates provide no assurances or guarantees regarding the Services, including any claims that the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free. The Services are offered on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Speaknix and its affiliates disclaim all implied or statutory warranties, including any warranties of title, data accuracy, non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose.

6. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision in these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding our Services, superseding any prior agreements regarding the Services.

7. General Terms

If any part of these Terms is deemed unenforceable, both parties agree that the court should modify the terms to make that part enforceable while maintaining its intent. If the court cannot do so, both parties agree to ask the court to remove the unenforceable part and still enforce the rest of these Terms.

These Terms (including any additional terms provided by us when you engage with a feature of the Services) represent the entire agreement between us regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements for the Services.

Failure by Speaknix to enforce a breach of these Terms does not waive our right to enforce these Terms. You may not assign or transfer your membership or use of Services without our consent. However, Speaknix may assign these Terms and our Agreement with you to its affiliates or a buyer without your consent. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.

The only way to provide us with legal notice is through contact@speaknix.com.
