1. Service Overview

KaraokeForge is a web-based application that enables users to create karaoke-style videos using AI-based lyrics synchronization and music separation tools. The Service acts solely as a technical tool and platform for users to process their own content. We do not endorse, pre-screen, or assume responsibility for any user-generated content.

2. Eligibility and User Responsibility

The Service is intended for users aged 13 and older. You are solely and exclusively responsible for ensuring your use of the Service and any content you create, upload, or process through it complies with all applicable local, provincial, federal, and international laws, rules, and regulations, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to copyright, intellectual property, privacy, and data protection.

3. Account Registration

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep it up to date. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

4. Subscription and Payments

KaraokeForge is offered via pay-per-use or subscription plans. All payments are processed by secure third-party providers such as Stripe. You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes in accordance with the chosen plan. All payment information is handled by the third-party provider and is not stored by us.

5. Refund Policy

Refunds are only issued for verified technical failures of the Service (e.g., a complete failure to export a video after payment, or a system error preventing the core functionality from being delivered). No refunds are offered for subjective dissatisfaction with the output, user error, or if a credit has been successfully used to initiate a process, even if the resulting output is not as expected due to the nature of AI or user input.

6. User Content and Ownership

You retain all ownership rights to any content, including audio, visual, or textual material, that you upload, create, or generate using the Service ("User Content"). By uploading or creating User Content, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, store, display, reproduce, modify, adapt, perform, and distribute your User Content solely for the purpose of operating, developing, providing, and improving the Service as requested by you. This license terminates when you delete your User Content from the Service, except where your User Content has been shared with others and they have not deleted it. You are solely responsible for backing up your User Content. We are not responsible for any loss or corruption of your User Content.

7. Copyright and Content Responsibility

You are solely and exclusively responsible for ensuring that any User Content you upload, use, or create through the Service, including but not limited to lyrics, audio, video, and any imported third-party material (e.g., from YouTube or other sources), complies with all applicable copyright laws, intellectual property rights, and any other relevant legal requirements.
