Customer Agreement

Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Last Updated: [LAST UPDATED]
Governing Law: [GOVERNING LAW / JURISDICTION]

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between Knogents (“Knogents”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) and the business entity or individual (“Customer”, “you”, or “your”) accessing or using the Knogents website, software-as-a-service platform, AI agent studio, APIs, and embeddable chatbot widgets (collectively, the “Service”).

By creating an account, clicking “I Agree”, deploying an embed script to your website, or otherwise accessing the Service, you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority to bind yourself or the legal entity on whose behalf you act. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.

1. Eligibility & Account Responsibility

1.1 Age & Authority: The Service is exclusively a business-to-business (B2B) platform. You must be at least 18 years of age and legally capable of entering into binding contracts under applicable law to register for an account.

1.2 Account Security: You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials (email and password or Google OAuth account). You must notify Knogents immediately of any unauthorized access or security breach regarding your account. Knogents cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain credential confidentiality.

1.3 Team Workspaces: While the platform database contains schema structures designed for multi-user team member collaboration (project_members), this feature is currently disabled in production. Each account operates as a single-user tenant workspace until team sharing is formally made available.

2. Plans, Monthly Message Credits, and Add-ons

2.1 Subscription Tiers: Knogents offers Free, Basic, Standard, and custom subscription tiers. Each tier provides an allocated number of active AI agents, crawled data limits, and monthly message credits.

2.2 Monthly Message Credits & Credit Depletion: Each customer interaction with your chatbot consumes message credits from your monthly allowance. Credits reset at the start of each billing cycle and do not roll over to subsequent months.

Credit Exhaustion Behavior

When your monthly message credit allocation reaches zero, the chatbot will immediately stop generating AI completions and will display an “Agent currently unavailable” message to website visitors. Inquiries attempted after credit exhaustion are recorded in your account’s blocked requests log to notify you, but the AI will not respond until your monthly cycle resets or you purchase an additional message add-on pack.

2.3 Add-ons: Customers may purchase optional add-ons, including additional message credit packs, extra AI agents, and white-label branding removal. Add-ons are billed according to the terms displayed at purchase.

2.4 Billing & Payment Processor: Paid subscriptions and add-on transactions will be processed through our designated merchant payment gateway, Razorpay, once commercial billing is active. By providing payment information, you authorize our payment processor to charge the designated fees on a recurring basis. All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes.

2.5 Cancellation & Refunds: You may cancel your subscription at any time via your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current prepaid billing cycle. For details regarding refund eligibility and processing windows, please review our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

3. Acceptable Use & Content Warranties

You agree to use the Service in compliance with all applicable local, national, and international laws and regulations.

Customer Crawling & Document Ingestion Warranties:

When submitting URLs, sitemaps, or documents for automated crawling and vector indexing, you represent and warrant that:

  • You own, control, or have obtained all necessary written licenses, rights, and consents to crawl, reproduce, index, and process all submitted websites, files, and text.
  • You will NOT submit or instruct our crawlers to index third-party websites, competitors’ portals, paywalled repositories, or online services that you do not own or have explicit authorization to ingest.
  • Your content does not violate any third-party intellectual property, privacy, confidentiality, or proprietary rights.

Prohibited Conduct: You must not:

  • Use the Service to transmit unlawful, defamatory, harassing, sexually explicit, fraudulent, or harmful materials.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or extract underlying source code or algorithms of the Service.
  • Circumvent or attempt to circumvent rate limits, security controls, or tenant isolation boundaries.
  • Use the Service or generated model outputs to develop, train, or optimize competing machine learning models.
  • Deploy the widget in a deceptive manner intended to impersonate human support without disclosing its automated nature.

4. Customer Responsibilities to End Visitors

As between you and Knogents, you are solely responsible for all interactions between your deployed widget and your website visitors:

  • AI Transparency & Disclosure: You are legally required to inform end visitors that they are interacting with an artificial intelligence system (and not a human representative) and to maintain your own publicly accessible privacy policy.
  • Visitor Consent: You are responsible for obtaining any legally required consents under applicable consumer protection, telecommunications, and data protection laws (such as GDPR, CCPA, or Indian IT rules).
  • Sensitive Personal Data Restriction: You must NOT embed the Knogents chat widget on web pages displaying or collecting sensitive personal data, payment card numbers (PCI-DSS), protected health information (HIPAA), or sensitive credentials. Knogents is not certified for processing protected health or credit card repository data.

5. Artificial Intelligence Output Disclaimer

5.1 Probabilistic Outputs: The Service utilizes advanced machine learning and large language models (via OpenRouter, Z.ai, and Perplexity). While Knogents employs strict vector grounding techniques to minimize inaccuracies, AI outputs are probabilistic and may occasionally contain incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated statements (“hallucinations”).

5.2 No Professional Advice: AI-generated responses do NOT constitute professional legal, financial, medical, engineering, or tax advice. You and your end visitors must evaluate and verify the accuracy of all AI outputs before relying on them for critical transactions or decisions.

5.3 Review & Moderation: You acknowledge that Knogents does not pre-screen AI-generated outputs and that you assume all risks associated with deploying autonomous conversational agents on your domain.

6. Intellectual Property & Licenses

6.1 Customer Content: You retain all right, title, and ownership in and to the content, websites, files, trademarks, and documentation you upload or provide to the Service (“Customer Content”).

6.2 Limited Processing License: You grant Knogents a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, limited license to process, parse, store, generate vector embeddings for, and transmit your Customer Content solely as necessary to operate, deliver, improve, and secure the Service on your behalf.

6.3 Knogents Platform IP: Knogents and its licensors retain all right, title, and interest (including patent, copyright, and trade secret rights) in and to the Service, software, user interfaces, documentation, and all related technology. Nothing in these Terms grants you ownership in the platform.

7. Suspension & Termination

7.1 By Customer: You may discontinue use of the Service or terminate your account at any time through your account settings or by emailing [SUPPORT EMAIL].

7.2 By Knogents: We reserve the right to immediately suspend or terminate your account, disable your widget embed scripts, and delete ingested data if: (a) you breach these Terms; (b) your use threatens the security, integrity, or availability of the platform; (c) required by applicable law; or (d) for prolonged non-payment.

7.3 Effect of Termination: Upon termination, your right to access the Service will immediately cease, all deployed widgets will stop responding, and Knogents will permanently remove your stored data within thirty (30) days in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

8. Warranty Disclaimer

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE, WIDGETS, APIS, AND AI-GENERATED OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.

KNOGENTS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

9. Limitation of Liability

IN NO EVENT SHALL KNOGENTS, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR REPUTATIONAL DAMAGE) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE OR AI OUTPUTS.

KNOGENTS’ AGGREGATE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO KNOGENTS UNDER THESE TERMS IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE INCIDENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (USD $100) IF YOU ARE USING A FREE PLAN.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Knogents, its parent entity, affiliates, officers, and employees from and against any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable legal expenses arising out of or related to: (a) your Customer Content or any websites you crawled or uploaded; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your breach of applicable laws, including privacy and consumer protection regulations; or (d) any dispute between you and an end visitor of your website.

11. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [GOVERNING LAW / JURISDICTION], without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms shall be instituted exclusively in the competent courts located in [GOVERNING LAW / JURISDICTION], and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts.
