Terms of Service
Effective as of [EFFECTIVE_DATE]
1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Lemus Digital LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), a [STATE OF FORMATION] limited liability company with its principal place of business at [STREET ADDRESS], [CITY], [STATE] [ZIP CODE], [COUNTRY].
By creating an account, logging in, or using the [PRODUCT_NAME] platform and related services (collectively, the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization (e.g., a photography business), you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
We may provide these Terms in more than one language. In case of conflict, the English version shall prevail.
2. Description of the Service
[PRODUCT_NAME] is a software-as-a-service platform designed for photographers and photography businesses. The Service allows you to:
- Create and manage photo galleries and deliver them to your clients
- Manage clients, sessions, and photography packages
- Invite team members and assign roles
- Use tools such as availability calendars, comments, and image selection/submission workflows
- Store and organize images and related data within the limits of your subscription plan
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not guarantee any particular business outcome, level of uptime, or that the Service will be error-free. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features or the entire Service with reasonable notice when practicable, except where prohibited by law.
3. Account and Registration
3.1 Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements.
3.2 Account Information
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when registering and to keep such information updated. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us promptly at [EMAIL_SUPPORT] of any unauthorized use of your account.
3.3 One Account per Organization
Unless we expressly allow otherwise, each organization or business should maintain one account. You may not create multiple accounts to circumvent usage limits or other restrictions.
4. Plans and Usage Limits
The Service is offered under a free plan and paid subscription plans (e.g., Basic, Professional, Enterprise). The specific features, limits (such as number of galleries, storage capacity), and pricing for each plan are described on our pricing page and in our Subscription and Payment Terms.
- You must use the Service within the limits of your current plan (e.g., maximum number of galleries, maximum storage).
- If you exceed your plan limits, we may prevent further use (e.g., creating new galleries or uploading new files) until you upgrade or reduce usage. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you before or when you approach or reach a limit.
- Downgrading your plan may require you to bring your usage within the new plan's limits before the downgrade takes effect. Failure to do so may result in read-only access or other restrictions until usage is compliant.
