Ownership and Rights

You retain all ownership rights to your User Content. However, by submitting User Content to AProToMe, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, reproduce, distribute, display, and perform your User Content in connection with operating and promoting our platform.

Your Responsibilities

By uploading User Content, you represent and warrant that:

• You own or have the necessary rights and permissions to use and authorize us to use your User Content
• Your User Content does not infringe on the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other rights of any third party
• Your User Content complies with these Terms of Service and all applicable laws

• Contains false, misleading, or deceptive information

• Contains offensive, discriminatory, or harassing material
• Violates any applicable laws or regulations
• Contains viruses, malware, or other harmful code

No Endorsement

We do not endorse any User Content or opinions expressed by users. User Content does not reflect our views or opinions.

8. Membership, Billing, and Payments

Free accounts and optional membership

Creating an account and setting up a business profile is free and does not enroll you in a paid subscription. Customers use AProToMe free. Public matching and paid business features require applicable approval and go-live requirements and an active Pro membership or a trial expressly granted by AProToMe.

Recurring subscriptions

The standard Pro membership is $199 per month, plus applicable taxes, unless a valid promotional offer applies. By completing subscription checkout, you authorize recurring charges at the amount and frequency disclosed at checkout until you cancel. Account creation alone does not authorize subscription charges. Membership payments are processed through Stripe.

Cancellation and refunds

You may cancel future subscription renewals at any time through your account’s subscription settings. Paid access continues through the end of the current paid billing period, subject to these terms. Cancellation does not itself delete your account.

Except where required by applicable law, subscription payments are non-refundable, including unused portions of a billing period. AProToMe may review refund requests individually and grant a refund or credit at its discretion. Exceptions are not guaranteed. Contact contact@aprotome.com for billing questions or refund requests.

Invited trials and promotional offers

Trials are granted manually to selected businesses. Creating an account does not start a trial, and a manually granted trial does not by itself authorize paid billing. We communicate the duration and access included with each trial.

Promotional codes and discounts apply only to eligible businesses under the terms of each offer, including its amount, duration, expiration, and restrictions. After a temporary discount expires, billing returns to the standard recurring price disclosed for that subscription unless otherwise stated in the offer.

Requests and services

Membership does not guarantee any number of views, requests, jobs, customers, or earnings. Demand varies by service and location. Accepting a callback request expresses interest in discussing a job and is not a confirmed booking. Customers and service providers agree directly on work, pricing, and payment. Payments and refunds for work performed by a service provider are separate from AProToMe membership charges and are governed by their agreement and applicable law.

9. Prohibited Activities

• Violating any applicable laws or regulations
• Providing false or misleading information
• Harassing or discriminating against other users
• Attempting to circumvent our security measures
• Using the platform for illegal or unauthorized purposes

10. Intellectual Property

The AProToMe platform, including its content, features, and functionality, is owned by us and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

11. Limitation of Liability

AProToMe is not liable for any damages arising from the use of our platform, including but not limited to service disputes, data loss, or business interruptions.

12. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account at any time for violations of these terms. You may also terminate your account at any time.

13. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new terms on this page.
