Our Content

The Service itself, including its design, features, and functionality, is owned by us and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute our Service without permission.

Privacy and Data

Your privacy is important to us. Our collection and use of personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service, you consent to the collection and use of information as outlined in our Privacy Policy.

Free Service

Group eCard Creator is provided free of charge. We reserve the right to modify our service offerings, but we're committed to keeping core functionality free forever. We may introduce optional premium features in the future, but basic card creation and sharing will always remain free.

Service Availability

While we strive to keep the Service available 24/7, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or factors beyond our control. We'll do our best to minimize disruptions and provide advance notice when possible.

Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• • We disclaim all warranties, express or implied
• • We're not responsible for user-generated content
• • We're not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages
• • Our total liability is limited to $100 or the amount you paid us (which is $0)
• • Some jurisdictions don't allow these limitations, so they may not apply to you

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Service, your content, or your violation of these Terms.

Termination

Either party may terminate this agreement at any time:

• • You can stop using the Service at any time

• • We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms
• • We may discontinue the Service with reasonable notice

Content Removal

We reserve the right to remove any content that violates these Terms or applicable laws. We'll make reasonable efforts to notify you before removing content, but we may remove content immediately if it poses a safety risk or legal liability.

Dispute Resolution

We encourage resolving disputes through direct communication. If you have a concern, please contact us at hello@groupecard.com. For legal disputes that cannot be resolved informally, both parties agree to resolve disputes through binding arbitration rather than court proceedings, except for small claims court matters.

Governing Law

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

Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll post the updated Terms on this page and update the "last updated" date. If changes are significant, we'll notify users via email (if you have an account) or through the Service. Your continued use after changes become effective means you accept the new Terms.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
