App for Authors (the “App”), our website located at PulseToPage.com (the “Site”), and any related services, features, content, community spaces, and virtual sessions we offer (collectively, the “Services”).
We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services (in whole or in part) at any time. We may also modify these Terms from time to time by posting an updated “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically for updates. Your continued access to or use of the Services after changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

9.2 Feedback
If you provide Company (directly or through others acting on your behalf) any suggestions, enhancement requests, recommendations, or other feedback regarding the Services (“Feedback”), you hereby grant Company a fully paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), assignable, irrevocable, and perpetual license to implement, use, modify, commercially exploit, incorporate into the Services, and otherwise use such Feedback for any purpose, without restriction and without compensation to you.
10) Plans, Billing, Cancellation, and Refund Policy
10.1 Plan Purchases and Billing Authorization
When you purchase a Plan, you authorize Company (and our payment processors) to charge your selected payment method for the listed price, plus any applicable taxes. Prices and included features are described on the applicable product or checkout page.
10.2 No Automatic Renewal for Fixed-Term Plans and Extensions (Unless Explicitly Stated)
-
Fixed-Term Plans end automatically at the end of their stated term (e.g., 30 or 60 days) unless you purchase an Extension.
-
Extensions are one-time purchases for additional access time and may be repurchased, but they do not auto-renew unless we explicitly offer and clearly disclose auto-renewal at checkout.
10.3 Cancellation
Because Fixed-Term Plans and Extensions are generally one-time purchases, “cancellation” typically means you choose not to purchase additional Extensions.
10.3.1 Access Through End of Paid Term
If you discontinue use or request cancellation before the end of your current Fixed-Term Plan or Extension period, you will retain access to your account and paid features through the end of your Plan, unless your access is suspended or terminated for cause under these Terms (e.g., fraud, abuse, or violations of Community rules). You remain subject to and bound by these Terms for the duration of your access, including through the Paid Access End Date. Your Plan will not renew or extend unless you separately purchase an Extension during your Plan period.
10.4 Refund Policy / No Returns (Digital Services)
Because the Services provide immediate access to digital tools (including AI-enabled tools) and fast-delivery options, we do not offer returns/refunds.
10.5 Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
If you initiate a chargeback (i.e., asking your bank or credit/debit card company to reverse the payment for services) without first contacting us to attempt resolution, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account access, subject to applicable law and these Terms.
10.6 Timing, Availability, and Extension Limits
Extensions can be purchased only during the current Fixed-Term Plan timeframe. Extensions do not automatically renew and must be purchased separately during your current Paid Plan period.
10.6.1 Plan Term Timing (Central Time)
All Plan terms, purchase cutoffs, and Plan end times are calculated using U.S. Central Time (America/Chicago). Unless otherwise stated at checkout, when you purchase a Fixed-Term Plan, your paid access will remain available through 11:59:59 PM Central Time on the last day of your Plan term (the “Paid Access End Date”). Example: A 30-day Fixed-Term Plan purchased on March 1 remains active through 11:59:59 PM Central Time on March 31, after which access under that Plan ends unless you purchase an Extension during the active Plan period.
Using America/Chicago time automatically accounts for daylight saving time transitions (CST/CDT).
10.7 Extension Eligibility and Cutoff. The Extension purchase option is available only during an active Fixed-Term Plan and will be unavailable after the Paid Access End Date. We are not responsible for missed Extension purchases due to delayed action, connectivity issues, or other circumstances outside our control.
11) Data Retention, Export, and End of Access After Discontinued Use
-
Retention After Plan Ends. If you cancel, your Plan expires, or you otherwise discontinue use, your User Content may be retained for up to ninety (90) days after the Plan ends to allow you to purchase a Plan again and gain access to your original Plan content.
-
End of Content Access. After the 90-day period, you will not have access to your user content.
-
Backups / Legal Holds. Limited copies may persist in backups for a reasonable period or as required by law, security, or compliance; however, we will not restore deleted content for user access once the retention period ends except where required by law.
-
Your Responsibility to Export. You are responsible for exporting your content before your Plan ends.
12) Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy (posted on the Site). By using the Services, you agree to our Privacy Policy.
We do not use personal information or User Content to train AI models, and we require our AI Providers to follow the same policy.
13) Disclaimer of Warranties

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT AI OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR RELIABLE.
AI OUTPUTS; NO WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT; USER RESPONSIBILITY. AI FEATURES MAY GENERATE SUGGESTIONS, TEXT, TITLES, SUMMARIES, OR OTHER OUTPUTS (“AI OUTPUT”). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AI OUTPUT MAY BE SIMILAR TO OR DERIVED FROM PUBLICLY AVAILABLE OR THIRD-PARTY MATERIALS AND MAY UNINTENTIONALLY CONTAIN CONTENT THAT IS COPYRIGHTED, TRADEMARKED, OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED. COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY AI OUTPUT WILL BE ORIGINAL, NON-INFRINGING, OR SUITABLE FOR PUBLICATION OR COMMERCIAL USE.

17) Dispute Resolution: Binding Arbitration (Texas) & Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
-
Informal Resolution First. Before initiating arbitration, you agree to contact us by completing the CONTACT US form at https://www.PulseToPage.com and provide: your name, account email, a description of the dispute, and the relief sought. We will attempt good-faith resolution within 30 calendar days.
-
Mediation (Required Before Arbitration). If the dispute is not resolved through informal resolution within thirty (30) days, the parties agree to attempt to resolve the dispute through confidential mediation before initiating arbitration. Mediation will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (or another mutually agreed mediator/administrator) and will be conducted remotely by videoconference unless the parties agree otherwise. Each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees, and the parties will share the mediator’s fees equally, unless otherwise required by applicable law or agreed in writing. If the dispute is not resolved by mediation within sixty (60) days after a written request for mediation is made (or such other period as the parties agree), either party may proceed to binding arbitration as set forth below.
-
Binding Arbitration. If the dispute is not resolved through informal resolution and mediation, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by a single arbitrator of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its applicable commercial rules, as modified by these Terms. The arbitration may be conducted by videoconference, telephonically, or in person, in AAA’s discretion and consistent with the AAA rules.
-
No Court Litigation. The parties agree not to bring disputes in federal or state court, except:
-
To enforce the arbitration award;
-
To seek temporary injunctive relief to protect intellectual property or prevent unauthorized access/misuse while arbitration is pending; or
-
Where applicable law requires a court proceeding.
-
-
Class Action Waiver. You and Company agree that disputes will be brought only on an individual basis, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative action.
-
Fees. The arbitrator may award fees and costs to the prevailing party only as permitted by applicable law and the arbitration rules.
-
Severability. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration clause (this Section 16) will be null and void to the extent required, and the dispute will proceed in a manner permitted by law.
18) Governing Law (Texas) and Venue
These Terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles, except where federal law preempts state law. Venue for all actions shall apply in Dallas County, TX.
19) Miscellaneous
-
Entire Agreement. These Terms, plus any policies referenced (including Privacy Policy), form the entire agreement between you and Company regarding the Services.

Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.
