Introduction

These terms apply to My Blurbly memberships, subscriptions, trials, plan limits, credits, paid upgrades, downgrades and renewals.

Definitions

My Blurbly means the My Blurbly V3 website, application, tools, public pages, creator websites, community surfaces, Editorial AI features, ARC workflows, payment flows, email funnels and related services. User means any visitor, reader, author, reviewer, creator, influencer, affiliate, publisher, beta tester, customer, subscriber or account holder. Content means text, manuscripts, excerpts, reviews, comments, messages, images, covers, avatars, metadata, links, uploads, prompts, AI outputs, creator website materials and campaign assets.

Plans and Entitlements

Plan features, limits, credits, storage, books, creator websites, ARC campaigns, Editorial AI access and analytics may vary by plan and may change before broad public launch. The current checkout or pricing page controls the active offer.

Upgrades and Downgrades

Upgrades may unlock features immediately or after payment confirmation. Downgrades may take effect immediately or at the next billing period depending on provider capabilities and product configuration.

Cancellations and Renewals

Subscriptions renew until cancelled. Users are responsible for cancelling before renewal if they do not want continued access. Cancellation stops future renewals but does not automatically refund past periods.

Trial Periods

Trials, if offered, may require payment details, have eligibility limits and convert to paid subscriptions unless cancelled before the trial ends. Trial abuse may lead to account restriction.

PayFast Payment Processing

When PayFast checkout is enabled, PayFast processes checkout and payment notifications for My Blurbly paid services. My Blurbly grants or removes platform entitlements based on PayFast ITN events and internal records.

User Rights

Users may access the policies before signing up or purchasing, ask questions about the policies, request privacy access/correction/deletion where applicable, cancel subscriptions through the available account or payment-provider route, report unsafe content, and contact My Blurbly about disputes or legal requests.

User Obligations

Users must provide accurate information, keep account credentials secure, respect intellectual property and privacy rights, use the platform lawfully, avoid misleading claims, disclose paid relationships where required, follow community rules, and only upload or process content they have the right to use.

Company Rights

My Blurbly may operate, secure, change, pause, restrict, remove, label, moderate, investigate or discontinue features where needed for safety, compliance, platform integrity, provider requirements, fraud prevention, payment risk, beta testing or legal obligations.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by applicable law, My Blurbly is provided on an as-is and as-available basis. My Blurbly is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or loss-of-profit damages, or for loss caused by user content, third-party providers, payment providers, AI inaccuracies, unavailable features or unlawful user conduct.

Dispute Resolution

Users should first contact My Blurbly at the contact address in this document so the issue can be reviewed informally. If informal resolution fails, disputes will be handled under the governing law and competent courts stated below, unless mandatory consumer law gives the user a different non-waivable forum or remedy.

Governing Law

These terms are intended to be governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, unless a mandatory consumer, privacy or platform law in another jurisdiction applies and cannot legally be excluded.

Contact Information

Questions, legal notices, privacy requests, takedown requests, refund questions and account deletion requests should be sent to support@myblurbly.com. My Blurbly should publish any updated support address, business address or provider-required buyer support details before live paid rollout.

Compliance Requirements

Membership billing must satisfy payment-provider rules, consumer transparency, refund policy disclosures, cancellation access, tax handling and privacy retention requirements.
