A formal legal entity registration is in progress; these Terms and Conditions will be updated upon completion to reflect the registered entity details. The governing law and dispute resolution provisions set out below remain valid and binding regardless of the operator's registration status.

License to use

You are entitled to access our Website free of charge, while the use of our Services is subject to the payment terms laid down in these Terms and Conditions. Our Services are subject to subscription fees after a free trial period.

Regarding our Services and subject to these Terms and Conditions, we grant to you for the Initial Subscription Term a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use our Services for your reasonable business use, and not for (re)sale, bundling, lease, or further distribution. Your right to use our Services is limited by all terms and conditions set forth in these Terms and Conditions.

All rights in Guardiavision's Services and Software – especially without being limited to all copyright and other Intellectual Property Rights – shall be the sole and exclusive property of Guardiavision.

Service Description

Guardiavision provides an AI-powered platform for image and video processing, specifically focused on privacy protection through blurring and anonymization technologies. Our Service is designed to help users protect privacy in visual content.

Credits System

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:

Credits are the unit of consumption for all processing tasks on Guardiavision. The rules below govern how credits are allocated, used, and lost. Failure to understand these rules may result in loss of credits without compensation.

Credit Allocation

Each paid subscription plan includes a fixed number of credits per billing period as stated on our pricing page. Free accounts receive a limited one-time credit grant upon registration. Credit amounts are defined at the plan level and may be updated; any change will be communicated in advance.

Credit Consumption

Each image or video processing task deducts credits from your balance based on the type and complexity of the operation. The exact cost per operation is displayed before you confirm a task. Credits are deducted at the time of processing. Failed or errored tasks may still consume credits if processing was initiated; please contact support if you believe credits were deducted in error.

Credits Do Not Roll Over — Reset on Renewal

At each subscription renewal, your credit balance is reset to zero (0) and a new full allocation is granted for the new billing period. Any unused credits from the previous period are permanently forfeited and cannot be refunded, transferred, or applied to future periods.

Credit Expiration

Expired credits are permanently removed from your account and are non-refundable.

Credits After Cancellation

If you cancel your subscription, your account is downgraded to the Free tier at the end of your current billing period. Any credits remaining in your balance at the time of cancellation are given a 30-day grace period from the cancellation effective date, during which you may continue to use them. After those 30 days, all remaining credits expire and are permanently forfeited. No refund is issued for unused credits upon cancellation.

No Refunds for Credits

Credits, whether included in a subscription or purchased separately, are non-refundable except where required by applicable law. We do not provide partial refunds for unused credits within a billing period.

Payment Failure

If a subscription renewal payment fails, your credit balance is not updated and no new credits are added until a successful payment is received. We will notify you by email of a failed payment and provide a retry window. Continued failure to pay may result in suspension or downgrade of your account.

Reconciliation

In the rare event that a technical failure (e.g. a missed webhook from our payment processor) results in credits not being awarded after a successful payment, please contact support at legal@guardiavision.com. We will investigate and restore any credits that were not granted due to a verified system error.

Ownership of Your Content

You retain ownership of all intellectual property rights in any image or video submitted by you in the course of using our Services ("Content"). We do not claim ownership over any of your Content. These Terms and Conditions do not grant us any licenses or rights to your Content except for the rights needed for us to provide and improve the Services to you.

Deletion of Your Content

Any of your uploaded original content is only stored for the duration required to complete the requested processing operation and is deleted immediately upon completion. Processed output files are stored for up to 24 hours to allow download, after which they are automatically and permanently deleted. You may request earlier deletion at any time by contacting legal@guardiavision.com.

We do not retain, use, or process your uploaded content for any purpose other than performing the specific processing operation you requested. Your content is never used to train, improve, or evaluate our AI models without your separate, explicit written consent. Once deleted, content is not retrievable.

Our Service is not a data storage service. You are solely responsible for maintaining backup copies of all content you upload. We shall not be liable for any data loss or consequential damages arising from deletion of content in accordance with this policy.

AI Technology Limitations — Mandatory Acknowledgment

BY USING THE SERVICE YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE:

  • Guardiavision uses AI and machine learning technology. All outputs are probabilistic and not guaranteed to be complete or accurate in every case.
  • The Service may fail to detect, blur, or anonymize some or all faces, license plates, or other objects in certain images or videos, depending on image quality, lighting, angle, resolution, occlusion, or other factors outside our control.
  • You are solely responsible for reviewing, validating, and verifying all processed output before using it for any legal, regulatory, commercial, or publicly distributed purpose.
  • You must not rely on the Service as your sole compliance mechanism for any legal or regulatory obligation, including but not limited to obligations under GDPR, CCPA, or any other privacy law.
  • Any failure of the Service to achieve a desired result does not constitute a breach of these Terms and Conditions, provided the Service functioned as described.

Your Legal Compliance Responsibility

You are exclusively responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service — and your use of any processed output — complies with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to data protection laws (GDPR, CCPA), privacy laws, intellectual property laws, and any sector-specific regulations applicable to your business.

Guardiavision is a processing tool. It is not a compliance service, legal advisor, or data protection officer. We make no representation that use of the Service satisfies any specific legal requirement. You bear full responsibility for determining whether the Service is appropriate for your intended use case and for verifying that outputs meet your compliance requirements.

In particular, if you use the Service to anonymize personal data for the purpose of complying with data protection legislation, you remain the data controller and solely responsible for the adequacy of the anonymization. We shall not be liable for any regulatory fines, penalties, or third-party claims arising from incomplete or imperfect anonymization results.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that processing results will meet any specific standard of completeness or accuracy.

Limitation of Liability

Guardiavision's liability – irrespective of its legal ground – shall be limited as follows:

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the operator of Guardiavision shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or business opportunities, resulting from your use of the Service.

MAXIMUM LIABILITY CAP:

In any case, the total aggregate liability of Guardiavision and its operator — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise — shall not exceed the total amount of Subscription Fees actually paid by you in the twelve (12) calendar months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you have paid no fees (e.g. free plan), the maximum aggregate liability shall be EUR 10.00. This cap applies to all claims in aggregate, not per incident.

The Service is operated by a small independent operator. You acknowledge that the pricing reflects this limitation of liability, and that you are responsible for verifying all processing results before using them for legally or commercially sensitive purposes.

Indemnity

You will indemnify and hold us, our suppliers and licensors, and our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, employees, representatives, and assigns harmless from any costs, damages, expenses, and liability caused by your use of our Services, your violation of these Terms and Conditions, or your violation of any rights of a third party through use of our Services.

Data Protection

By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, you agree to observe all applicable provisions and rules of data protection laws, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You shall use the service for the creation of anonymized content. You shall maintain appropriate security standards for use of our Services.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions and any disputes arising under or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or their validity shall be governed by Estonian law. The exclusive place of jurisdiction shall be Tallinn, Estonia.
