| 51 | + <p class="mt-6"> |
| 52 | + These terms govern your use of <a href={resolve('/')} class={linkClass}>{SITE_NAME}</a> ("the tool", |
| 53 | + "the service", "we", "us"), a free, browser-based visualizer for word-by-word translations available |
| 54 | + at aligner.tinygods.dev. By using the tool, its example pages, its HTTP API, or its MCP server, you |
| 55 | + agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service. |
| 56 | + </p> |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>The service</h2> |
| 59 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 60 | + The tool lets you align words across stacked lines of text, add gloss and IPA tiers, style the |
| 61 | + result, and export or share it. It is provided free of charge. There are no user accounts, and |
| 62 | + you do not need to register or provide an email address to use it. How data is handled is |
| 63 | + described in our <a href={resolve('/privacy')} class={linkClass}>privacy policy</a>. |
| 64 | + </p> |
| 65 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 66 | + We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time, including the |
| 67 | + editor, the example pages, the API, and the MCP server, without notice and without liability to |
| 68 | + you. |
| 69 | + </p> |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Your content</h2> |
| 72 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 73 | + You keep all rights to the text, translations, glosses, and other content you enter into the |
| 74 | + tool ("your content"). We do not claim ownership of it. Because the tool has no backend that |
| 75 | + stores your content, your content stays in your browser and in the share URLs and exports you |
| 76 | + choose to create. |
| 77 | + </p> |
| 78 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 79 | + You are responsible for your content. You represent that you have the necessary rights to the |
| 80 | + text you input and that your use of it, and of any diagram you create, share, or publish, does |
| 81 | + not infringe the rights of others or break any applicable law. |
| 82 | + </p> |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Uploaded fonts</h2> |
| 85 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 86 | + The tool lets you upload custom font files for use in your visualization. These files are stored |
| 87 | + only in your browser and are embedded in some export formats (for example, self-contained HTML |
| 88 | + and SVG). You are responsible for holding the licenses required to use and to embed any font you |
| 89 | + upload and any font you redistribute inside an exported file. We do not provide font licenses |
| 90 | + and are not a party to your font licensing. |
| 91 | + </p> |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Acceptable use</h2> |
| 94 | + <p class="mt-3">You agree not to:</p> |
| 95 | + <ul class="mt-3 list-disc space-y-2 pl-6"> |
| 96 | + <li>use the service in any way that breaks an applicable law or regulation;</li> |
| 97 | + <li> |
| 98 | + attempt to disrupt, overload, or impair the service, its infrastructure, or its networks, |
| 99 | + including through automated requests beyond reasonable use; |
| 100 | + </li> |
| 101 | + <li> |
| 102 | + probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the service, or breach its security or |
| 103 | + authentication measures; |
| 104 | + </li> |
| 105 | + <li> |
| 106 | + use the service to create or distribute content that is unlawful, infringing, or harmful to |
| 107 | + others; |
| 108 | + </li> |
| 109 | + <li> |
| 110 | + misrepresent the source of an exported diagram in a way that violates the rights of others. |
| 111 | + </li> |
| 112 | + </ul> |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>API and MCP server</h2> |
| 115 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 116 | + The tool exposes a free HTTP API and an MCP server. They are provided for reasonable, good-faith |
| 117 | + use. We may apply rate limits, change the request and response formats, require attribution, or |
| 118 | + withdraw access at any time. You must not use the API or MCP server in a way that degrades the |
| 119 | + service for others. Output you generate through the API or MCP server is subject to the same |
| 120 | + rules as content created in the editor, including your responsibilities for your content and for |
| 121 | + any fonts you supply. |
| 122 | + </p> |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Intellectual property</h2> |
| 125 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 126 | + The tool itself, including its software, design, text, and example pages, is owned by the author |
| 127 | + and protected by intellectual property laws. These terms do not grant you any right in the tool |
| 128 | + beyond using it as intended. The project's source code is published separately and is governed |
| 129 | + by the license stated in its repository; nothing here overrides that license. |
| 130 | + </p> |
| 131 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 132 | + Diagrams you export are yours to use. Exports may include a small attribution line referencing |
| 133 | + aligner.tinygods.dev; you may keep it or remove it as you see fit. |
| 134 | + </p> |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Third-party services and links</h2> |
| 137 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 138 | + The tool loads third-party services (such as Google Fonts, Google Analytics, and the Tally |
| 139 | + feedback form) as described in the <a href={resolve('/privacy')} class={linkClass} |
| 140 | + >privacy policy</a |
| 141 | + >. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms. |
| 142 | + </p> |
| 143 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 144 | + To help cover hosting costs, the tool may show partner or affiliate links to third-party |
| 145 | + products. If you follow such a link and use the service, we may receive a commission at no extra |
| 146 | + cost to you. These links do not change the price you pay, and we describe the products on their |
| 147 | + own merits. We are not responsible for third-party products, sites, or services, and listing a |
| 148 | + link is not an endorsement you should rely on without your own judgment. |
| 149 | + </p> |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Disclaimer of warranties</h2> |
| 152 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 153 | + The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether |
| 154 | + express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, |
| 155 | + and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or |
| 156 | + secure, that exports or share URLs will always render correctly, or that any defect will be |
| 157 | + corrected. You use the service at your own risk and are responsible for keeping your own copies |
| 158 | + of anything you need to retain. |
| 159 | + </p> |
| 160 | + |
| 161 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Limitation of liability</h2> |
| 162 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 163 | + To the maximum extent permitted by law, the author and operator of the service will not be |
| 164 | + liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any |
| 165 | + loss of data, work, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, |
| 166 | + the service. The service is free, and to the extent any liability cannot be excluded, it is |
| 167 | + limited to the amount you paid to use the service, which is zero. |
| 168 | + </p> |
| 169 | + |
| 170 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Changes to these terms</h2> |
| 171 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 172 | + We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, the "Last updated" date above will be |
| 173 | + bumped and the change will be reflected in the project's repository history. Your continued use |
| 174 | + of the service after a change means you accept the updated terms. |
| 175 | + </p> |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | + <h2 class={headingClass}>Governing law</h2> |
| 178 | + <p class="mt-3"> |
| 179 | + These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, where the operator resides, without |
| 180 | + regard to conflict-of-law rules, and the competent courts of Israel have jurisdiction over any |
| 181 | + dispute arising from them. Nothing in these terms removes any mandatory consumer rights you have |
| 182 | + under the law of your own country of residence. |
| 183 | + </p> |
