By accessing or using Octabiz (including octabiz.ai and related applications), you agree to be bound by these Terms.

Condition of use: while you use Octabiz, and for 10 years after you stop, you may not build, sell, or help build software that competes with Octabiz, or copy our features, workflows, or other methods. If you do, you pay our loss, the profit made from it, and our legal costs. Read section 8

We process data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

You agree that:

  • Data may be used for:
    • Service delivery
    • Analytics
    • AI improvement
  • Sensitive data is encrypted

You confirm you have legal rights to process all uploaded data.

Accounting module is free for one user.

  • Abuse of refund policy may result in denial of refunds

7. Acceptable Use

You may not:

  • Use the platform unlawfully
  • Attempt unauthorized access
  • Disrupt services
  • Send spam or abuse features
  • Copy, reverse engineer, or scrape the platform, or use it to build a competing product (see section 8)

8. Non-Competition and Protection of Our Methods

This section is a condition of using Octabiz. You accept it when you create an account, when you tick the box that asks you to accept these Terms, and each time you keep using Octabiz. If you do not accept it, do not use Octabiz.

8.1 Who this section binds

If you use Octabiz for a business, this section binds that business, its owners, and every company that controls it, that it controls, or that is under common control with it. In this section, “you” means all of them. If you use Octabiz as an individual, it binds you personally. Staff who use Octabiz only to do their job for you are bound by sections 8.3 and 8.4, not by section 8.2.

8.2 No competing for 10 years

While you use Octabiz, and for 10 years after you stop, you will not, directly or through anyone else:

  • build, sell, license, or offer software or an online service that competes with Octabiz or with any of its modules, such as an ERP, accounting, inventory, point-of-sale, CRM, procurement, booking, or business-management system;
  • own, invest in, manage, or advise a business that does any of the above; or
  • help anyone else do any of the above.

The 10 years start on the day your last Octabiz account closes. This applies in every country where Octabiz is offered. Holding less than 2% of the shares of a publicly traded company is not a breach.

8.3 Our methods stay ours

Using Octabiz shows you how we work: our features, screens, workflows, business rules, data structures, pricing, documentation, AI prompts, the way our system produces its results, and anything else about Octabiz that is not public. This section calls all of that “our methods”. You will not:

  • copy, imitate, or reproduce our methods;
  • reverse engineer, decompile, scrape, or extract code, data structures, or prompts from Octabiz, except where the law expressly allows it; or
  • use our methods, or anything you learned from them, to build, train, or improve a product or service for yourself or for anyone else.

This applies while you use Octabiz and for 10 years after you stop. For anything that is a trade secret, it applies for as long as it stays a trade secret.

8.4 Keeping our methods confidential

Share our methods only with people who need them to use Octabiz for your business and who are bound to keep them confidential. You are responsible if any of them breaks this section.

8.5 If you break this section

  • We may suspend or close your account immediately.
  • You agree that money alone cannot fully repair the harm, so we may ask a court to order you to stop, in addition to claiming money.
  • You will pay us: (a) the full loss we suffer; (b) all profit that you, or anyone acting with you, makes from the breach, to the extent it is not already counted in (a); and (c) our reasonable lawyers’ fees and other costs of enforcing this section.

These remedies add to each other and to any other right we have under the law. Section 15 (Limitation of Liability) limits our liability to you, not what you owe us under this section.

8.6 If a court limits this section

We need this section to protect our methods, our confidential information, and what we have invested in building Octabiz. If a court or arbitrator decides that any part of it is too broad, lasts too long, or covers too large an area, they should enforce it as far as the law allows, for example by shortening the period, and the rest of this section stays in force.

8.7 This section continues after you leave

This section keeps applying after your account closes or your subscription ends, and after these Terms end for any reason.

9. Security

We provide:

  • Role-based access control
  • Optional 2FA (app + SMS)

You are responsible for securing your account.

10. Data Retention

After cancellation:

  • Data is retained up to 90 days
  • Then permanently deleted

You must export your data beforehand.

11. Third-Party Services

We integrate with services such as:

  • Stripe
  • QuickBooks
  • Twilio
  • ClickSend

We are not responsible for their performance or policies.

12. Intellectual Property

  • Octabiz owns all platform technology
  • Users own their data

  • Financial or accounting errors

Total liability is limited to the amount paid by you in the past 12 months.

16. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Octabiz, its officers, employees, and affiliates from any claims, damages, or liabilities arising from:

  • Your use of the platform
  • Your data
  • Violation of these Terms
  • Violation of applicable laws

17. Data Security & Breach Disclaimer

However:

  • We do not guarantee absolute protection against breaches

In the event of a breach:

  • We will take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate impact
  • Our liability remains subject to the limitations in these Terms

18. Compliance with Laws & Sanctions

You may not use Octabiz if you are:

  • Located in a sanctioned country
  • Listed on any U.S. government restricted party lists

You agree to comply with all applicable export control and sanctions laws.

19. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of:

United States, State of Kentucky

20. Dispute Resolution (Arbitration)

Any dispute arising from these Terms shall be resolved through:

  • Binding arbitration, not court litigation
  • Conducted in the State of Kentucky
  • Under applicable U.S. arbitration rules

You waive the right to:

  • Jury trial
  • Class action lawsuits

Exception for section 8 and intellectual property. We may bring claims under section 8 (Non-Competition and Protection of Our Methods), and claims about our intellectual property, in the state or federal courts located in Kentucky or in any other court that has jurisdiction over you. That includes asking a court to order you to stop a breach. You agree to the jurisdiction of the Kentucky courts for these claims.

21. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms at any time.

Continued use means acceptance of updated Terms.
