All users of this Site agree that access to and use of this Site is subject to the following terms and conditions and other applicable law. By using this Site, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age and legally able to enter into a contract.

1. General

SBVRS, LLC. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is the owner and operator of this website, https://gydlyne.com, and the Gydlyne application (together, the “Site” or the “Service”). By accessing the Site or creating an account, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and to use the Site in accordance with these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms that may apply to specific sections of the Site or services available through it.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully. If you do not agree with our terms, your choice is not to use the Site. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms of Service.

We may revise these Terms of Service at any time. If we make a material change, we will notify you by email or by a notice on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after a change is deemed acceptance of that change, so please check these terms periodically.

2. The Service and Your License to Use It

Gydlyne is a web application that lets you create, publish, and share brand guideline hub pages. Subject to these Terms of Service and the limits of your plan, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your business, including work you do for your clients. You may not sublicense, resell, or provide the Service to third parties as a service of your own, other than by sharing the hubs you publish with the people they are intended for.

3. Intellectual Property Rights

The Site and its entire contents, features, and functionality (including all information, software, text, displays, images, templates, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof), other than Your Content as defined below, are owned by the Company, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the Company’s material on the Site, except as these Terms of Service or the ordinary operation of the Service permit. Hub templates and the software that renders hubs remain the Company’s property; the license in Section 2 lets you use them to build and publish hubs, not to copy them out of the Service.

No right, title, or interest in or to the Site or any content on the Site is transferred to you, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Company. Any use of the Site not expressly permitted by these Terms of Service may violate copyright, trademark, and other laws.

4. Your Content

The Service lets you upload, store, and publish content such as logos, colors, typography, images, files, and text (“Your Content”). You retain all ownership rights in Your Content. We claim no ownership of it.

So that we can operate the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and transmit Your Content solely as needed to provide the Service to you — to show it in the hub editor, to publish it on the hubs you choose to publish, to make it available for download from those hubs, and to keep backups. This license ends when you delete the content or your account, except that copies may remain in routine backups for a limited time.

You represent and warrant that you own or control all rights in Your Content, or have the permission of the rights holder (such as your client), and have the right to grant the license above; and that Your Content complies with these Terms of Service. You are responsible for Your Content, including its legality, accuracy, and appropriateness.

We are not a party to any agreement between you and your clients. Any obligations you owe your clients about their brand assets are yours alone.

5. Accounts

To use the Service you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate and complete information and to keep it up to date. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at [email protected] if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission. Accounts are for one person; you may not share your login or transfer your account without our consent.

6. Plans, Prices, and Payment

The Service is offered on the plans described on the Site, including a free plan with limits and paid subscription plans. Paid plans may be billed monthly or annually, as you choose, and renew automatically at the end of each billing period until cancelled. Annual billing is offered at a discount to monthly billing, as described on the Site at checkout.

All prices posted on the Site are subject to change. If we change the price of your plan, we will give you notice by email at least 30 days before the change takes effect, and the new price will apply from your next renewal after that date. Posted prices do not include taxes; any applicable taxes will be added at checkout.

Payments are processed by our payment provider, Stripe. You represent that the payment information you supply is accurate and that you are authorized to use the payment method provided. If a payment fails, we may suspend or downgrade your account until it is resolved.

Plan limits, including how many guides may be published at once and which features are available, are as described on the Site. If your subscription lapses or is downgraded, guides beyond your new plan’s limits may be taken offline until you upgrade or reduce the number of published guides.

7. Cancellation and Refunds

You may cancel your subscription at any time by emailing us at [email protected]. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period; you keep access to your paid features until then, and you will not be charged again. Subscription fees are non-refundable, and we do not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused time, or unpublished guides, unless required by law.

8. Published Guides, Passwords, and Domains

You decide which guides to publish, and whether to protect them with a password. A published guide without a password can be viewed by anyone who has its address. Password protection is a convenience for controlling who sees a guide; it is not a guarantee of confidentiality, and you are responsible for choosing passwords and sharing them appropriately.

We may offer the ability to connect a custom domain to a guide on certain plans in the future. If and when this feature is available, you will be responsible for that domain’s registration and DNS settings, and will need to represent that you own or have the right to use it.

Guides may display a “Designed by” credit and Gydlyne branding as described on the Site for your plan.

9. Content Standards

Your Content must comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and must not:

• Contain material that is defamatory, obscene, abusive, harassing, violent, hateful, or otherwise objectionable
• Promote sexually explicit material, violence, or discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age

We do not review Your Content before it is published and cannot ensure prompt removal of objectionable material after publication. We assume no liability for any action or inaction regarding content provided by any user.

11. Monitoring and Enforcement; Termination

We have the right to remove or refuse to publish any of Your Content for any or no reason, at our sole discretion, including if we believe it violates these Terms of Service, infringes any right of a third party, or could create liability for the Company. We may disclose your identity to a third party who claims that material you published violates their rights, and may take legal action or cooperate with law enforcement regarding illegal or unauthorized use of the Site.

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the Site for any or no reason, including any violation of these Terms of Service. If your account is terminated, your published guides will be taken offline. Unless termination is for your breach of these Terms of Service, we will make reasonable efforts to give you an opportunity to retrieve Your Content before it is deleted.

12. Copyright Infringement; Notice and Takedown

We prohibit the publishing of content that infringes the copyright or other intellectual property rights of any person or entity.

The Site, the Service, and all content are provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, or business, arising out of or related to your use of the Site or Service. In no event will the Company’s total liability to you exceed the fees you paid to the Company in the twelve months before the claim arose. The foregoing does not affect any liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

18. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms of Service, Your Content, or your use of the Site.

19. Force Majeure

We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disaster, governmental action, war, civil unrest, labor disputes, failures of third-party hosting or service providers, or telecommunication or power outages.

20. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service and any dispute arising from them will be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
