Alapon — Terms of Service
DRAFT. Not reviewed by a lawyer. Do not publish this as-is.
Every [SQUARE BRACKET] needs a decision from the owner or an answer from
counsel. Governing law and consumer-rights sections in particular are not
something to guess at: Bangladesh has mandatory consumer protections that
override whatever a contract says.
Draft prepared: 2026-09-13 · Last updated: [PUBLISH DATE] · Effective: [PUBLISH DATE]
1. Who you are agreeing with
Alapon is operated by LeadRescue LLC, registered in [US STATE OF REGISTRATION] at
[REGISTERED ADDRESS] ("we", "us"). By creating an account you agree to these terms.
If you do not agree, do not create an account. If you have already created one,
you can delete it from Settings at any time.
2. What Alapon is
Alapon is an AI assistant that understands Bangla in Bengali script, Bangla
written in English letters ("Banglish"), English, and mixtures of them, and
replies in the script you wrote in.
Alapon generates text using an AI model. It makes mistakes. It can state
something wrong with complete confidence, including names, numbers, dates and
quotations. Check anything that matters.
Alapon is an independent product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by
OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, or any other AI company, regardless of which model
produces a given reply.
3. Alapon is not professional advice
Nothing Alapon says is medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice, and
using it does not create any professional relationship.
- Medical. See a qualified doctor. Alapon does not know your history and
cannot examine you.
- Legal. Bangladeshi law changes and Alapon may be out of date or simply
wrong. See a lawyer.
- Financial. Do not make a decision that affects your money on the strength
of what Alapon says.
- Crisis. If you are in immediate danger, contact emergency services. Alapon
will try to point you to a crisis line, but it is software.
4. Your account
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- One person per account. Do not share your password.
- You are responsible for what happens under your account. Tell us at
saul@sitesbysaul.com if you think someone else has access.
- Keep your email address current — it is how you recover access.
5. What you may not do
Do not use Alapon to:
- break the law of Bangladesh or of wherever you are;
- create malware, break into systems, or steal credentials;
- defraud, impersonate, blackmail, harass or threaten anyone;
- generate sexual content involving children — this is reported and the account
is terminated without warning or refund;
- find, track or expose a private person against their will;
- resell, repackage or present Alapon's output as a competing AI service;
- work around usage limits, rate limits, or the payment system.
We enforce this automatically. Some requests are refused by software before
a model ever sees them. Refusals can be wrong; if yours was, write to
saul@sitesbysaul.com and a person will look at it.
6. Your content
You keep ownership of what you write. We claim no rights over your messages
or your uploaded documents.
You grant us only the permission needed to run the service: to store your
content, to send it to our AI provider to generate a reply, and to show it back
to you. That permission ends when you delete the content or the account.
We do not train AI models on your private conversations. See the Privacy
Policy.
Do not upload anything you do not have the right to upload.
7. Free plan and paid plan
Free plan. 10 messages per day. [CONFIRM — current code value; revisit once a model and price are chosen, see docs/19] Every feature is included — there
is no safety, deletion, or language feature behind the paywall. The limit is on
volume only.
Paid plan. 100 messages per day for $2.99 per month. [BOTH PROVISIONAL — at top-tier model pricing 100/day loses money at $2.99; run ./ops/cost-model.py before committing to either number.]
About those limits: every reply costs us real money to generate, which is
why the free plan is capped rather than unlimited. We would rather tell you a
small honest number than advertise "unlimited" and throttle you quietly.
We may change limits or prices. If a change makes your plan worse, we will tell
you at least 30 days beforehand, and you can
cancel before it takes effect.
8. Payment, cancellation and refunds
- Subscriptions are sold and billed entirely through Google Play. We never
see or hold your payment details.
- Your subscription renews automatically until you cancel it.
- Cancel through Google Play, not through us — we cannot cancel it for you.
- Refunds are governed by Google Play's policy and by your rights under
Bangladeshi consumer law, which we do not attempt to limit.
[COUNSEL TO CONFIRM what those rights are.]
- Cancelling stops future charges. You keep the paid plan until the period you
already paid for ends.
9. Availability
We aim to keep Alapon running, but we do not promise it will never be down. It
may be unavailable for maintenance, for problems at our AI provider, or for
reasons outside our control.
We are not currently offering a service-level guarantee. If that changes it will
be stated here, not implied.
10. Ending the agreement
You can delete your account at any time from Settings. It takes effect
immediately.
We may suspend or terminate an account that breaks section 5. Where it is
safe and lawful to do so we will tell you why and give you a chance to respond.
For serious cases — child sexual abuse material above all — termination is
immediate and final.
If we terminate your account for something you did not do, tell us and we will
put it right.
11. Our liability
**[COUNSEL: this section is jurisdiction-specific and the draft below is a
starting point, not advice. Bangladeshi consumer protections may override it.]**
Alapon is provided as it is. To the fullest extent the law allows:
- We are not liable for decisions you make based on Alapon's output. It makes
mistakes and we have told you so plainly.
- We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss.
- Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to what you paid us in the
12 months before the claim — which for a free account is nothing.
**Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our
negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited by law.**
12. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. If a change materially affects you we will tell you
in the app before it takes effect. Continuing to use Alapon after that means you
accept the new terms; if you do not, delete your account.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of [JURISDICTION], and disputes go to the
courts of [JURISDICTION].
[COUNSEL — this needs a real decision. The operating entity is a US LLC; the
users are in Bangladesh. Bangladeshi consumer law will likely apply to
Bangladeshi consumers regardless of what this clause says, and a clause that
tries to deny that may itself be unenforceable and looks bad.]
