Terms and Conditions

Last updated: October 4, 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern access to and use of BackgroundBlog at backgroundblog.com and the related applications, content generation, publishing, and support services (collectively, the "Service"). Please read them before creating an account or purchasing a subscription.

1. Who we are and how these Terms apply

BackgroundBlog ("BackgroundBlog", "we", "us", or "our") operates the Service from Poland. You may contact us at contact@backgroundblog.com. The person or entity that creates an account or uses the Service is referred to as "you".

By creating an account, using the Service, or placing an order, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you use the Service for an organization, you confirm that you have authority to bind that organization. You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement.

Mandatory rights that cannot lawfully be excluded always prevail over a conflicting provision of these Terms.

2. Accounts and authorized users

You must provide accurate, current information and keep your login credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity performed through your account and by people you invite, except to the extent an unauthorized use was caused by our failure to use reasonable security. Tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access.

The account owner controls billing and destructive website actions. Inviting another person does not transfer ownership of the account or subscription. You are responsible for ensuring that your authorized users comply with these Terms.

3. The Service and generated output

The Service helps generate, edit, schedule, and publish blog content. The generation process is probabilistic. Generated text, images, citations, keywords, recommendations, and other output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased, offensive, non-unique, or unsuitable for your intended use.

You must review output before relying on or publishing it. You are responsible for factual verification, legal and regulatory compliance, intellectual-property clearance, disclosures, and any professional review appropriate to your industry. This responsibility also applies when you enable automatic publishing. The Service is not legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice.

We do not promise that output will be unique or eligible for copyright protection, or that use of the Service will produce traffic, search rankings, revenue, leads, publication acceptance, or any other particular result. Other users may receive similar output.

You need a compatible, up-to-date web browser, an internet connection, email access, JavaScript, and cookies necessary for the Service to work. Integrations also require a supported third-party account and suitable access credentials. You are responsible for those systems and any fees charged by their providers.

4. Your content and generated output

"Customer Content" means information, instructions, brand materials, credentials, files, and other content that you or your authorized users provide to the Service. "Output" means content generated by the Service for your account from Customer Content and other permitted sources.

You retain your rights in Customer Content. As between you and us, and to the extent permitted by law, you own Output generated for your account. If we acquire any rights in that Output, we assign those rights to you. This does not transfer rights owned by third parties, make Output unique, or guarantee that intellectual-property rights arise in it.

You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, process, modify, transmit, and publish Customer Content and Output only as reasonably necessary to provide, secure, maintain, and support the Service, follow your instructions, and comply with law. This license includes allowing our hosting, storage, content-processing, analytics, and integration providers to process that material for those purposes. It ends when the material is deleted, except for limited copies retained in backups, security records, or as required by law.

You confirm that you have all rights and permissions needed for the Customer Content, our permitted processing of it, and your use and publication of the Output. Do not submit sensitive, confidential, regulated, or non-public personal information about another person. You are responsible for ensuring that personal information included in Customer Content or Output is lawfully obtained and may lawfully be processed and published.

5. Acceptable use

You may not use the Service to:

• break the law, infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights, or create unlawful, defamatory, deceptive, or abusive content;
• distribute malware, spam, fraudulent offers, or content intended to manipulate or impersonate people unlawfully;
• access another account, probe or disrupt the Service, bypass security, billing, rate, or usage controls, or misrepresent website ownership;
• scrape, reverse engineer, copy, resell, or use the Service or its non-public components to build or train a competing product, except where applicable law does not permit that restriction; or
• use Output as the sole basis for decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on a person.

We may remove content or restrict activity that reasonably appears to violate these Terms, third-party requirements, or applicable law.

6. Who sells your subscription

BackgroundBlog is the seller. Stripe processes payments for us, and we are responsible for the order, applicable taxes, receipts, and refunds.

BackgroundBlog does not receive your full payment-card details. You must provide accurate billing and tax information and keep your payment method current. A failed payment may be retried, and a subscription whose payments keep failing may be canceled.

7. Introductory offers and automatic renewal

Eligible new accounts receive a free three-day trial. Checkout collects a temporary $1 card verification charge plus applicable tax, which we automatically refund in full whether or not you cancel. After the trial, your subscription renews at $99 per calendar month per website plus applicable tax, unless you cancel before renewal or confirm a subscription change.

Your checkout will state whether a trial or other introductory offer applies and will show its duration, any amount due immediately, when recurring billing begins, the billing interval, and the recurring price. Unless you cancel before the next charge is due, the subscription renews automatically on the terms shown at checkout.

By purchasing a subscription, you authorize the seller named at checkout to charge the payment method on file for the amounts and applicable taxes shown at checkout, including recurring charges and subscription changes you confirm. The checkout or price preview shown immediately before confirmation controls if it conflicts with a general price example in these Terms.

A subscription change made during a trial or introductory period may change or end that offer and may create an immediate charge. The confirmation screen will show the effect before you approve the change.

8. Website quantities, discounts, and subscription changes

Unless checkout states otherwise, the subscription is billed monthly based on the number of paid websites. Prices, taxes, currency, quantity, discounts, the amount due immediately, and the next recurring total are displayed at checkout or in a confirmation preview.

Volume discounts may apply to the entire subscription. As a result, adding or removing one website may move the subscription into another discount tier, and the new total may not equal the old total plus or minus one website's list price.

Adding a website to an active subscription may create an immediate prorated charge and updates the recurring quantity after you confirm the preview. Deleting one website and creating another are separate actions; deletion does not reserve a replacement slot.

9. Removing a website

Only the account owner may remove a website. After you review and confirm the subscription consequence, the paid website quantity is reduced by one. No refund or credit is created for the unused part of the current billing period. The lower recurring total shown in the confirmation applies at the next renewal. If it is the final website, the subscription is instead scheduled to end at the close of the current billing period because a subscription cannot have zero items.

Confirming deletion immediately locks the website. Automated generation, editing, publishing, integrations, and other website changes stop. Images and other media hosted by BackgroundBlog are moved out of public storage, so their existing public URLs stop working. Articles already sent to WordPress, webhooks, or other third-party destinations remain there, but images in those articles that use BackgroundBlog URLs will appear broken. You are responsible for downloading or re-hosting media that must remain available on those services.

After you confirm removal, the website becomes inaccessible immediately. Its Customer Content and hosted media will be permanently deleted within seven days.

You may add a different website at any time through the normal Add website flow. That website is billed as a separate addition even when it corrects an onboarding mistake. You may contact support to request a discretionary refund of an associated addition charge, but no such refund is guaranteed except where required by law or the seller's refund policy.

If you remove the final website, billing is scheduled to stop at the end of the current billing period. The website remains locked from the time you confirm removal, and the remaining paid period does not provide access.

We retain the account, subscription, invoices, cost and usage records, and other information needed for legal, tax, fraud-prevention, security, and accounting purposes. A website removal is not by itself a request to erase all other personal data; privacy requests can be sent to contact@backgroundblog.com and are handled under our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

10. Cancellation

You may cancel automatic renewal through the billing portal linked from your account settings or by contacting us. Cancellation ordinarily takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and no renewal is charged after it takes effect.

Except for content you choose to delete and subject to suspension rights in these Terms, access ordinarily continues until the effective cancellation date. Cancellation does not itself delete your account or content. Deleting a website does not cancel the subscription unless it is the final paid website and the deletion flow expressly says that cancellation will be scheduled.

11. Refunds and consumer withdrawal rights

Refunds and statutory withdrawal rights are described in our Refund Policy.

You may request a refund by contacting us. Nothing in this policy limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

12. Price and tax changes

We may change prices or discount structures for future purchases and renewal periods. For an existing subscription, an increase initiated by us will not apply before the end of the current billing period. We will provide reasonable advance notice and seek express consent where required by law. You may cancel before the increase takes effect. Tax totals may change when tax rates, tax rules, or your billing location changes.

13. Integrations and third-party services

The Service may connect to content-processing providers, payment services, hosting providers, analytics tools, content-management systems, and other third-party services. Their own terms and privacy practices apply. We do not control and are not responsible for a third-party service, its availability, or changes it makes.

When you connect an integration, you authorize us to access and transmit the data reasonably necessary to carry out your instructions, including publishing content. You confirm that you are allowed to connect and publish to the destination. You may disconnect an integration, but doing so does not remove material already delivered to it.

14. Changes to the Service

We may update the Service for valid reasons such as improving features or performance, adapting to user needs or third-party technology, addressing security or abuse, or complying with law. We will not charge a consumer an additional fee solely because of such a change without agreement.

Where required by law, we will give clear advance notice on a durable medium of a change that materially and negatively affects a consumer's access or use, together with any right to terminate without charge or to retain the unchanged Service where available. We may discontinue the Service, but will provide reasonable notice and a reasonable opportunity to retrieve Customer Content where practical, except in an urgent legal or security situation.

15. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or restrict access if payment is overdue; you materially or repeatedly breach these Terms; activity creates a security, legal, or fraud risk; a required third-party service directs us to act; or we are legally required to do so. Where reasonable, we will notify you and give you an opportunity to remedy a curable breach. We may act immediately where delay could cause harm or violate law.

We may terminate for an uncured material breach, repeated breach, fraudulent or unlawful use, or if we permanently discontinue the Service. You may stop using the Service and close your account, subject to completing any required subscription cancellation and paying amounts already due.

After termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections that by their nature should survive, including ownership, payment obligations, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, and dispute provisions, remain in effect. Where applicable law requires it, we will make eligible Customer Content available on request in a commonly used, machine-readable format within a reasonable time.

16. Service communications and marketing

We may send operational messages needed to provide the Service, including security, billing, account, publishing, and legal notices. These are not marketing messages. We send promotional email only where permitted by law and, where required, after separate consent. You can unsubscribe from marketing without affecting operational messages or your account.

17. Intellectual property in the Service

The Service, software, interface, documentation, branding, and related technology, excluding Customer Content and Output, belong to us or our licensors. During your subscription, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.

If you provide suggestions or feedback, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use it without restriction or compensation, provided we do not identify you publicly without permission.

18. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, completely secure, or compatible with every third-party system, or that every defect will be corrected. These disclaimers do not exclude warranties or remedies that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer law.

19. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or mandatory consumer rights.

If you use the Service for business purposes, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential loss, or for lost profits, revenue, goodwill, business opportunity, or anticipated savings, except where such exclusion is prohibited by law. For a business user, our total aggregate liability arising from the Service or these Terms will not exceed the amount paid for the Service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

For consumers, our liability is limited only to the extent permitted by mandatory law. We are not responsible for a failure caused by events outside our reasonable control, provided we take reasonable steps to reduce the effect and resume the Service.

20. Indemnity for business users

If you use the Service for business purposes, you will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims, damages, and reasonable costs arising from Customer Content, your publication or use of Output, your unlawful use of the Service, or your material breach of Section 4 or 5. This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim was caused by our breach, negligence, or willful misconduct. This section does not apply to consumers acting outside a trade, business, craft, or profession.

21. Complaints and disputes

Product and Service complaints can be sent to contact@backgroundblog.com. Include your account email and enough detail to investigate. We will respond to consumer complaints within 14 days where Polish law requires it.

Before starting formal proceedings, each party should make a reasonable attempt to resolve the dispute informally. This does not prevent a consumer from using a competent consumer-protection authority or an available out-of-court complaint mechanism.

22. Governing law

These Terms and your use of the Service are governed by Polish law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protections under the law of the country where you habitually reside, and you may bring proceedings in any court available to you under mandatory law. For business users, the courts having jurisdiction over our registered office have exclusive jurisdiction, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

23. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms for valid reasons, including changes to the Service, law, security needs, or third-party requirements. We will post the updated version and date. For a material change affecting an existing subscription, we will provide reasonable advance notice, at least 30 days where practicable, and explain when it takes effect. If you do not agree, you may cancel before that date.

We will seek express consent where law requires it. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance only to the extent that method of acceptance is legally valid.

24. General terms

These Terms, our Refund Policy, the checkout or subscription-change confirmation, and any additional terms expressly presented for a feature form the agreement concerning the Service. If part of these Terms is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

You may not transfer this agreement without our written consent. We may transfer it as part of a merger, reorganization, sale of the Service, or transfer to an affiliate, provided that doing so does not reduce mandatory consumer rights. Headings are for convenience only.
