Terms of Service

1. Agreement to these terms

By creating an account or using Draftedly ("the Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These terms form a binding agreement between you and Draftedly.

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms. We will notify you of material changes by email.

2. The Service

Draftedly is a proposal creation, delivery, e-signature, and payment platform for freelancers and small studios. It allows you to:

• Build and send interactive proposals to clients
• Collect legally binding e-signatures
• Accept deposits and milestone payments via Stripe Connect
• Track proposal views and engagement in real time

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with reasonable notice where possible.

3. Accounts

You must provide accurate information when creating your account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activity that occurs under it. Notify us immediately at hello@draftedly.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account and use the Service.

4. Subscriptions and billing

5. Payments and Stripe Connect

To collect payments from clients, you must connect a Stripe account. By doing so, you agree to Stripe's Connected Account Agreement. Payments go directly from your clients to your connected Stripe account. Draftedly never holds your funds.

You are solely responsible for the products or services you sell, your tax obligations, and any disputes with your clients. Draftedly is not a party to transactions between you and your clients.

6. E-signatures

E-signatures collected through Draftedly are intended to comply with the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA). You are responsible for ensuring that your specific use case and jurisdiction support electronic signatures. Draftedly does not provide legal advice.

7. Your content

You retain ownership of all content you create or upload to Draftedly (proposals, images, text, logos). By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to store, display, and deliver your content solely to operate the Service - for example, to render your proposal to the client you share it with.

You represent that you have the right to use any content you upload and that it does not infringe any third party's intellectual property rights.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to use Draftedly to:

• Violate any applicable law or regulation
• Transmit spam, fraudulent proposals, or misleading content
• Impersonate another person or entity
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service
• Reverse engineer, scrape, or copy the Service
• Use the Service for any purpose that competes with Draftedly without our written consent

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms without refund.

9. Intellectual property

The Draftedly name, logo, product design, and underlying software are our intellectual property. Nothing in these terms grants you any right to use them. These terms do not transfer any ownership of our IP to you.

10. Termination

You may delete your account at any time from your account settings. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these terms or if we discontinue the Service.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends. We will delete your data within 30 days, except where retention is required for legal or audit purposes.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that any particular result will be achieved. Use the Service at your own risk.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Draftedly and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim arising from these terms or your use of the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months prior to the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Draftedly operates, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.
