Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-03-31

1. Agreement to Terms

BlitzRead ("Service," "we," "us," or "our") is operated by an individual developer based in India. By accessing or using BlitzRead at blitzread.ai or any associated applications, you ("user," "you," or "your") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and BlitzRead. Please read them carefully.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use BlitzRead. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. If you are under 18, you represent that you have your parent or guardian's permission to use the Service and that they have read and agree to these Terms on your behalf.

The Service is not intended for use in any jurisdiction where such use would be contrary to local laws or regulations. You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

3. Account Responsibilities

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that appear to be compromised, shared among multiple users in violation of subscription terms, or used for any purpose that violates these Terms.

4. Subscriptions and Billing

BlitzRead offers paid subscription plans ("Pro") with additional features. By subscribing to a paid plan:

  • You authorize us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, depending on your selected plan) until you cancel.
  • Subscription fees are charged in advance at the beginning of each billing cycle.
  • Prices are listed in USD and may exclude applicable taxes, which will be added where required by law.
  • We reserve the right to change subscription prices with at least 30 days' notice. Price changes will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle following the notice period.

You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings or billing portal. Cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing period, and you will retain access to Pro features until that time.

5. Refund Policy

All payments are final and non-refundable.

When you cancel your subscription, you will not receive a refund for any fees already paid. Your access to Pro features will continue until the end of your current billing period, after which your account will revert to the free tier.

We do not provide refunds or credits for:

  • Partial subscription periods
  • Unused time on your subscription
  • Dissatisfaction with the Service
  • Failure to cancel before a renewal date
  • Downgrade to a lower-priced plan mid-cycle

Consumer Law Exception: Some jurisdictions have consumer protection laws that grant mandatory refund rights that cannot be waived. If you reside in such a jurisdiction (such as the European Union, where a 14-day withdrawal right may apply to certain digital services), your statutory rights remain unaffected, and you may be entitled to a refund as required by applicable law. In such cases, please contact us at [email protected] with proof of your jurisdiction.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

Informal Resolution: Before initiating any formal dispute proceeding, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days. Most disputes can be resolved this way.

Binding Arbitration: If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 of India (as amended). The arbitration shall be conducted in Chennai, India, in the English language, before a single arbitrator.

Class Action Waiver: YOU AND BLITZREAD AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Exceptions: Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.

Opt-Out: You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to [email protected] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration.

Terms Changes: We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified via email to the address associated with your account or through a prominent notice on the Service at least 14 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service.

16. General Provisions

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and BlitzRead regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
