By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Services.

1. What braird is
braird is a personal reading index. You photograph annotated book pages and handwritten notes, and braird turns them into a private, searchable index of your reading, tagged to ideas.
braird is for your personal use. Your note content is end-to-end encrypted — the keys are yours, and we cannot read it. How we handle data is set out in our Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.
2. Who can use braird
You must be at least 16 to use braird. If you are under 16, or under the age your local law sets for online consent, you need a parent or guardian’s permission. By using the Services, you confirm you can enter into this agreement and will follow these Terms and applicable law.
3. Your account
You may need an account to use braird. Keep your password safe — you’re responsible for activity on your account. Give us accurate information and keep it current. Tell us promptly if you think your account has been compromised.
4. Your content is yours
You own what you create. Your captures, notes, tags, and index belong to you. We don’t claim ownership of them.
The limited permission you give us. To run the Services, you give us only the permission we need to store, encrypt, back up, sync across your devices, and process your content so the features work — including sending it to our AI providers to transcribe and tag it, as described in the Privacy Policy. This permission exists only to provide braird to you. We do not publish your content, show it to other users, sell it, or use it for advertising. braird has no public or social feed.
You’re responsible for what you capture. You confirm you have the right to use the material you put into braird, and that doing so doesn’t break the law or someone else’s rights.
5. Acceptable use
Please don’t:
- break the law, or use braird to infringe someone else’s rights;
- try to access accounts or data that aren’t yours, or break the Services’ security;
- copy, scrape, reverse engineer, or resell the Services, except where the law allows;
- disrupt or overload the Services, or upload malware;
- use the Services to build a competing product.
We may suspend or close accounts that break these Terms or the law.
6. Subscriptions and payment
braird offers free and paid plans.
- Billing. Paid plans are handled by Stripe. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. Prices are in US dollars (USD), plus any tax that applies.
- Cancelling. You can cancel any time from your account. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid period, and you keep access until then.
- Your right to withdraw. If you’re a consumer in the EU, the UK, or Switzerland, you may have a legal right to withdraw from a purchase within 14 days. Where that right applies, we’ll honour it. Apart from rights you have under the law, payments already made are generally non-refundable because the Services are made available to you immediately.
- Price changes. We may change prices. We’ll give you notice in line with the law before a change affects you.
7. Our content and brand
The Services themselves — our software, design, text, and the braird name and logo — belong to us or our licensors. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Services as intended. Please don’t copy or reuse our content or brand without permission.
8. The app
If you install the braird app, we give you a limited, revocable licence to use it on devices you control, for the Services as intended. App-store terms (Apple, Google) also apply when you install through them.
9. Availability and changes
We work to keep braird running, but we can’t promise it will always be available or error-free. We may change, suspend, or stop features, and we may update these Terms. For significant changes to the Terms, we’ll give you reasonable notice; if you keep using the Services after a change takes effect, that means you accept it. If you don’t agree, you can stop using the Services and close your account.
10. Ending this agreement
You can stop using braird and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms or the law, or if we need to for security or legal reasons. When your account ends, we handle your data as described in the Privacy Policy.
11. Disclaimers
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the extent the law allows, we don’t make warranties that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under mandatory consumer law.
12. Liability
To the extent the law allows, we’re not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for loss caused by events beyond our reasonable control. Where liability can’t be excluded, our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing here excludes liability that can’t be excluded by law — including, for consumers, your mandatory legal rights, and liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or for fraud.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Switzerland, and the courts of Zürich have jurisdiction. If you’re a consumer in the EU or Switzerland, you keep the protection of any mandatory laws of your home country, and you may be able to bring proceedings there.
14. General
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies. Our not enforcing a term isn’t a waiver of it. These Terms, with the Privacy Policy, are the whole agreement between us about the Services.
