These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Spicule when you install, access, or use PodCopilot ("the Service"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms.
PodCopilot is a desktop application that automates podcast publishing workflows. It is licensed, not sold, under the LICENSE file at github.com/spiculedata/podcast-manager/blob/main/LICENSE.
You agree not to use the Service to violate any law or third-party rights, reverse engineer the Service, generate unlawful content, attempt to access another user's data, resell or sublicense access, or probe/scan the Service's infrastructure.
PodCopilot integrates with Anthropic, Transistor.fm, Late, Buffer, Firebase, and Stripe. You are responsible for complying with the terms of those services. We are not responsible for their outages, moderation decisions, or pricing changes.
PodCopilot uses Anthropic's Claude models to generate titles, chapters, show notes, and social posts from transcripts you provide. You retain ownership of inputs, are responsible for reviewing AI-generated outputs before publishing, and accept that AI outputs may contain errors or fabricated facts ("hallucinations"). Spicule provides no warranty as to accuracy.
You retain all rights to content you upload to or generate with the Service. You grant Spicule a limited licence to process that content solely as needed to provide the Service. We do not use your content to train AI models.
We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We are not liable for downtime caused by third-party providers.
The Service may automatically download and install updates. You can disable automatic updates in settings. Updates are signed and verified before installation.
The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Spicule's total liability shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) £100. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability which cannot be excluded by law.
You agree to indemnify Spicule against any third-party claim arising from your breach of these Terms, your use of the Service in violation of applicable law, or content you publish using the Service.
You may terminate by closing your account at any time. We may terminate or suspend access for breach of these Terms, prolonged inactivity (>12 months), or where required by law. Sections 7, 10, 11, 12, and 14 survive.
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, except that consumers resident in the EU/UK may invoke mandatory consumer-protection laws of their country of residence.
We may amend these Terms. Material changes will be announced with at least 14 days' notice where practicable.
