You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the Service and for any activities or actions under your password. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
3. Use of Services and AI Disclaimer
Smartech AI provides tools that utilize artificial intelligence to process media, documents, and text. While we strive for high accuracy (particularly regarding diacritics and regional accents, as stated on our site), you acknowledge that AI technology is not infallible.
- We do not guarantee 100% accuracy for transcriptions, OCR outputs, or translations. You are responsible for reviewing and verifying output files before deploying them globally or in critical situations.
- We are not liable for errors, omissions, or misinterpretations resulting from the AI processing.
4. User Content and Intellectual Property
"User Content" refers to any video, audio, image, document, text strings, or other materials you upload to the Service for processing.
As explicitly stated in our legal summaries, you retain all ownership rights to your User Content. However, by uploading User Content, you grant Smartech AI a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as transcriptions or translated strings), and process your User Content solely for the purpose of providing the Services to you.
5. Acceptable Use Policy
You agree not to use the Service to upload, post, host, or transmit any content that:
- Is illegal, threatening, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, or otherwise objectionable.
- Infringes on the intellectual property rights of others.
- Contains software viruses or any other malicious code designed to interrupt or destroy functionality.
We reserve the right to terminate accounts that violate this policy without prior notice.
6. Payments, Subscriptions, and Cancellations

7. Smartech AI Intellectual Property
The Service and its original content (excluding User Content), features, and functionality—including our AI models, deep linking algorithms, and dashboard interface—are and will remain the exclusive property of Smartech AI and its licensors. The Service is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of the United Kingdom and foreign countries.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Smartech AI, its affiliates, directors, or employees be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Use of the Services shall not exceed the amount paid by you to Smartech AI for the Services during the twelve (12) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim.
9. Data Protection
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which outlines how we handle your data in compliance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
