1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using FileCurator, you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement.

2. Service Description

FileCurator provides a secure file sharing platform that allows users to upload, store, and share files with others.

3. User Accounts and Security Responsibilities

You must create an account to use our service. You are responsible for:

• •Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
• •All activities that occur under your account
• •Using strong passwords and keeping them secure
• •Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access or security breaches
• •Ensuring your account information is accurate and up-to-date

4. Subscription, Billing and Pricing

Our service offers a 14-day free trial. A payment method is required to start your trial, but you will not be charged until the trial period ends. At the end of the trial period, you will be automatically charged for the Pro subscription unless you cancel before the trial ends. You may cancel at any time during the trial or after through your account settings or by contacting us. Cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period. We do not refund any portion of fees already paid, including the unused part of a billing period after you cancel. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights regarding refunds are not affected by this clause.

Changes to Subscription Fees

We reserve the right to change subscription fees. Any fee changes will be communicated to you at least 30 days in advance and will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. Early access users with locked-in pricing will retain their pricing as long as their subscription remains active and in good standing.

5. File Storage, Expiration and Content Licensing

File retention depends on your subscription. On the Free plan, files are automatically deleted after 30 days. On the Pro plan, you can set retention between 1 and 90 days (default 7 days). Files are automatically and permanently deleted after the applicable retention period. We are not responsible for any data loss due to this automatic deletion policy.

Content Licensing: By uploading files to our service, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to:

• •Store and process your files for the purpose of providing our service
• •Generate previews and thumbnails where applicable
• •Enable sharing functionality as directed by you

This license terminates when your files are deleted or when you delete your account. You retain all ownership rights to your content.

6. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Content

7. Fair Use Policy

Our service is designed for normal professional use by photographers, videographers, and creative professionals. To ensure service quality for all users, the following fair use guidelines apply:

Accounts with usage patterns significantly exceeding typical professional use (defined as more than 10 times the median usage across our user base) may be subject to review. In such cases, we will contact you to discuss your usage and may offer enterprise pricing options better suited to your needs.

Early access and promotional pricing applies to usage within these fair use guidelines. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for accounts with sustained extreme usage that materially exceeds fair use thresholds.
