Terms of Service

These terms are a contract between you and Strimium SRL, MD-2003, mun. Chișinău, or. Durlești, str-la 4 Nicolae Testemițanu, 17, Republic of Moldova (IDNO 1019600057092) — "legivel", "we" — for the use of the legivel service at legivel.com: the web editor, the REST API at api.legivel.com and the MCP server at api.legivel.com/mcp (together, the "service").

1. The service

legivel converts Markdown documents into PDF documents. Each plan includes a number of documents per month (the API calls this unit a credit: one document = one credit). Editor previews do not count against your included documents. A conversion that fails after we have accepted it does not count either; this is a service adjustment, not a money refund. Plans, prices, included documents and technical limits (document size, images, pages, processing time, request rates) are listed on the pricing page and apply per plan.

2. Accounts and eligibility

• You must be at least 18 years old and provide accurate account information.
• Guests may use the editor without an account to preview and to download watermarked PDF documents, within published limits. Downloads without a watermark and API access require an account with a verified email address.
• You are responsible for your credentials and API keys, including use of your keys by automated agents or AI tools you connect (for example through the MCP server). Usage under your keys counts against your plan and is your responsibility. Keep keys secret; revoke a key immediately if you suspect it is compromised.
• You can also connect an app, such as an AI assistant, to your account through the MCP server. You sign in and approve it, and it then uses your account with the access you approved. You are responsible for the apps you approve, as for your keys, until you disconnect them. Documents an app makes count against your plan, as under your keys. You can disconnect an app at any time on your account page; it then gets no new access, and access it already has ends within one hour.

3. Your content

• You retain all rights to the documents you submit and the PDFs generated from them.
• You grant us the limited right to process your documents in memory, for the sole purpose of serving your request. We do not store the documents you convert or the data that fills a template. Templates you choose to save, with their sample records, are stored encrypted until you delete them; see the Privacy Policy.
• If your documents contain personal data of other people, our Data Processing Agreement applies and forms part of these terms.
• You are responsible for the content of your documents. You warrant that you have the right to use every remote resource (image or other file) referenced in a document; we fetch remote resources only on your instruction, hold them in memory for that conversion, and store none of them.
• Use of the service must comply with the Acceptable Use Policy. Accounts used to fetch or convert unlawful content are blocked, and abuse reports are acted on.

4. Seals (PDF digital signatures)

On paid plans you may have PDFs sealed with your own certificate, either supplied with a request or stored with us at your instruction.

• Sealing uses only certificates you provide. legivel has no certificate of its own and never signs documents itself. Storing a certificate records your authorization: "I instruct legivel to use this certificate to seal the documents I submit, until I delete it." You can delete a stored certificate at any time.
• You are responsible for the validity of your certificate, your right to use it, and the legal effect of documents sealed with it.
• A seal is a standard PDF digital signature. We make no representation that a seal constitutes a qualified electronic signature, a personal approval, the equivalent of a handwritten signature, or that it will be displayed as trusted by any particular PDF reader.

5. Plans, billing and renewal

• Paid subscriptions are sold by Paddle as merchant of record: Paddle is the seller of record, processes your payment and handles sales taxes under its own checkout buyer terms. Prices are shown exclusive of VAT and sales tax; Paddle determines and adds the tax for your country at checkout.
• Your billing period is one month or one year, according to the plan you bought. It starts on the day your subscription starts, and Paddle renews it on the billing date shown on your account's Billing tab.
• Included documents reset every month, at 00:00 UTC on your account's reset day, shown on the Billing tab («Documents reset on …»). This holds on monthly and yearly plans alike; in a month without that day, the reset falls on its last day.
• Monthly and annual plans renew automatically until canceled. You can cancel on your account's Billing tab or through Paddle's customer portal; on the Billing tab, canceling is not possible in the last 30 minutes before a renewal or while a payment is past due. A cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period. Downgrades take effect at the end of the period.
• If a renewal payment fails, paid access ends at the end of the period already paid and the account continues on the Free plan. Paddle retries the payment for up to 30 days. A payment that succeeds during that time starts a new paid period from the day of the payment; if none succeeds, the subscription is canceled.
• Included documents apply per month and do not roll over, with one exception: when you move from a paid plan to a larger one at its full price (a monthly upgrade, or a move from monthly to yearly billing), your unused included documents carry into the new period as a bonus, up to the new plan's monthly documents. An upgrade billed as a prorated difference (a yearly plan to a larger yearly plan) carries nothing over.
• We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice by email; changes apply from your next renewal, and you may cancel before they take effect.
• Enterprise plans are governed by their contract and invoice terms where they differ from these terms.

6. Refunds

The Refund Policy applies, including a 14-day refund on the first payment of your first subscription. Statutory consumer rights remain unaffected.

7. Fair use and limits

Plan limits (size, pages, timeouts, concurrency, request rates) are enforced technically and are part of the service description. You must not circumvent limits, metering or access controls, and must not resell the service without our written agreement. We may apply temporary technical measures (such as rate limiting) to protect service integrity.

8. Availability

We operate the service with professional care, but we do not promise uninterrupted availability, and scheduled or emergency maintenance may interrupt the service. Status information is published at status.legivel.com.

9. Intellectual property

The service, its software, design and documentation are and remain the property of Strimium SRL or its licensors. Feedback you choose to send us may be used to improve the service without obligation to you.

10. Warranty and liability

10.1 Our commitment. We provide the service with reasonable skill and care and substantially as described in our documentation.

10.2 Business customers. If you use the service in the course of a business:

• we give no warranties beyond section 10.1, to the extent permitted by law;
• our total liability under this contract is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to liability (or, for free use, USD 100);
• we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit or loss of data;
• these limits do not apply in cases of intent or gross negligence, to injury to life, body or health, or where liability cannot be limited by law;
• you indemnify us against third-party claims arising from the content of your documents or from your breach of section 3 or the Acceptable Use Policy.

10.3 Consumers. If you use the service as a consumer, we are liable in accordance with the statutory rules of the country of your habitual residence. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes rights that consumer-protection law grants you and that cannot be waived by contract.

11. Termination

• You may stop using the service at any time and may delete your account on your account page, or have it deleted by writing to support@legivel.com from your account email. While a paid subscription is active, deletion is refused: cancel the subscription first, keep access until the end of the paid period, and delete afterwards. Refunds follow the Refund Policy.
• We may suspend or block an account that violates these terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, or where required by law. Blocking is a human decision, with one exception: a payment dispute (a chargeback) blocks the account automatically, as the Refund Policy describes. Where reasonable, we will state the reason and, for remediable violations, give you an opportunity to remedy.

12. Changes to these terms

We may amend these terms for valid reasons — changes in law, security requirements, or changes to the service's features — with at least 30 days' notice by email to account holders. The notice describes the change and your right to terminate. If you do not agree, you may terminate before the amendment takes effect.

• Business customers: continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
• Consumers: an amendment that affects your rights or obligations applies to you only if you accept it; if you do not, either party may terminate the subscription at the end of the paid period.
• Amendments required by law may take effect sooner.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Moldova.

• Business customers: disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Chișinău, Republic of Moldova.
• Consumers: this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence. You may bring proceedings in the courts of that country or in Chișinău; we may bring proceedings against you only in the courts of your country of habitual residence.

14. Language and contact

These terms are concluded in English.
