The rules, plainly written.
Last updated: January 2025
We've written these in plain language. If something's unclear, email us, we'd rather you understand what you're agreeing to.
1. Acceptance of terms
By creating an account or using Follwup ("the Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, don't use the Service. These terms apply to all users, including free and paid plan subscribers.
2. The service
What Follwup provides
Follwup provides software tools that allow you to create, train, and deploy AI-powered chatbots on your website or digital properties. The Service includes the dashboard, chatbot widget, API, and related features as described on our website.
Changes to the service
We may update, modify, or discontinue features of the Service with reasonable notice where possible. We will provide advance notice of significant changes that affect paid plan functionality.
Availability
We target 99.9% uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Scheduled maintenance is performed with advance notice where possible. We are not liable for losses caused by service interruptions beyond our control.
3. Your account
Registration
You must provide accurate information when creating an account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. Notify us immediately at support@follwup.app if you suspect unauthorised access.
Account responsibility
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, including content trained into your chatbots and all conversations your chatbots have with visitors.
One account per person
Accounts are for individual use unless you are on a Business plan with multi-seat access. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent plan limits is prohibited.
4. Billing and payments
Plans and pricing
Paid plans are billed monthly or annually as selected at checkout. Prices are displayed in USD. All payments are processed by Stripe. By providing payment details, you authorise us to charge the applicable plan fee.
Free plan
The free plan is provided as-is with usage limits described on our pricing page. We reserve the right to modify free plan limits with reasonable notice.
Cancellation
You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. We do not offer pro-rata refunds for partial months.
Refunds
If you're unsatisfied within the first 7 days of a new paid subscription, email us and we'll issue a full refund. After 7 days, refunds are at our discretion.
Failed payments
If a payment fails, we will retry for up to 7 days. After that, your account will be downgraded to the free plan. Data is retained for 30 days before permanent deletion.
5. Your content
Ownership
You retain full ownership of all content you upload to train your chatbots (documents, URLs, text, Q&A pairs) and all data captured through your chatbots (conversations, leads). We claim no ownership over your content.
License to operate
By uploading content to Follwup, you grant us a limited license to process and store that content solely for the purpose of operating the Service. This license ends when you delete the content or close your account.
Your responsibility
You are responsible for ensuring you have the rights to use any content you upload to train your chatbot. Don't upload content you don't own or that would violate third-party rights.
6. Prohibited uses
You may not use Follwup to:
Violate any applicable law or regulation; generate, distribute, or facilitate illegal content; impersonate others or create deceptive chatbots without clear AI disclosure; send spam or unsolicited communications; scrape or attempt to extract our systems or data; resell or sublicense the Service without our written permission; create chatbots designed to deceive users into believing they are speaking with a human when directly asked; use the Service for high-risk activities including medical diagnosis, legal advice, or financial advice where errors could cause harm.
7. AI limitations & disclaimer
AI may be wrong
Follwup uses large language models to generate responses. Despite being trained on your content, AI responses may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading. You should not rely on Follwup as the sole source of information for consequential decisions.
Your responsibility for AI output
You are responsible for testing your chatbot before deployment and monitoring its performance. We recommend reviewing conversation logs regularly and adding content to address any inaccuracies you discover.
8. Liability limitations
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Follwup's total liability for any claim arising from use of the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
Warranty disclaimer
The Service is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. We make no warranties about fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or uninterrupted availability.
9. Termination
By you
You may close your account at any time from your dashboard. On closure, your data will be deleted within 30 days.
By us
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice depending on severity. We will provide notice and opportunity to remedy violations where possible.
10. Governing law & changes
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms periodically. For significant changes, we will notify account holders by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after that date constitutes acceptance.
