These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Sourcefinder and its features, including source search, the AI essay writer, and library tools. Please read them carefully. By using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.
You must provide accurate information when registering and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity under your account and for complying with any applicable policies of your school, employer, or institution when using the Service.
You must be at least the minimum age required in your country to consent to these services. If you are not, you may only use the Service with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
You agree not to: misuse the Service to generate content intended to deceive academic or professional integrity processes in violation of applicable rules; attempt to access another user's data or bypass usage limits, paywalls, or security controls; submit content that is unlawful, infringing, or harmful; or use automated tools to scrape, overload, or disrupt the Service.
We may suspend or terminate access if we believe you have violated these Terms or used the Service in a way that harms us or others.
Essay drafts produced by the AI essay writer are tools to assist your own writing process. They may contain inaccuracies, and our originality check is a helpful safeguard but is not a guarantee that any draft is free from plagiarism or suitable for submission.
You are solely responsible for reviewing, editing, and verifying any generated content before use, and for ensuring that your use of it complies with the policies of your school, employer, or any relevant institution. We are not liable for how you use or submit generated content.
The Service offers a free plan with a limited number of searches per period and a Pro plan with additional features. Pro plans are billed weekly at the price displayed on the checkout page. Payments are processed by our payment provider (Base44 Payments, powered by Wix Payments).
Subscriptions auto-renew until canceled. You can cancel at any time from within the Service; cancellation turns off auto-renew and you keep access through the end of your current billing period. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law.
We may change our pricing for future billing periods and will notify you of any change affecting your renewal.
We may offer a limited-time free trial of Pro features. Trials end automatically and, unless you subscribe, your account returns to the free plan when the trial period ends. We may limit trial availability to one per user.
The Service, including its design, software, and features, is owned by Sourcefinder and protected by intellectual property laws. Sources surfaced by the Service are owned by their respective authors and publishers; we help you find and cite them but do not claim rights to them.
Content you create or save — your searches, saved sources, and essay drafts — remains yours. By using the Service, you grant us the limited right to process that content solely to operate and improve the features you use.
The Service links to third-party sources and integrates with third-party tools such as Google Docs. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third parties, and your use of them is subject to their terms and policies.
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that search results are accurate, complete, or suitable for your purpose, or that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sourcefinder and its affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for loss of profits, data, or academic standing, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose.
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or for any business reason with reasonable notice. Provisions that by their nature should survive — including ownership, disclaimers, and limitation of liability — remain in effect after termination.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be communicated through the Service or by email. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable at the location where the Service is operated, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction, unless local consumer protection law gives you a right to resolve disputes in your local courts.
