These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you ("you" or "User") and ColdSmoke AI ("we", "us", "our") governing your access to and use of the ColdSmoke AI website, services, and AI automation systems (collectively, the "Services").
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.
You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal authority to accept these Terms on behalf of yourself or the business you represent. By using our Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.
You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information when engaging with us. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any credentials or access granted in connection with your services engagement, and for notifying us immediately of any unauthorised access. You are responsible for all activity conducted under your account or engagement.
As part of the Cold Smoke Engine™, we may connect and configure third-party platforms on your behalf, including but not limited to CRM systems, voice AI providers, workflow automation tools, and advertising platforms.
You represent and warrant that you:
We act as a service provider operating within the scope of your instruction. You remain responsible for your own accounts and compliance with the terms of any third-party platform.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use any deliverables we produce for you solely for your internal business purposes in accordance with these Terms.
All intellectual property in our proprietary methodologies, systems, tools, software, and the Cold Smoke Engine™ framework remains exclusively ours or our licensors'. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of any ColdSmoke AI intellectual property to you.
Custom deliverables created specifically for your business (e.g., ad copy, workflow configurations, chatbot scripts) are licensed to you for your use upon full payment of applicable fees.
You retain ownership of content, data and materials you provide to us. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, host, display and process such content solely to provide the Services.
To deliver the Services, we utilise the following sub-processors who may access your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy:

You agree not to:
Service fees are set forth in your signed engagement agreement or proposal. Unless otherwise stated, fees are billed in advance and are non-refundable except as required by law or expressly stated in writing.

Either party may terminate an engagement in accordance with the terms of the applicable service agreement. We may suspend or terminate access to the Services immediately for material breach of these Terms or applicable law.
Upon termination, your right to use our Services ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including licences granted to you, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnification obligations — will continue to apply.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY SPECIFIC BUSINESS OUTCOME OR REVENUE RESULT WILL BE ACHIEVED.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COLDSMOKE AI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID TO US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
You will indemnify, defend and hold harmless ColdSmoke AI and its officers, employees and agents from any claim, demand, loss or damage (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Montana, USA, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
