Terms of Service

Last updated: 28 April 2026

1. Scope

These Terms of Service (hereinafter "Terms") govern all agreements relating to the use of the EPOS-AI Software-as-a-Service platform (hereinafter "Service") between Marcel Tobien, Weihermattweg 6, 6353 Weggis, Switzerland (hereinafter "Provider") and the user (hereinafter "Customer").

By registering for or using the Service, the Customer accepts these Terms in full.

2. Subject Matter and Scope of Services

2.1 Services

The Provider offers the Customer a web-based AI-powered writing platform. The specific features available depend on the subscription tier selected (Starter, Professional, or Studio).

2.2 No Guarantee of Availability

The Provider strives for high availability but does not guarantee it. Outages may occur due to failures of the underlying AI services (Anthropic Claude API), maintenance, force majeure, or overload. No claim for damages due to outages exists unless the outage lasts more than 30 consecutive days.

2.3 Third-Party Dependencies

The Service uses the Anthropic (Claude) AI API. The Provider is not responsible for outages, changes, or discontinuation of the Anthropic API, the quality of AI-generated content, or changes to API pricing. If Anthropic significantly increases costs, the Provider reserves the right to adjust prices or discontinue the Service with 30 days' notice.

3. Contract Formation, Duration, and Cancellation

3.1 Registration

The contract is formed upon registration and payment. The Customer must be at least 18 years of age and have full legal capacity.

3.2 Monthly Subscription

The monthly subscription has a term of one month and renews automatically for successive one-month periods unless the Customer cancels before the end of the current billing period. Cancellation can be made at any time via the customer portal or by email to info@epos-ai.ch. Access remains active until the end of the paid period.

3.3 Annual Subscription

The annual subscription has a term of twelve months from the date of purchase. Payment is made as a single upfront payment. The annual subscription renews automatically for a further twelve months unless the Customer cancels at least 14 days before the end of the term. Cancellation can be made via the customer portal or by email to info@epos-ai.ch.

No pro-rata refunds are provided for early cancellation of annual subscriptions, except where the EU right of withdrawal under Section 3.5 applies.

3.4 Free Trial

The Starter monthly subscription may begin with a free 7-day trial. If not cancelled before the trial expires, the subscription automatically converts to a paid monthly subscription. No free trial is offered for annual subscriptions.

3.5 Right of Withdrawal (EU Customers)

Consumers resident in the European Union have the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 days without giving any reason, in accordance with EU Directive 2011/83/EU. The withdrawal period begins on the date of contract formation. Withdrawal must be communicated by email to info@epos-ai.ch.

If the Customer expressly requests that the Service begins immediately and acknowledges this right of withdrawal, the right may expire upon full performance of the contract. In the event of a valid withdrawal, a pro-rata refund for services rendered up to the date of withdrawal will be provided.

Swiss customers do not have a statutory right of withdrawal under Swiss law (OR) in this context.

3.6 Effect of Cancellation

Upon cancellation, access continues until the end of the paid period. No pro-rata refunds are given (except under EU withdrawal rights). Customer data is deleted after 30 days (backup retention period).
