2. Service Description
Chat Odyssey, offered by Origns Inc., is a comprehensive communication application that provides users with robust texting, calling, AI-enabled call receptionists, and AI-powered outbound calling functionalities. The Service is designed to bring together the capabilities of traditional telecom systems with advanced AI technologies, ensuring efficient and effective communication. Chat Odyssey's features can be integrated with or depend on a variety of third-party telecom or Software as a Service (SaaS) providers to deliver high-quality and reliable services. These integrations are crucial for seamless operation and user experience. For more details about the third-party providers and integrations, please refer to Clause 15: Third-Party Providers and Integrations.

- Users must provide accurate and verifiable personal or business information as requested during the registration process.
- The Service is available to Users who comply with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations.

4. Subscription And Billing
Subscribers are liable for timely payment of subscription fees as outlined at the time of account creation. These fees will be billed in accordance with the predetermined billing cycle of the Service. To ensure continuous access to the Service, users must maintain their payment information up to date and ensure sufficient funds are available to cover the subscription fees.
Subscription payments are recurrent and will be automatically renewed each billing cycle unless the user cancels the subscription prior to the renewal date. If a user fails to cancel their subscription by deactivating all relevant configurations (including but not limited to active lines, call forwarding, numbers, and integrations), Origns Inc. will continue billing for the subscription. Users remain responsible for the payment of any accrued subscription dues, even if a credit card on file fails to process the payment, as subscriptions will not auto-cancel due to payment failures.
For details about refunds, charge disputes, and our no refunds policy, please refer to Clause 13.
Additional charges may apply if users exceed allotted usage or subscribe to supplementary features and services. Users authorize Origns Inc. and its payment processor to store, process, and automatically charge the provided payment method for all subscription-related fees.
To avoid any service interruptions, it is recommended that users monitor their subscription and billing statuses regularly through their Account Settings.
5. Promotional Offers
From time to time, ChatOdyssey ("the Company") may make promotional pricing or discounts available to new or existing customers. The New Customer Offer for the ChatOdyssey Monthly Plan provides eligible new subscribers with a discounted rate of $9.99 per month for the first three (3) consecutive billing cycles, after which the subscription will automatically renew at the then-current standard monthly rate of $19.99 per month, unless canceled by the customer prior to renewal.
For weekly plans, promotional pricing applies only to the first four (4) consecutive weeks of service. Beginning with the fifth (5th) week, the subscription will automatically renew at the then-current standard rate of $14.99 per week, unless canceled or modified beforehand.
This promotional offer is available only to new customers who have not previously subscribed to any paid ChatOdyssey plan. The offer is non-transferable, has no cash value, and may not be combined with other promotions, credits, or discounts unless expressly stated by the Company.
ChatOdyssey reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate any promotional offer at any time, for any reason, without prior notice. The duration, eligibility, and pricing of the offer are subject to change at the Company's sole discretion. Continued use of the Service after the promotional period constitutes acceptance of the then-current standard rate and applicable Terms of Service.
6. Authorization Hold Policy
Authorization Holds may be implemented on user accounts for both business and individual (consumer) users for a period not exceeding thirty (30) days. These holds are applied to validate the availability of funds, secure initial or recurring Subscription payments, and ensure the integrity of the Billing process, as detailed in Clause 4: Subscription and Billing. During this period, the authorized amount is reserved and may reduce the available credit or balance of the payment account, even if the funds are not actually withdrawn. Users will be notified when an Authorization Hold is placed, including the hold amount and expected duration. The Company shall comply with applicable U.S. laws, state/federal consumer billing laws, and credit card processing rules regarding the application and management of Authorization Holds.
7. Cancellation And Restoration Of Configuration
To cancel a Subscription, Users must adhere to the following procedures and requirements. Firstly, Users are required to deactivate active lines, call forwarding, numbers, and any integrations associated with the Service. All phone numbers must be rendered inactive prior to initiating the cancellation process. Origns Inc. performs a verification process to ensure the completion of these steps by requiring the deactivation of all configurations before allowing cancellation to proceed. It is important to note that billing will continue until all proper deactivation steps and the cancellation process are successfully completed. A cancellation is considered effective only when all lines, forwarding services, and numbers have been confirmed inactive by Origns Inc. Furthermore, if a User fails to restore configuration by adequately deactivating all necessary services, billing will continue irrespective of the cancellation request. In instances where the User's credit card fails to process payment, dues will continue to accrue until the User actively takes steps to cancel the Subscription. There will be no automatic cancellation for failed payments. Upon cancellation, Users will lose access to the Chat Odyssey platform, except for those subscribed to the archive plan as detailed in Clause 8: Archive Plan Access.
8. Archive Plan Access
The Archive Plan permits users to access limited features of the Chat Odyssey platform subsequent to the cancellation of their primary subscription. Users who transition to the Archive Plan will be able to: (a) maintain access to their historical data and message logs; (b) utilize basic account management tools; and (c) preserve their account configuration for potential reactivation of full service. Notwithstanding the Archive Plan, non-archive users shall lose all platform access immediately upon subscription cancellation. To enroll in the Archive Plan, users must adhere to the following conditions: (i) the cancellation request must be explicitly stated, including Archive Plan activation; (ii) applicable fees for the Archive Plan must be current and paid in full; and (iii) compliance with all applicable provisions of these Terms of Service must be maintained. The Company reserves the right to modify or terminate the Archive Plan at any time, with notice provided in accordance with the Modification of Terms section.
9. Service Interruptions, Service Guarantee, & Disclaimers
The Primary Party does not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Service. Any expected or unexpected interruptions in the provision of the Service, including those resulting from maintenance, technical failures, or issues caused by Third-Party Providers, shall not render the Primary Party liable for any damages or losses. The Service is provided on an 'as is' and 'as available' basis without any guarantees regarding outcomes or performance from the use of texting, calling, AI-powered call receptionists, or AI outbound calls. The Primary Party explicitly disclaims any warranties related to specific results or success metrics users might expect from utilizing the Service. Users should not expect the Service to meet any particular outcomes or needs. Disclaimers pertaining to these aspects are further defined in Clause 10: No Warranties and Limitation of Liability and Clause 11: AI Feature Limitations and Disclaimers.

The User expressly acknowledges and agrees that the use of the Service is at their own risk. The Company provides the Service on an 'as is' and 'as available' basis, with no warranties whatsoever, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement.

Specifically, the Company disclaims any warranties related to the performance or operational capabilities of texting, calling, AI telecom, or SaaS services offered by the Service.
In no event shall the Company be liable to the User for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to, lost profits, lost business opportunities, business interruptions, or any other form of pecuniary loss arising out of the use or inability to use the Service, or any errors or omissions in the Service's operations, whether caused by the Company, Third-Party Providers, or any other contributing factors, even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Furthermore, the Company shall not be liable for any damages resulting from loss of data, service interruptions, or reputational harm.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the total liability of the Company, its affiliates, and Third-Party Providers, in aggregate for any and all claims under these Terms of Service, shall not exceed the amounts actually paid by the User to the Company in the twelve months preceding the claim. This limitation of liability shall apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, strict liability, or any other form of legal theory.
11. AI Feature Limitations And Disclaimers
The Service utilizes AI-powered features to provide automated decisions, guidance, and information to Users. However, Users acknowledge and agree that these AI-powered features come with inherent limitations, including but not limited to the accuracy, completeness, and dependability of the information or decisions rendered by the AI.

Users should ensure they have access to conventional emergency communication platforms to handle such situations.
14. Refunds, Charge Disputes, And No Refunds Policy
The primary party, Origns Inc., enforces a strict no-refunds policy regarding the use of the Chat Odyssey service. This policy applies under all circumstances, including but not limited to scenarios where the User experiences a loss of access during the restoration process as outlined in Clause 7: Cancellation and Restoration of Configuration.

Origns Inc reserves the right to send to collections any payment that was charged back after the user has used the service. Use of the service includes, but is not limited to, being assigned a phone number, sending or receiving text messages, making or receiving calls, sending or receiving emails, or any other activity that demonstrates active use of the platform. By initiating a chargeback after using our services, you acknowledge that you may be subject to collection proceedings for the disputed amount plus any associated fees and costs.
15. Continued Billing And Access Post-Cancellation
Users are responsible for ensuring they complete the cancellation or restoration of their subscription to prevent continued billing and possible access interruptions. If a user initiates cancellation but fails to finalize the process, Origns Inc. will continue billing the user until the subscription is fully deactivated. Users must confirm that all configurations are restored or deactivated to halt billing. In the event of credit card failures or declined payments, charges will continue to accrue until the user actively cancels the subscription; there will be no automatic cancellation by Origns Inc. due to payment issues. Should there be any continued billing during the period of restoration or incomplete cancellation, no refunds will be issued as stated in Clause 14: Refunds, Charge Disputes, and No Refunds Policy. Once a subscription is cancelled, access to previously accrued services, including the Archive Plan, will be terminated unless provisions within Clause 8: Archive Plan Access stipulate otherwise.

For any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, or the relationship between the User and the Company, the parties agree to resolve the matter through binding individual arbitration, and not in a court of law. The User expressly waives any right to participate in any class, collective, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules or Commercial Arbitration Rules, as in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated. The arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis only and may be conducted remotely, unless an in-person hearing is required by applicable law.

Opt-Out Right
The User may opt out of this arbitration agreement and class action waiver by sending an email to [email protected] within 30 days of creating their first Chat Odyssey account. The email must include the User's full legal name, the email address associated with the account, and a clear statement that the User chooses to opt out of arbitration ("I am opting out of the arbitration agreement.").
Effect of Opt-Out
Opting out applies only to that User as an individual and will apply to all Chat Odyssey accounts that the User owns now or in the future, unless the User later agrees to a new arbitration agreement.
No Retroactive Opt-Out
Opt-outs received after the 30-day period are invalid and will not apply to any past, current, or future disputes.
Multiple Accounts
Creating additional or duplicate accounts does not extend or reopen the 30-day opt-out window. Arbitration will continue to apply to all accounts created by the same User unless a valid opt-out was received within the 30-day period after the User's first account was created.
Identity Matching
For the purpose of this section, "User" refers to the individual person using the Service. The Company may associate multiple accounts with a single User based on matching information, including but not limited to name, email address, phone number, payment method, device identifiers, or other reasonable verification methods.
21. Modification Of Terms
The Company reserves the right to revise, modify, or update these Terms of Service at its sole discretion and at any time. Such modifications will become effective immediately upon being posted on the Company's website or through other standard forms of communication used to notify users of the changes. The Company will make reasonable efforts to notify users of any material changes.
BY CONTINUING TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE AFTER UPDATED TERMS HAVE BEEN POSTED, THE USER AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THE REVISED TERMS OF SERVICE.
