Terms of Service
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of Cognova Labs websites, apps, and services (“Services”). By creating an account, downloading an app, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.

- Provide accurate registration information and promptly update it as needed.
- You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity under your account.
02 · School & Organization Use
Schools, districts, or other organizations (“Institutions”) may provision accounts to educators and learners. Institutions are responsible for:
- Obtaining any required parental or guardian consent.
- Configuring privacy settings and roster data shared with Cognova.
- Ensuring staff and students comply with these Terms and supplemental agreements.
03 · Subscriptions, Billing & Trials
- Certain features require a paid subscription. Pricing, plan details, and renewal cycles are shown at purchase.
- Trials convert to paid plans unless canceled before the trial ends.
- Payments processed through app stores (Apple, Google) or Stripe are subject to their respective terms. We do not store full payment card data.
- You may cancel at any time; access remains until the end of the billing period. Partial refunds are not provided unless required by law.
04 · Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Services for unlawful, harmful, or abusive purposes.
- Upload content that infringes intellectual property or privacy rights.
- Attempt to disrupt, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services.
- Share login credentials or circumvent usage limits.
05 · User Content & Feedback
You retain ownership of content you submit (text, images, projects). By uploading content, you grant Cognova a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, and display that content solely to operate the Services. Feedback or suggestions may be used without restriction.
06 · Intellectual Property
The Services, including all software, interfaces, designs, and trademarks, are owned by Cognova Labs or our licensors. Except for the limited rights expressly granted, no license or transfer of intellectual property rights is implied.
07 · Third-Party Services
Some features integrate third-party tools (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics, payment processors). Those services are governed by their own terms and privacy practices. Cognova Labs is not responsible for third-party content or actions.
08 · Disclaimers
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
09 · Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cognova Labs and its affiliates are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or lost profits, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services is limited to the amount you paid to use the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim (or AUD $100 if no fees were paid).
10 · Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cognova Labs, its directors, employees, and partners from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the Services, your content, or violation of these Terms.
11 · Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Brisbane, Queensland, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Where required by law, you may have additional rights or alternative dispute mechanisms.
12 · Changes to the Services or Terms
- We may modify or discontinue features with reasonable notice when feasible.
- We may update these Terms to reflect operational or legal changes. Material updates will be notified via email or in-product message. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
13 · Termination
We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms, create security risks, or cause harm to other users. Upon termination, the rights and licenses granted to you will cease, but sections relating to intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, and dispute resolution will survive.
