Terms of Service

These terms govern the use of Journal Automation, operated by Emran Hasan Rabbi. Installing or using the plugin means accepting them.

1. What the service does

Journal Automation produces social media cards and videos from a customer's published stories and posts them to the customer's own connected accounts. The customer remains the publisher of everything that goes out.

2. Trial and licence

• A new site receives a 7-day free trial with every Basic feature enabled. Video and the Telegram desk are part of the Pro package only.
• After the trial the service stops until a licence is activated. One trial per site; reinstalling does not start a new one.
• Licences are sold per site on a subscription basis — 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, or a lifetime licence. The Basic package covers every card (including the daily scheduled cards), automatic posting with the story's link in the first comment, and the Telegram bot's cards. The Pro package adds reels, shorts, the narrated video bulletin and the Telegram desk (stories, speech to text, text to speech and branded videos from the bot).
• A licence covers one website. A second site needs its own licence.

3. Payment

Payment is arranged directly with the operator, and the licence is activated once payment is received. Prices may change for future terms; a term already paid for is not affected. Fees already paid are not refundable once the licence has been activated, except where the service could not be delivered at all.

4. What the customer is responsible for

• Owning, or having permission to publish, everything they send us — including photographs and video.
• The accuracy and legality of their own journalism. We do not review, approve or edit editorial content.
• Keeping their Facebook, YouTube and Telegram accounts in good standing and following those platforms' rules.
• Not reselling, sublicensing or redistributing the service.

5. What we are responsible for

We will make a reasonable effort to keep the service running and to fix faults promptly. The service depends on third parties — Facebook, YouTube, Telegram and AI providers — and on the customer's own website being reachable. We cannot guarantee uninterrupted service, and we are not liable for a platform refusing, removing or limiting a post.

6. Fair use

Rendering video costs real computing time. A licence is for normal newsroom volumes. If usage is far beyond that, we will discuss a larger package rather than cut anyone off without warning.

7. Suspension

We may suspend an account that is used to publish unlawful material, that breaks a platform's rules in a way that puts our own service at risk, or whose licence has lapsed.

8. Liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability is limited to the fees paid for the current licence term. We are not liable for indirect losses such as lost readership, revenue or reputation.

9. Ending the agreement

A customer may stop at any time by deactivating the plugin; the licence runs to the end of its paid term. On termination we delete stored access tokens and, on request, everything else — see Data Deletion.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Bangladesh.
