By accessing or using PDC Dev Studio ("the Service"), operated by Primary Design Company ("we," "us"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

PDC Dev Studio is an AI-assisted research and development workspace for drafting, prototyping, documenting, and reviewing technical work in educational, research, and organizational settings. The Service may use third-party AI models to process prompts and generate draft outputs on your behalf.

3. Accounts

You must sign in with a valid Google account to use the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and for all activities that occur under your account.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

Use the Service to generate malicious code, malware, or content that violates any law.
Attempt to circumvent usage limits, credit systems, or security measures.
Reverse-engineer, scrape, or programmatically access the Service outside of provided interfaces.
Use the Service to harass, abuse, or harm others.
Resell or redistribute access to the Service without authorization.

5. Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of code and content you create using the Service. We do not claim ownership of your generated code. The Service itself, including its interface, branding, workflows, platform design, and underlying proprietary technology, remains our property. Access to the Service does not grant a license to reverse-engineer, reproduce, or disclose non-public implementation details.

6. Credits and Billing

The Service operates on a credit-based system. Free accounts receive a limited monthly credit allocation. Paid plans provide additional credits. Credits are non-transferable and expire according to your plan terms. Payments are processed by Stripe and are subject to Stripe's terms of service.

7. AI-Generated Content

Code, analysis, summaries, and other content generated by AI may contain errors, security vulnerabilities, omissions, or inaccuracies. Outputs are drafts for human review, not professional, legal, medical, educational, safety, or operational determinations. You are solely responsible for reviewing, testing, validating, and approving any AI-generated output before relying on it.

8. Availability and Modifications

We strive to keep the Service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of material changes.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to loss of data, revenue, or profits.

10. Termination

You may delete your account at any time from the Account settings. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately.

11. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
