Terms of Service

These Terms are a binding agreement between you and Subject XYZ LLC, a California limited liability company (“Boxic”, “we”, “us”), covering boxic.io and the Boxic application (the “Service”). By creating an account, ticking the acceptance box, or using the Service, you agree to them. If you are agreeing on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind it.

1. Beta service

Boxic is in beta. Features can change or be removed, availability is not guaranteed, there is no service level commitment, and access may be limited to invited users. Keep your own copies of anything critical.

2. Accounts

You must be at least 13 (or the age of digital consent where you live) and provide accurate information. You are responsible for your credentials and for activity under your account. Tell us promptly at hello@boxic.io if you suspect unauthorised access.

3. Your content

You keep all ownership of the files, models, text, and other material you upload or create (“Your Content”). You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, transmit, render, and create technical derivatives (thumbnails, previews, extracted geometry and text) of Your Content solely to operate and improve the Service and to display it to the people you share it with. This licence ends when you delete the content, except for copies in routine backups.

You represent that you have the rights to Your Content and that it does not infringe or misappropriate anyone else's rights, including trade secrets and third-party CAD licences.

4. Public projects and remixing

Publishing a project makes its curated public view — title, summary, tags, cover, approved revision, and public comments — visible to anyone, including search engines. Publishing grants other users a licence to view the project and, where you enable it, to build upon or remix the published revision within the Service, with attribution to your handle. It does not transfer ownership. You can unpublish at any time; that stops future access but does not recall copies already made. Do not publish anything you are not free to disclose.

5. Acceptable use

• No unlawful, infringing, deceptive, or harassing content.
• No malware, scraping at scale, probing, or circumventing limits, quotas, or access controls.
• No designs whose primary purpose is to cause harm, including weapons intended for illegal use.
• No reselling or reverse engineering the Service, and no using it to build a competing product.
• No uploading personal data of others without a lawful basis.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that break these rules, and we terminate repeat infringers. Report content through the report form.

6. AI features

Boxie processes your prompts and project context through third-party AI providers, as described in the Privacy Policy. Output is generated automatically, may be inaccurate or incomplete, may resemble output given to others, and is not engineering, safety, regulatory, or legal advice. You are responsible for reviewing and validating any output before manufacturing, purchasing, or publishing. Usage limits apply and may change.

7. Export control and dual use

Hardware designs can be controlled technology. You are responsible for complying with US export control and sanctions laws (including the EAR and ITAR) and equivalent laws where you operate. Do not upload ITAR-controlled technical data or provide access to it through the Service. You confirm you are not located in an embargoed jurisdiction or on a restricted party list.

8. Storage limits and fees

Workspaces are subject to file size and total storage limits shown in-product. During beta the Service is provided free of charge; we will give notice before introducing paid plans, and no charge applies without your agreement.

9. Third-party connectors

Connecting GitHub, Google Drive, Dropbox, Slack, or similar services is optional and subject to those providers' own terms. We are not responsible for their services or for data you move into or out of them.

10. Termination

You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time in Settings → Account. We may suspend or terminate access for breach of these Terms, legal risk, or discontinuation of the Service, with notice where practical. Sections 3–7 and 11–15 survive termination.

11. Disclaimer

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY IS LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) US$100. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, in which case they apply to the fullest extent permitted.

13. Indemnity

You will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims arising from Your Content, your use of the Service, or your breach of these Terms, and pay resulting damages and reasonable legal fees.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and each waives any objection to that venue. Before filing, please email us so we can try to resolve the issue informally within 30 days. Claims must be brought individually, not as part of a class or representative action, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing here prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief.

15. General

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Notice, are the entire agreement. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them to a successor. Notices to you may be sent to your account email; notices to us go to hello@boxic.io. We will post material changes here and, where the change is significant, ask you to accept them again in-product.
