Terms of Service

1. About CheckRay
CheckRay (“CheckRay,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a consumer risk-awareness service. We use AI and automated checks to help you identify possible red flags in suspicious texts, emails, bills, fees, collection notices, job listings, links, and other documents (“Items”).
CheckRay is NOT a law firm. CheckRay does NOT provide legal, financial, medical, or any other type of professional advice.
AI and automated analysis can be wrong. Results are probabilistic and informational only. You are responsible for your own decisions. Always verify with official sources and qualified professionals.
2. Eligibility

You agree to use CheckRay only for lawful purposes in accordance with our Acceptable Use Policy, incorporated here by reference.
5. User Content & License
When you submit Items to CheckRay, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to process, store, transmit, and analyze that content solely to deliver our service to you. We do not sell your submitted content or use it to train third-party AI models without your explicit consent. You retain all ownership rights.
6. Subscriptions, Billing & Refunds
CheckRay may offer free and paid tiers. Paid subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis as specified at checkout. You may cancel at any time from account settings; cancellation takes effect at end of the current billing period.
⚠️ [LAWYER REVIEW: refund policy — specify pro-rated refund, cancellation, and chargeback dispute policies in detail.]
7. Disclaimers & No Guarantees
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT ANY RESULT IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR RELIABLE. CheckRay does NOT guarantee that any message, link, job, bill, fee, or document is safe, legitimate, fraudulent, enforceable, payable, or otherwise.
IN EMERGENCIES, IMMINENT THREATS, IDENTITY THEFT, FRAUD LOSS, LEGAL DEADLINES, MEDICAL ISSUES, OR FINANCIAL HARM - CONTACT THE RELEVANT PROFESSIONAL OR AUTHORITY IMMEDIATELY.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CHECKMATE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE PRIOR 12 MONTHS, OR (B) $100 USD.

10. Dispute Resolution
⚠️ [LAWYER REVIEW: arbitration clause, class action waiver, governing law, and venue.]
These Terms are governed by the laws of the applicable jurisdiction without regard to conflict of law principles.
