Terms of Service

Last updated: October 6, 2026

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Afterify, LLC ("Afterify", "we", "us", or "our"). They govern your access to and use of the www.afterify.com website (the "Site") and the products and services we offer through it — including Afterify Studio, the Website Builder, client galleries, digital storage, the integrated e-commerce Store, and any related applications, media channels, or features (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing the Site or using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with all of these Terms, you must not use the Site or the Services. Supplemental terms or documents that we post on the Site from time to time are expressly incorporated into these Terms by reference.

2. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above, and for material changes we will provide reasonable advance notice — for example by posting a notice on the Site or emailing the address associated with your account. Changes take effect when posted (or on the effective date stated in the notice). Your continued use of the Site or Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Services and may cancel your account.

3. Eligibility

To use the Services you must be at least 16 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. If you use the Services on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, in which case "you" refers to that entity. The Services are not intended for use in any jurisdiction where such use would be contrary to law or would subject us to any registration requirement; if you access the Services from such a location, you do so at your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

4. Your Account

Some parts of the Services require an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when registering and to keep that information up to date. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorized by you. Notify us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized use of your account. We may suspend or terminate your account and refuse current or future use of the Services if any information you provide is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete.

5. Plans, Free Trials, and Payment

Afterify offers a free plan (the "Free plan") and paid subscription plans, including optional storage add-ons; current plans, limits, and pricing are described on our plans page. By subscribing to a paid plan you agree to provide current, complete, and accurate billing information and to keep it up to date, including your email address, payment method, and payment card expiration date.

Billing and automatic renewal. Subscription fees, including any storage add-on, are billed in advance on a recurring monthly or yearly basis, as you choose. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period, and your payment method is charged the then-current price for your plan and billing interval, until you cancel. You can cancel online at any time from your account's billing settings. For yearly subscriptions, we will send you a reminder before each renewal. Payments are collected by third-party payment processors selected by Afterify.
Free trials. New accounts may include a free trial of a paid plan, for the period stated at sign-up, that does not require a payment method. When the trial ends, your account moves to the Free plan unless you subscribe; you are not charged automatically. Content over the Free plan's limits is handled as described under Moving to the Free plan below. We may limit free trials to one per person or business.
Plan changes. You may upgrade or downgrade your plan, change your storage option, or switch between monthly and yearly billing at any time from your account. Changes take effect immediately. Upgrades are charged the prorated difference at the time of the change, and if that payment cannot be collected the change is not applied. Downgrades, and switching from yearly to monthly billing, credit the unused portion of your current period to your account, to be applied against future charges; account credits have no cash value and are not refunded.
Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period: you keep your paid plan until then, you will not be charged again, and you can undo the cancellation before the period ends. Your account then moves to the Free plan.
Moving to the Free plan. When your account moves to the Free plan (because a trial ends, you cancel, or a subscription ends for non-payment), the Free plan's limits apply. Website pages, blog posts, and websites over those limits are taken offline but kept, and are restored if you subscribe again; photos and videos used only on that offline content may be deleted after a grace period of at least 30 days, of which we will notify you in advance. If your stored content exceeds the Free plan's storage limit, uploads are paused and we will notify you by email; you must reduce your storage below the limit or subscribe within the grace period we communicate (at least 30 days). After that period, we may permanently delete content over the limit, starting with the galleries you uploaded to least recently and only to the extent needed to bring your storage within the limit.
Storage and fair use. Each plan includes the storage shown on our plans page, and additional storage is available as a paid add-on. "Unlimited" storage is provided for photos and videos you deliver to clients or display through the Services, at levels typical of a working photography business. It is not intended for bulk backup or archiving, file hosting, or content unrelated to your use of the Services. If your usage is far above typical levels, we may contact you to discuss options, such as reducing usage or a custom arrangement, before taking any action, and we will not delete content under this policy without notice.
Refunds. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable and we do not provide refunds for partial billing periods, including when you cancel. The only credits for unused time are the account credits for plan changes described above. We may grant refunds in our sole discretion.
Price changes. We may change subscription pricing with reasonable advance notice, which we will send to the email address on your account. A price change takes effect at the start of your next billing period after the notice (for yearly subscriptions, at your next renewal), and you may cancel before then. Your continued use of the paid Services after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price.
Taxes. Stated fees exclude applicable taxes, which will be added where we are required to collect them.
Failed payments and chargebacks. We reserve the right to correct pricing errors, even if payment has been requested or received, and to refuse any order. If a subscription payment fails, we (or our payment processor) will retry it over the following days and notify you so you can update your payment method. If the payment still cannot be collected, your subscription is canceled and your account moves to the Free plan as described above. If we receive a chargeback, we may suspend or terminate your access to paid features. In the event of a chargeback, you may be required to pay outstanding fees and any fees incurred from the chargeback before regaining access.

6. Selling Through the Store

The Store lets you offer your work for sale to your own customers. If you sell through the Store, you understand and agree that:

each sale is a transaction between you and your customer — Afterify is not a party to it, and we do not buy, sell, or resell your products;
you are solely responsible for your products and listings, for fulfilling orders, and for handling your customers' inquiries, refunds, returns, and disputes;
you are solely responsible for determining, collecting, and remitting any taxes that apply to your sales, and for complying with all laws that apply to you as a seller;
where your plan includes a Store commission, we deduct the applicable commission (as described on our plans page) from each sale before remitting the proceeds to you, and you may not structure transactions to circumvent that commission;
payouts are processed by our third-party payment processors and are subject to their terms and verification requirements.

7. Your Content

"Your Content" means the photographs, images, text, files, and any other material you upload to or create through the Services, including content on websites and galleries you build with Afterify. You retain full ownership of Your Content and all intellectual property rights in it — nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of Your Content to us.

So that we can operate the Services, you grant Afterify a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for technical purposes such as resizing and formatting), publicly display, distribute, and transmit Your Content solely as necessary to provide, maintain, and improve the Services and as directed by you (for example, publishing a gallery you choose to share). This license ends when Your Content is deleted from the Services, except to the extent copies remain in routine backups for a limited period or retention is required by law.

You represent and warrant that you own or have all rights necessary to upload Your Content and to grant the license above, and that Your Content does not infringe or violate the rights of any third party or any applicable law. You are solely responsible for Your Content. We may, at our discretion, remove or disable access to any content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or applicable law, and you agree to promptly remove any such content if we ask you to.

8. Our Intellectual Property

Excluding Your Content and content provided by third parties, the Site and Services — including all source code, databases, functionality, software, designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics (the "Content"), and the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the "Marks") — are owned or licensed by us and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Site and Services for their intended purposes. Except as expressly permitted, no part of the Site, Content, or Marks may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, publicly displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted, distributed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose without our express prior written permission.

9. Feedback

If you send us questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, or other feedback about the Site or Services ("Feedback"), you agree that we may use it for any purpose without restriction, acknowledgment, or compensation to you. Feedback is provided on a non-confidential basis. This section applies to Feedback only — it does not apply to Your Content.

10. Prohibited Activities

You may not access or use the Site or Services for any purpose other than that for which we make them available. In particular, you agree not to:

upload, post, or sell content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene, or that you do not have the right to use;
violate the intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights of others;
use the Services to send spam, chain letters, or other unsolicited communications, or to collect personal information about others without their consent;
upload or transmit viruses, malware, or any other code intended to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to any system or data;
access the Services through automated or non-human means (bots, scripts, scrapers), or copy, mirror, or frame any part of the Site without our permission;
interfere with, disrupt, or place an undue burden on the Services or the networks connected to them, or attempt to bypass any security or access-control measures;
reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Services, or resell, sublicense, or make the Services available to third parties except as the Services are designed to allow;
impersonate any person or entity, misrepresent your affiliation with anyone, or use another user's account without permission;
circumvent fees owed to us, including Store commissions;
use the Services in violation of any applicable law or regulation.

11. Copyright Complaints

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. If you believe that content available through the Services infringes a copyright you own or control, please send a notice to [email protected] that includes: (1) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (2) identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location on the Services; (3) your contact information; (4) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; (5) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf; and (6) your physical or electronic signature. We will respond to valid notices consistent with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and applicable law, which may include removing or disabling access to the material and, for repeat infringers, terminating accounts.

12. Third-Party Services and Links

The Services rely on and may link to third-party services — for example payment processors — and the Site may contain links to third-party websites. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third party. Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We are not a party to, and are not responsible for monitoring, any transaction between you and a third-party provider of products or services.

13. Site and Service Management

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to: (1) monitor the Site and Services for violations of these Terms; (2) take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in our reasonable judgment, violates the law or these Terms, including reporting such user to law enforcement authorities; (3) refuse, restrict access to, limit the availability of, or disable any of Your Content or any portion thereof to the extent it violates these Terms or applicable law; (4) remove or disable files and content that are excessive in size or burdensome to our systems, subject, for storage within your plan, to the notice described in Section 5 (Storage and fair use, and Moving to the Free plan); and (5) otherwise manage the Site and Services in a manner designed to protect our rights and property and to facilitate their proper functioning.

14. Term and Termination

These Terms remain in effect while you use the Site or Services. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site or Services — including blocking certain IP addresses — and delete your account and Your Content, if you materially breach these Terms, violate applicable law, or where we reasonably believe it necessary to protect the Services, our users, or third parties. Where practicable, we will give you notice and an opportunity to cure before terminating your account for breach. If we terminate or suspend your account, you may not register a new account under your name, a false name, or the name of a third party. We also reserve the right to pursue appropriate legal remedies, including civil, criminal, and injunctive redress.

Canceling a subscription does not close your account; your account moves to the Free plan as described in Section 5. If you delete your account, or we terminate it, the contents of your account (including Your Content and any end-user data collected through your use of the Services) may be deleted following a reasonable wind-down period, except where retention is required by law.

Inactive Free accounts. If an account on the Free plan is not signed in to for an extended period (currently 120 days), we may delete its content and deactivate the account. We will email the account owner before doing so, and signing in before the date in that notice keeps the account active.

We encourage you to keep your own backups of Your Content; we are not liable for loss of data resulting from deletion in accordance with these Terms.

15. Modifications and Interruptions

We are continually improving the Services and reserve the right to change, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Site or Services at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to give advance notice of changes that materially reduce the functionality of a paid plan. We cannot guarantee that the Site or Services will be available at all times — hardware, software, or other problems, or maintenance, may result in interruptions, delays, or errors. To the extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to access the Site or Services during any downtime or discontinuance.

16. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS-IS" AND "AS-AVAILABLE" BASIS. YOUR USE OF THE SITE AND SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE CONTENT OF THE SITE OR ANY WEBSITES LINKED TO IT, AND WE ASSUME NO LIABILITY FOR ANY (1) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT AND MATERIALS; (2) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SITE OR SERVICES; (3) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF OUR SERVERS AND/OR ANY PERSONAL OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN; (4) INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SITE OR SERVICES; (5) BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SITE OR SERVICES BY ANY THIRD PARTY; OR (6) ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SITE OR SERVICES. WE DO NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE, OR ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE ADVERTISED OR OFFERED BY A THIRD PARTY THROUGH THE SITE OR ANY HYPERLINKED WEBSITE. AS WITH ANY PURCHASE THROUGH ANY MEDIUM, USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND EXERCISE CAUTION WHERE APPROPRIATE.

17. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, OR LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS ($100). CERTAIN US STATE LAWS AND INTERNATIONAL LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

18. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Afterify, our subsidiaries and affiliates, and our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) Your Content, including any sales you make through the Store; (2) your use of the Site or Services; (3) your breach of these Terms or of the representations and warranties in them; (4) your violation of the rights of a third party, including intellectual property rights; or (5) any harmful act toward any other user of the Services with whom you connected via the Services. We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim upon becoming aware of it.

19. User Data and Backups

We maintain certain data that you transmit to the Services for the purpose of operating them, as well as data relating to your use of the Services. Although we perform regular routine backups, you are responsible for keeping your own copies of Your Content and any data you transmit. To the extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for loss or corruption of such data, except where caused by our breach of these Terms.

20. Electronic Communications and Signatures

Visiting the Site, sending us emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide to you electronically, via email or on the Site, satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing. You agree to the use of electronic signatures, contracts, orders, and other records, and to electronic delivery of notices, policies, and records of transactions initiated or completed by us or via the Services.

21. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms and your use of the Site and Services are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska and the federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Before filing a claim, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Nebraska, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable rights you may have under the consumer-protection laws of your place of residence.

22. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Site, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Site and Services. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not operate as a waiver of that right or provision. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time; you may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We are not responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision is severable and does not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. Nothing in these Terms creates any joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship between you and us. You agree that these Terms will not be construed against us by virtue of our having drafted them.
