ORBIT Terms of Service
Effective Date: 27 June 2026 Operator: Joshua Kaen Bentley ("ORBIT," "we," "us," or "our") Contact: hello@tekanology.com
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of ORBIT, an approval-first AI assistant for planning and producing content for cause and fundraising campaigns (the "Service"). Please read them carefully. They are a binding legal agreement between you and us.
1. Acceptance of These Terms
1.1. By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by any documents incorporated by reference, including our Privacy Policy, Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP"), and Refund Policy.
1.2. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.
1.3. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, charity, or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" refers to both you and that entity.
2. Eligibility and Age
2.1. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, if higher) to create an account and use the Service.
2.2. You represent and warrant that: (a) you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms; (b) you are not barred from using the Service under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction; and (c) all information you provide is accurate and kept up to date.
2.3. The Service is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us data, contact us at hello@tekanology.com.
3. Accounts and Security
3.1. Registration. To use most features you must create an account using an email address and a password, or by signing in with a supported third-party identity provider (for example, Google sign-in). You must provide a display name.
3.2. Your credentials. You are responsible for keeping your password and account credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. We store passwords only as a salted cryptographic hash (bcrypt) and never in plain text; nevertheless, you must choose a strong, unique password.
3.3. Sessions. When you sign in, we issue a short-lived access token and a longer-lived refresh token to keep you signed in. You can end your session by logging out, which revokes your refresh token. Changing your password revokes all active sessions across devices.
3.4. Notify us. You must notify us promptly at hello@tekanology.com of any unauthorized use of your account or any other security breach. We are not liable for any loss arising from unauthorized use of your account that results from your failure to safeguard your credentials.
3.5. Security context. The Service is operated by an early-stage maker. While we use industry practices such as password hashing, encrypted storage of connected-platform tokens, rotating session tokens, and an audit log, no system is perfectly secure. You use the Service with this understanding. Please review our Privacy Policy for details on our data-security practices and their current limitations.
4. Description of the Service — Approval-First by Design
4.1. What ORBIT does. ORBIT is an AI "campaign control plane." Based on the campaign information you provide (such as your goal, story, audience, target amount, deadline, and any source material you upload), the AI proposes drafts and suggestions, which may include:
- discovery of online communities, influencers, and content sources that may be relevant to your cause;
- draft outreach messages addressed to specific people or communities;
- draft "personal ask" messages for you to send to friends, family, or contacts;
- draft social media posts and blog content;
- and timing, audience, and related suggestions.
4.2. The AI only proposes. You decide. You act. This is the core of how the Service works and a condition of using it:
- The AI PROPOSES — it generates drafts and recommendations only.
- YOU APPROVE — every output is a proposal that requires your review and explicit approval. Nothing is treated as final until you approve it.
- YOU PUBLISH or SEND — the Service does not autonomously post, message, email, or contact anyone on your behalf. Where you connect a third-party platform (for example, to publish a post), publishing is triggered by you, after your review. The AI never posts and never sends. The human does.
4.3. You are the controller of your outreach. Because you decide who to contact and what to send, you — not ORBIT — are the sender and the responsible party for every message you publish or send, including AI-drafted messages to third parties. See Sections 8 and 9.
4.4. Changes. The Service is under active development. Features may change, be added, or be removed, and the Service may not yet be hosted on a public domain or fully production-ready. We make no commitment that any particular feature will remain available.
5. Fees and Payment
5.1. Free signup, pay per campaign. Creating an account is free. Creating, editing, and viewing a campaign is free. A one-off charge applies only to unlock (activate) a campaign — that is, to access the AI generation features for that specific campaign. Pricing is in U.S. Dollars (USD).
5.2. Current status. At this time the Service is provided at no monetary cost: campaigns are unlocked via a free or "comped" path and no payment is collected. We may begin charging for campaign unlocks in the future. We will make pricing available before any charge applies.
5.3. Payment processing. When paid billing is enabled, payments will be handled by a third-party payment processor (for example, Stripe). That processor collects and processes your card details directly; we do not receive or store your full card number. We store only a transaction reference, amount, currency, and status. Your use of the processor is subject to its own terms and privacy policy.
5.4. Per-campaign entitlement. An unlock applies to the specific campaign for which it was purchased and is not transferable between campaigns or accounts.
5.5. Taxes. Stated prices may exclude applicable taxes, which are your responsibility unless we state otherwise.
5.6. Refunds. Refunds, if any, are governed by our Refund Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.
6. Acceptable Use
6.1. Your use of the Service is subject to our Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP"), which is incorporated into these Terms. By using the Service you agree to comply with the AUP.
6.2. Without limiting the AUP, you agree that you will not use the Service to:
- (a) generate, send, or publish unlawful, deceptive, fraudulent, harassing, defamatory, hateful, or infringing content;
- (b) run a fundraising campaign that is fraudulent, misrepresents its purpose or beneficiary, or that you are not legally authorized to conduct;
- (c) send unsolicited messages in violation of anti-spam and electronic-communications laws (including, where applicable, CAN-SPAM, CASL, and ePrivacy/PECR rules), or contact anyone who has asked not to be contacted;
- (d) target, profile, or contact individuals or communities where you lack a lawful basis or the necessary permission to do so;
- (e) raise funds for, or promote, regulated activities (such as securities offerings, political fundraising, or medical solicitations) without meeting all applicable legal and regulatory requirements; or
- (f) infringe any third party's rights, including privacy, data-protection, intellectual-property, or platform rights.
6.3. Your legal responsibility for third-party data and outreach. The Service can discover, score, and draft messages about and to people who have not signed up for ORBIT. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your collection, use, profiling, and contacting of any such individual or community complies with all applicable laws (including data-protection laws such as the GDPR/UK GDPR and CCPA/CPRA, and anti-spam laws), including providing any required notices, establishing a lawful basis, and honoring opt-out and suppression requests. The Service's consent and approval fields are tools to help you record your own decisions; they are not legal advice and do not establish a lawful basis on your behalf.
7. User Content, Inputs, and Intellectual Property
7.1. Your inputs. "Your Content" means everything you provide to the Service, including campaign details, stories, uploaded files (images, PDFs, briefs), donation figures you enter, and information you supply about audiences, communities, or individuals. As between you and us, you retain all rights you have in Your Content.
7.2. License to operate the Service. You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Your Content solely to operate, provide, secure, and improve the Service for you — including sending it to the AI model that generates proposals. The scope of this processing, including whether the AI runs on local infrastructure or via a third-party AI provider, is described in our Privacy Policy.
7.3. AI-drafted output. Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of any applicable fees, as between you and us, you own the AI-drafted output (such as posts, outreach drafts, and personal-ask drafts) that you review and approve. You are responsible for that output once you adopt, publish, or send it.
7.4. Nature of AI output. AI-generated output may be unintentionally similar to other material, may not be eligible for intellectual-property protection in every jurisdiction, and may not be unique to you. We do not warrant that output is original or that your use of it will not infringe any third party's rights. You are responsible for reviewing output before use.
7.5. You are responsible for what you send. You — not ORBIT — are solely responsible for all content you publish, send, or distribute, including AI-drafted content you choose to use, and including any message addressed to a third party. Once you approve and publish or send, that act and its consequences are yours.
7.6. Our rights. We and our licensors retain all rights in the Service itself, including its software, design, models we license, trademarks, and underlying technology. These Terms do not grant you any rights in the Service except the limited right to use it as permitted here.
7.7. Feedback. If you send us suggestions or feedback, we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.
8. AI Disclaimer — No Guarantee of Accuracy or Outcome
8.1. AI output is a proposal, not a fact. The Service uses AI models to generate drafts and suggestions. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased, offensive, or unsuitable for your purpose. Information about discovered communities, influencers, sources, or individuals (including names, handles, reach figures, and fit/risk scores) may be wrong, fabricated, or out of date.
8.2. You must review before use. You must independently review, verify, and edit any AI output before relying on it, approving it, publishing it, or sending it. Do not send a message, contact a person, or publish content you have not checked.
8.3. No outcome guarantee. We make no guarantee of any fundraising result or any other outcome. We do not promise that any campaign will raise money, that any outreach will succeed, that any audience estimate is accurate, or that any suggestion is effective or appropriate.
8.4. Accuracy of third-party information. Reach figures, scores, contact details, and rationales generated about third parties are estimates produced by a model and may be inaccurate. You must not treat them as verified facts.
9. Third-Party Platforms and Services
9.1. Connected platforms. The Service lets you connect third-party platforms (for example, Facebook/Instagram, Pinterest, and self-hosted WordPress) so that you can publish content you have approved. When you connect a platform, you authorize us to store the necessary access credentials (encrypted) and to act on the publishing actions you initiate.
9.2. Their rules apply. Your use of any third-party platform is governed by that platform's own terms, policies, and community rules. You are responsible for complying with them, including their rules on automation, content, advertising, and outreach. A platform may suspend or restrict your account for violations; that is between you and the platform.
9.3. No responsibility for third parties. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party platforms, payment processors, AI providers, or any other third-party service, including their availability, accuracy, security, or acts and omissions. Links to or integrations with third parties are provided for convenience only.
9.4. AI providers. AI proposals are generated by an AI model. Depending on configuration, this may be a model running on the operator's own infrastructure or a third-party hosted AI provider. Where a third-party AI provider is used, Your Content and certain third-party data is transmitted to that provider for processing. Details, including any sub-processors and cross-border transfers, are described in our Privacy Policy.
10. No Professional Advice
10.1. The Service and its AI output are provided for general informational and productivity purposes only. They are not legal, financial, tax, accounting, fundraising-compliance, charitable-registration, medical, political-campaign, or other professional advice, and must not be relied on as such.
10.2. Fundraising is regulated differently across jurisdictions and campaign types (for example, charitable solicitation registration, securities rules, political-finance rules, and rules for medical or disaster-relief appeals). You are responsible for determining and meeting all legal and regulatory requirements that apply to your campaign and your outreach. Consult a qualified professional where appropriate.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
11.1. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
11.2. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components, that defects will be corrected, that any data will not be lost, or that AI output will be accurate, reliable, lawful for your use, or fit for any purpose.
11.3. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. In that case, such warranties are limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.
12. Limitation of Liability
12.1. No indirect damages. To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will we (or our owners, operators, or suppliers) be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, funds raised or not raised, data, or business, arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
12.2. Liability cap. To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us for the Service in the three (3) months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) fifty U.S. dollars (USD $50). Because signup is free and the Service may currently be provided at no charge, this amount may be zero or nominal.
12.3. Outreach and third-party data. Without limiting the above, we are not liable for any claim arising from your contacting of any person or community, your use of AI-drafted outreach, your handling of third-party personal data, or any third party's response to your campaign or messages.
12.4. Basis of the bargain. The disclaimers and limitations in these Terms reflect a reasonable allocation of risk and are a fundamental basis of the bargain between you and us. They apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.
12.5. Exceptions. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (for example, liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation).
13. Indemnification
13.1. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Joshua Kaen Bentley and its owners, operators, employees, and agents from and against any claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) Your Content; (b) your use of the Service; (c) any content you publish or send and any person or community you contact; (d) your handling of third-party personal data, including any failure to provide required notices, establish a lawful basis, or honor opt-outs; (e) your fundraising campaign, including its lawfulness and regulatory compliance; (f) your violation of these Terms, the AUP, or any law; or (g) your violation of any third party's rights or any third-party platform's rules.
13.2. We may, at our own expense, assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with us.
14. Suspension and Termination
14.1. By you. You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. Deletion and retention of your data are addressed in our Privacy Policy.
14.2. By us. We may suspend or terminate your access, in whole or in part, with or without notice, if: (a) we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or the AUP; (b) your use poses a security, legal, or reputational risk; (c) required by law or a third-party provider; or (d) we discontinue the Service.
14.3. Effect of termination. On termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections that by their nature should survive — including Sections 6.3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, and 16 — survive termination.
14.4. Data after termination. Note that some data may persist after account closure as described in our Privacy Policy, and certain records (such as audit logs) may be retained as required for security and legal purposes.
15. Changes to the Service and to These Terms
15.1. We may modify these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you (for example, by email or an in-product notice) and update the "Effective Date" above.
15.2. Changes are effective when posted, unless stated otherwise. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service.
15.3. We may also change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, as described in Section 4.4.
16. Governing Law and Disputes
16.1. Governing law. These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Service are governed by the laws of Australia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
16.2. Jurisdiction. You agree that the courts located in Australia will have jurisdiction to resolve any dispute, subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under the law of your country of residence.
16.3. Informal resolution. Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact us at hello@tekanology.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally.
16.4. No mandatory arbitration. We do not require you to arbitrate disputes or to waive class actions. Disputes are handled as set out in this Section 16.
16.5. Consumer rights. Nothing in this Section deprives you of any mandatory legal protection available to you as a consumer in your place of residence.
17. General
17.1. Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Acceptable Use Policy, and Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
17.2. Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full effect, and the unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
17.3. No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
17.4. Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
17.5. No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any rights for third parties, except as expressly stated.
17.6. Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
