Terms of Service

1. Who you are contracting with

Almugea ("the Service", "we", "us") is operated by Fábio Miguel Rodrigues Barbosa, Rua Miguel Bombarda 35, 2590-035 Sobral de Monte Agraço, Portugal ("the Operator"). By creating an account or using the Service you enter into these Terms with the Operator. Contact: support@almugea.com.

2. The Service

Almugea is a web application for traditional astrology: it computes natal and other charts, traditional indicators, predictive techniques, and chart comparisons. Using the Service requires an account. With a free account, your charts and settings are stored in your own browser and never leave your device; a Pro subscription adds cloud sync across devices and additional features.

Astrological output is provided for study and personal interest. It is not medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice, and you should not treat it as a substitute for professional advice of any kind.

3. Acceptance

By using the Service you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. We may update these Terms; material changes will be announced on the site or by email, and continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance.

4. Accounts

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. You agree to provide accurate information, keep it up to date, and keep your credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account. Two-factor authentication is available and recommended.

5. Plans, trial, and renewal

• Free: a permanent free tier. Casting charts and the core features remain free; your chart data is stored in your own browser only.
• Pro trial: new accounts receive a 14-day trial of the Pro features. No payment details are required for the trial.
• Pro subscription: monthly or annual, auto-renewing until cancelled.

When a trial or subscription ends, your account reverts to the free tier. You never lose your charts: everything saved on your devices remains readable, castable, and exportable; only the Pro features and cloud sync stop.

6. Payments — sold through Link

All purchases are made through Stripe's Managed Payments service. The seller and merchant of record for every purchase is Sold through Link, LLC, an affiliate of Stripe: your purchase contract for the payment itself is with Sold through Link, which handles payment processing, receipts and invoices, applicable taxes (VAT or sales tax, calculated and shown at checkout), renewals, refunds and disputes. Those terms are set out in the Sold through Link terms, which apply to every purchase. Prices are listed in euro; the checkout may show the equivalent in your local currency. Purchases appear on your statement as LINK.COM* followed by our name.

You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time from your account page or from your Link account. Consumers in the EU and the UK have a 14-day cooling-off period from first access to Pro, exercised through Link support. Refunds are governed by our Refund Policy.

7. Acceptable use

You must not: use the Service unlawfully; commit fraud or send spam through it; infringe intellectual-property rights; interfere with its security or operation (malware, probing, scraping, circumventing rate limits or technical restrictions); reverse engineer the software; or resell or redistribute the Service.

8. Your content and our intellectual property

Chart data, notes, and settings you store are yours. You grant us a limited licence to host and process them solely to provide the Service (storage, sync, computation). If you enter another person's birth data, you are responsible for having the right to do so.

The Service — its software, design, documentation, and branding — is owned by the Operator and protected by intellectual-property law. Astronomical computation uses the Swiss Ephemeris under a commercial licence. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership to you.

9. Availability

The Service is provided "as is". We work to keep it reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, and all implied warranties are disclaimed to the fullest extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that consumer law grants you and that cannot be contractually waived.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate access for material breach of these Terms, non-payment, security or fraud risk, or repeated policy violations. You may delete your account at any time from the account page. Deleting your account cancels any active subscription immediately and permanently removes your server-side data as described in the Privacy Policy; charts stored in your own browser are untouched.

11. Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, consequential, or special damages (including loss of profits, data, or goodwill), and our aggregate liability is capped at the fees you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim. Nothing excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

12. Governing law and language

These Terms are governed by Portuguese law; mandatory consumer protections of your country of residence remain unaffected. Disputes go to the competent Portuguese courts, or your local courts where consumer law so provides. Consumers in Portugal may also use the electronic complaints book at livroreclamacoes.pt. The English text of these Terms prevails; Portuguese translations are provided for convenience.
