By creating an account or using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.

4. Your Content

4.1 Ownership

You retain all ownership rights in the content you create, upload, or store within Goby ("Your Content"), including test cases, test plans, execution results, requirements, and any other materials. These Terms do not transfer any ownership of Your Content to us.

4.2 Licence to Goby

By using the Service, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to host, store, process, copy, and display Your Content solely as necessary to provide and improve the Service. This licence ends when you delete Your Content or close your account, subject to any backup retention periods described in our Privacy Policy.

4.3 Your Responsibilities

You are solely responsible for the accuracy, legality, and appropriateness of Your Content. You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to upload Your Content and that it does not violate any third-party intellectual property, privacy, or other rights.

4.4 Content Removal

We reserve the right (but have no obligation) to review and remove Your Content if we reasonably believe it violates these Terms or applicable law. We will try to notify you before removal unless doing so would compromise security or legal obligations.

5. AI-Assisted Features

Goby includes features powered by artificial intelligence, including AI-generated test case suggestions. These features are provided as tools to assist you and are not a substitute for professional judgement.

  • AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate for your use case
  • You are solely responsible for reviewing, validating, and approving any AI-generated output before relying on it
  • We make no guarantee about the quality, accuracy, or fitness for purpose of AI suggestions
  • Content you submit to AI features may be processed by third-party AI providers under our agreements with them

6. Teams, Organisations, and Permissions

Goby supports multi-user team workspaces. Team administrators can invite members, assign roles (such as admin, member, or viewer), and manage project access.

  • Team administrators are responsible for managing member access and ensuring invited users comply with these Terms
  • If you are an organisation administrator, you are responsible for the use of the Service by your team members
  • We are not liable for actions taken by team members under your workspace
  • If your account is associated with an organisation and that organisation's subscription ends, your access may be affected

7. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, interface, code, branding, trademarks, logos, documentation, and all content provided by Goby (excluding Your Content), is owned by or licensed to Goby and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use Goby's name, logo, trademarks, or other proprietary materials without our prior written consent.

8. Feedback

If you provide us with suggestions, feedback, ideas, or recommendations about the Service ("Feedback"), you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use that Feedback for any purpose, including improving the Service and developing new features, without any obligation to compensate you.

  • Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis
  • All fees are non-refundable unless required by law or as described in a separate refund policy
  • Failure to pay may result in suspension of your account
  • We reserve the right to change pricing with at least 30 days' notice to existing subscribers

10. Availability and Modifications

We aim to maintain high availability of the Service but do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at any particular time. We may perform scheduled or emergency maintenance that temporarily affects availability.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature or aspect of the Service at any time. For significant changes or discontinuation of core features, we will provide reasonable advance notice where practicable.

11. Third-Party Services and Integrations

The Service may integrate with or link to third-party services. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices, content, or reliability of third-party services.

12. Termination

12.1 By You

You may stop using the Service at any time. You can delete your account by contacting us at support@goby.app. Upon account deletion, your data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

12.2 By Us

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms, if required by law, or if continuing to provide the Service to you poses a risk to us or others. For non-urgent violations, we will attempt to provide notice and an opportunity to cure before termination.

12.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination, your right to access the Service ceases immediately. Sections of these Terms that by nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability) will continue to apply.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Goby disclaims all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses. We do not warrant that any information provided through the service is accurate, complete, or reliable.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Goby and its affiliates, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunities, arising from or related to your use of or inability to use the service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising under or related to these terms or the service shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total fees paid by you to Goby in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) $100 USD.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above may not apply to you.

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Goby and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your use of the Service; (b) Your Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any third-party rights.

16. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

Before initiating formal legal action, you agree to contact us at legal@goby.app and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Any unresolved disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm. Class action lawsuits and class-wide arbitration are waived to the fullest extent permitted by law.

17. General

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Goby regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce it in the future.

You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations without restriction.

Force Majeure

We are not liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, internet outages, power failures, or government actions.
