2.3. The Company reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. The Client will be notified of any material changes at least thirty (30) days prior to their effective date. Continued use of the Platform after such changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.

3.2. Each account and its associated login credentials are strictly personal and nominative. The Client’s access credentials (username and password) are non-transferable and may only be used by the individual to whom they have been assigned. Sharing, lending, or disclosing account credentials to any third party — including other employees, contractors, partners, or affiliates of the Client — is strictly prohibited.

Article 4 — Description of Services
4.1. The Platform provides the following core services:
- An online interface allowing Clients to create, organize, and manage audio guide content for tourist routes, stops, and points of interest;
- Script writing and editing tools for defining audio content per stop or waypoint;
- Automated translation of scripts into multiple languages using AI-powered translation technology;
- An integrated, fully automated audio production pipeline operated by the Company, which transforms Client-submitted scripts into natural-sounding audio narrations. Audio production is delivered as an integral component of the Platform; the Client interacts solely with the Wavlo interface and never directly accesses or operates any underlying voice synthesis engine, third-party API, or production infrastructure, which are managed exclusively by the Company;
- Audio file management, storage, and delivery in standard formats (MP3, WAV, etc.);
- Analytics and reporting tools to monitor content performance and usage.
4.2. The Company continuously improves the Platform and may add, modify, or discontinue features at its discretion. Material changes that adversely affect the Client’s use of core Services will be communicated with reasonable notice.
4.3. The Services are provided on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis. While the Company strives to maintain high service quality, it does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Platform.
Article 5 — License Fee, Credits, and Pricing
5A. Annual License Fee
5.1. Access to the Platform requires the payment of an annual license fee (hereinafter the “License Fee”). The License Fee grants the Client the right to access and use the Platform for one (1) year from the date of payment.
5.2. The License Fee covers access to the Platform interface, tools, and features. It does not include any audio generation capacity, which is exclusively provided through the Credit system described below.
5.3. The License Fee is due annually in advance and is non-refundable once the license period has commenced. The current applicable License Fee is published on the Platform.
5.4. The Company reserves the right to modify the License Fee with thirty (30) days’ prior notice. Fee changes shall apply at the next renewal date.
5B. Credit System
5.5. Audio production on the Platform operates on a prepaid Credit system. Credits represent prepaid units of audio production capacity delivered by the Company through its integrated production pipeline, and are purchased separately from the License Fee.
5.6. Credits are consumed upon successful delivery of audio content produced by the Company’s integrated production pipeline in response to the Client’s submission of a script or content request through the Platform interface. The number of Credits consumed per audio delivery depends on the duration, language, voice type, and complexity of the audio produced, as detailed in the Platform’s pricing documentation. For the avoidance of doubt, the Client does not directly access, control, or operate any voice synthesis technology, and all audio production is carried out by the Company as part of the Services.
5.7. The Client may reload their Credit balance at any time by purchasing additional Credit packages through the Platform. Available Credit packages and their pricing are published on the Platform.
5.8. Unused Credits remain valid for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of purchase. After this period, unused Credits shall expire automatically without refund or compensation.
5.9. Credits are strictly non-transferable between accounts and non-refundable, except as expressly provided in Article 13 (Termination). Credits purchased under one account cannot be transferred, assigned, or gifted to another account under any circumstances.
5.10. The Company reserves the right to modify Credit pricing and consumption rates at any time. Such changes shall not affect Credits already purchased but shall apply to future purchases.
5.11. All prices are quoted exclusive of applicable taxes (VAT, GST, or equivalent). The Client is responsible for all taxes applicable in their jurisdiction.
Article 6 — Payment Terms
6.1. Subscription fees are due in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the plan selected. Credit purchases are due at the time of order.
6.2. Payments shall be made via the payment methods accepted on the Platform (credit card, bank transfer, or other methods as offered). The Client authorizes automatic recurring payments for Subscription renewals.
6.3. In the event of payment failure, the Company shall notify the Client and provide a grace period of seven (7) calendar days. If payment is not received within this grace period, the Company may suspend access to the Platform until the outstanding amount is settled.
6.4. Any amount remaining unpaid after thirty (30) days from the due date shall bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower), calculated from the due date until full payment is received.
6.5. The Company reserves the right to modify its pricing at any time. Price changes for existing Subscriptions shall take effect at the next renewal period, with at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice.
