3. Access to the Services and License Grant
License Grant: Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Slidea grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, and limited license to access and use the Services for your own personal or internal business purposes. This license allows you to use Slidea’s website and applications as intended—for creating and sharing presentations and related content—but only as permitted by these Terms and any guidelines or rules we publish. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by Slidea and its licensors.
This license is provided “as is” and is solely for your use of Slidea in accordance with the Terms. You may not use the Services for any resale, sub-licensing, or to operate a competing service (see Section 10 on prohibited uses). You may only use Slidea in lawful ways, and you agree to follow all usage instructions and policies we make available.
Scope of Access: Your access to the Site and Services is for the purpose of utilizing Slidea’s functionalities (such as creating interactive slides, importing presentations, conducting live polls or Q&A, etc.). You agree not to access (or attempt to access) the Site by any means other than the interface provided by Slidea, and not to use unauthorized automated means (e.g. scripts or web crawlers) to access the Services.
4. Intellectual Property Rights
All content and materials provided through the Services (excluding User-generated Content as defined above) are the property of Slidea or its licensors and are protected by worldwide intellectual property laws. This includes, but is not limited to, the software and code underlying our platform, the design, layout, look and feel of the Site, graphics, logos, trademarks, and any text or media content provided by Slidea. Slidea (and/or our licensors) retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services and all associated intellectual property.
Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership of our intellectual property to you. Your permission to use the Services is limited by the license grant in Section 3. You must not do anything that infringes or violates Slidea’s intellectual property rights, such as copying, distributing, or creating derivative works from our content, except as explicitly allowed by us.
Trademarks: The name “Slidea,” our logos, and any other brand identifiers of Slidea are trademarks or service marks owned by Deckzi Solutions Private Limited (or its affiliates). You may not use Slidea’s name or branding (including logos or screenshots of the interface) for any purpose not authorized in writing by us. All other product or company names mentioned on the Service may be trademarks of their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only.
5. Account Types, Subscription Plans, and Billing
Slidea offers different account types or subscription plans (for example, Basic, Pro, Enterprise, etc.), which may vary in features, usage limits, and pricing. Details of the current plans and their features are provided on our official Pricing page on the Slidea website. Please review the plan descriptions carefully before choosing a plan, as they outline the allowances and limits (such as number of team members, storage capacity, or audience size) for each tier.
Subscription Plans: When you register for a paid subscription plan, you are purchasing access to certain premium features or higher usage limits of Slidea for a specified subscription period (e.g. month-to-month or annual). Your subscription will begin when we confirm your payment and will continue for the subscription period (and any renewal periods, unless canceled as described below).
Billing and Payment: Slidea’s paid plans are generally billed in advance on a recurring basis. This means:
- If you choose a monthly plan, you will be charged at the start of each monthly billing cycle. If you choose an annual plan, you will be charged upfront for the entire year.
- When you subscribe, you must provide a valid payment method (such as a credit/debit card or other payment processor we support like PayPal, Stripe, Razorpay, etc.). You authorize Slidea to automatically charge your provided payment method for the applicable fees on the schedule of your subscription (e.g. each month or year, unless you cancel).
- Auto-Renewal: Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel the subscription before that period ends. For example, an annual plan will renew for another year if you do not cancel before the current year is over. We will continue to bill your payment method for the renewal term’s fee.
Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time by using the account management or billing settings in your Slidea Account dashboard, or by contacting our support. If you cancel, your subscription will not renew at the next billing cycle. You will continue to have access to the paid features until the end of your current paid-up period, but no refunds will be provided for any remaining time in that period unless stated otherwise in our Refund Policy or required by law. (See Section 6 on Refund Policy for more details.) After cancellation, or if your subscription expires due to non-payment, your Account may be downgraded to a free/basic tier with limited features.
Upgrades and Downgrades: If you upgrade your plan (for example, moving from a Basic plan to a Pro plan) during a billing cycle, the change may take effect immediately and a pro-rated charge may be applied (i.e., you’ll be charged a proportional amount for the remainder of the current billing period at the new rate). If you downgrade your plan (moving to a lower tier), the change will typically take effect at the start of your next billing cycle to avoid interrupting your current service; however, you may lose access to some features or Content that exceed the limits of the new plan once it takes effect. Charges or credits for plan changes mid-cycle will be handled in a pro-rated manner as appropriate.
Non-Payment: It is your responsibility to ensure your payment information is accurate and up-to-date. If a scheduled payment fails or if you fail to pay subscription fees when due, we may attempt to notify you and retry the payment method. If a payment attempt fails or a subscription is not renewed, Slidea will automatically downgrade your account to the free (non-paid) plan at the end of your current billing cycle. During this downgrade, you will retain access to your account and Content, but your access will be limited to the features and limits of the free plan.
6. Payment, Subscriptions, and Refund Policy
Fees and Charges: By subscribing to a paid plan or making any purchase through Slidea, you agree to pay the applicable fees for that plan or service. All fees are stated in the pricing information on our website or as otherwise communicated to you. All charges are non-refundable except as expressly provided in these Terms, in our Refund Policy, or as required by applicable law. This means that once you have been billed for a subscription period, you will generally not receive a refund for that period (for example, if you cancel mid-term, the remaining time in the period is not refunded). We may make exceptions or provide refunds in specific cases as outlined in a separate Refund Policy (if one is published) or in special promotional terms, or if required by consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction.
Recurring Billing: When you sign up for a subscription, you understand and agree that it is a recurring payment plan. Slidea will automatically charge your chosen payment method at the start of each billing cycle (month, year, or other period) without further authorization from you, until you cancel the subscription. It is your responsibility to cancel your subscription in a timely manner if you do not wish to renew it. We may send a reminder or notice of upcoming renewal charges, especially for annual plans or if there is a change in pricing, but failure to read such notice does not affect your responsibility for auto-renewal payments.
Payment Information: You must provide current, complete, and accurate billing information. If your payment details (such as billing address, card number or expiration) change, you must promptly update them. If you fail to update payment information and we cannot charge you, it will be treated as a non-payment. Slidea is not responsible for fees incurred due to outdated payment information, such as overdraft fees or foreign transaction fees.
Price Changes: Slidea may adjust the pricing for its plans or services from time to time. If we make a material change to the price of your subscription, we will provide you with advance notice (for example, by email or by a notification within the Service) describing the change and when it will take effect. Fee changes will not apply retroactively; they will apply from the start of your next billing period following the date of the price change. If you do not agree with a price change, you may cancel your subscription before the new price takes effect. Continuing to use the Services after the price change becomes effective constitutes your acceptance of the new fees.
Refunds: As noted above, fees are generally non-refundable. However, if you believe you are entitled to a refund (for instance, if you were mistakenly charged, or you qualify under a money-back guarantee promotion, or as required by law), please refer to our Refund Policy or contact our support team. We will review refund requests in line with our policies and applicable laws. Any approved refunds may be issued as credits to your Slidea account or back to the original payment method, at our discretion.
7. Organizational Use and Workspaces
Slidea offers features for organizations (such as businesses, educational institutions, or other groups) that allow multiple Users to collaborate under a centralized Organization account or workspace. If you are using Slidea with an email address provided by your employer, school, or another organization, or if an Organization has invited you to join their Slidea workspace, the following terms apply:
- Administrative Control: An Organization (through its designated administrators) may assume control of and manage the Accounts of Team Members associated with that Organization. For example, if you sign up with an email domain owned by an Organization (like your work or school email), or join an Organization’s team on Slidea, the Organization’s administrator may have the ability to access your Account, view your activity and Content (including presentations), and make changes to your Account (such as adding or removing access or assigning you to different teams or roles). The Organization may also have its own rules or policies in place for how you are expected to use Slidea within their workspace.
- Management of Content and Accounts: Organization administrators can add or remove Team Members from the Organization’s subscription, or seats to other users, and manage or access any Content created under the Organization’s workspace. They may also enforce certain settings or permissions (for example, restricting who can view or present certain slides, or integrating Slidea with the Organization’s other tools). If you are an administrator, you are responsible for ensuring that your Organization’s use of Slidea (including all Team Members’ use) remains in compliance with these Terms and any applicable laws or regulations.
- Team Member Responsibilities: If you are a Team Member under an Organization’s account, you must follow not only these Slidea Terms but also any additional guidelines or policies provided by your Organization regarding use of Slidea. Remember that your Organization may have the right to access or terminate your Slidea Account within their workspace. No expectation of privacy should be assumed for Content you create in an Organization’s workspace—your Organization’s administrators might view or control that Content.
- Leaving an Organization: If you leave the Organization (for example, you change jobs or graduate from a school), or if the Organization removes you from their Slidea workspace, you may lose access to the Content and presentations you created under that Organization’s account. In some cases, your Account (and any associated Content) may be transferred to the Organization or to another team member, at the Organization’s discretion or per its internal policies. Alternatively, your Account might be converted to a personal account (possibly with reduced features if you are not on a paid plan of your own). The handling of Accounts and Content in such cases may depend on agreements between you and the Organization; Slidea is not responsible for any consequences of your departure from an Organization with respect to Content ownership or access.
In summary, Organizations are responsible for managing their users and maintaining compliance with these Terms. If you have questions about how your Content is being handled in an Organization’s workspace, please consult your Organization’s administrator.
8. User Content and Conduct
Ownership of User Content
As a User, you retain ownership of all Content that you create, upload, or post on Slidea. Slidea does not claim any ownership rights in your presentations or other User Content. Subject to the licenses and permissions you grant us below, you are free to use your Content for any purpose outside of Slidea.
By using our Services and uploading or creating Content, you grant Slidea a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify (e.g., for technical processing or formatting purposes), create derivative works from (such as translations or reformatting your content for display), publish, publicly perform, display, and distribute your Content solely for the purposes of operating, improving, and providing the Services. This means, for example, we have your permission to display your slides to your chosen audience, to make backup copies of your files, or to modify file formats as needed for compatibility. We will not use your Content for any marketing or promotional purposes without your explicit consent. This license to your Content continues until you remove the Content from Slidea or terminate your account, in which case we will stop using it (except to the extent we have retained backup copies for legal or operational reasons, or as otherwise permitted by law).
Responsible Use of the Services
You agree to use Slidea in a responsible and respectful manner. When you use the Services, you must ensure that your conduct and your Content comply with the following standards:
- Prohibited Content: You must not post or share any Content on Slidea that is illegal, harmful, or objectionable. This includes, for example, content that is defamatory or fraudulent, that infringes someone else’s intellectual property or privacy rights, that contains obscene, pornographic, or sexually explicit material, or that is hateful, harassing, or discriminatory (such as content that attacks individuals or groups on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, etc.). In general, any content that violates law or rights, or that could be reasonably deemed offensive or inappropriate, should not be uploaded to or distributed via Slidea.
- No Impersonation or Misrepresentation: You must not impersonate any person or entity or falsely state or misrepresent yourself (for example, do not create an account pretending to be someone else, and do not claim false affiliations or credentials in your profile or presentations). You also agree not to use the Services to deceive others (e.g., no phishing, scams, or committing fraud via your presentations).
- Respect Third-Party Rights: Ensure that you have the necessary rights to all Content you upload. This means, for instance, you will not upload materials (text, images, videos, etc.) that you do not have permission to use. If you include third-party copyrighted content in your presentations, you must have the legal right or permission to do so. Also, do not violate others’ privacy rights by sharing personal or sensitive information about them without consent.
- Compliance with Third-Party Terms: If you use any Third-Party Integrations or link Slidea to other services (e.g., importing slides from Google Slides or presenting via Zoom), you must abide by the terms of service of those third-party services as well. For example, Google’s terms will apply to content fetched from Google Slides; you should not use Slidea’s integration features to violate the rules of another platform.
Our Rights Regarding User Content
We do not actively monitor all User Content posted on Slidea, and we are not responsible for what Users post or share. However, we reserve the right (but do not assume the obligation) to review, screen, or moderate User Content. If any Content is found to violate these Terms or applicable law, or otherwise at our discretion appears objectionable or inappropriate, we may remove or disable access to that Content without prior notice. We may also suspend or terminate the account of the User responsible for such Content (see Section 20 on Termination). Slidea is not liable for any loss of data arising from removal of content in violation of these Terms.
You acknowledge that interactive services (like live audience participation, Q&As, comments, etc.) may involve communications from other users. Slidea is not responsible for any user-to-user interactions, and we do not guarantee the truthfulness or accuracy of any Content posted by users.
User Interactions and Waiver
Release: To the extent permitted by law, you release and waive all claims against Slidea (Deckzi Solutions Pvt. Ltd. and its officers, employees, agents, affiliates) that arise from disputes or interactions between you and any other User of the Services. Slidea will not be involved in or liable for any disagreements, transactions, or other dealings between users. For example, if you believe another user’s content is defamatory or their conduct is harassing, we encourage you to report it to us, but any legal claim you wish to pursue will be solely against that user, not against Slidea.
9. Acceptable Use Policy
We require all Users to use Slidea in a manner that is legal, ethical, and respectful. This section outlines some specific prohibitions on how the Services may be used. You agree that you will NOT:
- Post Prohibited Content: Upload, transmit, or share any content that is unlawful, harmful, exploitative, violent, offensive, obscene, defamatory, libelous, or otherwise objectionable. (This includes content that constitutes or encourages criminal offenses, violates any party’s rights, or is otherwise prohibited by Section 8 above.)
- Harass or Harm Others: Use the Services to harass, threaten, bully, or impersonate any person or entity. You may not stalk or maliciously target other individuals, and you must not encourage violence or hatred toward others through the platform.
- Commercially Exploit the Service: License, sublicense, sell, resell, rent, lease, assign, distribute, or otherwise commercially exploit or profit from any part of the Services or content on the Services without our permission. Slidea is for your own personal or internal use—using the platform to provide a paid service to third parties or to compete with Slidea is not allowed.
- Copy or Reproduce Content Improperly: Copy, reproduce, republish, download, or distribute any portion of the Services or content (other than content you own or content that is expressly permitted to be shared) except as allowed by these Terms. For example, you should not scrape our website or database, nor mass-download other users’ presentations. If we do allow you to copy or export certain content (such as your own presentation data), you must retain all copyright and proprietary notices on any copies.
- Reverse Engineer or Tamper with the Service: Modify, adapt, translate, create derivative works of, disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer any part of Slidea’s software or underlying technology. Similarly, you must not attempt to extract or view the source code of the software (except to the extent such actions are expressly permitted by law notwithstanding this limitation). Any attempt to circumvent any technical protections or security measures of Slidea is strictly prohibited.
- Misuse Integrations for Competition: Use the Services (including any Third-Party Integrations) to build or enhance a competing product or service. In other words, you can’t use knowledge or data from Slidea to help create your own competing platform, and you should not use automated means to harvest information from Slidea for competitive purposes.
- Interfere with the Service: Interfere with or disrupt the integrity, security, or performance of Slidea or its systems. This includes not only technical attacks (such as introducing viruses, worms, malware, or any other destructive code) but also actions like flooding the service with requests or otherwise attempting to overload, crash, or spam the system. You also agree not to attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Service, to other users’ accounts, or to any computer systems or networks associated with Slidea (e.g., via hacking, password mining, or any other illegitimate means).
- Use Automated Tools Without Permission: Deploy or use any automated system or software, whether a bot, script, scraper, crawler, or any similar mechanism, to access, scrape, or extract data from the Services, unless you have express written permission from us to do so. Normal use of public APIs we provide (if any) according to their documentation would be allowed, but scraping the website or automating actions in ways that the API or interface does not publicly support is not allowed. (This also includes prohibiting the creation of accounts or presentations by bots without our approval.)
- Multiple Free Accounts Abuse: Create or maintain multiple free accounts in an attempt to circumvent usage limits or other restrictions. For example, one person or organization should not create numerous free accounts to avoid paying for a higher tier. If we detect such activity, we reserve the right to suspend the related accounts.
This list of prohibited activities is not exhaustive. Any use of Slidea that is outside the spirit of these Terms or that abuses the rights of others or the integrity of our platform may result in enforcement action.
Enforcement: Slidea reserves the right to investigate any violation of this Acceptable Use Policy or any misuse of the Services. We may take appropriate action, which can include removing or disabling content, suspending or terminating accounts (with or without notice, per Section 20), and/or reporting you to law enforcement authorities if your use violates law. We also may cooperate with law enforcement or third parties in investigating suspected wrongdoing.
By following these rules and guidelines, you help keep Slidea a safe and productive environment for everyone. If you become aware of any misuse of the Services or any violation of these Terms by another user, please contact us to report it.
10. Restrictions on Use
(This section reiterates certain important restrictions from our Acceptable Use Policy and other parts of these Terms, emphasizing what you cannot do with Slidea.)
You may only use Slidea as expressly permitted by these Terms. Any unauthorized use of the Services is prohibited. Without limiting other restrictions already described, the following are not allowed when using Slidea:
- You must not attempt to bypass or disable any security or technical measures that we have put in place to protect the Services or enforce limitations on use. This includes not trying to create accounts or access data through any means we have not authorized.
- You must not share, sell, or transfer your Account or license to another person without our consent. (Each User should have their own Account; using someone else’s login or giving yours to others is a violation of these Terms.)
- You must not misuse any content that is available on the Site. Aside from your own content, you cannot download, scrape, or aggregate other users’ data or Slidea’s content database for commercial use. Also, framing or mirroring our Site without permission is not allowed.
- You must not use Slidea in violation of any export laws or regulations. (For example, you cannot use our Service to transfer content to restricted countries or individuals as defined by your local export control laws or U.S. export regulations.)
- You shall not use Slidea if you are barred from receiving services like ours under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction – for instance, if there are sanctions or embargoes preventing use.
If you are unsure whether an action or usage is allowed, err on the side of caution and contact us for clarification. Misuse of the Services can result in termination of your license to use Slidea.
(In summary, use Slidea for its intended purpose of creating and sharing presentations, and avoid any exploitative or malicious activities.)
11. Third-Party Integrations
Slidea integrates with various third-party services to enhance your presentation experience. Some examples of supported integrations include: Google Slides, Microsoft PowerPoint, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and potentially others as our platform grows. These integrations are provided to help you seamlessly import content, present remotely, or otherwise use Slidea alongside popular tools.
When you choose to connect Slidea with a third-party service or use an integration feature:
- Consent to Third-Party Terms: You are also agreeing to that third-party provider’s terms of service and privacy policy. For example, if you import slides from Google Slides into Slidea, your use of Google’s services via our integration is subject to Google’s terms. Similarly, joining a Zoom meeting through Slidea’s interface means you must abide by Zoom’s terms. It is your responsibility to review the relevant terms of any third-party service you use in connection with Slidea. We do not control those services and their terms will govern your use of their features.
- Data from Integrations: Slidea will only access and use your data from third-party services as necessary to provide the integration’s functionality. This means we might retrieve certain information (for example, loading your slides from Google Drive, or sending content to a Zoom call) in order to make the integration work for you. We will not use data from third-party accounts for any purpose other than to run the integration or as instructed by you.
- No Unauthorized Sharing: We do not share your Slidea account data with the third-party providers except as needed to operate the integration or as required by law. For instance, if you connect to Microsoft Teams, we won’t give Microsoft access to your Slidea presentations except to the extent needed for the integration to function (and Microsoft’s handling of that data will be governed by their own policies). We value your privacy in using integrations (see Section 13 on Privacy).
Please note that Slidea does not guarantee the continued availability of any particular third-party integration. Third-party providers may change their services or integration policies, which could affect how Slidea’s integrations function. If an integration is significantly changed or discontinued (by us or the third-party), we will do our best to inform you and update our documentation. However, Slidea is not liable for any loss or damage arising from issues with third-party integrations (since those are outside our control). Always ensure that you comply with any usage limits or rules set by the third-party when using their features through Slidea.
12. Third-Party Links and Advertisements
In using Slidea, you may come across links or advertisements that lead to websites or services not operated by us. For example, a user’s presentation might include a hyperlink to an external site, or our website might display ads or references for third-party products.
Please note the following regarding third-party links/ads on Slidea:
- No Endorsement: Links to third-party websites or the display of third-party advertisements are provided solely for your convenience or as part of user-generated content. Slidea’s inclusion of any link or ad does not imply that we endorse or recommend the third-party, their site, or their services.
- Not Our Control: We do not control and are not responsible for the content, offerings, availability, or practices of any third-party websites. This includes their accuracy, legality, appropriateness, or any materials or information found on those sites. If you click a third-party link or engage with a third-party advertisement, be aware that you will be subject to that third party’s terms and privacy policy, not ours. We encourage you to review their terms and policies before interacting with them.
- User Assumes Risk: Any transaction, communication, or engagement you have with third parties found through Slidea is solely between you and the third party. For instance, if you follow a link to purchase a product or if you share personal data with a third-party site, Slidea will not be involved in that transaction or interaction. You agree that Slidea is not liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as a result of such dealings with third parties. Use third-party links at your own risk.
- Ad Content: If advertisements appear on Slidea (aside from user content), they are likely provided by ad networks or partners. While we may attempt to ensure ads are not offensive or malicious, we cannot guarantee any ad’s quality or suitability. If you encounter an advertisement that you believe violates our guidelines or is inappropriate, please let us know.
Please note that Slidea does not guarantee the continued availability of any particular third-party integration. Third-party providers may change their services or integration policies, which could affect how Slidea’s integrations function. If an integration is significantly changed or discontinued (by us or the third-party), we will do our best to inform you and update our documentation. However, Slidea is not liable for any loss or damage arising from issues with third-party integrations (since those are outside our control). Always ensure that you comply with any usage limits or rules set by the third-party when using their features through Slidea.
13. Privacy and Data Protection
Your privacy is very important to us. Our collection, use, storage, and sharing of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy (available on our website), which we urge you to read for a full understanding of how we handle your data. By using Slidea, you consent to the data practices described in that Privacy Policy. Here we highlight a few key points:Your privacy is very important to us. Our collection, use, storage, and sharing of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy (available on our website), which we urge you to read for a full understanding of how we handle your data. By using Slidea, you consent to the data practices described in that Privacy Policy. Here we highlight a few key points:
- Data Collection: Slidea collects certain data from you when you use our Services, such as account information, usage data, and possibly content you upload (including personal information if you include it in your profile or presentations). We use this information to provide and improve the Services, to support you, and to comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
- Data Use: We employ robust security measures to protect your data. This includes encryption of data in transit, secure storage practices, and restricted access procedures. However, no service can guarantee absolute security; by using Slidea, you acknowledge that there is some risk of data breaches inherent in any online service, though we work hard to prevent them.
- Your Rights: Depending on your jurisdiction, you have certain rights regarding your personal data. These may include the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to correct or update it, to request deletion of certain data, and to withdraw consent for certain processing. Slidea will honor applicable data subject rights in accordance with law. For example, if you are an EU user, you have rights under the GDPR; if you are in California, you have rights under the CCPA, etc. Details and how to exercise these rights are described in our Privacy Policy.
- No Unauthorized Sharing: We do not share your personal information with third parties except in the cases disclosed in the Privacy Policy – typically to provide the Services (e.g., using a cloud hosting provider), when you have integrated third-party services (per Section 11), or if required by law (such as in response to valid legal process).
- Data Retention: We retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. If you terminate your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data, except for data we are required or permitted to keep (for example, for legal compliance or legitimate business purposes like resolving disputes or enforcing our agreements).
For more detailed information, please review the Privacy Policy. By continuing to use Slidea, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy and agree to how Slidea handles your information.
14. Cookies and Data Collection
Like most websites and online services, Slidea uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to offer and improve our Services. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help us recognize you and remember your preferences.
- Use of Cookies: We use cookies to store information about your visits and usage of Slidea. For example, cookies help us remember your login session so you don’t have to sign in repeatedly. They also store your preferences (such as language selection) and help us understand which pages or features you use most so we can make Slidea more intuitive. Some cookies are essential for the operation of the site (for instance, to keep you logged in), while others are used for analytics and improvement of our Services. We may also use cookies to personalize content or ads (if any) and to analyze our traffic. By using the Site, you agree to our use of cookies as described in our Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.
- Disabling Cookies: You have the option to disable cookies through your browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, delete existing cookies, or be notified before a cookie is set. Please be aware that if you disable or delete cookies, some features of Slidea may not function properly. For example, you might not be able to stay logged in or certain preferences might not be saved. We recommend leaving cookies enabled for the best user experience, but the choice is yours.
- Other Tracking Technologies: In addition to cookies, we may use web beacons (clear GIFs), local storage, or similar technologies as part of our Services or in emails to track user interactions (such as whether an email was opened). This helps us gauge the effectiveness of our communications and improve our offerings.
- Consent: By continuing to use our Site and Services, you consent to the placement of cookies and other tracking technologies on your device in accordance with our policies. If you are in a jurisdiction that requires express consent for certain cookies (like the EU), we will make reasonable efforts to present you with a cookie consent banner or settings management tool. Your continued use of Slidea after being presented with such notice will signify your consent.
For more information about the types of cookies and tracking technologies we employ, and your choices regarding them, please see our Cookie Policy and the relevant sections of our Privacy Policy. We aim to be transparent about our data collection practices, so please reach out to us if you have any questions about our use of cookies or data collection.
15. Service Availability, Maintenance, and Modifications
We strive to keep Slidea running smoothly and continuously, but we do not guarantee 100% uptime or availability. The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis (see Section 16, Warranties and Disclaimers). Here are some points to note regarding availability and changes to the Service:
- Uptime and Reliability: Our goal is to provide you with a reliable and accessible platform for your presentations. However, unplanned outages or disruptions can occur (due to software bugs, Internet issues, cyber-attacks, etc.), and planned maintenance or updates may sometimes make the Services temporarily unavailable. We will try to perform maintenance during off-peak hours when possible and, if downtime is expected, to give you advance notice (for example, via an in-app notification or email). You acknowledge that occasional downtime is sometimes unavoidable and accept this as part of using online services.
- No Liability for Outages: Slidea shall not be liable for any inconvenience, loss of data, or other damages that may result from Service interruptions, delays, or errors. We will, of course, attempt to minimize disruption, correct any issues, and restore service as quickly as we can, but these Terms (and especially the Limitation of Liability in Section 17) apply to any downtime or technical issues.
- Modifications and Updates: Slidea is an evolving platform, and we reserve the right to add, remove, or modify features and functionalities of the Services at any time. We believe in continuously improving our product, which means we might introduce new tools, change how existing features work, or discontinue features that are outdated or less used. We also may update our software regularly to improve performance or security. We will notify you (through the Services or via email) of any significant changes that could affect how you use Slidea. For example, if we remove a major feature or plan to discontinue a particular integration, we will let you know in advance when feasible. Minor changes or bug fixes may occur without specific notice.
- New Services: Any new features or services that we release will also be subject to these Terms (unless we provide separate terms at the time of introduction). For instance, if Slidea launches a mobile app or an API, your use of those will be covered by these same Terms unless otherwise specified.
- No Guarantee of Backward Compatibility: When we update or modify the Services, we try to maintain backward compatibility (so that your existing presentations and integrations continue to work). However, we can’t guarantee that older content or third-party integrations will function perfectly after changes. We may, for example, deprecate support for older file formats or APIs over time. We encourage you to keep your content and usage up-to-date with the latest versions of Slidea for the best experience.
In summary, we will do our best to keep Slidea up and running and to inform you of major changes, but we maintain the right to update and manage the platform as needed to improve the service or meet legal/technical requirements.
16. Warranties and Disclaimers
Slidea is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, Slidea (Deckzi Solutions Private Limited) disclaims all warranties and conditions, whether express, implied, or statutory, regarding the Services. This includes, but is not limited to:
- No Implied Warranties: We expressly disclaim any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, and non-infringement. This means we do not guarantee that the Services meet your specific needs, that they will perform to any particular standard, or that they won’t violate someone else’s rights.
- No Warranty of Error-Free Operation: We do not warrant that Slidea will always be uninterrupted, timely, or free of errors. While we strive for excellence, we cannot promise that the platform will be without bugs or that it will be available at all times on all devices. Any material or data you download or obtain through Slidea is at your own discretion and risk; you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer system or loss of data that results.
- Not Professional Advice: Any content or information presented by Slidea (such as blog articles, help documentation, or AI-generated presentation suggestions) is for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute professional advice (legal, financial, medical, etc.), and you shouldn’t treat it as such. If you need specific advice, you should consult a professional.
- No Creation of Warranty from Information: No advice or information (whether oral or written) obtained from Slidea or its employees/agents, or through the Services, shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms. You should not rely on any such information as a warranty or guarantee.
No Support Obligation: While we aim to provide helpful support resources (like our Help Center, tutorials, or customer support for paid plans), Slidea has no obligation under these Terms to provide any specific level of support or to continue supporting any software indefinitely. Support services, if provided, are provided as-is and without warranties. (That said, we certainly care about user experience and will try to assist you, but we need to make this disclaimer legally.)
User’s Responsibility: You understand and agree that you use Slidea at your own risk. It is your responsibility to ensure that the Services are appropriate for your needs. For example, if you are using Slidea for a critical presentation or event, you are responsible for having backup materials in case of any issues. We recommend keeping copies of your important Content elsewhere and not relying solely on our Service for irreplaceable data.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. If such laws apply to you, some of the above disclaimers may not apply to the extent prohibited. In such cases, the warranty period will be the minimum required by law.
17. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will Slidea (Deckzi Solutions Private Limited), its affiliates, suppliers, or licensors, or its and their officers, employees, agents be liable for any of the following types of damages arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Services or these Terms:
- Indirect or Consequential Losses: Slidea will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages. This includes, but is not limited to, loss of profits, loss of business or business opportunities, loss of revenue, loss of data, loss of goodwill or reputation, business interruptions, or procurement of substitute services. Even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages, we are not responsible for them. For example, we are not liable if a presentation on Slidea fails during a crucial meeting and that leads to a lost deal or grade, or if a data breach occurs and causes you reputational harm.
- Direct Damages Cap: To the extent we are found liable for any claim, our total cumulative liability to you (for all claims combined) is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the liability (or ₹0 if you have not paid us any amount). For example, if you are on a free plan or you paid $100 in the last year, our liability would be $0 or $100 respectively, at most. This limitation applies whether the claims are based in contract, tort, strict liability, breach of warranty, or any other legal theory.
- Application of Limitations: The limitations of liability in these Terms apply to any damages or losses arising from any cause of action, including but not limited to breach of contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, misrepresentations, or any other legal or equitable theory. They apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.
Exceptions: Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for personal injury, death, fraud, or certain intentional or grossly negligent acts. Also, some do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages. If you are in one of those jurisdictions, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by law. In such cases, Slidea’s liability will be limited to the smallest amount permitted by applicable law.
You acknowledge and agree that the disclaimers and limits on liability set forth in Sections 16 and 17 are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between you and Slidea. Slidea would not be able to provide the Services on an economically feasible basis without such limitations.
18. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Slidea (Deckzi Solutions Private Limited), its parent, affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) that arise out of or relate to any of the following:
- Your Use of the Services: Any use or misuse of Slidea by you or by someone using your account (whether or not with your permission), including any actions taken in your presentations or interactions with other users.
- Your Violation of These Terms: Any breach by you of any provision of these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or any other policy or guideline incorporated by reference. For example, if you violate the Acceptable Use Policy (Section 9) and a third party or governmental body takes action against Slidea as a result, you would be responsible for the costs.
- Your Violation of Any Rights of a Third Party: This includes claims that any Content you uploaded or activity you engaged in via Slidea infringes or violates the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or other rights of any other person or entity. For instance, if you upload copyrighted material without permission and someone sues Slidea for copyright infringement, you agree to cover our costs. It also covers your obligations if you collected personal data of third parties using our platform in violation of privacy laws, etc.
Procedure: Slidea will do its best to promptly notify you of any such claim and may allow you to control the defense and settlement of the claim, provided that (a) Slidea may at any time choose to participate in the defense with counsel of its own choosing (at our expense), and (b) you will not settle any claim in a manner that requires Slidea to admit wrongdoing, pay money, or take (or refrain from taking) any action, without our prior written consent. If you fail to take timely and appropriate action to defend a claim (after we notify you), we reserve the right to assume the defense at your expense and to invoice you for the costs incurred.
This indemnification obligation will survive any termination or expiration of these Terms or your use of the Services. In plain language, if you do something using Slidea that causes harm to us or that causes someone to sue us, you must help defend us and pay for the damages and costs.
19. Force Majeure
Slidea is not liable for delays or failures to perform any obligation under these Terms if such delay or failure is caused by events beyond our reasonable control. This includes, but is not limited to, events such as: natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, hurricanes, floods), fires, epidemics or pandemics, acts of government or regulatory authorities (e.g., war, riots, acts of terrorism, embargoes, strikes or other labor disputes), infrastructure failures (e.g., power outages, telecommunications or Internet disturbances), or any other events that qualify as “force majeure.”
If such an event occurs, our obligations under these Terms will be deemed suspended for the duration of the event. We will make reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact and resume full performance as soon as possible. However, we will not be considered in breach of these Terms to the extent our performance is prevented by a force majeure event.
Please note that nothing in this clause excuses your obligation to pay any fees owed (if applicable) — for example, if a force majeure event disrupts service, we may extend your subscription or provide other remedies, but routine payment obligations are not automatically waived unless we decide so in our discretion or as required by law.
20. Term, Termination, Suspension, and Account Cancellation
Term of Agreement: These Terms are effective from the moment you first accept them (for instance, by creating an Account or using the Services) and will continue in effect until terminated by either you or us as described below. In simpler terms, the Terms apply for as long as you use Slidea.
Termination by You: You have the right to terminate your use of Slidea at any time. You can do this by deleting your Account via your account settings, or by contacting us directly with a request to delete/cancel your account. Upon termination by you:
- We will deactivate or delete your Account and revoke your access to the Services.
- We will delete your Content from our live databases within a reasonable period, and the license you granted us to your Content (Section 8) will terminate (except to the extent we have retained backup copies or are required to retain certain data under applicable law or for legitimate business purposes). Please note: content deletion is permanent — once your Account is deleted, your presentations and data cannot be recovered. Make sure to back up any Content you wish to keep before terminating your account.
- Any fees paid to Slidea are non-refundable (unless otherwise stated in our Refund Policy or required by law). Terminating your account mid-subscription means you will not receive a refund for the unused portion of your subscription period.
Termination or Suspension by Us: Slidea reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account (or restrict your access to parts of the Services) at our discretion, at any time, for reasons including, but not limited to, the following:
- If you breach these Terms or violate any policy or applicable law. (For example, if you engage in prohibited conduct as outlined in Section 9, we may terminate your account immediately.)
- If we determine that your actions may cause harm, loss, or legal liability to Slidea, other users, or third parties. This could include behaviors like hacking attempts, fraudulent activity, harassment of others, or uploading malware.
- Non-payment of fees or repeated chargebacks on your account (for paid subscription users).
- Extended periods of inactivity (especially for free accounts) – while not common, we reserve the right to remove inactive accounts to free up usernames or resources, but we will attempt to notify you in such cases.
- If we discontinue the Services or any portion thereof (although in such case, we would likely terminate all users’ accounts with notice as described below in Section 22 or otherwise).
Notice of Termination: Where reasonable, and if the cause of termination is not egregious, we will try to provide advance notice to you (e.g., via the email associated with your account) to allow you to cure the breach or download your data. However, in cases of severe violations of our Terms, illegal conduct, or where immediate action is necessary to protect Slidea or others, we may suspend or terminate your account without prior notice.
Effect of Termination: Upon termination (by either party):
- Immediate Cessation: Your right to access and use the Services will immediately cease. You must stop using Slidea and should delete any local software or applications you have from Slidea (if applicable).
- Content Deletion: As noted, your Content may be deleted from our systems. We are not liable to you for compensation, reimbursement, or damages in connection with any loss of Content due to account termination. It is your responsibility to maintain your own backup copies of important Content.
- Outstanding Fees: If any fees are owed to Slidea at the time of termination, you will remain liable for those amounts. We may invoice you or charge your payment method for any unpaid fees, and you agree to pay such fees promptly.
- Surviving Provisions: Certain provisions of these Terms will survive termination of the agreement. In general, any section that by its nature is meant to continue will do so. This includes (but is not limited to) Intellectual Property Rights (Section 4), User Content license (Section 8, to the extent necessary for us to retain backup copies as allowed), Warranties and Disclaimers (Section 16), Limitation of Liability (Section 17), Indemnification (Section 18), Governing Law and Dispute Resolution (Section 23), and Miscellaneous/General Provisions (Section 24). All of those terms remain in effect even after your use of Slidea ends.
If you believe your account was suspended or terminated in error, you may contact us to request a review. However, Slidea’s decision in such matters will be final and at our sole discretion.
Terminating the Service: In the unlikely event that we decide to cease offering the Slidea service entirely, we will make an effort to provide you with advance notice and an opportunity to retrieve your Content. We may provide backup tools or other means for you to save your materials. After the service is shut down, you might not have access to any Content stored on the platform.
21. Case Studies and Promotional Use
By using Slidea, you grant us permission to reference your organization as a Slidea customer for marketing and communication purposes, including the creation and distribution of general case studies. These case studies may include:
- Your organization’s name and logo
- Non-confidential images or screenshots of the presentation platform or interface
- Aggregate statistics (e.g., usage rate, engagement metrics, satisfaction scores)
Important:
We will never share or publish the actual content of your presentations or any sensitive, proprietary, or confidential information without your explicit written consent. If you have previously informed us that your account or use is confidential, we will fully respect that.
If you do not wish to be included in case study materials, you may opt out at any time by contacting us at support@slidea.com.
22. Changes to Terms
We may revise or update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our Services, accommodate new features, address legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. When we make material changes to the Terms, we will notify users in a manner appropriate to the significance of the changes, for example:
- Notification: We may send an email to the address associated with your Account, or we may post a prominent notice within the Slidea application or on our website (for instance, a banner or announcement). In some cases, we might do both. Minor changes (such as clarifications or corrections that do not materially affect your rights) may take effect without specific notice beyond posting the updated Terms on our Site, but significant changes will be communicated.
- Review and Acceptance: It’s your responsibility to review any updated Terms. The notification will either contain the new Terms or direct you to them. If you continue to use Slidea after the updated Terms have become effective, you are indicating that you accept and agree to be bound by the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the Services and terminate your account before the new Terms apply.
- Timing: Unless we state otherwise, changes to the Terms are effective at the time they are posted. In some cases, we may specify a later effective date or require that you actively accept the new Terms (for example, via a click-through agreement) before further use of the Services. If you object to any such modifications, your sole recourse is to cease using Slidea.
- Scope of Changes: A revision to these Terms may include, but is not limited to, changes to subscription plans or fees, changes in acceptable use or user conduct rules, modifications of dispute resolution processes, or updates reflecting changes in law. We will not retroactively change any provisions; changes will only apply going forward from the effective date of the updated Terms.
For your convenience, we will typically update the “Last Updated” date at the bottom of this document to reflect when the latest changes were made. We encourage you to check back periodically to ensure you are up-to-date with the current Terms.
By keeping an active Account or using Slidea after revisions become effective, you acknowledge and agree to the updated Terms.
23. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
Governing Law: These Terms (and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Services) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India, without regard to its conflict of law principles. If you are using the Services in another jurisdiction, be advised that you may also have consumer protection rights or other rights under the laws of that jurisdiction, but in any case the governing law for the relationship between you and Slidea is India.
Arbitration Agreement: In the event of any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Slidea arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms (a “Dispute”), both parties shall first attempt to resolve the matter informally. You agree to contact us at our contact address (see Section 25) to discuss any Dispute, and we will do likewise if we have an issue with you. If we are unable to resolve the Dispute informally within a reasonable time, the Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration as described below, and not in court (with the sole exception of the types of matters described under “Exceptions to Arbitration” below).
- Arbitration Procedures: The arbitration will be conducted in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, in the English language, by a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered in accordance with the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (and any amendments thereto), or, if agreed by both parties, another established arbitration procedure or set of rules (for example, rules of a professional arbitration body). The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on both parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any competent court.
- Costs: Each party will bear its own costs in the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees, except as may be provided in the arbitration rules or as ordered by the arbitrator. However, if a party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys’ fees, or if there is a written agreement providing for fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to the prevailing party, consistent with applicable law.
- No Jury Trial; No Class Actions: You and Slidea expressly waive the right to a trial by jury in any lawsuit or court proceeding to the extent one may arise. Additionally, you and Slidea agree that all claims must be brought in each party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator shall not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims or conduct any class or representative arbitration, nor to make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. This means you are waiving any right to a class-action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against us.
- Exceptions to Arbitration: Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief (i.e., a court order to enforce or protect legal rights) in a court of competent jurisdiction for matters related to intellectual property (e.g., trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) or unauthorized access to or use of the Services. Such requests for provisional remedies will not be subject to the arbitration requirement. Additionally, if the arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Chennai, India for resolution of the dispute (except as local law may require otherwise).
- Small Claims: If your claim qualifies for small claims court in a jurisdiction with appropriate authority (e.g., based on the claim amount), you may choose to file your dispute in such small claims court instead of proceeding with arbitration, provided that the claim remains in only that court and on an individual (non-class) basis.
Time Limit: To the extent permitted by law, any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms must be brought within one (1) year after the date on which the basis for the claim first occurred. If not, such a claim is permanently barred. (For example, if you had an issue on Jan 1, 2025, you should initiate the dispute by Jan 1, 2026.)
By agreeing to these Terms, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this dispute resolution provision, and you agree to be bound by it.YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE WAIVING CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
We encourage you to reach out to us first and foremost to resolve any concerns; we genuinely value our users and aim to address issues without legal proceedings whenever possible.
24. Miscellaneous (General Provisions)
This section contains additional legal terms that help govern the relationship between you and Slidea and ensure the interpretation of the agreement is clear.
- Entire Agreement: These Terms (including any policies or agreements expressly incorporated by reference, such as our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and any posted rules or guidelines within the Services) constitute the entire agreement between you and Slidea regarding your use of the Services. They supersede and replace any prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, or communications (written or oral) about the same subject matter. In case of any conflict between these Terms and any other rules or policies, these Terms will generally control, except where we have expressly stated that some other terms (e.g., specific program terms) will override these Terms in certain areas.
- No Waiver: If Slidea fails to enforce any provision of these Terms or delays in doing so, it does not waive our right to enforce that provision later or to enforce any other provision. Similarly, a waiver of a breach of these Terms is not a waiver of any other breach. For example, if you violate the Acceptable Use Policy and we don’t immediately take action, we still have the right to take action later or if you violate again.
- Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. In other words, the invalid part will be cut out or interpreted in a way that is valid, and everything else stays binding.
- Assignment: You may not assign or transfer these Terms (or any of your rights or obligations under these Terms) to anyone else without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms without consent will be null and void. Slidea, however, may assign or transfer these Terms or any of its obligations at our discretion. For example, we might assign the agreement to a successor entity in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or we might delegate certain responsibilities to subcontractors (while remaining responsible for their actions). These Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
- Independent Contractors: Your relationship with Slidea is that of an independent contractor. Nothing in these Terms shall be construed to create any partnership, joint venture, franchise, employer-employee, or agency relationship between you and us. You have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on behalf of Slidea. Both parties acknowledge that they are entering into the agreement as independent entities for their own purposes.
- Third-Party Beneficiaries: These Terms are for the benefit of you and Slidea, and not for the benefit of any third party. Except as expressly provided in these Terms, no other person or company will be a third-party beneficiary to these Terms. For example, even though our affiliates and employees are protected by these Terms (such as through indemnification and limitation of liability), they are not separately parties to the contract.
- Headings and Interpretation: The section headings in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Words like “including” or “for example” (and similar terms) shall be read as “including, without limitation.” These Terms shall not be interpreted against the drafter (you and we both had the opportunity to review them and propose changes, which is what the law calls the “arms-length negotiation” principle). If these Terms are translated into another language and there is a discrepancy between versions, the English language version will prevail unless required otherwise by law.
- Notices: We may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms or other matters, by email, regular mail, postings within the Services, or other legally accepted means. Notices to Slidea must be sent to the address in Section 25 (Contact Information), unless we provide a more specific channel for communication (for instance, notices of copyright infringement should follow the process in our copyright policy). Electronic notices (like email) are considered received 24 hours after they are sent, unless we receive notice that the email did not deliver.
Both you and Slidea agree to act in good faith in fulfilling our obligations and exercising our rights under these Terms. Thank you for taking the time to read these Terms thoroughly.
