Terms of Service

1. What this service does

• Inside Edges lets you:
  1. Upload your PDF (usually your book file) and an image.
  2. Generate a new PDF with your image placed on the page edges, so that when printed by Amazon KDP, the design shows on the trimmed book edges.
• You do not require an account to use the service: processing requires a purchased credit either through your account, or via a one-time code.

2. Credits and access

• Each edge design (your uploaded image) requires one credit to create.
• You'll receive a download link at the time of processing.
• Once you've created an edge design, you can reuse it to process as many PDFs as you like for 60 days, to allow for edits to your book file.
• If you delete your edge image before the 60 days are up, it cannot be restored. You will need to purchase a new credit.
• Your latest processed PDF is stored for the duration of the 60 days access for the credit, unless you delete it before then.

3. Using the service properly

• You may only use this service for its intended purpose: creating printed edge designs for your own book projects.
• You must own the rights to any content (PDFs and images) you upload.
• Don't upload anything illegal, offensive, or infringing on others' rights.
• We recommend selecting "This file has bleed" when uploading to your chosen printing service.
• We strongly suggest ordering a proof copy of your book before publishing to make sure the edges look the way you want.

4. Refunds and support

• If you're not happy with your purchase, please contact us at support@insidestory.app. Refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis.

5. Liability

• We do our best to provide a reliable service, but we can't guarantee acceptance by printing or distribution services, or that the final print will exactly match your expectations.
• Our total liability to you is limited to the cost of the credit you purchased for the affected edge design. We're not responsible for indirect losses such as lost profits, sales, or opportunities.

6. Ending or suspending accounts

• We may suspend or close your account if you misuse the service or break these terms.
• If we decide to permanently close the service, we will give you at least 90 days' notice via email and on the website. During that notice period, your unused credits will remain valid so you can use them before the service ends. After the service closes, unused credits will no longer be redeemable, and no refunds will be issued provided the full notice period has been given. If we are unable to provide 90 days' notice for reasons outside our control, we will offer a pro-rated refund for any unused credits.

7. Governing law and disputes

• These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand. If there's ever a disagreement, we'll try to resolve it informally first.
