AI Executive Assistant — Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern Customer's use of Aura's AI-powered executive assistant services. By subscribing to or using the Services, Customer agrees to be bound by these Terms. Please read them carefully.

1. Privacy and Data

1.1. Data Ownership

Customer retains all ownership rights to Customer's data, including but not limited to emails, calendar entries, contacts, documents, and voice recordings (collectively, "Customer Data"). By using the Services, Customer grants Aura a limited, non-exclusive license to access, process, transmit, and store Customer Data solely for the purpose of providing the Services to Customer.

1.2. Data Storage and Security

All Customer Data is stored on Aura's secure Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud infrastructure. Aura implements industry-standard security measures, including:

  • Role-based access controls restricting access to Customer Data to authorized personnel only;
  • Regular security assessments and monitoring of infrastructure.

1.3. Data Retention

Customer Data will be retained for the duration of Customer's active subscription and for a period of sixty (60) days following the termination of Customer's subscription or the end of Customer's last billing cycle, whichever is later.

Aura may use aggregated, anonymized data that cannot be linked to any individual or organization for internal analytics, service improvement, and product development purposes.

1.6. Third-Party Service Providers

Aura engages select third-party service providers, including cloud infrastructure providers and artificial intelligence model providers, to assist in delivering the Services. All third-party service providers with access to Customer Data are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and implement security measures consistent with these Terms.

1.7. Security Breach Notification

In the event of a security breach resulting in unauthorized access to or disclosure of Customer Data, Aura will notify Customer without undue delay and no later than seventy-two (72) hours after becoming aware of the breach. Notification will include a description of the breach, the types of data affected, and the steps Aura is taking to remediate the breach and prevent future occurrences.

2. Subscription and Payment

2.1. Billing Cycle

The Services are provided on a subscription basis with monthly billing cycles. Subscription fees are charged in advance on the first day of each billing cycle. Customer authorizes Aura to charge the payment method on file for all applicable fees, including subscription fees and any additional charges incurred.

Customer remain responsible for all unpaid fees.

2.5. Pricing Changes

Aura reserves the right to modify subscription pricing upon thirty (30) days' advance written notice to Customer.
