Welcome to OnPageSEO.ai, an AI-powered service provided by Houston IT Developers LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website (onpageseo.ai), AI-powered SEO tools, audits, and related services (collectively, the "Service"), available worldwide. By accessing or using the Service, you ("you" or "User") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and Houston IT Developers LLC. We may update these Terms periodically, with the updated version posted here and a revised "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance. For material changes, we'll notify you via email or a website notice where required by law.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. The Service is not intended for individuals under 13 (or 16 in the European Economic Area [EEA] or UK, per GDPR). By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements.
3. Account Registration
- Account Creation: To access premium features, you must create an account with accurate and complete information (e.g., name, email, billing details).

4. Services Provided
OnPageSEO.ai provides AI-powered SEO tools and services, including website analysis, SEO audits, keyword optimization, and reporting, accessible globally. We leverage artificial intelligence to deliver insights and recommendations, but we do not guarantee specific outcomes (e.g., improved search rankings) due to external factors beyond our control.

- Payment Processing: We use Stripe to process payments and collect applicable taxes (e.g., VAT, GST) based on your location. By making a payment, you agree to Stripe's terms of service (available at stripe.com).
- Cancellations: Cancel your subscription anytime via your account settings. No refunds are issued for unused periods unless mandated by law (e.g., 14-day cooling-off period in the EU/UK).
- Price Changes: We may adjust fees with prior notice (e.g., via email or website). Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.
