TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Last updated August 9, 2025

AGREEMENT TO OUR LEGAL TERMS

We are Lumiere123 inc. ("Company," "we," "us," "our").

We operate the website https://inscripedia.com (the "Site"), the mobile application Inscripedia (the "App"), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the "Legal Terms") (collectively, the "Services").

You can contact us by email at support@inscripedia.com.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Lumiere123 inc., concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

We will provide you with prior notice of any scheduled changes to the Services you are using. The modified Legal Terms will become effective upon posting or notifying you by support@inscripedia.com, as stated in the email message. By continuing to use the Services after the effective date of any changes, you agree to be bound by the modified terms.

All users who are minors in the jurisdiction in which they reside (generally under the age of 18) must have the permission of, and be directly supervised by, their parent or guardian to use the Services. If you are a minor, you must have your parent or guardian read and agree to these Legal Terms prior to you using the Services.

We recommend that you print a copy of these Legal Terms for your records.

1. OUR SERVICES

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services. You may not use the Services in a way that would violate the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

2. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

Our intellectual property

Inscripedia owns and controls the platform, code, and infrastructure. Authors retain 100% of the rights to their original works, and Inscripedia does not claim ownership of any books, artworks, writings, or other creative works published by authors on the platform.

By uploading content, you grant Inscripedia a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, reproduce, display, distribute, and promote your works solely for the purpose of operating, improving, and promoting the platform.
