To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the amount you paid to AgentReception AI for the Service during the previous three months before the event giving rise to the claim.

No emergency use
AgentReception AI is not designed for emergency services, urgent medical, legal, or safety needs, or other life-critical communication. Do not rely on the Service for situations that require immediate emergency response from public safety, medical, or crisis professionals.
If your business serves customers who may have urgent needs, you should provide separate emergency instructions outside the Service.
Beta, preview, and unreleased features
Some features may be offered as beta, preview, limited access, or early release. These features may change, break, be removed, or have limited support.
Do not rely on beta or preview features for critical business operations unless you accept that risk.
Changes to the service or terms
We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service from time to time. Plan entitlements, feature availability, and provider requirements may change, and we may provide notice where appropriate.
We may also update these Terms. If we make material changes to the Terms, we may notify you by email, in-product notice, or a prominent notice on our website. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of updated Terms means you accept the revised Terms.

Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be handled in accordance with applicable law and, where permitted, in courts or forums located in that governing jurisdiction unless otherwise required by law.
