Terms of Service

1. Who operates Invitica

Invitica is operated by Theo Cedric Chan, an individual based in the Philippines. In these Terms, "Invitica", "we", and "us" mean that person operating this service, and "you" means the person who holds a creator account.

Postal address: Tuyan, Naga City, Cebu, Philippines. Email for support, legal notices, and privacy requests: [email protected]. Email is the fastest way to reach us and the address we use for formal notice.

2. Accepting these Terms

You accept these Terms by ticking the acceptance box when you create an account, or at the acceptance checkpoint if your account has no still-valid acceptance. The checkpoint sits in front of your creator workspace.

When you accept, Invitica records your user ID, the exact version of these Terms, the exact version of the Privacy Notice shown alongside them, and the time the acceptance was stored. It does not record your IP address or your browser's user-agent string for this purpose.

Version 1.1 corrects the public-status and account-deletion descriptions. If you accepted version 1.0, we will notify you by email and you do not need to accept version 1.1 again. If a future change requires a new agreement or a specific consent, the notice will say so and Invitica will ask before that change applies to you.

3. Who may create an account

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live if that age is higher. Invitica is not designed for children to operate.

You may use Invitica on behalf of another host — a couple whose wedding you are planning, a parent whose child's celebration you are organizing, a client who has engaged you. If you do, you confirm that you have their authority to act for them and to handle the information you enter about them and their guests. You remain the account holder and remain responsible under these Terms.

4. Your account

Give accurate account information, keep your sign-in credentials secure, and tell us promptly at the address above if you think someone else has reached your account.

Invitica supports email and password sign-in and optional Google sign-in. If you sign in with Google, Google's own terms and privacy practices also apply to that step. You are responsible for what happens through your account, including what anyone you allow to use it does.

Guests do not need an account. Do not create an Invitica account in another person's name.

5. What Invitica does

Invitica lets you customize an invitation from a curated template, publish it as a versioned guest website at an unlisted address, manage the parties you invite, and read their replies. Guests open an invitation without an account, and a personally invited party may reply before the deadline you set.

Invitica is publicly available and under active development. Features may be added, changed, or withdrawn. Anything described in our public materials as planned — production payments, a template marketplace, custom domains, general music publishing — is not part of the service you are agreeing to today.

6. Your content and the permission you give Invitica

You keep ownership of everything you put into Invitica: your event details, your words, your photographs, your guest list. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership to us.

To run the service, you give Invitica a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free permission to host, store, validate, resize, reproduce, transmit, and display your content — only as needed to create, preview, publish, deliver, secure, back up, and support your invitation, and only for as long as we hold it under the Privacy Notice. We do not use your content to advertise, to promote Invitica publicly, or to train any model.

This permission ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies that remain in provider backups for a limited period and for published files that other invitations share, which the Privacy Notice explains.

7. Guest information: your role and ours

You decide who is invited, what information about them you enter, and how long their invitation stays published. Under the Data Privacy Act, that makes you the personal information controller for the guest information you put into Invitica. Invitica stores, processes, and delivers that information on your instructions, as your personal information processor.

By entering guest information you confirm that you have a lawful basis to collect and share it — usually because you are inviting people you know to your own event — and that you will tell them about their information if they ask.

Invitica will process guest information only to provide the service to you and to keep it secure, will not use it for its own marketing, will keep it confidential, will use the providers listed in the Privacy Notice to hold and deliver it, will help you respond if a guest asks about their information, and will delete it when you delete the invitation or your account. If you ask us to do something with guest information that we believe would be unlawful, we may refuse.

Invitica is the personal information controller in its own right for your creator account, for authentication, for security and abuse prevention, and for the aggregate counts described in the Privacy Notice.

8. Publishing and sharing

A published invitation is an immutable snapshot. Publishing again replaces what guests see at the same shared address, while the earlier snapshot may remain in storage for rollback and recovery.

Invitation links are unlisted and hard to guess, and published pages ask search engines not to index them. That is not the same as confidential. Anyone who receives a working link can open it, forward it, screenshot it, or post it. Do not put information in an invitation that would harm someone if it travelled further than you intended.

Check names, dates, venues, reply deadlines, photographs, and personalized wording before you share. Once a link is out, you cannot recall what has already been seen.

9. Guests and replies

You may add guest names, group them into parties, and create a personalized link for each party. A personally invited party may submit and revise a bounded attendance reply — attending or not, a party count within the capacity you set, and an optional short message — until the reply deadline passes. A general link is view-only.

Invitica does not track whether a guest opened an invitation. Delivery status reflects what you recorded and what you did, not what the guest did.

10. Invi, the AI assistant

Invi is an optional assistant available only inside your signed-in creator account. It never appears on a published invitation and guests never interact with it. It answers questions about Invitica, drafts invitation wording, and turns a pasted guest list into rows you can edit.

Invi proposes; it never saves. Nothing it produces reaches your invitation, your guest list, or a published page until you review it and apply it yourself. Its output can be wrong, incomplete, or oddly worded — check it the way you would check a draft written by anyone else. You remain responsible for what you publish.

Your messages, and the invitation or guest list you ask about, are sent to our AI provider to produce an answer. The Privacy Notice names that provider and explains what is sent. Do not paste names, contact details, photographs, or private information you do not have permission to use.

Use is capped at 20 messages per account per day. We may change the cap, change the underlying model, or withdraw the feature.

11. Acceptable use

Use Invitica for real invitations to real events you are authorized to organize. The following are not allowed:

• Uploading unlawful, abusive, deceptive, infringing, or privacy-invasive content.
• Uploading malware, scripts, arbitrary HTML, unrestricted CSS, or anything meant to interfere with Invitica or a provider we use.
• Bypassing access controls, rate limits, link safeguards, or another creator's workspace, or testing them without our written permission.
• Spam, impersonation, fraud, harassment, or running an event you have no authority to run.
• Reselling, sublicensing, or systematically copying Invitica's templates, renderer designs, or platform materials.
• Automated scraping or bulk downloading of any part of the service.

12. Content removal, suspension, and appeal

We may remove content, take an invitation offline, or suspend an account when we reasonably believe it breaks these Terms, breaks the law, endangers guests or other creators, or threatens the service or a provider we depend on. Where a risk is urgent we may act first.

We will tell you what we removed or suspended and why, by email, unless the law prevents us. You may appeal by replying to that email or writing to [email protected]. We will look at an appeal ourselves and restore what should not have been removed. We do not promise a fixed response time, and we do promise to answer.

You may also report content that concerns you at the same address.

13. Availability and changes to the service

Invitica is provided as it is, without a service-level agreement. It may be interrupted for maintenance, may change, and may have faults. Keep your event's critical information somewhere other than your invitation, and give guests another way to reach you.

We may change or discontinue features. If we discontinue something you rely on, we will give you reasonable notice by email where we can.

14. Fees and paid publication

Invitica charges nothing today. Every template and every publication in the current public service is free, and no payment method is collected. This section sets out the terms that will apply when paid publication becomes available; until then, no amount is payable.

When paid publication launches, a price will be shown in Philippine pesos before you pay, and payment will buy a licence to publish one event rather than ownership of a template. Any taxes required by law will be shown before you pay. We will publish the seller information the law then requires of us.

A publication licence is digital content delivered as soon as your invitation is published. Because of that, a publication fee is not refundable once the invitation has been published. Before you publish, you may cancel and receive a full refund. If we fail to deliver what you paid for — your published invitation never becomes reachable, or we take it down for a reason that is not your fault — you may choose a full refund or a replacement publication.

Nothing in this section removes rights the Consumer Act of the Philippines or other Philippine law gives you and that cannot be waived.

If a payment is reversed or charged back, we may suspend the affected publication until it is resolved.

15. Ending your use of Invitica

You may delete an invitation at any time. Deleting a published invitation takes its guest link down first, so a shared link stops working, and then removes its records. You may stop using Invitica at any time by deleting your account in Settings.

Deleting your account takes two deliberate steps: you confirm in Settings, then follow a single-use link we email you, which expires after 30 minutes and only works while you are still signed in to that same account. When confirmation succeeds, the deletion cannot be cancelled. Invitica immediately attempts to take every published invitation offline and signs the account out. A background process repeats any failed link removal and then removes the remaining account records and stored files. Provider delays or retries can extend completion. There is no grace period and no way for us to restore the account after the purge finishes.

We may close an account that has broken these Terms, following section 12. If we do, we will take your published invitations offline.

16. Invitica's own materials

Invitica's software, name, brand, curated templates, renderer designs, illustrations, and written materials belong to us or our licensors. These Terms give you permission to use the service, not a licence to reuse those materials elsewhere.

Published invitations carry a small "Powered by Invitica" attribution in the footer, which links to our public site and, once effective, to this Privacy Notice.

17. Warranties and disclaimers

Invitica is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the extent Philippine law allows, we do not give warranties that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose, and we do not warrant that a guest will open, read, or reply to an invitation.

Philippine law gives consumers rights that cannot be excluded. Nothing here excludes those rights, and nothing here excludes liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence.

18. Limitation of liability

To the extent Philippine law allows, Invitica's total liability to you for all claims connected to the service is limited to the greater of the amounts you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or PHP 5,000.

To the same extent, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, lost profits or opportunities, loss of goodwill, or the cost of substitute arrangements, and we are not liable for the consequences of a guest forwarding a link, of information you chose to put into an invitation, or of an event outcome.

The limits in this section do not apply to fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or liability that Philippine law does not permit us to limit.

19. Your responsibility for what you upload

You will cover Invitica against claims, losses, and reasonable costs arising from the content you upload, the guest information you enter, your use of the service in breach of these Terms, and any claim that you had no authority or lawful basis for information you entered about another person.

We will tell you promptly about any such claim, will not settle it without asking you, and will let you take the lead in defending it.

20. Governing law and where disputes are heard

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines.

Talk to us first — most problems are quicker to fix at [email protected] than anywhere else. If a dispute cannot be resolved that way, it will be heard by the competent courts of Cebu City, Philippines, and you and Invitica agree to that venue, without preventing either of us from seeking urgent relief elsewhere where the law allows.

21. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. Every version carries a version number and an effective date, and the current version is always published at this address.

We will email active creators at their verified account address about a material change and say plainly what changed. Unless the notice says a fresh acceptance is required, the updated Terms apply from their effective date without another checkbox. If you do not agree, stop using Invitica and delete your account. When a future change requires a new agreement or a specific consent, we will ask before that change applies to you.

22. General

If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest still applies. If we do not enforce something immediately, we do not lose the right to enforce it later.

You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our written consent. We may transfer ours if Invitica is reorganized, registered as a business, or acquired, and we will tell you if that happens.

Neither of us is responsible for a failure caused by something genuinely outside our control, such as a natural disaster, a nationwide network failure, or the failure of a provider we depend on.

These Terms and the Privacy Notice are the whole agreement between you and Invitica about the service, and replace any earlier draft or discussion.
