6. CONTENT YOU UPLOAD
-----------------------------------------------------------------

You retain ownership of the materials you upload. You grant Kosmiq a limited license
to process them solely to create your own practice. You represent that you have the
right to upload each item, and that doing so does not violate anyone's copyright or
your institution's rules — for example, some schools prohibit sharing exams. Do not
upload materials you are not permitted to use. We process your materials for you only
and do not share them with other users. While we do not use the uploaded material elsewhere or share and/or sell it to any third-party company that does not help us provide content for you, you are responsible for the content you upload. We suggest not sharing a copyrighted material.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
7. AI-GENERATED CONTENT
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Lessons, practice questions, explanations, and chat responses are generated by AI and
are provided "as is." They may be incomplete or inaccurate and are not a substitute
for your official course materials or your instructor. See our Disclaimer for more
detail and what you could do of you notice consistent incorrect responses from our AI.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
8. NO UNIVERSITY AFFILIATION
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Kosmiq is an independent product. References to universities, courses, course codes,
or professors are used only to personalize your practice and do not imply any
affiliation with, endorsement by, or connection to any institution, faculty member, or
examination body, nor that generated content reflects any actual exam.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
9. NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Kosmiq does not guarantee any grade, score, exam result, or academic outcome. However, correct use of it will take you closer to and help achieve your desired result. More on this is on our disclaimer page.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
10. PAYMENTS AND BILLING
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Paid Astronomer features, such as the Semester Pass , are billed through
PayPal. Pricing and what is included are shown at the time of purchase. All purchases are subscription based unless stated otherwise. You may choose to cancel the subscription anytime through the said app. All payments are non-refundable except as described in our Refund Policy (part of our Privacy Policy) or as required by applicable law. We reserve the right to change our pricing at any time, with reasonable notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
