We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of any changes.

2. Description of Service

Creole Translator provides free online translation services between English, Creole, and Haitian Creole languages. Our services include text translation, text-to-speech functionality, translation history, and educational blog content. The Service is provided "as is" and "as available."

3. Use of the Service

You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes. You may not:

4. Translation Accuracy

While we strive to provide accurate translations, we cannot guarantee that all translations will be perfect or error-free. Machine translation has inherent limitations, particularly with idiomatic expressions, cultural nuances, and specialized terminology. Our translations should not be relied upon as the sole source for critical communications, legal documents, medical information, or other content where accuracy is essential. We recommend having important translations reviewed by a qualified human translator.

In no event shall our total liability exceed the amount you paid to us (if any) for use of the Service.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
