Terms of Service
Effective date: September 7, 2026
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Aflux website at aflux.ai, the Aflux console at console.aflux.ai, and the Aflux API and MCP server (together, the “Service”), operated by Aflux (“Aflux”, “we”, “us”).
By creating an account or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you accept these Terms on behalf of a company or other organization, you confirm that you are authorized to bind it, and “you” means that organization.
How we handle personal information is described separately in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
1. What Aflux Does
Aflux is an AI media buyer for advertising in Telegram channels. Working from the brief you provide, the Service finds channels that match it, contacts the channel owners, negotiates the price and the slot on your behalf, drafts ad copy and creatives, books the placement, and reports on how it performed.
Aflux acts as your agent in arranging these placements. We do not own or sell advertising inventory: the channels are operated by independent third parties, and each placement is ultimately an arrangement between you and the channel owner, arranged and paid for through us. Aflux is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by Telegram.
Nothing goes live without you. No placement is booked and no money leaves your balance until you approve it. You set the total budget and per-channel caps up front, and you can edit copy, creatives and targeting, or cancel a negotiation, at any step before approval.
2. Eligibility and Accounts
The Service is intended for businesses and for people acting on behalf of a business. You must be at least 18 years old to use it. You agree to provide accurate account information and to keep it up to date.
You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for all activity that happens under your account, whether or not you authorized it. Tell us promptly at legal@aflux.ai if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.
3. API and MCP Access
The Service can be driven programmatically through our API and our MCP server, including by AI agents you connect yourself. API keys are secrets — treat them like passwords. You are responsible for every request made with your keys, including requests made by an agent, script, or third-party tool you connect.
You agree not to:
- share, resell, or sublicense API access, or use it on behalf of an undisclosed third party;
- circumvent rate limits, quotas, or other technical restrictions;
- use the Service to build a competing product, or to scrape or bulk-extract data from it;
- contact channel owners at scale outside the Service using data obtained through it.
We may change, version, or deprecate API and MCP endpoints. For changes that break existing integrations, we will give reasonable advance notice where we can.
4. Your Content
“Your Content” means everything you put into the Service or approve for publication: briefs, ad copy, creatives, brand assets, links, product information, and anything else you supply.
You keep ownership of Your Content. You grant Aflux a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, adapt, and publish Your Content solely in order to operate the Service and run the placements you approve — which includes sending it to channel owners and publishing it in their channels.
You represent that you hold all rights necessary to grant that licence, and that Your Content and the product or service it advertises comply with applicable law and with the rules of the platforms the ad runs on.
5. AI-Generated Material
The Service uses AI models to research channels, estimate results, draft copy and creatives, and conduct negotiations on your behalf. AI output can be wrong, incomplete, or unsuitable for your purpose.
Everything the AI produces is presented to you for review, and you decide what runs. Once you approve a placement, its content is yours: you are responsible for its claims, its accuracy, and its compliance with the law. We give no warranty that AI-drafted material is accurate, original, or legally compliant.
Figures shown before approval — reach, price, expected CTR and similar — are estimates, based on data from channel owners and third-party sources. They are not promises of performance.
6. What You May Not Advertise
You may not use the Service to promote or advertise:
- anything illegal where the ad runs, or illegal goods and services generally;
- fraud and financial scams — Ponzi and HYIP schemes, “guaranteed returns” investment claims, fake airdrops, pump-and-dump offers;
- malware, phishing, stolen data, credentials, or hacking services;
- weapons, explosives, or illegal drugs;
- sexual content, adult services, or any content involving minors;
- hate speech, harassment, or incitement to violence;
- impersonation of a person, brand, or public authority — including impersonation of Aflux — or content designed to mislead about who is behind it;
- financial, medical, gambling, or other regulated services where you do not hold the licence the jurisdiction requires.
You also agree not to interfere with the Service itself — no probing, overloading, or reverse-engineering it, and no misrepresenting who you are to channel owners.
We may refuse, pause, or remove a campaign that we reasonably believe breaches this section or exposes us, a channel owner, or a third party to legal risk, and we may suspend or close the account behind it. Where we are able to, we will tell you why.
7. Balance, Payment and Fees
Creating an account and receiving channel matches is free. You pay for the placements you approve, plus the Aflux platform fee, which is shown to you before you approve.
- Prepaid balance. You top up a balance and approved placements draw from it. The amount displayed at the moment you approve is the amount reserved for that placement.
- Payment methods. Top-ups can be made by card, handled by a third-party payment processor, or in cryptocurrency, including TON and Gram.
- Crypto is irreversible. Send only the asset on the network we show you. We cannot recover funds sent to the wrong address or over the wrong network, and confirmation times on the blockchain are outside our control.
- Taxes. Amounts are exclusive of any taxes, duties, or levies, which are your responsibility unless we are required by law to collect them.
Channel owners may change their prices while a negotiation is running. Nothing is charged on a changed price without a fresh approval from you. If a payment is reversed or charged back, we may suspend the account and any campaigns funded by it until the matter is settled.
8. Refunds and Placements That Go Wrong
- Unspent balance. You can ask for the unused part of your balance back at any time. Card top-ups are refunded to the original card; crypto top-ups are refunded in crypto to the address you paid from. We may deduct payment-processing costs we actually incurred.
- Approved placements. Once a placement has been booked with the channel owner, the amount reserved for it is no longer refundable from your balance, because it has been committed to a third party.
- If the channel owner fails to deliver. If a post is not published, is published late or altered, or is deleted before the agreed time, we will pursue the remedy with the channel owner on your behalf and credit whatever we recover back to your balance. We cannot promise to recover it in every case.
Aflux does not guarantee any level of reach, views, clicks, conversions, or return on your spend. Advertising results depend on your product, your creative, and audiences we do not control.
9. Channels and Third-Party Platforms
Channel owners are independent third parties. We negotiate with them for you, but we do not control them and we do not warrant their audience figures, engagement rates, or that the metrics they report are genuine. We check what we reasonably can and pass on what we find.
Telegram and any other platform your ads run on have their own terms and moderation rules. Your ads must comply with them, and a platform may remove a post, a channel, or an account for reasons entirely outside our control.
10. Our Intellectual Property
The Service — its software, models and prompts, interfaces, design, documentation, and the Aflux name and logo — belongs to Aflux or our licensors. These Terms grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable right to use the Service as it is offered, and nothing more. You may not copy, modify, or create derivative works from the Service, and you may not use our trademarks without our written permission.
If you send us feedback or suggestions, you allow us to use them freely and without obligation to you.
11. Availability and Changes to the Service
We work to keep the Service running, but we do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may carry out maintenance, and we may change, add, or discontinue features. If we discontinue something material that you rely on, we will give reasonable notice where circumstances allow.
12. Term, Suspension and Termination
These Terms apply for as long as you use the Service. You may stop at any time and ask us to close your account.
We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if your use exposes us or others to legal or security risk, or if a payment fails or is reversed. When an account closes, placements already booked either run their course or are cancelled where the channel owner allows it, any unspent balance is handled under Section 8, and your personal information is handled under the Privacy Policy.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination — content licences already granted for published ads, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, and governing law — continue to apply.
13. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty arising from course of dealing or trade usage. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, that campaigns will achieve any particular result, or that channel owners will perform as agreed.
14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Aflux will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost business opportunity, lost data, or reputational harm, arising out of or related to the Service — even if we have been advised that such damages are possible.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or related to the Service will not exceed the Aflux platform fees you paid to us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability. Where that is the case, the limitations above apply only to the extent permitted, and nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded.
15. Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Aflux and its personnel from any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of Your Content, the product or service you advertise, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right — including claims brought by channel owners, platforms, or regulators.
16. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or in the Service before they take effect, and the “Effective date” above will show when they were last revised. Continuing to use the Service after that date means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the Service and ask for the unspent part of your balance back under Section 8.
17. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of the Service, are governed by the law of the jurisdiction in which Aflux is established, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
We would much rather sort a problem out directly. Before starting formal proceedings, please write to legal@aflux.ai describing the issue and give us 30 days to resolve it. Nothing in this section removes any right you have under mandatory local law, including any right to bring proceedings where you live.
18. General
- These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Aflux about the Service, and replace any earlier understanding on the same subject.
- If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force and the provision is applied to the fullest extent it lawfully can be.
- Not enforcing a provision on one occasion does not waive our right to enforce it later.
- You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
- Except as described in Section 1, nothing here creates a partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship between us.
- We send legal notices to the email address on your account; you send them to the address in Section 19. These Terms are written in English, and the English text governs.
