Cosmos Darkroom

Email: sebastien.voerman@gmail.com

2. Hosting

This website and the Service are hosted on technical infrastructure operated by the Publisher, located in France.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". No professional-grade availability guarantee (SLA) is offered. The Publisher makes best efforts to keep the Service accessible but cannot be held liable for interruptions, regardless of cause or duration.

The Publisher also uses third-party services (NextAuth for authentication, Stripe for payment) and cannot be held liable for any failures of these providers.

3. Nature of the Service

Cosmos Darkroom is a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform for AI-powered astrophotography image processing. It is in no way a data hosting service.

Use of the Service is subject to the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy.

4. Intellectual Property

All content on this site (texts, images, logos, interface, source code, algorithms, AI models) is protected by copyright and intellectual property law. Any reproduction, representation, or distribution, even partial, requires prior written authorization from the Publisher.

The name "Cosmos Darkroom" and associated logo are registered trademarks or pending registration. Any unauthorized use of these trademarks is prohibited.

5. Liability

The Publisher strives to provide accurate information on this site. However, it cannot be held responsible for omissions, inaccuracies, and deficiencies in updates, whether caused by itself or by third-party partners.

The Publisher shall in no event be held liable for any direct or indirect damage resulting from the use of this site or the Service, including but not limited to:

  • Loss of data or images
  • Temporary or permanent Service unavailability
  • Results of automatic image processing
  • Inability to access the Service due to technical failures
  • Damages resulting from the use of third-party services (NextAuth, Stripe)

6. SaaS Service — Warranty Limitation

Cosmos Darkroom is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranty of any kind, express or implied.

As a SaaS service, we depend on many external factors:

  • Availability of servers, GPUs, and cloud infrastructure
  • Quality of the user's internet connection
  • Third-party services (NextAuth, Stripe, internet network)

The Publisher expressly excludes all warranties relating to:

  • Continuous and uninterrupted Service availability
  • Absence of bugs, errors, or security vulnerabilities
  • Compatibility with all file formats and browsers
  • Achieving specific image processing results
  • Preservation, permanence, or integrity of stored data and images

In case of failure or interruption, the Publisher will make best efforts to restore the Service, but no compensation, refund, or subscription extension shall be due.

7. Data Storage — Disclaimer

The Publisher does not operate as a data hosting provider under applicable law. Temporary storage of images and processing results is an ancillary service provided without guarantee.

The user is solely responsible for backing up their original files and processing results. The Publisher disclaims all liability for loss, corruption, or deletion of data.

8. Liability Cap

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Publisher's total aggregate liability, for all causes combined, shall be limited to the amount of the monthly subscription paid by the user at the time of the triggering event.

9. Force Majeure

The Publisher shall not be held liable for failure to perform its obligations due to force majeure, including but not limited to: server failure, power outage, network failure, hardware failure, natural disaster, pandemic, government order, cyberattack, third-party provider failure, scheduled or emergency maintenance.

10. Hyperlinks

This site may contain links to other websites. The Publisher is not responsible for the content, availability, or privacy practices of these external sites.
