These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Strive, an AI-driven learning platform operated by MB Kūrybinis kodas, a small partnership registered in the Republic of Lithuania ("we", "Strive"). By creating an account or using the service you accept these Terms.
You must be at least 16 years old and have legal capacity to enter into a contract under the law of your country of residence. If you use the service on behalf of an organisation you represent that you have authority to bind it; in that case "you" means both you and that organisation.
Strive generates study material — lessons, quizzes, recall cards, illustrations and optional narration — using third-party AI models (Anthropic, OpenAI and others), from the goal you describe and from any documents or links you choose to give us.
What we supply is generated study material, not verified information. It is produced automatically. No person reviews it before you see it. It may be incorrect, incomplete, out of date, biased or misleading even when it reads as authoritative. Treat it the way you would treat notes written by a capable but unsupervised study partner: useful for learning, and worth checking before you rely on it.
Strive is not professional advice (medical, legal, financial, tax, safety, security, engineering, mental-health or otherwise). It is not a substitute for the original sources it is built from. It is not an accreditation, certification, qualification or formal credential. Where a lesson is built from material you gave us, we do not verify that material either. We teach from it.
No outcome guarantee. We do not promise any particular learning, retention, exam, certification, employment, financial or performance outcome. Your results depend on your effort, your prior knowledge, the topic, and the output the models happen to produce.
Course content, lessons, quizzes, recall cards, chat replies, illustrations and narration on Strive are generated by artificial intelligence. When you use a lesson mentor or a course mentor, you are interacting with an AI system, not a person. We make this disclosure under Article 50 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the AI Act).
We are working towards marking AI-generated output in a machine-readable form, so that it can be recognised as artificially generated. That obligation (Article 50(2) of the AI Act) applies to systems already on the market from 2 December 2026, under Article 111(4) as amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744. Until the marking is in place, treat everything Strive produces as AI-generated, because it is.
You provide accurate registration details and keep your credentials secret. You are responsible for everything that happens under your account. Notify us immediately at admin@strive-learning.com if you suspect unauthorised access.
You will not: (a) use the service for any unlawful, infringing, harassing, deceptive or harmful purpose; (b) submit content that is illegal, infringes intellectual-property rights, contains malware or violates third-party rights or privacy; (c) attempt to bypass rate limits, allowance gates, authentication, content filters or any other technical control; (d) probe, scan, scrape, reverse-engineer or interfere with the service or its underlying infrastructure; (e) use the service or its outputs to train another AI model, or resell or republish Strive output as a product or service of your own (using it in your own work or inside your organisation is fine — see section 6); (f) impersonate another person, share your account or sell access to it; (g) submit prompts or content designed to elicit illegal, defamatory, sexually-explicit, violent or otherwise harmful AI output; (h) use AI output in any context where its incorrectness, bias or hallucination could foreseeably cause harm to a person, an organisation or property without independent verification by a qualified human; (i) supply credentials, cookies, session tokens, subscriber links, archive or cache mirrors, or proxy services so that we fetch material that sits behind a paywall, a login or any other access control; (j) submit links in bulk, by automated means, or in a systematic pattern intended to harvest a site rather than to build a course; or (k) submit documents or links containing other people's special-category personal data within the meaning of Article 9 GDPR.
We may suspend or restrict your access to the service, or close your account, if: (a) you materially breach these Terms, including the acceptable-use rules above and the warranties in section 6.1; (b) the law, a court or a regulator requires it; (c) it is necessary to protect the service, other users or someone else from a real risk of harm; (d) your payment fails and stays unpaid after we have asked you to fix it; or (e) you repeatedly submit material you have no right to submit.
Except where the material is unlawful, someone is at risk, or the law requires us to act at once, we will tell you first and give you a reasonable chance to put it right. Whenever we restrict or close an account we will tell you what we did, why, whether the decision was automated, and how to challenge it. Write to admin@strive-learning.com and a person will look at it again.
If we close your account for a reason other than something you did, section 13 says what happens to anything you have paid for.
Some lessons include code blocks that you may run, or copy and run elsewhere. Running one sends your code off your device: it goes from your browser to our servers, and from there to Judge0, a third-party execution sandbox we reach through RapidAPI, which runs it and returns the output. It is not executed in your browser. Do not put credentials, personal data or anything confidential into a code block you run. Our Privacy Policy § 3 lists both providers.
You are responsible for any code you write, paste, run or deploy in connection with Strive — including AI-generated code. We do not warrant that such code is correct, secure, performant, free of vulnerabilities or fit for any purpose. Subject to section 10.1, we are not liable for loss, damage, data corruption, security breach, downtime or other harm caused by executing code on or via the platform, or elsewhere as a consequence of using Strive output.
Paid features are purchased through subscription plans or one-off allowance top-ups. Prices, monthly grants and top-up amounts are shown at checkout and may be changed for future billing cycles with prior notice. Payments are processed by Stripe.
Your allowance is a non-monetary right to use AI-generated content within Strive. It is not money, not redeemable for cash and not transferable. Monthly allowance granted by a subscription plan resets at the start of each billing cycle and any unused monthly allowance does not roll over. Top-up allowance persists while your account is active.
Subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period until you cancel from Profile → Billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period; the service remains available until then.
If you are a consumer in the EU or EEA, you have 14 days from entering into a contract with us to withdraw from it, without giving a reason.
Both of the things we sell — a subscription and a one-off allowance top-up — are digital services supplied continuously through Strive. The 14-day right applies to both, and we do not ask you to give it up.
If you withdraw inside the 14 days, you pay a proportionate amount for the part of the period during which the service was available to you, and we refund the rest. Where the law says you owe nothing, you pay nothing.
To withdraw, email admin@strive-learning.com. A clear statement is enough, and you may use the model withdrawal form if you prefer. We refund to your original payment method within 14 days of being told.
Beyond the withdrawal right above, we refund in these cases:
Where a refund is due we pay it to your original payment method. Outside these cases, and outside anything else Lithuanian law requires, billing is non-refundable.
You keep all rights in what you give us — your goals, notes, chat messages, attachments, the documents you upload and the links you submit. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable licence to host, fetch, store, parse, analyse, index and transmit that material, and to generate content from it, solely in order to provide, operate, secure, troubleshoot and support the service for you — including by sending it to the AI providers listed in our Privacy Policy. We do not use your material to train AI models, and the AI providers we use are contractually prohibited from training on it. This licence ends when you delete the material or your account, apart from copies held in backups, which expire on our normal backup cycle.
What you may do with what Strive generates for you. Use it for your own learning and your own work — including the work you do for the organisation you use Strive on behalf of. What you may not do is resell it, republish it as a product or service of your own, or use it to train another AI model; that is what section 4(e) prohibits, and section 11 sets out who carries the risk if you distribute it anyway. Before you reuse or redistribute anything Strive generated, you are responsible for confirming that it does not infringe anyone's rights and does not break any law.
We may create and use aggregated, statistical or de-identified data derived from your use of the service for any lawful purpose, including service improvement, analytics, research and benchmarking. Such data is not personal data.
When you build a course from your own material, you are asking us to process material we know nothing about. So:
You warrant that, for every file you upload and every link you submit: you own it, or you are otherwise entitled to use it for this purpose; giving it to us does not breach anyone's intellectual-property, confidentiality or privacy rights, and does not breach an agreement you are personally bound by — for example a subscription, licence or employment term that covers the material; and it does not contain special-category personal data about other people — health, biometric, genetic, sexual, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade-union membership — within the meaning of Article 9 GDPR.
We do not check any of that. We do not verify who owns your material, whether you are licensed to use it, whether it is accurate, or whether it is what it appears to be. We run automated safety checks and we may refuse material, but that is a safety filter, not a rights clearance.
Do not give us: pirated or unlawfully obtained books, courses or articles; material behind a paywall or a login that you are not entitled to share with us; other people's confidential, medical, HR or personnel files; or anything unlawful where you are.
Deleting a source does not delete the course. A course we generated from a document or a link is your course, and it survives deletion of the source it came from. Deleting your account deletes both.
When you submit a link, we fetch that page — you do not — and we use a third party to do the fetching. We do not open the address from our own servers. We pass it to Jina Reader, an external reading service, which requests the page once and returns its main text to us; our Privacy Policy § 1.1 explains why it works that way. We keep a copy of that text so that we can build lessons from it. That copy is used only to generate and support your course. It is never shown back to you as an article, never shared with other users and never published.
We only fetch pages that are openly available. We do not log in, we do not pay, and we do not get around paywalls, registration walls or any other access control. You must not ask us to — see section 4(i). If a page is not openly reachable, the link simply fails.
We honour two machine-readable opt-outs. Before fetching, our servers read the site's
/robots.txt (matched against our product token StriveFetch) and its
/.well-known/tdmrep.json text-and-data-mining reservation. If either reserves the
page, we refuse the link, mark it as refused in the course builder, and show you the reason.
Those two are the signals we read: we do not currently read the per-response
Content-Signal header, and we do not parse a reservation written in prose in a site's
terms. We fetch each page once, on your request. We do not crawl sites, follow links, or
re-fetch on a schedule.
We keep the copy for a limited time. We delete the fetched text 90 days after your course is built, or as soon as you delete the document, the course or your account, whichever comes first. Where the page comes from a news or press site we shorten that to 30 days — we match against a hand-maintained list of publisher domains, which covers the large publishers but is not exhaustive, so a news site we have not listed gets the ordinary 90 days rather than the shorter window. After the deletion runs we keep only the link, when we fetched it, a fingerprint of the text, and the specific excerpts your lessons draw on.
We show you where a lesson came from. Lessons grounded in the material you gave us are marked as such in the product, and lessons the model wrote around them are marked as AI-supplemented. Strive teaches from a source; it is not a substitute for reading it.
If you believe material on Strive infringes your rights, email admin@strive-learning.com with: what the material is and where it is; what right you hold and why you hold it; your contact details; and a statement that your notice is accurate and made in good faith. We aim to acknowledge within 2 working days and to act within 7 days, faster where the material is plainly unlawful. Where we restrict or remove anything, we tell the affected user what we did and why, as the Digital Services Act requires.
Publishers and site owners. If you do not want Strive to fetch pages from your site,
the fastest and most reliable route is a machine-readable reservation. Before every fetch —
for links a learner submits and for pages our AI agents look up — we read your
/robots.txt (matched against our product token StriveFetch, per RFC 9309) and your
/.well-known/tdmrep.json (W3C TDM Reservation Protocol), and we refuse any page either
of them reserves. We do not currently read the Content-Signal response header, and we do
not parse a reservation written in prose in your terms — so if your reservation is expressed
some other way, email the address above with your domain and we will stop fetching from it
and delete the copies we hold, within 7 days. You do not need to give a reason.
Repeat infringers. Accounts that repeatedly submit material they have no right to submit are suspended and then closed.
The Strive platform — software, design, brand, copy and AI prompts — is owned by us and protected by copyright and other laws. Nothing in these Terms grants you any rights to it beyond using the service as intended.
Features labelled beta, experimental, preview or alpha are still being developed. They may be incomplete, may behave unpredictably, may change substantially, and may be withdrawn. We label them so that you know what you are choosing to use.
Where a beta feature is part of a paid plan, your statutory rights in respect of it are unaffected. The label describes what the feature is; it does not remove any right you have under Directive (EU) 2019/770 or Lithuanian law.
If you are a consumer. We supply the service as described in section 2 and in the plan you bought. Your statutory rights apply in full and nothing in these Terms affects them — in particular your rights, for paid digital content and digital services, to have a lack of conformity put right, to a proportionate reduction in price, or to terminate, under Directive (EU) 2019/770 as transposed into Lithuanian law. Any part of these Terms that would reduce those rights does not apply to you.
Beyond that we give no warranty. In particular we do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, that generated content will be accurate or complete, or that any particular feature will stay available.
If you are not a consumer (you use Strive for purposes relating to your trade, business, craft or profession, or on behalf of an organisation), the service is provided "as is" and "as available", and all warranties, conditions and terms implied by statute or otherwise are excluded to the fullest extent the law allows.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for: (a) deprivation of life, or impairment of your health; (b) damage caused to your property; (c) non-pecuniary damage; (d) our intentional fault or gross negligence; (e) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (f) your statutory rights as a consumer, including your rights in respect of a lack of conformity under Directive (EU) 2019/770 as transposed into Lithuanian law; or (g) any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, in particular under Article 6.252 of the Civil Code of the Republic of Lithuania. This section applies whether the liability would otherwise be limited in amount or excluded altogether.
As Article 6.258(4) of the Civil Code of the Republic of Lithuania provides, an enterprise (a business) that has failed to perform an obligation is liable only for those losses which it foresaw, or could reasonably have foreseen, at the time the contract was concluded as a likely consequence of the non-performance.
Subject always to section 10.1, and only where the loss is caused by ordinary negligence, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of goodwill or loss of business opportunity.
Subject always to sections 10.1 and 12, and only where the loss is caused by ordinary negligence, our total liability to you — added together across all claims arising in any 12-month period — is limited to €100, or to the total fees you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim if that is higher. We have set a fixed minimum figure rather than a share of fees, so that the limit means something even if you have never paid us anything, and we think €100 is a proportionate share of the risk for a service at this price.
If you are a consumer. You are responsible for the material you give us and for what you do with what Strive generates for you. If you break the warranties in section 6.1 and that causes us loss, ordinary Lithuanian law applies: we may claim what we can actually prove we lost, and we may suspend or close your account under section 4. Nothing here makes you responsible beyond that, and nothing here moves onto you a burden of proof that the law places on us.
If you are not a consumer (you use Strive for business purposes or on behalf of an organisation), you will defend and indemnify us against any third-party claim, and any damages, liabilities and reasonable legal costs, arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the service, the material you submit, or your distribution or commercial use of AI output generated for you.
If you are a consumer in the EU or EEA, mandatory consumer-protection law in Lithuania and in your country of residence applies to this contract, and nothing in these Terms reduces it. In particular:
If something goes wrong, contact us first at admin@strive-learning.com. If we cannot resolve it, section 16 explains your options.
You can close your account at any time from Profile → Account. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone: it removes your courses, lessons, chats, recall progress, gamification, uploaded documents, fetched link content, allowance ledger and AI inputs. A short list of things that deliberately survive deletion — an abuse-prevention hash of your email address, your recorded cookie choice, any legally-preserved content flag, and the transaction records Stripe holds for accounting purposes — is set out in section 5.1 of the Privacy Policy.
If you close your account, or we close it because you broke these Terms, any remaining monthly allowance and any remaining top-up allowance end and are not refunded. Monthly allowance is part of what your subscription buys for that month; it does not roll over. This does not affect any refund due to you under section 5.1 (your 14-day right of withdrawal), section 5.2 (refunds) or section 15 (changes).
If we close your account for any other reason, or we stop offering the service, or we stop offering a feature you paid for, that is different. We will refund the unused part of what you have paid for and not received — a pro-rata refund of the current subscription period, and a refund of any unused top-up allowance at the price you paid for it. We pay it to your original payment method within 14 days.
Subject always to sections 10.1 and 12, we are not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of upstream AI providers, hosting providers or payment processors, network failures, cyber-attacks, strikes, war, or government action.
Changes to the service. We develop Strive continuously and features will change. Where you pay for the service and we make a change that goes beyond keeping it working properly, we will only do so for a valid reason — security, a legal or regulatory requirement, a change by one of our providers, technical necessity, or the ordinary evolution of the product — at no extra cost to you, and we will tell you clearly. If the change harms your access to or use of what you paid for more than minimally, you may terminate free of charge within 30 days of being told or of the change, whichever is later, and we will refund the unused part of what you paid. This reflects Article 19 of Directive (EU) 2019/770.
Changes to these Terms. We may change these Terms where there is a valid reason — a change in the law, a change in the service, a new feature, a security or fraud concern, or a change in our costs or providers. We will tell you by email or in the product before a material change takes effect, and we will say what is changing. Where a change reduces your rights or what you have already paid for, we will give you at least 14 days' notice. If you do not want to accept a change, you may close your account before it takes effect and we will refund the unused part of anything you have paid for. If you keep using Strive after that date, the new Terms apply. We will not use this to change what you have already paid for, mid-period, to your disadvantage.
These Terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Lithuania. If you are a consumer, this does not take away the protection of the mandatory consumer law of the country where you live — you keep it in full.
If something goes wrong, please write to admin@strive-learning.com first. Most things are resolved that way.
If you are a consumer, you may bring proceedings against us in the courts of the country where you live, or in the courts of Lithuania, and we may bring proceedings against you only in the courts of the country where you live. You may also ask the Lithuanian State Consumer Rights Protection Authority (Valstybinė vartotojų teisių apsaugos tarnyba, vvtat.lrv.lt) to consider the dispute out of court — you can do this if we have not resolved your complaint within 14 days — or the equivalent consumer body in your own country.
If you are not a consumer, the courts of Vilnius, Lithuania have exclusive jurisdiction.
Sections 6 (Your content), 7 (Our content), 9 (Warranties), 10 (Limitation of liability), 11 (Responsibility for your own material and use), 12 (Statutory rights), 13 (Ending your account), 16 (Governing law) and 18 (Miscellaneous) survive any termination of these Terms or your account.
If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder remains in full effect. We may assign these Terms to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition or asset sale; you may not assign without our consent. No waiver of any term is effective unless in writing. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service and supersede any prior arrangement on the same subject.
