Effective date: 2026-08-02 Last updated: 2026-08-02
1. Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the RIVYL website, application, and services (collectively, the "Service") operated by RIVYL Inc. ("RIVYL", "we", "our", "us").
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Description of the Service
RIVYL is an AI-powered platform for direct-to-consumer ("DTC") brands. The Service enables you to:
- Connect advertising accounts on Meta, Google, TikTok, and other platforms
- Connect commerce platforms such as Shopify
- Use AI agents to analyze ad performance, research competitors, draft new creative, propose campaigns, and (with your approval) launch campaigns to your connected accounts
- Access a workspace, dashboards, and research tools
RIVYL is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Meta, Google, TikTok, Shopify, or any other connected platform. RIVYL operates as a third-party tool acting on your authorization.
3. Eligibility
To use the Service you must:
- Be at least 18 years old
- Have the legal authority to bind any organization on whose behalf you sign up
- Have the legal right to connect any ad account, store, or other property you authorize
- Not be barred from using the Service under applicable laws
4. Your account
4.1 Registration
You must provide accurate and complete information when registering and keep it up to date.
4.2 Security
You are responsible for:
- Keeping your credentials confidential
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Notifying us promptly at security@rivyl.xyz if you suspect unauthorized access
We may suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe are compromised.
4.3 One account per organization
You may not share a single account across multiple organizations or resell access. Team plans are available for multi-user organizations.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any illegal purpose or in violation of any applicable law
- Run ads that violate Meta, Google, TikTok, or other platform policies
- Promote products or content prohibited by your connected platforms (regulated drugs, weapons, hate speech, deceptive practices, etc.)
- Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or scrape the Service
- Resell, sublicense, or white-label the Service without a written agreement
- Use the Service to send spam or unsolicited communications
- Interfere with other users or the operation of the Service
- Use the Service to compete with us by building a competing product
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate this section.
6. Connected ad accounts and platforms
6.1 Your authorization
When you connect a third-party account via OAuth, you authorize RIVYL to access and act on the data and capabilities permitted by the scopes you granted.
6.2 Scope of automated actions
RIVYL agents may draft campaigns, creative, audiences, budgets, and other changes automatically. RIVYL agents will not publish, modify, or pause anything on your connected accounts without your explicit approval, unless you have separately enabled and acknowledged an automation feature (e.g., scheduled launches you preconfigured).
6.3 Spend authorization
All ad spend is incurred on your connected accounts using your billing relationships with those platforms. RIVYL does not advance, hold, or process your ad spend. You remain solely responsible for all ad costs incurred on your accounts, whether initiated manually or via approved RIVYL automations.
6.4 Compliance with platform policies
You are responsible for ensuring that any campaign published from RIVYL complies with the applicable advertising policies of the destination platform. RIVYL is not liable for platform-level rejections, account suspensions, or restrictions arising from your ads.
6.5 Disconnection
You may disconnect any third-party platform at any time from your RIVYL settings or from the platform itself. Disconnection revokes RIVYL's tokens and stops further data sync. Existing data may be retained per our Privacy Policy. If you ask us to disassociate from a connected account, we will do so and ensure you regain exclusive control within three business days.
7. AI agents, outputs, and limitations
7.1 AI outputs are suggestions
The Service generates ad copy, headlines, creative briefs, audience suggestions, campaign drafts, analytical insights, and similar outputs using AI models. These outputs are suggestions intended to assist your decision-making, not definitive recommendations or guarantees.
7.2 No performance guarantees
RIVYL does not guarantee any specific ROAS, click-through rate, conversion rate, sales, revenue, growth, audience size, or other commercial outcome. Past performance of similar campaigns is not indicative of future results.
7.3 User review responsibility
You are responsible for reviewing, fact-checking, and approving any AI-generated content before it is published, sent to a connected platform, or used in customer-facing contexts. RIVYL is not liable for inaccuracies, errors, or policy violations in AI-generated content that you approve and publish.
7.4 Ownership of generated content
You retain ownership of:
- Your input data (brand profile, ad data, products, prompts)
- The specific AI outputs generated for you (creative drafts, copy, campaign plans)
RIVYL retains ownership of:
- The platform, code, models, and infrastructure
- Insights and benchmarks derived solely from publicly available advertising data
- Improvements to its agents derived from product-usage analytics and publicly available data, and not from data obtained through your connected Meta or Google accounts
7.5 No professional advice
The Service is not a substitute for legal, financial, accounting, medical, or other professional advice. AI outputs may contain inaccuracies or hallucinations. Always verify important information independently.
8. Subscriptions and billing
