Terms of Service — WikiGuard

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using WikiGuard (“the Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

WikiGuard is a Wikipedia monitoring service that detects changes to Wikipedia pages you specify and delivers notifications via email and browser alerts. We provide change history, diff analysis, and analytics for your monitored pages.

WikiGuard is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Wikimedia Foundation or Wikipedia. We access publicly available Wikipedia data through the Wikimedia API.

3. Account Registration

You must create an account to use the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. You agree to provide accurate information and to update it as needed.

4. Subscriptions & Billing

WikiGuard offers paid subscription plans billed through Stripe. By subscribing, you authorize recurring charges at the rate specified for your selected plan.

14-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied, you may request a full refund within 14 days of your first subscription payment by emailing [email protected] from your account email. This guarantee applies once per account, to the first subscription payment only.
No refunds after 14 days. After the 14-day guarantee period, all payments are final. We do not offer refunds for any subscription period, partial or otherwise.
Pause your subscription. You may pause your subscription at any time through the Stripe billing portal. Your remaining time will be preserved and you can resume the Service when you are ready.
Cancel for credit. If you cancel your subscription, any unused time on your current billing period will be converted to account credits through Stripe. These credits can be applied to future subscriptions.
Plan changes. You may upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. Changes take effect at the start of your next billing cycle, or immediately for upgrades (with prorated charges).
