4.Account Registration & Roles
4.1 Registration
To use certain features of the Service, you must register for an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration
- Maintain and promptly update your account information
- Maintain the security of your password and accept responsibility for all activities under your account
- Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account
You must be at least 18 years old to create a Business Operator account. Consumers must be at least 16 years old, or have parental consent where required by local law.
4.2 Business Operators
As a Business Operator, you are responsible for the accuracy of your business listings, product descriptions, pricing, availability, and the fulfillment of orders placed by Consumers through your storefront. You represent that you have the legal authority to offer the goods and services you list, and that your business operations comply with all applicable local laws and regulations.
You are responsible for managing your team members’ access levels and permissions. Actions taken by staff members you invite are your responsibility.
4.3 Consumers
As a Consumer, you acknowledge that transactions are between you and the Business Operator. Cronos facilitates the booking and payment process but is not a party to the underlying transaction unless explicitly stated. Refund and cancellation policies are set by each Business Operator, subject to applicable consumer protection laws.
5.Subscription Plans & Billing
5.1 Plans
We offer multiple subscription tiers with varying features and limits:
- Angel — Entry-level plan for small businesses starting at €25/month
- Custom VA — Enhanced features for growing businesses at €275/month
- On Premise — Enterprise solutions with custom pricing
Plan features, limits, and pricing are subject to change with at least 30 days’ notice.
5.2 Billing
Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on your selected billing cycle. All fees are quoted in Euros (EUR) unless otherwise specified. You authorize us to charge your designated payment method for all fees incurred.
If a payment fails, we will notify you and provide a reasonable grace period (typically 7 days) to update your payment method before downgrading or suspending your account.
5.3 Free Trials & Promotional Offers
We may offer free trials or promotional pricing from time to time. Unless you cancel before the trial period ends, your account will automatically convert to the selected paid plan. Trial terms will be clearly disclosed at sign-up.
5.4 Refunds
Subscription fees are non-refundable except where required by applicable law. If you cancel, you retain access until the end of your current billing period. No partial-month refunds are issued.
5.5 Plan Changes
You may upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing period. If a downgrade reduces your plan limits below your current usage, we will notify you and provide guidance on adjusting your configuration.
6.Marketplace & Transaction Terms
6.1 Role of Cronos
Cronos operates as a technology platform that connects Business Operators with Consumers. We are not a party to the transactions between Business Operators and Consumers, except where explicitly stated. We do not own, control, or manage the goods and services listed by Business Operators.
6.2 Business Operator Obligations
Business Operators using the platform to sell goods or services agree to:
- Set accurate pricing, including applicable taxes and fees
- Honor confirmed bookings and orders in a timely manner
- Clearly communicate cancellation and refund policies on their storefront
- Comply with all applicable consumer protection, tax, and e-commerce laws in their jurisdiction
- Respond to Consumer inquiries within a reasonable timeframe
6.3 Consumer Obligations
Consumers using the platform to purchase goods or services agree to:
- Provide accurate information when placing orders or making bookings
- Honour confirmed reservations and attend booked appointments
- Review the Business Operator’s cancellation and refund policies before completing a transaction
- Raise disputes or refund requests with the Business Operator in the first instance
6.4 Disputes Between Users
Disputes arising from transactions between Business Operators and Consumers should be resolved directly between the parties. We may, at our discretion, assist in mediation but are not obligated to do so. If a dispute cannot be resolved, either party may pursue remedies available under applicable law.
7.Fair Use Policy
Cronos is designed for real business operations. We intentionally keep our plans generous — but to ensure platform quality and availability for all customers, the following fair use guidelines apply.
7.1 AI Agent (Sky)
The Sky agent is provided for genuine business automation. Permitted use:
- Processing customer inquiries and bookings related to your business
- Automating routine operational tasks within your subscription scope
- Generating business communications and responses to customers
Prohibited use:
- Using the AI agent for purposes unrelated to your business operations
- Automated bulk operations designed to circumvent plan limits
- Reselling or sublicensing AI agent access to third parties
- Intentionally generating excessive system load
7.2 Resource Limits
Plan limits on team members, locations, products, orders, and storage are calibrated for normal business usage. If your usage significantly and consistently exceeds typical patterns for your tier, we will:
- Reach out to understand your use case and find a solution together
- Recommend an upgrade to a more suitable plan if applicable
- In rare cases of platform impact, temporarily throttle excessive resource consumption
We will always contact you before taking any restrictive action. Our goal is to support your growth, not limit it.
7.3 API Usage
API access is for integrating Cronos with your own business systems. Permitted use includes syncing data, building custom workflows, and automating repetitive tasks. Rate limits apply per plan tier and are documented in our API reference.
Prohibited: excessive polling, scraping, reverse-engineering the API, or attempts to circumvent rate limits. Violations may result in temporary or permanent API access suspension.
7.4 Storage
File storage is for business content — product images, invoices, and documents. It may not be used for personal backup, off-platform content distribution, or storing illegal or infringing material.
7.5 Enforcement
If we identify a potential fair use issue, our process is:
- Contact you directly to understand the situation
- Work together on a solution (plan upgrade, usage adjustment, etc.)
- For continued violations: feature limitation or account suspension
- For intentional, clear-cut abuse: immediate termination without notice
If you expect an unusual usage spike — such as a large seasonal event or marketing campaign — please contact us in advance at issue@cronos.nexus. We’re happy to accommodate.
8.Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Violate any applicable laws or regulations
- Infringe on intellectual property rights of others
- Transmit malware, viruses, or other malicious code
- Attempt unauthorized access to our systems or other users’ accounts
- Engage in fraudulent transactions or misrepresent your identity
- Harass, abuse, or harm other users
- Send spam or unsolicited communications through the platform
- Scrape, crawl, or index the platform by automated means without written permission
- List counterfeit goods, stolen property, or illegal services
- Manipulate reviews, ratings, or loyalty program balances
We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action — including removal of content, suspension of accounts, and reporting to law enforcement — in response to violations of this section.
9.Content & User Data
9.1 Your Content
You retain full ownership of all content you upload to the platform, including product images, descriptions, documents, and business data. By uploading Content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, display, and transmit that Content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you and your customers.
This license terminates when you delete the Content or close your account, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate backup purposes (see Section 16).
9.2 Content Standards
You are solely responsible for the Content you publish on the platform. Content must not:
- Be unlawful, defamatory, obscene, or fraudulent
- Infringe any third party’s intellectual property or privacy rights
- Contain personally identifiable information of others without their consent
- Be misleading or deceptive regarding the nature, quality, or price of goods or services
We may remove Content that violates these standards without prior notice, though we are not obligated to monitor or review Content proactively.
9.3 AI-Generated Content
Content generated by the Sky AI agent (e.g., product descriptions, communications, or summaries) is provided as a convenience. You are responsible for reviewing and approving any AI-generated Content before it is published or sent to customers. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness of AI-generated output.
10.Intellectual Property
10.1 Our IP
The Service and its original content, features, functionality, design, and underlying technology are owned by SuddenDev FZE and protected by international copyright, trademark, patent, and other intellectual property laws. The Cronos name, logo, and Sky brand are trademarks of SuddenDev FZE.
You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of our Service or included software, nor may you reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the source code, unless applicable law permits it.
10.2 Feedback
If you provide us with suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, you grant us an unrestricted, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate that feedback into the Service without obligation or compensation to you.
11.Third-Party Services & Integrations
The Service integrates with third-party providers including Stripe, PayPal, Channex, Jitsi, DHL, Tutanota, and others. Your use of these integrations is subject to each provider’s own terms of service and privacy policy.
We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or content of third-party services, nor for any damages arising from their use. If a third-party service experiences downtime or changes its terms, we will make reasonable efforts to provide alternative solutions but cannot guarantee uninterrupted functionality of integrated features.
When you connect a third-party account (e.g., a Stripe account or channel manager), you authorize us to exchange data with that service as necessary to operate the integration. You may disconnect integrations at any time through your account settings.
12.Payment Processing
12.1 Platform Payments
Payments for platform subscriptions are processed by PCI-compliant third-party processors. We do not store full payment card data on our servers. By using payment features, you agree to the applicable processor’s terms.
12.2 Consumer Payments to Businesses
Payments from Consumers to Business Operators are processed through the Business Operator’s connected payment account (e.g., Stripe Connect). Cronos facilitates the transaction but does not hold funds on behalf of either party unless required for dispute resolution.
Business Operators are responsible for any chargebacks, refunds, or payment disputes initiated by Consumers or payment processors. We may assist in providing transaction records but are not liable for payment-related losses.
12.3 Currency & Taxes
Prices are displayed in the currency configured by each Business Operator. Business Operators are solely responsible for setting correct tax rates, collecting applicable taxes, and remitting them to the appropriate tax authorities. Cronos provides tax configuration tools but does not provide tax advice or guarantee tax compliance.
13.Loyalty Programs & Subscription Credits
Business Operators may offer loyalty programs and subscription credit systems through the platform. These programs are operated and controlled by the respective Business Operator, not by Cronos.
- Loyalty points and subscription credits have no cash value and cannot be transferred or exchanged outside the issuing business
- Business Operators may modify or discontinue their loyalty program terms at any time, subject to reasonable notice to affected Consumers
- Cronos is not responsible for the value, availability, or fulfillment of loyalty rewards or subscription benefits offered by Business Operators
- Accumulated points or credits are forfeited if a Consumer’s account is terminated for violation of these Terms
14.Service Availability & Support
14.1 Uptime
We strive to maintain high availability of the Service. However, we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Scheduled maintenance will be announced in advance where possible. We are not liable for downtime caused by factors beyond our reasonable control, including internet outages, hosting provider failures, or force majeure events.
14.2 Support
Support is provided via email at issue@cronos.nexus. Response times and support channels may vary by subscription plan. Enterprise customers may be eligible for dedicated support arrangements as specified in their service agreement.
15.Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, SuddenDev FZE shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, regardless of whether we were advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our total aggregate liability for any and all claims related to the Service shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred Euros (€100).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by applicable law.
16.Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. We specifically disclaim all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, that results obtained from using the Service will be accurate or reliable, or that any defects will be corrected.
No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained from Cronos or through the Service shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.
17.Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SuddenDev FZE and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or related to:
- Your use of or access to the Service
- Your violation of these Terms
- Your violation of any third-party rights, including intellectual property or privacy rights
- Content you upload, publish, or transmit through the Service
- Any transaction between you and another user of the platform
18.Termination & Suspension
18.1 Termination by You
You may cancel your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting us. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You remain responsible for any outstanding fees incurred before cancellation.
18.2 Termination by Us
We may suspend or terminate your account immediately, without prior notice or liability, if:
- You materially breach these Terms
- Your account is used for illegal activity
- You fail to pay outstanding fees after reasonable notice
- Continued provision of the Service to you would violate applicable law
For less severe violations, we will attempt to provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy the issue before taking action.
18.3 Effect of Termination
Upon termination:
- Your right to access and use the Service ceases immediately
- Any outstanding orders or bookings remain subject to the Business Operator’s fulfillment obligations
- Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 10, 15, 16, 17, and 20) shall survive
19.Data Export & Portability
We believe your data belongs to you. You may export your data at any time using the platform’s built-in export features. Supported export formats include CSV and JSON for structured data.
After account termination, we retain your data for 30 days to allow you to request a final export. After this period, your data will be permanently deleted from our active systems, except where retention is required by law (e.g., transaction records retained for tax compliance as described in our Privacy Policy).
Backup copies may persist in encrypted form for up to 90 days after deletion from active systems, after which they are purged.
20.Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
20.1 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Arab Emirates, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
20.2 Dispute Resolution
In the event of a dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Service, we encourage you to contact us first at issue@cronos.nexus to seek an informal resolution.
If informal resolution is unsuccessful within 30 days, any dispute shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. For EU-resident Consumers, nothing in this section affects your right to bring proceedings in your country of residence under applicable consumer protection laws.
21.General Provisions

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any supplementary terms presented at the time of feature activation, constitute the entire agreement between you and SuddenDev FZE regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements or communications.
21.2 Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
21.3 Waiver
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of SuddenDev FZE.
21.4 Assignment
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations to a successor entity in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of our assets, provided the successor agrees to honour these Terms.
