Welcome to BookNova.ai. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our automated PDF book generation service. By accessing or using BookNova.ai, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
BookNova.ai is an AI-powered automated PDF book generator that provides the following services:
To use BookNova.ai, you must create an account by providing accurate and complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
You must be at least 18 years old to use our service. By using BookNova.ai, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, IMAGE LLC grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use BookNova.ai for your personal or commercial purposes.
BookNova.ai offers a lifetime access model with a one-time payment. Current pricing is displayed on our website and is subject to change at our discretion for new purchases. Your purchased access rights remain valid regardless of future price changes.
All payments are processed securely through Paddle, our Merchant of Record. By making a purchase, you agree to Paddle's terms and conditions. We do not store your payment card information.
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with BookNova.ai within 30 days of purchase, you may request a full refund by contacting [email protected]. Refunds are processed within 5-10 business days.
You retain all rights to the books and content you create using BookNova.ai. IMAGE LLC does not claim ownership of your generated content.
Content generated by our AI systems is provided to you for your use. While we use advanced AI technology, you are responsible for reviewing, editing, and ensuring the accuracy and appropriateness of all generated content before publication or distribution.
BookNova.ai, including its software, algorithms, design, trademarks, and all related intellectual property, remains the exclusive property of IMAGE LLC. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse engineer any part of our platform.
Although you retain ownership of the books and content you create, your right to use, publish, distribute, sell, or otherwise commercially exploit that content (including books, drafts, chapters, text, AI-generated images, and exported PDF files, collectively "Generated Content") is granted in exchange for, and conditional upon, your retained paid access to BookNova.ai.
If you request and receive a refund, this license is automatically and retroactively revoked. From that point you may no longer publish, distribute, sell, or upload any Generated Content on any platform — including Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and similar e-book, print-on-demand, and audiobook services — even if you have edited, rewritten, translated, or otherwise modified it. A work derived from Generated Content remains subject to this restriction regardless of how much it has been changed. Continuing to use Generated Content after a refund is a material breach of these Terms and unauthorized use of our service. Full details, including the remedies available to us, are set out in our Refund Policy (Sections 4.4 and 4.5).
Every book, chapter, character, plot, and image produced through BookNova.ai originates from instructions that you supply. You choose the premise. You write or approve the story bible. You define the characters and their ages. You select the genre, tone, language, heat level, and content rating. You write the custom instructions, and you supply any text you paste into the service. BookNova.ai applies your instructions to general-purpose artificial intelligence models; it does not originate subject matter of its own and does not decide what your book is about.
Accordingly, and for the avoidance of any doubt:
BookNova.ai is a self-service software tool and hosting service. In respect of the material you submit and the Generated Content stored in your account, we act as a provider of an intermediary hosting service within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the Digital Services Act) and the Latvian law implementing it. We do not initiate the generation of any book, do not select the user for whom it is generated, and do not select or modify the subject matter of what is generated, save for the automated safety screening described in Section 5.5.
The screening described in Section 5.5 is a safety measure we carry out voluntarily and in good faith. Consistent with Article 7 of the Digital Services Act, carrying out such own-initiative measures does not make us the author, originator, or publisher of any content, does not give us actual knowledge or awareness of unlawful content that the screening did not identify, and does not deprive us of any exemption from liability available to intermediary service providers.
You may not name, credit, list, or register BookNova.ai or IMAGE LLC as the author, co-author, writer, contributor, publisher, imprint, copyright holder, or rights holder of any Generated Content. This applies to the work itself, its front and back matter, its cover, retailer and distributor metadata (including Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Apple Books, Google Play Books, and Kobo), copyright registrations, ISBN records, catalogue entries, press material, and advertising.
You may truthfully state that a work was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence, and you must do so wherever a platform or applicable law requires such a disclosure (see Section 5.6). You may not, however, make any statement that suggests we wrote, reviewed, approved, vetted, or endorsed your work, or that we bear responsibility for its content.
You may not use our name, logo, or trademarks on or in connection with published Generated Content without our prior written permission. If a work is published in breach of this Section, you must correct the attribution, metadata, and registrations promptly upon written notice from us, at your own cost, and the indemnity in Section 10 applies in full to any claim, cost, or proceeding arising from the incorrect attribution.
Artificial intelligence models produce similar output from similar input. We do not warrant that Generated Content is unique or original, or that identical or substantially similar content has not been and will not be generated for another user. We do not warrant that Generated Content is free of third-party rights, or that it is eligible for copyright protection in any given jurisdiction — the legal status of AI-generated material differs between countries and remains unsettled in many of them. Verifying the position in every jurisdiction in which you publish is your responsibility.
BookNova.ai is a fiction-writing platform for adults. We do not require your stories to be tame: mature themes, graphic violence, dark subject matter, and explicit sexual content are all permitted in fiction, provided that:
Difficult themes may be the subject of a serious work of fiction — a crime novel may investigate abuse, a war novel may portray atrocity, a dark romance may portray coercion. What is prohibited is content that presents such acts as endorsed, gratifying, instructional, or aspirational rather than as narrative subject matter, and any content in Section 5.2 regardless of framing, literary merit, or claimed artistic intent.
The following are prohibited without exception. There is no artistic, satirical, educational, research, or "it is only fiction" exemption. Any of the following results in immediate termination under Section 5.7:
Enforcement note: our systems automatically reject any project rated "mature" or "explicit" in which a character is stated or implied to be under 18 years of age. If your story legitimately features a minor character, keep the project within a non-explicit rating, or age the character to 18 or over.
You further agree not to use BookNova.ai to generate, request, store, or distribute:
(a) Illegal or dangerous content
(b) Hate, harassment, and abuse
(c) Real people and privacy
(d) Deception and infringement
(e) Platform abuse
(f) Post-refund use
BookNova.ai generates content using third-party artificial intelligence providers, which currently include Google (Gemini), OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), DeepSeek, Together.ai, and Replicate, and which we may add to, change, or replace at any time without notice.
Your use of BookNova.ai is additionally subject to the usage and content policies of whichever provider processes your request. Any content prohibited by the applicable provider's policy is prohibited on BookNova.ai, even where it is not expressly listed in these Terms. Those policies are set by the providers, may change without notice to you, and are outside our control.
A provider may refuse, filter, truncate, or block any request at its sole discretion. We cannot override, appeal, or guarantee the outcome of such decisions, and a provider refusal does not constitute a failure of our service.
We operate automated screening — including keyword matching, pattern detection, and AI-based classification — on the material you submit (premises, story outlines, story bibles, character data, custom instructions, and image prompts) and on the content our systems generate.
Save for the automated screening described in this Section, we do not review generated content and are under no general obligation to monitor the material stored or generated on our platform. This does not limit our right to act upon any notice or report we receive.
You are solely responsible for all content you generate, publish, or distribute using BookNova.ai. This includes:
We are not liable for any claims, damages, account terminations, delistings, or legal issues arising from your use of generated content. Your indemnity obligations under Section 10 apply in full.
Where we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached, we may take any of the following actions, proportionate to the breach, with or without notice: issue a warning; block or delete the affected project or content; restrict features; suspend your account; or terminate your access permanently.
A breach of Section 5.2 results in immediate termination without notice and without refund. In such cases we will preserve the relevant account records and content, and will report the matter to law enforcement and/or the competent child-protection authorities where we are required or permitted to do so by law.
Termination for breach of this Section 5 is a termination for cause. It does not entitle you to any refund, and the licence to use Generated Content described in Section 4.4 is revoked upon such termination on the same terms as it is revoked upon refund.
Any person or entity may notify us of content generated or stored on BookNova.ai that they consider unlawful or in breach of this Section, by email to [email protected] with the subject line "Content Report".
So that we can act on it, a notice should contain:
We process notices in a timely, diligent, non-arbitrary, and objective manner, confirm receipt where contact details are provided, and inform the notifying party of the decision taken. We notify the affected user of any removal or restriction and the reasons for it, unless notification is prohibited by law or would obstruct the investigation of a serious criminal offence. We terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly provide manifestly illegal content, and we may suspend, after prior warning and for a reasonable period, the handling of notices from parties who frequently submit manifestly unfounded ones.
Each time you submit an instruction or input, and each time you generate, export, or publish content, you represent and warrant to us that:
These warranties are given by you personally, are relied upon by us in providing the service to you, and survive the termination of your account.
Your privacy is important to us. Our collection, use, and protection of your personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using BookNova.ai, you consent to our data practices as described in the Privacy Policy.
We store your book projects and generated content securely on servers located within the European Union, in compliance with GDPR regulations.
While we strive to provide continuous access to BookNova.ai, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. We may perform scheduled maintenance, updates, or emergency repairs that temporarily affect service availability.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of BookNova.ai at any time, with or without notice. We are not liable for any modifications, suspensions, or discontinuations of the service.
Lifetime access includes all future updates and improvements to the core book generation functionality. We may introduce additional premium features that require separate payment.
Important Notice: BookNova.ai uses artificial intelligence to generate book content. While our AI technology is advanced, it may occasionally produce:
You are responsible for reviewing, editing, fact-checking, and ensuring the accuracy and quality of all AI-generated content before publication or distribution. IMAGE LLC is not liable for any errors, inaccuracies, or issues in AI-generated content.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, BookNova.ai and all Generated Content are provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. We specifically disclaim the implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and we give no warranty that:
Without limiting Section 9.1, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, IMAGE LLC shall have no liability whatsoever, to you or to any third party, in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise, for:
The fact that our systems produced text or images at your direction does not make us their author, publisher, or a party responsible for them. Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7 govern the allocation of authorship and responsibility, and are to be read together with this Section.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW:
These limitations apply even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages and even if a limited remedy is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms affects your mandatory statutory rights under Latvian or European Union consumer law. Where applicable law does not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain liabilities, the exclusions and limitations in this Section apply only to the extent that law permits, and our liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless IMAGE LLC and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, damages, fines, penalties, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and the reasonable cost of internal time spent responding) arising out of or relating to:
We will notify you of any claim to which this indemnity applies. We may, at our option and at your expense, assume the exclusive defence and control of any such claim, in which case you will cooperate fully with us, provide all information and assistance we reasonably request, and preserve all relevant records. You may not settle any claim in a way that imposes any obligation, payment, restriction, or admission of fault or liability on any Indemnified Party without our prior written consent.
This indemnity is given in addition to, and does not limit, any other remedy available to us. It survives the termination, suspension, or deletion of your account and the refund of any amount paid, and continues to apply to any claim arising from your use of BookNova.ai before termination, however long after termination that claim is brought.
You may stop using BookNova.ai at any time. Termination does not entitle you to a refund beyond our 30-day refund policy period.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to BookNova.ai immediately, without notice, if:
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Latvia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of BookNova.ai shall be resolved through good faith negotiations. If negotiations fail, disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Riga, Latvia.
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our service, legal requirements, or business practices. We will notify you of material changes by:
Your continued use of BookNova.ai after changes to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and IMAGE LLC regarding BookNova.ai.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction.
The following provisions survive any expiry, suspension, or termination of these Terms or of your account, however arising and whichever party brings it about: Section 4.4 (conditional licence), Sections 4.5 to 4.8 (authorship, our role, attribution, and uniqueness), Section 5 (prohibited content, screening, enforcement, and your representations and warranties), Section 8 (AI content disclaimer), Section 9 (disclaimers and limitation of liability), Section 10 (indemnification), Section 12 (governing law and disputes), and this Section 14 — together with any other provision that by its nature is intended to survive.
Nothing in these Terms creates any partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency relationship between you and IMAGE LLC. You have no authority to make or accept any offer, representation, or commitment on our behalf, to hold yourself out as acting for us, or to describe yourself or your work as affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by us.
If you have any questions, concerns, or complaints regarding these Terms of Service, please contact us:
By using BookNova.ai, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.
