Terms
These terms are the agreement between you and Kuva. By creating an account or using Kuva, you agree to them. Our Privacy notice explains how we handle your information.
Your account
- Give your real name and your real class details.
- Keep one account for yourself, and keep your sign-in private.
- If you’re under 18, a parent or guardian needs to agree to these terms.
Course reps
Publishing for a class needs approval, and we can remove that access. As a rep, you’re responsible for what you publish being accurate and being yours to share with your class.
What you can’t do
- Post anything illegal, false, hateful or abusive, or anything that harasses someone or shares their private details.
- Post scams, or share materials you don’t have the right to share.
- Record a lecture without the lecturer’s permission.
- Try to get around Kuva’s limits or security, or get into anyone else’s account.
Posts that are reported can be hidden while we check them, and we can remove anything that breaks these terms.
Your schoolwork
Kuva’s AI tools can help you study and write, but your university’s rules still apply to you. You’re responsible for what you hand in, including whether AI help is allowed and for checking every fact and reference.
AI can be wrong, so check anything important. The originality check only compares your work with a few sources. It isn’t a Turnitin report and can’t search the whole web or other students’ work.
Credits
- AI tools use credits. The price is shown before you use one, and failed requests return their credits.
- Credits have no cash value and can’t be exchanged or transferred.
- Free credits are for one person, once. We may withhold or remove them where one person has claimed them more than once.
- Prices and free credit amounts can change. A change doesn’t affect a request already running.
Buying credits
- You can buy credits in packs. The price in naira is shown before you pay, and you pay on Paystack by card, bank transfer or USSD.
- Credits are added once Paystack confirms your payment, usually straight away and sometimes within a few minutes.
- Bought credits don’t expire. Your free credits are used before your bought ones.
- We refund a payment if you were charged but no credits were added, or if you were charged twice for one purchase. Contact us with the payment reference shown in Kuva. Otherwise, bought credits can’t be refunded or exchanged for cash.
- If we close your account for breaking these terms, unused bought credits aren’t refunded. If we stop running Kuva, we’ll tell you first and refund unused bought credits.
What you upload
What you add stays yours. You allow us to store it, show it to the people it’s meant for and process it to run the features you use, including sending it to the AI service. Materials you publish for your class can stay available to that class after your account is deleted.
Kuva’s service
We work to keep Kuva running and accurate, but it’s provided as it is. It may sometimes be unavailable, and materials and class times come from course reps, so we can’t promise they’re correct. Always confirm anything critical, such as an exam date, with your department.
As far as the law allows, we aren’t liable for indirect losses, such as missed classes, lost marks or lost files. Nothing here removes rights you have by law.
Ending your account
You can delete your account at any time from your profile. We can suspend or close an account that breaks these terms.
Changes and the law
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we’ll update the date above and tell you in Kuva. Continuing to use Kuva after that means you accept the change. These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
