Terms of Service
Last Updated: June 16, 2026 Effective Date*: August 15, 2026
Introduction
These Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Platform Rules constitute a legal agreement between you and Lovable Labs Incorporated ("Lovable," "we," or "us") to use lovable.dev (the "Site") and other products and services made available on the Site, along with any associated apps, software, and websites (the "Services"). By using the Site and any of our Services, you:
Acknowledge that you have read and understood these Terms;
Agree to be bound by these Terms;
Agree to our Privacy Policy; and
Commit to comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
You may accept these Terms as an individual acting on your own behalf, or on behalf of a company or other legal entity. If you accept on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and in that case "you" and "your" refer to that entity. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.
We may revise these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will provide at least thirty (30) days' advance notice by email or through the Services before they take effect, except where a shorter period is required to comply with law or to address a security or legal risk. If you expressly accept the changes before the end of the notice period (for example, by clicking to accept them in the Services), the revised Terms will take effect as of the date of your acceptance. Otherwise, your continued use of the Services after the changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
Definitions
When we use the following terms in these Terms, here's what we mean:
"AI Gateway" means our optional managed API service that lets you access third-party artificial intelligence models through our infrastructure.
"Credits" means the prepaid, non-refundable, non-redeemable units you purchase or receive to use the Services, as described on our Pricing Page. Credits are consumed as you use the Platform, Lovable Cloud, the AI Gateway, or other usage-based features. The value of a Credit and the rate at which Credits are consumed for a given action depend on your subscription plan and the feature used, and a Credit on one plan may not equate to a Credit on another.
"Customer Data" means any content, code, text, images, files, or other data that you input, upload, submit, host, or generate through the Services, including applications you create using the Platform. Customer Data does not include Usage Data or Lovable Materials.
"Infrastructure Provider(s)" means third-party providers of hosting, database, storage, networking, or related infrastructure services we use to provide Lovable Cloud (for example, Supabase).
"Lovable Cloud" means our optional cloud hosting and back-end environment, which may include database hosting, authentication, file and object storage, and API endpoints. Lovable Cloud may be provisioned on third-party infrastructure.
"Lovable Materials" means the Platform, the Services, the Site, and all related software, technology, documentation, tools, templates, algorithms, models, interfaces, content, and other materials that we develop, provide, or make available, together with all improvements, modifications, and derivative works. Lovable Materials do not include your Customer Data.
"Platform" means our software platform, accessible through the Site, that lets you create applications and websites by interacting with artificial intelligence.
"Third-Party AI Provider(s)" means external providers of artificial intelligence models or related services that you can access through the AI Gateway (for example, OpenAI, Google, or Anthropic).
"Usage Data" means telemetry, logs, performance data, usage metrics, and other technical data generated by or in connection with your use of the Services. Usage Data does not include Customer Data.
Your Account
Minimum Age
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Services. If you are under 18, you must have your parent or legal guardian's permission to use the Services.
Creation
To use the Services, you may need to create an account and provide certain information, such as your email address and a password. You agree to keep that information accurate, current, and complete, to update it promptly if it changes, and to allow us to use it to communicate with you about the Services. Notices we send using the contact information associated with your account satisfy any requirement to provide you with legal notice.
Organization Accounts
If you register or sign in using an email address belonging to your employer or another organization, we may treat your account as managed by that organization. Managed account administrators may access, manage, retain, suspend, or terminate the account and its contents, including any associated Customer Data. We will notify you when we treat your account as managed, or rely on the organization to do so where it has agreed to.
License to Use Our Services
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, revocable license to access and use the Services, as permitted in your subscription plan, for your personal or internal business purposes - including to create, deploy, operate, and make available the applications, websites, and other products you build using the Services, and to permit your end users to access and use those projects. This license does not give you any ownership interest in the Services or Lovable Materials, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by us. This license terminates immediately if you violate these Terms or your account is terminated for any reason.
License Restrictions
You agree not to, and not to allow others to:
copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, sublicense, or otherwise exploit the Services or Lovable Materials except as expressly permitted in these Terms;
resell, provide, or make the Services available to any third party on a service bureau or time-sharing basis;
share your account credentials or allow unauthorized access to your account;
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive source code, models, or algorithms underlying the Services;
bypass or disable any security, usage, or access controls;
use automated tools (such as bots, scrapers, or crawlers) to access or interact with the Services without our written permission;
upload, transmit, or distribute any malicious code, viruses, or harmful content;
overload, disrupt, or interfere with the normal operation of the Services;
use the Services to harass, defame, impersonate, or otherwise harm others;
use the Services in violation of applicable laws, regulations, export controls, or sanctions;
use the Services in violation of our Platform Rules or any acceptable use policy we publish;
use the Services to generate or disseminate harmful, misleading, unlawful, or infringing content;
misrepresent AI Output as human-generated in contexts where it could cause harm or deception;
use AI Output without appropriate review in high-risk or sensitive contexts (including medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical uses);
extract, reconstruct, or attempt to determine model weights, training data, or system logic;
use our name, logos or other trademarks in connection with any product or service other than Services, or in any way that implies our affiliation, endorsement or sponsorship without us expressly permitting; or
use the Services, AI Output, or prompts to train, develop, or improve competing AI models.
Subdomain Usage and Management
Subdomains
If you use our Services to deploy applications or websites on subdomains under lovable.app (for example, [your-site-name].lovable.app), you acknowledge and agree that:
Lovable retains all ownership rights in the lovable.app domain and all subdomains.
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to reclaim, reassign, redirect, suspend, or terminate any subdomain at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to:
enabling the subdomain to be used by another user or for another purpose that better serves the Lovable community;
preventing confusion, impersonation, or trademark infringement;
addressing abuse, policy violations, inappropriate content, or violations of our Platform Rules;
recycling inactive or underutilized subdomain names, particularly common word or single word subdomains;
technical, operational, or business reasons.
We will generally provide a 7 days' advance notice before reclaiming a subdomain to allow you time to transition to a custom domain or challenge the reclamation. However, we reserve the right to reclaim subdomains immediately without notice when necessary to address urgent issues, including but not limited to violations of our Platform Rules, legal requirements, security threats, or abuse.
You have no proprietary, possessory, or ongoing rights to any specific subdomain, and reclamation of a subdomain does not entitle you to a refund or any other compensation.
You should not rely on the permanent availability of any particular subdomain and should use custom domains for mission-critical applications.
All content hosted on lovable.app subdomains must comply with our Platform Rules.
Usernames
If you create a username on the Platform, you acknowledge and agree that we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to reclaim, reassign, or terminate any username at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to: (a) usernames that are inappropriate, offensive, or violate our Platform Rules; (b) usernames that impersonate or could be confused with official Lovable pages, features, or routes (such as "home," "projects," "settings," or similar); or (c) usernames that impersonate another company, brand, or individual. You have no proprietary or ongoing rights to any specific username, and reclamation of a username does not entitle you to a refund or any other compensation.
Subscriptions, Fees, and Payments
Subscriptions
You can use the Platform under a free or paid plan, as described on our Pricing Page. Paid plans are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis and renew automatically unless you cancel before the renewal date in your account settings. Plan limits (for example, seats, features, or usage thresholds) are described on our Pricing Page and may change from time to time. Except where required by law, subscription fees are non-refundable.
Credits
The Credits we offer, their prices, the Services they apply to, and how they roll over, expire, or are forfeited are described on our Pricing Page. Credits are prepaid and, except where required by law, non-refundable, and non-redeemable for cash or any value; they represent only a limited license to access the Services and are not deposits, stored value, or financial instruments. Paid Credits may be used only while your subscription is active. If you cancel or your subscription otherwise ends but you have rolled-over Credits remaining, those Credits are frozen and remain available for reactivation until their expiry; resubscribing reactivates them. Freezing does not change the expiry date of any Credits.
Purchasing and Auto-Reload
You may purchase Credits through Stripe or another third-party payment processor that we designate from time to time. By purchasing Credits, you agree to be bound by the applicable terms and conditions of the payment processor in addition to these Terms. You may also enable auto-reload so that your balance is automatically replenished when it falls below a threshold you select.
Invoices and Records
We send you a monthly invoice for your Platform subscription and top-up charges, based on the records of our third-party payment processor. We use reasonable efforts to meter usage accurately, though meterin
