Please read these Terms of Service (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy carefully because
they govern your use of PodcastInc.ai website (“Product”), the Podcast Inc

products and services are collectively called the “Services”. The term “you” means
the individual accessing or using the Service, or the company, or other legal entity
on behalf of which such individual is accessing or using the Service, as applicable.
The term” Podcast Inc”, we” or “us” means Podcast LLC.

We may modify the Terms at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do so, we’ll let you

to use the Services after we have posted modified Terms on the Site, you are
indicating to us that you agree to be bound by the modified Terms. If you don’t
agree to be bound by the modified Terms, then you may not use the Services anymore.
