Terms of Service

These terms cover your use of FloraVista (floravista.ai). By using the site you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use FloraVista. Questions: contact@floravista.ai.

1. What FloraVista does

You upload a photo of a garden bed and answer a few questions. We choose plants for those conditions from our plant table using fixed rules, work out quantities, and draw a picture of the bed planted. The picture is free; the full plant list is a paid product.

2. Plant advice is general guidance

• Plant lists are general guidance based on the conditions you tell us (ZIP code, sun, bed size, pets, deer, style). They are not a site survey. Soil, drainage, microclimate, local rules and HOA requirements can change what will do well. Check with a local nursery or extension office if you're unsure.
• Plant data (hardiness, size, spacing, bloom time, toxicity, deer resistance, invasive status) comes from published references and general knowledge, has not yet been reviewed by a professional horticulturist, and may be incomplete or change. While a page shows "Preview: plant data is awaiting horticulturist review", treat the data as unreviewed.
• When you tell us dogs or cats use the yard, we leave out plants that our references list as toxic to dogs or cats. That is not a promise that a plant is safe for your pet: the data has not been reviewed by a horticulturist or a vet, and pets can react to any plant, mulch or fertilizer. Ask your vet if in doubt.
• Call 811 before you dig. In the US, dial 811 a few days before digging so buried utility lines can be marked. Never dig near marked lines.
• Pictures are AI-generated illustrations of the idea, not exact plans or a promise of how plants will look. The free picture carries a watermark.

3. Buying a plant list

• A plant list is a one-time purchase at the price shown before checkout (normally $19, US dollars, plus any tax shown). There are no subscriptions and no credits.
• A purchase includes the plant list for that bed, kept in your account for as long as FloraVista operates it, the clean (unwatermarked) picture, and 3 restyles of that bed.
• Payment is handled by Stripe. Your list unlocks once Stripe confirms the payment.
• If not enough plants pass our rules for your conditions, we tell you before you pay and don't charge you.

4. Refunds

Not right for your yard? Ask for a refund with one tap from your list within 30 days of purchase. The refund goes back to your original payment method through Stripe, and the list is locked again. One automatic refund is available per account; further refund requests are reviewed by us and answered by email. This doesn't limit any rights you have under consumer law.

5. Your account

You can sign in with Google or with an email and password. Keep your sign-in details to yourself; you're responsible for activity on your account. Tell us at contact@floravista.ai if you think someone else has used it.

6. Your photos and content

You keep ownership of the photos and information you give us. You give us permission to store, process and display them (including sending them to the service providers described in our Privacy Policy) only to provide FloraVista to you and to keep it working. Only upload photos you have the right to use, and please avoid photos that show people. You may use the pictures and lists we make for you for your own garden.

7. Fair use

Don't misuse FloraVista: no attempts to get around free-preview limits, scraping, automated access, reselling lists, uploading illegal or offensive images, or interfering with the service. We may limit or close accounts that do.

8. The service

We work to keep FloraVista available and accurate, but it is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we make no warranties beyond those stated here, including about how any plant will grow.

9. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, FloraVista is not liable for indirect or consequential losses (for example the cost of plants, labor, landscaping, or damage from digging), and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the plant list concerned.

10. Changes and governing law

We may update these terms; the date above shows the latest version, and changes apply from then on. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
