Terms of service

1. What this is

These terms are the agreement between Olee AI LLC(“we”, “us”) and the firm or person using LawPal (“you”). Creating an account, or using the service, means accepting them. If you are accepting on behalf of a practice, you are confirming you may bind it.

2. What LawPal is, and what it is not

LawPal is a research, record-keeping and drafting tool for legal practice in Sri Lanka. It searches published judgments and Acts, keeps the records you enter, and produces documents from templates and from your own material.

It is not a lawyer and it does not give legal advice. Nothing it produces is advice, an opinion, or a prediction of an outcome, and nothing in it creates a lawyer-client relationship between you and us. Every reading, draft, chronology, summary and computed date is material for a qualified person to check and take responsibility for.

It does not file, serve or send anything. Approving a draft marks it ready for a person to take to a registry. No part of this service lodges a document with a court, serves a party, or sends a notice on your behalf.

The dates it computes are arithmetic on what you entered. A prescription clock counts from a date you typed, using a standard period you chose, and moves off a weekend or a day you told us your courts are shut. It is a reminder, not an opinion about whether a claim is in time. Getting the date on the matter wrong produces a confident wrong clock, and only you can check that date.

3. Your account

• You are responsible for what happens under your account, and for the people you invite into your workspace.
• Keep your password to yourself. Turn on two-factor authentication if more than one person can reach your device.
• Tell us promptly if you think somebody else has got in. There is a “sign out every other device” button on Settings for exactly this.
• One account is one person. Sharing a login across a practice makes the audit log useless, which is the log that protects you.

4. What you may not do

• Upload material you have no right to hold, or use the service to hold somebody else’s confidential documents without authority.
• Present what LawPal produces to a client or a court as though a qualified person had checked it, when nobody has.
• Resell, rent out, or provide the service to somebody outside your practice as though it were your own.
• Copy the library out in bulk, scrape it, or use automated means to extract the corpus. Reading it for your own work is the point; taking it is not.
• Try to reach another firm’s workspace, or probe the service for a way in. If you find one, tell us - see Security.
• Use the service to do anything unlawful, or to send anything to anybody that they have not agreed to receive.

5. What it costs, and how the meter works

The Single plan is LKR 5,000 a month and carries 3,300 tokens for one person. The Firm plan is LKR 50,000 a month and carries 33,300 tokens for up to 10 people. Enterprise is agreed in writing. A top-up is sold at your own plan’s rate - LKR 1.50 or LKR 1.50 a token - and we will not make a top-up token cost more than a plan token. What each action spends is set out on the pricing page and is the same table the software charges against.

• Plans are monthly. You can move between them or stop, and a change takes effect at the end of the month you are in.
• A document is charged on the pages actually produced, never on an estimate made beforehand.
• Reading, browsing, downloading, filing, the diary and the bells are free, and we intend to keep them free.
• If the balance runs out: seats stay, metered actions stop, and nothing is deleted. Reading your own file remains free.
• If we change a price, we will tell the firm’s admins by email at least 30 days before it applies to you.

Payments are taken by PayHere or by bank transfer against an invoice. Card details never reach us. Refunds are dealt with in the refund policy.

6. Your material stays yours

Everything you upload or type - documents, notes, matters, drafts - remains yours. You give us only the permission we need to run the service for you: to store it, index it, and read it to answer your own firm’s questions.

We do not use your material to answer another firm’s question, and we do not train models on it. What we hold and which processors are involved is set out in the privacy notice.

You can export everything the firm holds from Settings at any time, and you can have the account deleted. Deletion is final.

7. The library of judgments and Acts

Judgments are delivered in open court and published by the courts; Acts are published by the Government Publications Bureau. Under section 8(b) of the Intellectual Property Act, No. 36 of 2003, official texts of a legislative, administrative or legal nature carry no copyright - which is what permits anyone, us included, to reproduce them. We hold no publisher’s headnotes, digests or commentary.

We do not warrant that the library is complete or current. A judgment may be missing, an Act may be held in a form that a later amendment has changed, and the amendment list on a reading shows what this library holds rather than the whole amendment history. Check the official text before relying on it. If something about you in the library is wrong, the way to tell us is on the removal page.

8. Our own software

The software, the interface, the templates we wrote and the structure of the library are ours. Nothing here transfers that to you. The documents you produce with the templates are yours to use in your practice without further permission from us.

9. Availability

We work to keep the service up and we do not promise a particular uptime figure. We may take it down for maintenance, and we will avoid business hours in Sri Lanka where we can. Parts of the service depend on other companies (listed under Security); if one of them is down, that part of LawPal is down.

10. What we are not responsible for

We are responsible for running the service with reasonable care. We are not responsible for the professional consequences of what somebody does with what it produced: a missed date, a filing made on a computed day nobody checked, an authority cited without reading it, or advice given to a client on the strength of a reading. Those are acts of a qualified person, and the product says so on the screen where each of them happens.

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for any claim arising out of this agreement is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose. We are not liable for loss of profit, loss of business, or indirect loss. Nothing here limits liability for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.

11. Ending it

• You can stop at any time: remove your seats, or close the account from Settings.
• We can suspend an account that is being used in breach of clause 4, and we will say why.
• We can end this agreement on 30 days’ notice. If we do, we will refund the unused part of anything you have prepaid.
• After the account is closed, take your export first. We keep what the law requires us to keep and delete the rest.

12. Changes to these terms

If we change them in a way that matters, we will email the firm’s admins and put the new date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the service after that is acceptance. The current version took effect on 13 September 2026.

13. Law and courts

This agreement is governed by the law of Sri Lanka, and the courts of Colombo have jurisdiction. Before either of us goes to court, we should try to settle it by talking - write to hi@lawpal.lk and a person will read it.

Who we are, for the avoidance of doubt

LawPal is operated by Olee AI LLC, and every notice under this document reaches us at hi@lawpal.lk. A person reads it, and we answer within the times set out above.

This document is written in English. If we publish a translation and the two disagree, the English is the one that governs.
