Legal

Terms of Service

Last updated: 20 September 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and William Nord, operating as Nord Digital Labs (sole proprietorship, Ennetbaden, Switzerland — postal address in the Impressum) ("Lykka", "we") when you use lykka.io. Short version: bring your real career story, review what the AI drafts before you send it anywhere, don't abuse the service — and your data stays yours.

1. What Lykka is (and isn't)

Lykka stores your career data, scores how you match a job description, and generates tailored resume and cover-letter drafts from your own information. Lykka is a drafting tool, not an agent: we don't submit applications for you, we don't guarantee interviews or offers, and match scores are informed estimates, not promises.

Lykka does not provide legal, immigration, recruitment, HR, or other professional advice, and does not guarantee that a document is suitable for a vacancy or will lead to an interview, offer, or any other employment outcome. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that the law does not allow us to exclude.

2. Your account

  • You must be at least 16 and provide accurate account information. If the law where you live requires parental or guardian consent for you to use a service like Lykka, you must have it.
  • Keep your credentials to yourself; you're responsible for activity under your account. One account per person.
  • You can delete your account at any time in Settings — what is deleted, and the little that is retained, is described precisely in the Privacy Policy.
  • Lykka is designed for worldwide use; during the current invited private beta, access is by invitation only. You may not use it where doing so is prohibited by law, including from countries subject to comprehensive Swiss, EU, or US sanctions.

3. Your content — and what the AI does with it

  • You own your content: the career data you enter, the files you upload, and the documents Lykka generates for you. You give us the limited license needed to host, process, transmit, format, secure, support, and delete your content, enforce these terms, and comply with the law, as described in the Privacy Policy. We don't use your content to train AI models. To the extent Lykka has any rights in generated output, we assign them to you — though we can't promise that AI-generated output qualifies for copyright protection or will never resemble third-party material.
  • Only upload what's yours to upload. You confirm that you have the right to upload and use everything you provide to Lykka, and that it does not unlawfully disclose another person's confidential or personal information (for example an employer's internal documents, or a reference's details shared without their knowledge).
  • Truthfulness is on you. Lykka is designed to work from what you provided and to avoid inventing your experience — but tailoring is not transcription: the AI may phrase role-typical responsibilities in ways that go beyond your exact words. You are responsible for verifying every claim in a generated document, for the accuracy of the career data you enter, and for the content of anything you send to an employer.
  • The final version is yours — reviewed or not. Generated documents and match scores are automated drafts. They may omit facts, misstate facts, or use role-typical wording that is not true of you. Before you download, submit, publish, or rely on an output, check every statement, remove or correct anything you cannot personally substantiate, and check the employer's application, legal, visa, licensing, and eligibility requirements yourself. You are responsible for the final version you choose to use, whether or not you reviewed it carefully.
  • If your breach causes a claim against us, you cover it. If your intentional or negligent breach of these content rules causes a third-party claim against Lykka, you will reimburse the reasonable loss and defence costs caused by your breach, to the extent the law allows. This does not cover any part of a claim caused by Lykka's own conduct. We will notify you of such a claim and let you participate in the defence.

4. Acceptable use

Don't:

  • scrape, bulk-export, or republish the job listings in Lykka (they're for your personal job search; linking out to the original posting is always fine);
  • resell, sublicense, or offer Lykka's generation capability to third parties as your own service;
  • use Lykka to produce misleading documents for someone other than yourself, or to impersonate another person;
  • probe, overload, or work around our security or fair-use controls (rate limits exist so the service stays affordable for everyone);
  • automate or share paid access, cycle accounts, payments, cancellations, refunds, or chargebacks to evade Free, payment, fair-use, or abuse controls;
  • upload content that is unlawful or that you have no right to use;
  • use the service in any way that violates applicable law.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules. Where reasonable, we'll warn you first.

5. Plans, subscriptions, and billing

Lykka Free includes unlimited ordinary job matching and tracking plus one tailored application generation per account lifetime. Lykka+ provides unlimited legitimate individual use of its paid features while the membership is active. “Unlimited” does not permit bots, scripted bulk generation, account sharing, resale, retry storms, security circumvention, or other activity prohibited by these terms. Technical concurrency, security, fair-use, and provider-emergency controls may protect the service, but Lykka+ has no hidden generation balance or ordinary-use quota.

During the invited private beta, each invited member may make up to five complete resume generations and ten section regenerations across the beta; other paid-compute features also have stated beta allowances. These are testing allowances, not a recurring public free plan. Deleting and recreating an account does not reset them.

The beta is exactly that: features and output quality are incomplete and will change as we learn. Keep your own copies of documents that matter to you.

When public paid checkout is activated, Lykka+ is offered to eligible B2C customers in Switzerland, the European Union, and the United States at USD 13 per week, USD 29 per month, or USD 77.90 every three months. Those advertised USD amounts include applicable tax. Each option provides the same Lykka+ features, begins after payment is confirmed, and renews automatically at its selected cadence until cancelled. Monthly may be selected initially on the purchase screen, but you can review and choose any available cadence before paying.

You may cancel using the subscription-management method shown in Settings or by contacting support. Ordinary cancellation stops the next renewal and takes effect at the end of the period already paid for; it does not create a refund or credit for amounts already charged. Failed initial payment grants no paid access. A failed renewal may end paid access; successful payment recovery may reactivate it. Existing work remains available under the Free account contract.

We do not offer voluntary refunds or credits merely because you cancel, use less than expected, or no longer want the service. This does not limit remedies required by applicable law or appropriate remedies for duplicate or unauthorized charges, billing errors, or our material failure to provide the purchased service. If applicable law gives you a valid right to withdraw, an accepted withdrawal ends paid access immediately and we provide the remedy that law requires. Contact support@lykka.io from the account concerned so we can verify the request safely. Exercising a valid consumer right is not abuse; documented automation, account sharing, resale, payment fraud, chargeback coercion, or account/refund cycling may be enforced under Section 4 to the extent the law permits.

If you live in the European Union. Consumer law may give you a right to withdraw from your first Lykka+ purchase within 14 days. Because you ask us to start Lykka+ immediately after payment, the availability and financial remedy for a withdrawal depend on the law that applies, including any lawful charge for service already supplied. Email support@lykka.io from the account concerned. An accepted withdrawal ends paid access when we receive it and we provide the remedy the law requires. A withdrawal right does not start again with each automatic renewal. Residents of Switzerland and the United States have no equivalent general statutory withdrawal right; the remedies above still apply to them.

Failed renewals. If a renewal payment fails, Stripe retries it for up to three days while your access continues. If every retry fails, the subscription is cancelled and access ends. Any payment page sent to you for that unpaid invoice may still accept payment; paying it buys only the period that invoice covers and does not restart the subscription. Contact support if you paid such an invoice by mistake.

Mandatory consumer rights available in your country are not waived by these terms.

The invited private beta currently operates without public paid subscriptions. Public paid checkout will not open until the required tax registrations, country controls, legal disclosures, subscription management, and provider verification are complete.

6. Our service commitment

Lykka is provided "as is." We work to keep it available and your data safe, but we don't promise uninterrupted service, and features may change as the product evolves. To the extent the law allows, we do not promise that drafts, match scores, job data, or other output will be accurate, complete, error-free, non-infringing, or suitable for a particular purpose. Mandatory consumer guarantees still apply.

If we ever discontinue the service, we'll give you reasonable notice and the opportunity to export your data where reasonably possible; immediate action may be necessary for legal, security, insolvency, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.

7. Intellectual property

The Lykka software, design, and branding are ours; these terms give you a personal right to use the service, not a license to copy it. Your content remains yours (§3).

8. Liability

To the extent the law allows, Lykka is not liable for lost profits, lost job opportunities, loss of reputation, or indirect or consequential damage.

Except where the law says otherwise, Lykka is liable only for intentional misconduct or gross negligence. Where liability exists despite that rule and the law allows a financial cap, Lykka's total liability arising from the service is limited to the greater of CHF 100 or the amount you paid Lykka during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

The cap does not apply to intentional misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by us, data-protection liability that cannot legally be limited, or any other liability the law does not allow us to limit.

9. Changes to these terms

We may change the service or these terms for legal, security, operational, or product reasons. We'll give reasonable advance notice of material changes where possible — in-app before they take effect. If a change materially disadvantages you, you may stop using Lykka and delete or export your data before it takes effect. Where the law requires your affirmative acceptance, we will ask for it. The current version is always at this address.

10. Governing law and venue

Swiss law governs these terms. If you are a consumer, this choice does not take away mandatory protections available under the law of your country of residence. Venue is Ennetbaden, Canton of Aargau, Switzerland (the operator's seat), subject to any mandatory consumer-protection venue rules in your country of residence.

11. The boring but important bits

  • Severability: if one term turns out to be unenforceable, the remaining terms continue to apply.
  • Force majeure: we are not responsible for failures caused by events outside our reasonable control — provider or internet outages, attacks, natural disasters, or government action.
  • No third-party beneficiaries: these terms are between you and us; they give no rights to anyone else (for example, an employer reading a document you sent them).
  • Transfer to a successor: we may transfer this agreement to a legal successor of the service (for example, a company we form to run Lykka), with notice to you and without reducing your rights.
