Terms of service
Draft, not yet in effect. The details in brackets are filled in before Zoku launches.
These terms are the agreement between you and [OWNER] (“we” and “us”), who runs Zoku. By creating an account or using Zoku, you agree to them. Please read them, along with the privacy policy, which says how Zoku handles your information.
1. Who can use Zoku
- You must be at least 13, and old enough where you live to use online services without a parent's consent.
- One account per person. Your account is yours alone; don't share it or sell it.
- You sign in with codes sent to your email, so keep that inbox secure. You're responsible for what happens on your account.
2. Your content
Your logs, scores, tags, reviews, verdicts and ranking are yours. So that Zoku can work, you give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, copy, show and format that content inside Zoku, including showing it to other Zoku users. The licence ends when you delete the content or your account, apart from copies in logs that our providers delete on their own schedule.
You're responsible for what you post. Only post what you have the right to post, and put anything that spoils a story in the spoiler section, so other fans can choose whether to read it.
3. Rules
When you use Zoku, don't:
- post anything illegal, or anything that harasses, threatens, or attacks people for who they are;
- post sexual content involving minors, or anyone's private information;
- pretend to be someone else, or spam;
- scrape Zoku, use bots or other automated access, or try to get around its rate limits, its person check, or its security;
- access anyone else's account, or try to;
- interfere with Zoku or the people using it, or use it to break any law.
We may remove content or suspend accounts that break these rules.
4. Show information
Show information and artwork come from TMDB. This product uses TMDB and the TMDB APIs but is not endorsed, certified, or otherwise approved by TMDB. The titles, artwork and characters of the anime in Zoku belong to their owners. Zoku isn't affiliated with them, and shows them only to identify what you're rating.
5. Zoku itself
The Zoku app, its design, its code and its name belong to [OWNER]. We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use the app under these terms. Don't copy, modify or resell it, or try to extract its source code. If you send us ideas or feedback, we can use them without owing you anything.
6. Changes to Zoku
Zoku is free. It's also young, so features will change, and some may be added or removed. We may change or stop Zoku, or any part of it. If we stop it altogether, we'll tell you in advance where we reasonably can.
7. Ending your account
You can delete your account at any time in the app: Settings, then Delete account. We may suspend or end your account if you break these terms, or if we have to in order to protect other people or Zoku. Sections 2 (for content already shared), 4, 5, 8, 9 and 10 still apply after your account ends.
8. Disclaimers
Zoku is provided “as is” and “as available”. As far as the law allows, we make no promises that it will always be available, error free, or that show information is accurate or complete.
9. Limit of liability
As far as the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for lost data, profits or goodwill, arising from your use of Zoku. Our total liability to you for any claim is limited to the greater of what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and 50 US dollars. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can't be limited by agreement.
10. The law that applies
These terms are governed by [GOVERNING LAW]. If you live in a country whose consumer law gives you more protection, you keep it.
11. Changes to these terms
If these terms change, the new version goes here with a new date, and if a change matters, Zoku will tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using Zoku after that, you accept the new terms. If you don't, you can delete your account.
