Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of GlotSpot ("GlotSpot," "we," "us," or "our"), including our websites, applications, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Eligibility
You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. We do not knowingly permit use of the Service by anyone under 18. If we learn that a user is under 18, we may suspend or terminate the account.
2. Accounts and magic-link access
The Service may use email-based magic links or similar passwordless authentication. You are solely responsible for maintaining access to the email address associated with your account and for any activity that occurs through your account.
Because access is tied to your email inbox, we are not obligated to recover, merge, transfer, or manually verify accounts when you lose access to that email, forget which email you used, or cannot complete the magic-link flow. If we cannot verify that you control the email on file through our normal authentication process, we may be unable to treat you as the account owner and may decline account-related requests, including deletion or support requests that require identity verification we cannot perform.
Account deletion may be offered through self-service flows that rely on the same email-based verification (for example, a link sent to your registered email). You are responsible for initiating and completing those flows. Except where required by applicable law, we are not responsible for deleting your account on your behalf outside of the verification mechanisms we make available, and we disclaim obligation to honor unverified deletion requests.
3. Your content and license to us
You retain any ownership rights you may have in content you submit, post, upload, or otherwise make available through the Service ("User Content"). For clarity, GlotSpot does not claim that you lose all ownership merely by posting; however, you grant GlotSpot and its successors a broad license that operates similarly to terms used by large social platforms: a non-exclusive, irrevocable (for the duration rights exist), perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, and otherwise use User Content in any media formats and through any media channels, in connection with operating, providing, promoting, improving, securing, analyzing, and developing the Service and our products, subject to applicable law and our Privacy Policy.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you waive any moral rights or similar rights you may have in User Content. You represent that you have the rights needed to grant the foregoing license. This license survives termination of your account to the extent necessary for us to exercise rights already granted, maintain backups, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
4. Community tools and moderation
The Service may include blocking, filtering, privacy controls, and similar features so you can shape your own experience. We do not undertake to moderate all content. You acknowledge that other users' conduct and content are primarily managed through user-side controls and reporting tools we may provide, and that your experience may include content you find objectionable despite those tools.
5. Suspension and termination
We reserve the right to suspend, terminate, refuse service to, or ban any user or account for any reason or no reason, with or without notice, including for conduct we believe violates these Terms, creates risk, or is otherwise harmful to GlotSpot, users, or third parties. We may remove or disable access to any User Content at any time.
6. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL GLOTSPOT OR ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.
7. Changes
We may modify these Terms at any time. We will post the updated Terms and update the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service.
8. Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and GlotSpot regarding the subject matter hereof. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely.
