The short version
- These terms cover our website and all of our apps.
- You own the content you create. Don't use our services for anything illegal or harmful.
- Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them in your App Store or Google Play settings, and refunds go through Apple or Google.
- We're a company in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and UAE law governs these terms.
01Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Viralyster FZCO (“Viralyster”, “we”, “us”), a company registered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They apply to viralyster.com, every mobile, desktop and web app we publish (our “apps”), and related services (together, our “services”).
By using our services, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use them. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your personal data. Some apps or features may show additional terms, which add to these Terms for that app or feature.
02Who can use our services
You must be at least 13 years old, or the higher minimum age in your country, to use our services. If you’re under the age of legal majority where you live, you need permission from a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms for you. If you use our services for an organization, you confirm you’re authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.
03Accounts
Some apps let you create an account. Give us accurate information, keep your sign-in details secure and tell us straight away if you think someone else has used your account. You’re responsible for activity on your account. You can delete your account at any time, as described in our Privacy Policy.
04Using our apps
While you follow these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to download and use our apps on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use unless we agree otherwise in writing.
You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent or lend our apps, or decompile, reverse engineer or try to extract their source code, except where the law allows it despite this restriction.
05Purchases and subscriptions
Some apps offer in-app purchases and auto-renewing subscriptions. Prices and what’s included are shown in the app before you buy.
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID or Google Play account when you confirm the purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period and price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.
- You can manage or cancel a subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the app doesn’t cancel it.
- If a free trial is offered, any unused part of it ends when you buy a subscription.
- Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. For App Store purchases, you can ask for a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com.
- We may change prices. A new subscription price applies from your next renewal, after any notice the app store requires.
- Credits and other virtual items have no cash value and can’t be transferred or exchanged.
06Your content
You keep ownership of the text, photos, videos, audio and other content you submit (“your content”). You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, copy and display your content only as needed to run and improve our services for you, and to share it where you choose to.
You confirm you have the rights to your content, including permission from anyone who appears in it. We may remove content that breaks these Terms or the law.
07AI features and generated content
Some features use artificial intelligence. AI results can be inaccurate, incomplete, offensive or similar to results other people get, and they aren’t professional advice, so review them before you rely on them. As between you and us, you may use the results you create, subject to these Terms and the law, and you’re responsible for how you use them.
08Acceptable use
When you use our services, you agree not to:
- break the law or infringe anyone’s rights, including intellectual property, privacy and publicity rights;
- upload or create content that is illegal, sexualizes minors, harasses, threatens or defames anyone, or promotes violence or hatred;
- impersonate anyone, or create misleading content about real people without their consent;
- send spam or malware, or disrupt, overload or get around the security or limits of our services;
- scrape our services or access them by automated means, except as the law allows;
- use our services, or content from them, to build a competing product or train AI models;
- resell or commercially exploit our services without our written permission.
09Our intellectual property
Our services, including their software, design, text, graphics, logos and trademarks, belong to us or our licensors. These Terms don’t give you any rights in them except the license above. If you send us feedback or ideas, we may use them without any obligation to you.
10Project inquiries and client work
Information on viralyster.com about our services, timelines and prices is a general guide, not an offer. Submitting the Start a project form doesn’t create a contract or commit either of us to anything. Client projects are governed by a separate written agreement, which prevails over these Terms for that project. We don’t guarantee any particular result, such as views, downloads, revenue or virality.
11Third-party services
Our services may link to or work with services from other companies, such as sign-in, payment and AI providers. We aren’t responsible for those services, and their own terms and privacy policies apply when you use them.
12Changes and availability
We may update, change, suspend or discontinue any app or feature at any time. We work to keep our services running smoothly, but we can’t promise they will always be available or free of errors.
13Disclaimers
To the fullest extent the law allows, our services are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
14Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Viralyster and its owners, employees and suppliers won’t be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from your use of our services.
Our total liability for any claim relating to our services is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the service in the 12 months before the claim and 100 US dollars. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.
15Indemnity
To the extent the law allows, you agree to cover Viralyster against claims, losses and costs, including reasonable legal fees, that arise from your content, your misuse of our services or your breach of these Terms.
16Suspension and termination
You can stop using our services at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms, if your use creates risk or legal exposure for us or others, or if the law requires it. Sections that by their nature should continue, such as ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability and governing law, survive termination.
17Additional terms for apps from the App Store
If you got one of our apps from Apple’s App Store, these terms also apply. They work alongside Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, and if the two conflict, these Terms apply to the extent the law allows.
- These Terms are between you and Viralyster only, not Apple. Viralyster, not Apple, is solely responsible for the app and its content.
- Your license is limited to using the app on Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the app may be used by other accounts linked to you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
- If the app fails to meet any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app, if any. To the maximum extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app, and any other claims, losses, costs or expenses caused by a failure to meet a warranty are our responsibility, to the extent these Terms don’t disclaim them.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the app or your use of it, including product liability claims, claims that the app fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws.
- If a third party claims that the app or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
- You confirm that you aren’t located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated by the US Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you aren’t on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with any third-party terms that apply when you use the app, such as your mobile data plan.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Once you accept them, Apple has the right, and is deemed to have accepted the right, to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.
18Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and the federal laws of the United Arab Emirates that apply there. If you have a dispute with us, please contact us first so we can try to resolve it informally within 30 days. If we can’t, the courts of Dubai have exclusive jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms takes away consumer rights you have under the laws of the country where you live, including the right to bring proceedings there.
19General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional terms for a specific app, are the whole agreement between you and us about our services. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. If we don’t enforce a right, we haven’t waived it. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our consent; we may transfer ours as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets. If we translate these Terms, the English version prevails.
20Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We’ll post the new version here with a new “Last updated” date, and if the changes are significant we’ll let you know in the app or by email. If you keep using our services after the changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms.
